“You did ask the children to take my nude photos. I can’t imagine what else you could come up with?”

The nude photos were a misunderstanding! But I can’t argue about that, and I won’t.

If Evan thinks I’m a nasty and unscrupulous woman, then be it.

“Believe or not, I didn’t use the children to send myself into your arms.”

Realizing that she was actually in Evan’s arms, Nicole paused briefly before finishing her sentence with

the last word.

“You realize you’re actually in my arms, right?”

Good god!

This is really awkward.

Nicole then quickly straightened up and deliberately stepped back to keep her distance from Evan.

Well, that was embarrassing.

Before she even had the time to recollect herself, Nicole was hit by Evan’s cold words, “You can get out

now.”

Get out?

I should seize this opportunity to convince Evan instead.

Grabbing the corners of her shirt nervously, Nicole raised her head to look at Evan, “I need to talk to

you, Mr. Seet.”

“Go on,” commanded Evan before turning his back to Nicole.

He could still feel the warmth that was in his embrace a moment ago.

Staring at Evan’s back, Nicole sighed secretly as she wondered if he was really that disgusted with her.

Anyhow, Nicole decided that she had to speak her mind about her stand against Evan’s help to Lane

Corporation.

“Give me a reason. Tell me why you want Lane Corporation.”

Because my mother and grandfather built Lane Corporation! Because Sylvia got my mother killed and I

want to avenge her!

But Nicole dared not tell Evan the truth because of his relationship with Sylphiette and the fact that

Sylvia would be his mother-in-law if he married Sylphiette.

I can’t just tell Evan that I want Lane Corporation because I want to exact my vengeance on his

mother-in-law and that family of three.

After all, he is on their side.

After some thought, Nicole looked at Evan with a big smile on her face, “Because I’m part of the Lane

family, so it’s my right. I believe I can do better with Lane Corporation, and I’m ready to… “

As Nicole was continuing with her nonsense, Evan, who was sure that she was giving him anything but

the truth, turned around to look her in the eye, “You’d better start telling me the truth if you don’t want

me to help Lane.”

Realizing that Evan was not going to be fooled that easily, Nicole was stunned by his serious tone.

“Mr. Seet, if I tell you the truth, will you then decide not to help Sylphiette and leave Lane Corporation

alone?”

“I’ll consider it,” responded Evan with utmost seriousness.

I guess that’s better than a ‘no’.

At least it means I have a chance, so I have to try.

After lifting her head, Nicole looked sincerely into Evan’s eyes, “You should know that it was you who

ruined Lane Corporation. Zane doesn’t have what it takes to run the company, so you shouldn’t help

him. I want Lane Corporation because my mother and grandfather built it. I want revenge for my mother

and myself!”

Even though Evan knew in advance that Nicole’s motive was complicated, it was still quite a revelation

to him nonetheless.

“Revenge on who?”

Evan’s question made Nicole wondered if he were afraid that it would be Sylphiette.

“The person who’s responsible for killing my mother and me!”

“Killing your mother and you?”

Noticing the way Evan looked at her, Nicole could understand why he would be confused, “I know I’m

not dead yet, but they were trying to kill me too when they killed my mother. Heck, they even erected a

tombstone for me. You’ve seen it! Who’d erect a tombstone for someone who’s not dead yet or

someone whose body they haven’t found yet?”
