The menacing growl sounded like something a demon from Hell would make. Shocked, Susan instantly
stopped crying and shivered. She sniffled slightly while wiping her tears away. After that, she had the
maids leave the room with the food.
She was intensely curious about what had happened between Evan and Nicole for him to be in so much
despair.
Back at Imperial Garden.
Nicole tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. Images of what happened during the time she had
amnesia kept flashing in her mind—especially Evan and Susan’s wedding.
No wonder she felt a sense of familiarity with Evan and was so attracted to him.
All those perverted thoughts about him made a lot of sense too.
That would also explain the tight feeling in her chest and the tears that had trickled down her face at his
wedding.
Turns out the groom was my man, the father of my children, and the bride was another woman, not me.
Nicole, you stupid woman! You even gave them such a generous wedding gift! Everyone must have
been laughing their asses off at me! Nina was right. How could Evan do this to me when I lost my
memories? It’s unforgivable!
However, at that point, she had to snort at her own idiocy. He was already married to someone else. He
did not need her forgiveness anymore.
She gave herself a slap across the face. From now on, he can do whatever he wants! I don’t want
anything to do with him anymore! Stay the hell away from him, Nicole!
With that mental warning, she shut her eyes, trying to keep her out-of-control brain in check. Half an hour
later, she finally fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, she was woken up by her alarm. The children needed to go to school so she had to get
them ready. She needed to make sure they had their breakfast and dressed warmly before heading to
school.
The four kids were utterly dumbfounded when they saw her up so early.
They were planning on getting the chauffeur to send them to school if she did not wake up in time. Yet to
their surprise, she was already up even before they started to eat breakfast!
Nicole scrutinized them closely, taking in their appearance and attire. Kyle and Nina were the best
dressed and the neatest in appearance. Juan had buttoned up his shirt wrongly so she helped him
rebutton it. Maya’s hair was not brushed properly and looked like a bird’s nest.
“Maya, Mommy needs to brush your hair.”
Maya stared at her with her big doe eyes. A second later, she nodded slowly.
“Mommy, Maya is obviously not fully awake. She’s definitely going to fall asleep later in class!”
Not really in the mood to fight with Nina, Maya lowered her head tiredly. She had a dream about Evan
last night. Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to sleep after waking up from that dream. It was only close to
dawn that she fell into an exhausted sleep.
In truth, she really wanted her parents to be together again. She was even dreaming about it in her
sleep.
“Okay, I’m done with your hair! Go have your breakfast!”
When they were done eating, Nicole sent them off to kindergarten.
On her way back home, she received a call from Rocky.
“Rocky, what’s up?”
“Nicole, I heard that you are back. You should probably drop by the clinic if you have the time.”
“Okay, I’ll head over right now. Sorry for troubling you, Rocky. Thank you for all that you’ve done for me.”
“There’s no need for that. I’m ashamed to receive your gratitude. I’m afraid I have been busy with my
company matters and staying at M Nation for a while. I haven’t been to the clinic at all. It’s already been
shut down. Are you planning on reopening it?”
“Of course! I’ll go take a look now.”
She needed to earn a living to look after the four kids now. A lot of companies had clamored to work with
Lane Corporation due to her relationship with Evan. However, now that he had married another woman,
the company was bound to be affected.
She had no idea what the future would hold.
That was why she had to reopen the clinic. It would serve as an alternative source of income for her.
Arriving at the clinic, she checked over everything carefully. With a bit of cleaning up, she was certain
she could reopen the business.
After going through the necessary procedures, she sent out news about the clinic’s reopening.
Juan and Kyle were overjoyed when they heard about this piece of news.
