Yoda was really getting on his nerves.

Davin returned to the living room, looked at the four kids and Nicole, saying, “There’s something off

about Yoda. I felt it when I was near him just now.”

“What’s the problem?” Nicole asked out of curiosity.

Sheila and the kids also widened their eyes and stared at him.

He glanced in the yard’s direction and said mysteriously, “He doesn’t look like a good guy.”

The four children immediately rolled their eyes at him upon hearing that.

Kyle refuted, “You’re judging a book by its cover.”

“I think you’re the bad guy here,” said Juan.

“That’s right; you’re the bad guy here. Hmph!” Nina harrumphed.

“Uncle Davin, y-you…” Maya was at a loss for words.

The young girl couldn’t come up with anything to say, so she balled her fists up instead. “H-He’s a good

guy!”

Davin was stunned by their response.

I was their favorite before Yoda appeared. How in the world did Yoda replace my place in their hearts in

such a short period of time?

He turned to face Nicole and said, “Look, Nicole, he won the kids over in such a short period of time.

People like him are extremely dangerous. You must be wary of him.”

Nicole gave it some thought and decided that what Davin said had, in some way, made some sense.

Yoda did seem too nice to her kids.

It didn’t make sense to her that Yoda would go so far for them when they had only met by chance.

Could it be that Yoda has a hidden agenda?

After dinner, Nicole took special notice of how Yoda interacted with her four children.

The way he helped Kyle and Juan build Legos reminded her of the past.

He also had a habit of cleaning up the Legos one color at a time, just like Evan used to do.

Except for his face and his temperament, certain behaviors of his were very similar to Evan’s.

Yoda also treated her four children well in her husband’s place.

Is this all just a coincidence or something more?

Nicole fell deep into thought.

She suddenly called out to Yoda when he was done cleaning up the Legos. He was walking out of the

toy room when he heard her.

Yoda stood motionless as he waited for Nicole’s instructions.

“Come with me.”

Yoda followed her into Evan’s study.

He stood respectfully before the study table.

Nicole took out a magazine and showed him Evan’s photo.

“Don’t you think he’s a lot like you, except for his face?”

Yoda took one look at the photo and shook his head.

“You don’t think so?” Nicole asked.

Yoda took out his phone and typed: I’ve never met him, I don’t know.

Nicole scowled. Don’t know?

She suddenly hit the picture of Evan in the magazine.

“He failed to keep his word, broke his promise, and abandoned his wife and children. Don’t you think he

deserves a beating?”

She scrutinized Yoda’s facial expression as she spoke. He seemed to be very calm and didn’t say a

word.

His eyes remained emotionless throughout her outburst.

Nicole kept her eyes peeled on him all this while, but she couldn’t find any telltale signs of him lying.

Am I overthinking?

Yoda’s not him?

Right, he’s forever gone…

Her heart ached upon that thought, and she lost her balance and fell.

Just as she thought she was about to fall face-first onto the ground, a strong arm suddenly pulled her

into an embrace.

She could hear his heartbeat as she leaned against his firm chest. The feeling was oh-so-familiar. It

was exactly how she felt when she was with Evan.

She quickly pushed Yoda away when she realized it was him.

This is not Evan. No, it’s not him…

She calmed herself down and told Yoda to return to his room and rest.

The man nodded and walked out of the study. His heart ached for her when he turned around and saw

Nicole in a state of panic.

However, he turned around, clenched his fists, and walked away.

Nicole waited till she had calmed down before returning to her room dejectedly.

The next day, Levant was waiting for her at Lane Corporation again.
