Chapter 1328
"Why are you asking such a question out of the blue?” Sean looked at Nicole shyly.
The look in his eyes was telling her that there were outsiders present.
However, Nicole was not bothered by that, and proceeded with her questions. "It's just because I care about you. Come on, tell me about it."
"There's none. How would I find the time to date anyone when I’m so occupied with work?" Sean explained himself to Nicole.
"Sean, you're not that young anymore. Isn't it time to find yourself a partner? " Gloria suggested.
"Mom, don't listen to Nicole. I have my own plans.” Sean tried to comfort Gloria.
"What are your plans? As far as I'm concerned, you've rejected all the blind dates I've arranged for you. You've always said that you'll be bringing a girlfriend home soon. And yet? I haven't seen you getting together with anyone up till today!" Daniel butted in, as he had overheard the discussion.
With the pressure on him mounting, the more they talked about it, Sean glared at Nicole. ‘It's all because of her questions that everyone's eyes are now on me.’
"Mom, dad. If I must be honest, Sean is actually dating someone currently," Steve interrupted.
Sean looked at Steve in shock. ‘Since when have I dated anyone?’ 'Why is he making stuff up?’
"Steve Riddle.” Sean was about to interrupt Steve when he saw the glint in Steve's eyes.
"Brother, you don't have to keep it a secret anymore. Just come clean with mom and dad.” Steve gave Sean a wink and signaled him to follow through with the lie.
Sean gulped and quickly thought of something, "Since the cat is already out of the bag, I guess I shouldn't hide it anymore.”
"Nicole, how are things with Martin?" Sean took the opportunity to change the topic of conversation once there was a pause.
"Martin? The production on his side has gotten back on track." Nicole replied to Sean.
Sean sighed. "I've never thought that the factory would be on fire."
"It's fine," Nicole said. "All of this is in the past.”
"Have you discovered the reason behind it?" Daniel asked Nicole.
"Not yet. It is still under investigation,” Nicole replied, unable to reveal certain details to them.
"Why is it taking so long?" Daniel asked, puzzled.
