In the middle of the night, Evan returned to the bedroom from the study. Nicole deliberately stayed
away from him, and no longer slept on his arm. It was like they were divided by a sea. He was
uncomfortable with such a sense of alienation.
He hesitated before he put his arm on her body.
She froze and pushed his arm away.
Knowing that she would not treat him docilely, Evan didn’t get annoyed, and instead, rested his arm on
her slender waist again.
Nicole angrily pushed him away once again.
Evan cleared his throat. “You’re not allowed to push me away this third time.”
Nicole refused to listen, but Evan hugged her slender waist tightly, so she was unable to push it away.
“Get your filthy hand off me!” she yelled angrily.
Evan was taken aback by her overreaction.
What filthy hand?
I’ve just showered, so I’m clean as a new pin.
“If you dare to push me away again, I’ll throw you into the pond to feed the fish!”
This again.
He said the same thing when forcing me to eat.
With fury burning inside, Nicole stared fixedly at him with eyes full of sorrow and anger.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Evan patted her on the back and pulled her into his arms with force. “Alright.
You will understand one day.”
Zane was not crushed into jelly. He’s still alive.
Nicole didn’t understand what he meant, so she pushed him hard, but to no avail due to his tight hug.
Her struggle somehow turned him on.
He took off her pajamas domineeringly, kissed her tenderly, and eagerly got on top of her.
She thought of the woman she saw in the room and thought that he was a bully.
Who does he think he is that he can force himself on me after messing around with another woman?
She clung to his back with both her hands and bit his shoulder hard.
“Mmm—”
Evan grunted in pain.
Nicole didn’t hold back as she only let go when a strong coppery smell of blood filled her mouth.
Evan looked at her in surprise. “Are you a dog? I’ll feed you to the fish in the pond if you dare bite me
again!”
Seeing how domineering he was, she didn’t want to accept it, nor did she want to be fed to the fish. In
desperation, she suddenly burst into tears.
She was crying her heart out as tears kept racing down her cheeks.
Evan was baffled. “What’s the matter?”
Am I that scary? Seriously?
“You’re the one who bit me. Why are you crying?”
Ignoring him, Nicole continued to cry, venting out all her grievances.
With a frown, Evan began to check her body nervously. I haven’t even started. My kiss doesn’t hurt her,
does it?
Seeing her crying so miserably, he was suddenly at a loss.
“What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell or something?”
“You’re a bully, Evan Seet! You’re disgusting!”
Does she dislike that I force myself on her?
But it makes no sense that she calls me “disgusting”.
Evan sighed. “Alright, I won’t touch you anymore, I promise. Don’t cry anymore.”
While coaxing her, he reached out to wipe her tears away.
“Don’t touch me with your filthy hand!”
Nicole slapped his hand away and pulled the blanket over herself.
“I don’t want to see you. Get lost!”
With a long face, Evan looked at Nicole who was sobbing pitifully under the blanket, feeling
speechless.
It seemed that he must get to the bottom of Zane’s accident so that they could lead a normal life again.
After putting on his pajamas, he took the clothes he needed to wear tomorrow and went to the guest
room.
Standing in front of the window with a heavy heart, he looked at the dark sky with a gloomy expression
on his face.
He recalled how Nicole had bitten him, resisted him, called him filthy, and asked him to get lost.
He felt suffocated by the depression in his heart as the look in his eyes turned pensive.
Without asking, she’s certain that I’ve killed Zane by cruel means, and has been staying mad at me. Is
she so distrustful of me?
Because of this incident, has she wiped out all the affection and love I’ve showered on her in the past?
