    Chapter 2600


    Since Nn was still not used to it, Jared did not want to force him and figured that all the child needed


    was some time.


    When everyone was about to give up waiting, Nn softly called out, "Dad."


    The room instantly became quiet. Everyone was shocked.


    Jared''s gaze showed a touch of satisfaction. He ruffled Nn''s head. "Good job."


    Nicole was also very pleased with Nn and patted his shoulder. She knew her son was slowly


    epting Jared.


    CLAP, CLAP, CLAP.


    A slow p started, standing out in the quiet crowd. As the pping sound became apparent, everyone


    looked upto find Lawrence approaching.


    Nn and Lana exchanged nces and called out, "Hi, Godpa."


    Nn did not pounce on Lawrence as usual, which had Lawrence taken aback. But he quickly


    regained hisposure and smiled. "Of course, I''d definitelye to visit you on such an important


    asion."


    "Thank you, Godpa."


    Lawrence arrived in front of the children and held out two


    boxes to them. "This is a little something that I prepared for you."


    "Thank you," Nn and Lana said, taking the gifts in a disciplined manner.


    "You''re wee. I''m your godfather, after all. You guys have loved clinging to me since you were little."


    Lawrence smiled and looked at Nn. "Especially Nn. I remember you saying you wanted to be like


    a hero like me when you grow up."


    Nn remembered his words and added, "Yes, I want to get strong to protect my mother."


    Nn''s confident look while nodding his head had everyone touched by his behavior.


    Only Lawrence, Nicole and Jared had different emotions about this. They knew Lawrence said this


    purposefully, but thankfully, Nn''s exnation had perfectly made things not so awkward.


    "At that time, no one was protecting Mommy. But now that we have Daddy, he''ll protect Mummy from


    now on. Nn, you don''t have to rush now. Just be a kid like me! How great is that?" Lana said


    innocently.


    Nn looked at Lana and agreed. "You''re right."


    "You''re both grown up and no longer immature. I''m so d for you and I hope you''ll always be healthy,


    happy, and safe in the future," Lawrence said, chuckling. He then looked at Jared and added,


    "Congrattions."


    "Thank you, Godpa. We''ll live happily with Mommy and Daddy!" Lana smiled sweetly and tightened her


    arms around Jared''s neck affectionately.


    "Since you''re here for dinner, please have a seat," Maximillian said calmly, with a hint of coldness.


    Everyone present today was no ordinary person. They were all either in the political or business


    industry. After being in this environment for so long, no one was simple-minded. Maximillian could tell


    Lawrence''s motives, and so could others.


    Lawrence seemingly came to congratte, but he was actually after Nicole and wanted to be the father


    of the kids. Maximillian would never let that dream happen. Letting Lawrence be the kid''s godfather

    was as much as he could tolerate. Anything further would be crossing the line.


    "Thank you, Mr. Johnston Sr." Lawrence knew where he needed to be careful with what he did. Any


    more outrageous words from him would only backfire on him.
