My Wife is a Hacker novel (Nicole)

Chapter 2836

Jared went on to follow his family into the house, while Stanley stayed behind.

Nicole arched her brows as she observed Stanley's actions, a smile creeping up her lips.

She had deliberately mentioned to Stanley that they had just returned, and much to her amusement, Stanley seemed to have understood what she meant. If he did not, he would not have looked in the direction of Tia's quarters located at the backyard. At this time, he should be able to see Tia.

Indeed, Stanley was looking at Tia. Though he had caught nothing but a fleeting glimpse of her back, which quickly disappeared into the house, his gaze remained fixed and unwavering.

After a moment of hesitation, Stanley made a beeline to Tia's quarters in big strides.

Things had settled down now that Cherry had left. However, he still could not shake the feeling that Tia had become more distant for the past few days.

Today was a good opportunity for him to make his feelings obvious to her, so Stanley wondered, 'Why not clarify things with Tia?'

After a few seconds, he arrived at the house in the backyard, where he saw Tia in the kitchen preparing dinner for Mrs. Wallace Sr..

"Prepare some for me too," Stanley reminded Tia while standing at the doorway of the kitchen.

Tia widened her eyes in surprise when she heard Stanley's voice. "Wait, why are you here?"
