Evan was a little disappointed and let out an inaudible sigh.
It’s fine if she doesn’t want to be with me now. When the time is right, I’m sure she’ll come back to me.
“Let’s sleep now. The weather’s getting cold. Here, keep yourself warm with the blanket.”
His deep and thick voice was so calming that it warmed her heart.
After covering her with the blanket, he wished her goodnight.
Having someone sharing her bed made it difficult for her to sleep. She tried keeping her eyes shut, but
her heart was still thumping in her chest.
At first, Nicole thought she would not sleep in peace because she kept reminding herself to stay on
guard.
In the end, she managed to sleep like a log and even had a sweet dream.
She slept through the night, and by the time she woke up, the bright morning sun had already shone
into the room.
Nicole looked around and noticed the other side of the bed empty.
She picked up her watch, checked the time, and was shocked to see that it was already 9 a.m.
“But how come the kids are so quiet? Are they still asleep? They’re going to be late for school!”
She immediately hopped out of bed and ran to their bedroom.
Oh? They’re not around.
She went back to her room and gave Evan a call.
“Hi Mr. Seet, did you send the kids to school?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it. You can find your breakfast in the microwave oven.”
He made me breakfast too?
Nicole was touched by his gestures.
All these years, she had single-handedly taken care of the little ones through thick and thin. For once, it
felt great to be taken care of.
After ending the call, she freshened up and enjoyed the breakfast he prepared. All of a sudden, she
recalled something that had happened last night.
While she was almost asleep, she knew someone covered her with the blanket. She also felt someone
whispered something into her ears but did not hear it clearly.
Despite all of that, she admittedly had a good sleep last night and had not felt so at ease and safe for a
very long time.
Her lips unwittingly curled into a smile.
After breakfast, she went straight to Lane Corporation.
The moment she stepped into the office, her new assistant approached her with a big grin, “Ms. Lane,
Lane Corporation is trending on social media now. It’ll be good for our business.”
“And the media have also reported on your relationship with Mr. Seet. From now on, no one would dare
to oppress us anymore.”
Nicole looked confused and did not understand a word she said.
Since she woke up late this morning and came straight to the office, she did not have time to check any
updates on social media.
She immediately took out her phone and went through the social media platform.
Her relationship with Evan was one of the trending topics of the day, and the story came with an eye-
catching headline and photos.
‘Seet Group President Supports Lane Corporation – The Shocking Secret Behind’
‘Seet Group President’s New Fave Is Her!’
‘Mr. Seet and Ms. Lane went to a dessert store with four children. According to sources, Mr. Seet is the
biological father to all the children.’
‘Bright Future Ahead: Lane Corporation Riding On Seet Corporation’s Coattails’
…
There were also photos of her walking out of Seet Group’s building, Evan visiting Summervale, and
them enjoying desserts with the four children.
She did not expect news about her and Lane Corporation could make it to the list of the trending topics
of the day.
What would Evan and the Seet family think of this when they saw all these?
Will he think that I orchestrated all this to get the media’s attention?
Now that the damage was done, she thought it was best for her to give Evan a call. She hoped he
could order someone to remove all these posts from social media.
Yet, upon receiving her call, Evan told her that he had no intention of removing the posts. On the
contrary, he advised her not to be bothered by all these.
People would eventually forget about this, he said.
After ending the call, Nicole let out a sigh.
She was relieved that Evan was not bothered by these posts. To her, it was not a big problem as well.
After all, news like this could boost Lane Corporation’s business.
Moreover, Evan was the father to all four children anyway, so technically, it was not a rumor.
