Rosalie’s portrait hung on the wall. There was a faint smile on her face. Every time Stephen looked at
her, he felt a surge of warm feeling coursing through his heart.
His lips curled into a thin smile. He stood quietly in front of her portrait.
It was as if they had been together all along.
Evan covered Nicole with a blanket when he noticed that she had dozed off.
He quietly observed her features. She had porcelain fair skin with a tall nose. Her lips were red as
cherry.
Evan noticed the resemblance between Nicole and the duke’s nose and mouth.
Blood relation is really one of a kind.
If the duke had not been a jerk, Nicole would have liked him to be her father.
All of a sudden, a thought popped into Evan’s mind. He took out his phone and dialed a number.
“John, follow me somewhere. Leave the kids to Jeremy.”
“Yes, Mr. Seet.”
John had been dealing with the business with K Nation. He had just gone back to the hotel when Evan
called him. Even though he had no idea where his boss was heading, he did not dare to question his
boss.
He hurriedly got out of bed and urged Jeremy to take care of the quadruplets. After all, the four of them
were the president and Mrs. Seet’s lifeline.
“Don’t worry, I will take good care of them.” Jeremy said.
When John knew that Evan was heading to the estate, he was stumped.
“Are you sure you’re going to estate at this hour? Did the old man do something to offend you again?
Just order me if you feel like dealing with him. There’s no need for you to rush to the estate at this hour
personally.”
Evan cast him a glance. “You need to treat Sir Musgrave with respect in the future.”
John was perplexed by his boss’s order. Why has Mr. Seet changed his mind about his love rival all of
a sudden?
Evan stood outside the estate and glanced at his watch. It was already eleven o’clock.
He was not sure if the duke would agree to see him at this hour.
However, he was really curious about what happened between the duke and Nicole’s mother.
Judging from the way the duke reacted just now, it would not have been the typical story of a jerk
abandoning the woman who was pregnant with his child.
If he could figure out what happened between the two, then maybe he would be able to narrow the gap
between the duke and Nicole.
Nicole had always hoped to have a loving father. She would be really happy if they could reconcile.
Evan vowed to stop at nothing to make Nicole happy.
“John, knock the door.”
John nodded. He walked to the door and knocked on it.
However, his action was reprimanded by Evan’s stern warning.
“Why are you smashing the door?!”
John was taken aback. He just wanted to make himself heard.
Mr. Seet really has changed his attitude toward the duke. Before this, he would have closed an eye
even if I were to tear down the duke’s door.
The abrupt change in his boss’s attitude puzzled him.
He turned around and grinned at his boss. “I’ll be more gentle.” John turned around to face the door
and knocked on it gently this time.
“Coming, coming! Who is coming at this ungodly hour…”
The maid grumbled as she answered the door. She was stumped at the sight of John. “Who are you?”
John knew he had to be polite to the duke and the people around him. Hence, he slightly bowed and
said, “Mr. Seet would like to meet the duke. Could you pass on the message to him?”
Who the hell is Mr. Seet?
The maid was used to random people knocking on the door to meet the duke. She had never heard of
Mr. Seet and wanted to reject their request.
However, a voice piped up behind her.
“Let them in.”
The man had come to the door after some time.
“Mr. Levant, you’re still up? They would like to meet Sir Musgrave.’
Levant looked at Evan who was standing right underneath a streetlamp not far from them. His gaze
incomprehensible, and he had a trace of smile on his face.
