Chapter 302 Out of Shape

Benedict was now feeling a lot better, thanks to Nicole’s presence. She was also asked to sit next to him at the

dinner table.





Benjamin and Anna could not help but laugh when they saw him in such a good mood.

It was because Benedict had looked at Nicole like she was the apple of his eyes. As they ate, he would laugh and

chat with her all the way.

This puzzled Anna as she watched them chatting away happily. When did the two of them develop such a good

relationship?





Colton lowered his head while eating silently before speaking up indifferently, “It’s only been a day and they are

already so close.”

When Benedict heard Colton’s comment, the smile on Benedict’s face faded before he looked over and questioned,

“What? Can’t an old man look for a confidant to chat with?”

Colton saw how happy his grandpa looked and naturally raised no objections. A smile appeared on his face before

he replied, “Of course, you can. As long as you’re happy, Grandpa.”

As Benedict noticed the doubtful looks on everyone’s faces, he bluntly explained to prevent any misunderstanding,

“Okay, I’ll be honest with you. Remember when I told you guys to look for a girl named Nicole five years ago?”



Benjamin seemed to have a faint impression of this and nodded. Then, he suddenly recalled her full name and was

stunned.

“Dad, is this the Nicole whom you were looking for this whole time?”

Benedict nodded with utmost satisfaction and said with a smile, “Yes, she is the girl that I have been looking for. I’ve

never expected to meet her like this.”

At that moment, Benjamin could not help but laugh as he remembered his dad’s urgency when he was looking for

Nicole.

“It’s fate.”

When Anna saw how much Benedict liked Nicole from the permanent smile on his face, she smiled as well and

immediately added, “Yes, yes. It’s indeed fate that brought you two together. Nicole also gave birth to Colton’s son.

We’re all one big family now.”



Although what Anna said was true, it was still a little embarrassing for Nicole to have her dirty laundry aired out like

this.

While knowing well that Anna meant no harm, Benedict still stepped in and spoke after noticing Nicole’s uneasiness.

“Let’s not bring this up right now. The baby was brought up by Nicole while Colton did not do anything. If we want

Hayden to be a Gardner, we would need Nicole to agree. Otherwise, it would be difficult for both sides.”

His words were plausible as he spoke with an indisputable dignity.

The smile on Anna’s face froze and she had no choice but to comply, “You’re right, Dad. We can’t be pressuring

her.”

Nicole was touched that Benedict had put himself in her shoes and stood up for her.

After lunch, she went for a stroll with him. As age was catching up to him, he was sleepy after walking for a short

while and began to yawn non-stop.

“I’m old and worn now. I’m tired after walking a few steps.”

In response, Nicole smiled and stretched out her hand to support him. “It’s because of the warm weather. It makes

people sleepy. Why don’t you head back and rest? I’ll visit you another day.”

Although he was unwilling, his body could not hold up any longer and he nodded.

She planned to leave the Gardner Residence after she sent Benedict back to his room.

However, as soon as she left his room, she bumped right into Colton.

He lifted his gaze before asking, “Is Grandpa asleep?”

Nicole nodded. “Yeah. He said he was a little tired before this. As soon as we got back, he immediately fell asleep.”

Colton replied with a hum and continued, “Grandpa is getting old. It is inevitable, especially now that he is ill.

However, he seemed happy today. So, thank you for that.”

This made her shake her head humbly. “No worries, it’s my duty.”

“Grandpa likes you, Nicole. Do visit him more often if you can,” he exclaimed with a smile.
