Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1074 Returning to the Gould Family

The color of the gemstone was highly pure, and it sparkled brightly under the sunlight, shining beautifully. Even though Nicole knew that this stone was priceless, she didn't return it and pursed her lips, accepting with a nod. "Thank you, Grandpa."

When Benedict saw that she didn't show any dislike toward it, he chuckled heartily and his aged face was folded with wrinkles. Then, he sighed. "I was wrong in the past, but now, my only wish is for you and Colton to be happy together."

Nodding, she sincerely said, "Thank you, Grandpa."

With nothing more to say after giving her the present, Benedict left with the help of the walking stick. Initially, Nicole wanted to help him back, but the stubborn old man turned her down. Hence, she saw him off before returning to her room.

Anna had been so busy these days with the wedding preparations that she was barely at home. The news that the Gardners and the Wrenns were going to be relatives spread out in Lumore like a bushfire. One was the most influential family in the country while the other owned one of the biggest companies in the world, and this marriage of the century would inevitably make the two families even stronger. Three days before the wedding, Nicole had to pack her stuff and move into the Gould Residence for a few days because of the agreement with Rita.

When Colton held her in his arms, reluctant to see her go, only then did she realize that this man had this side of him. Giggling softly, she sighed and said, "It's not like I'm not coming back again. I'm just staying there for a couple of days. Come and pick me up on our wedding day."

"Okay," he answered.

Colton was the one who drove her to the Gould Residence. Today, Rita looked exceptionally vibrant in a dark blue long dress and impeccable hair. Besides Siobhan, Jackson and Gabriel were there as well. The whole time, Nicole maintained a good mannerism on her face and greeted everyone politely, albeit sounding a little formal. A look of disappointment flashed over Siobhan's eyes, but she didn't say anything about it.

Noticing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Gabriel stepped forward and gently said, "You're getting married to Colton in three days, Nicole. Just live here during this period. Dad, Mom, and I will be around, and you can come to us directly if you need anything."

Nicole had always thought of Gabriel as an amicable person carrying the elegance of an upperclassman with a touch of toughness he gained from military training. Smiling, she nodded in reply. "Okay. Thank you, Mr. Wrenn."
