Levant said nothing as he gazed at her disdainfully.
The next day, Daphne prepared two plates of stroopwafels and headed to his room. She was so
excited she even skipped breakfast.
I can enjoy the plate of delicious stroopwafels while looking at the love of my life. How awesome is
that?
After a few days, Levant might fall for me.
Both the handsome man and the title of duchess will belong to me. This is killing two birds with one
stone!
Alas, before Daphne could enter his room, she was stopped.
“Ms. Ankins, Mr. Levant is busy. He doesn’t have time for you.”
“Busy? It’s too early for him to be busy. Move out of my way. I’ll see it for myself.”
“Ms. Ankins, Mr. Levant said—”
“Get out of my way!”
“Ms. Ankins, you can’t go in!”
“How dare you block my way? Are you blind? Move!”
Daphne’s yells alarmed Levant, who walked out of his room. He frowned at the sight of the plate which
her maid was holding.
“Levant, I brought your favorite snacks. But your maids won’t let me in! You need to punish them!” she
complained.
He took one look at her and accepted the plate of snacks. “Okay. I’ve taken the snacks, you can leave
now.”
Daphne fell silent at his answer.
Did he just take the plate?
This is an unexpected situation!
After brief contemplation, she started pestering Levant, insisting on seeing him finishing the plate of
snacks.
Deep down, she had decided to take the plate of snacks away from Levant once she entered his room
and deprived him of his favorite snack.
A seductive smile flitted across Levant’s lips.
Daphne thought he was about to agree to let her in, but Levant handed the plate to the maids who
refused to let her in earlier.
“Remember! If Ms. Ankins ever comes here again with any snacks, don’t inform me or let me see them.
Just finish the snacks among yourselves.”
The maids nodded and started munching on the snacks as ordered.
Daphne was stunned. What just happened?
Did the maids just finish the snacks I prepared for him?
That means I can’t use this excuse to meet him anymore!
“Levant!” she whined.
“Just go back. I don’t want to see you ever again,” he said in a very cold and stern tone.
“But Levant—”
However, he turned and went into his room. Daphne’s heart sank at the sight.
Depriving him of his favorite snacks doesn’t work!
That b*tch must’ve lied to me. She didn’t use this trick to seduce Levant.
How dare she lie to me? Now, Levant loathes me even more. I won’t let her go easily!
As Nicole’s condition remained the same, giggling at everyone she saw, her five bodyguards got
worried.
“What should we do now? Mrs. Seet is still acting this way. I think their doctor’s hands are tied.”
“Yes. Mrs. Seet’s condition got worse today. Will she miss the best time to get treated?”
“What are we to do now? Why don’t we call Mr. Davin? He might be able to come up with something.”
“That sounds like a great idea. It’s practically impossible for us to bring Mrs. Seet out.”
“Who will make the call?”
“I’ll do it.”
One bodyguard whipped out his phone to call Davin.
When he heard the news, he was shocked beyond believe.
“What? Mrs. Seet became mentally challenged? How did she become an idiot?”
The bodyguard explained everything and emphasized, “Mr. Davin, we’ve run out of ideas. They won’t
allow us to bring her back, but we’re afraid of holding up her treatment. Can you do something about
it?”
