Evan responded without much expression on his handsome face.
As Susan stood up, a glint flashed across her eyes when she looked at the empty wine glass.
Evan, I’ll be waiting for you!
After Susan left, Evan took out his phone and realized that the top headline was of Nicole and the four
kids being ambushed and attacked at the mall.
His face immediately fell.
After watching the video clip, he walked out of the hotel frostily and called John at the same time.
“Go and find out the story behind that piece of news in the mall.”
He completely fuddled John.
John was having dinner with his parents and he quickly snuck a look at the top headlines of the day.
When he saw that it had to do with Nicole, he immediately understood what Evan wanted.
“Yes, Sir. I’m on it right away.”
After Evan hung up, the image of Maya sobbing away with tears all over her chubby face emerged in his
mind again.
The cries and sobs kept replaying themselves in his ears, causing him so much pain and discomfort.
I wonder how are Nicole and the four little ones now?
With his aching heart, he hesitated for a while before driving towards Imperial Garden.
When he arrived, he suddenly felt his body burning up. Feeling somewhat surprised, he was stunned for
a while before he walked into the living room.
When the maids saw him, they greeted him respectfully.
“Where is Mrs. Seet?”
Evan’s question confused the maids. They were not sure who this Mrs. Seet was.
Technically, it should be Susan. But why would Mr. Seet come to Imperial Garden to look for Susan?
Therefore, the maids guessed that it could be Nicole.
Just to be safe, they replied, “Ms. Lane is upstairs.”
Evan headed upstairs with large strides.
It was only now that the maids dared to believe what they had heard. It turned out that he was really
referring to Ms. Lane when he mentioned “Mrs. Seet.” To Mr. Seet, Ms. Lane was still Mrs. Seet.
Nicole had just returned to her bedroom after putting the four little ones to sleep. As she picked up her
pajamas on the way to get a shower, she heard a knock on her door.
She immediately opened the door. However, when she saw that it was Evan at the door, her beautiful
face fell.
“What are you doing here?” She questioned him impatiently.
“I want to see the children…” And you!
Nicole glanced at the room where the four little ones were at and said simply, “Go ahead.” Then, she
proceeded to slam the door with a loud bang.
Evan was taken aback. With confusion in his eyes, he turned towards the four little ones’ bedroom.
The sight of them sleeping soundly made him feel more settled.
Maya’s little arms wound tightly around her chubby teddy bear. It was unclear as to whether she was
sound asleep or dreaming, but her cute little lips were blowing bubbles as well, making her look extra
adorable. Evan reached out to pat her plump cheeks with affection and heartache in his eyes.
At the side, Nina who was fast asleep suddenly talked in her sleep, “Not a bastard! I am not a bastard
child…”
This sentence cut through Evan’s heart like a knife. He walked slowly to Nina and looked at her tightly
knit brows before reaching out to smoothen them out.
You are Evan Seet’s child. I will definitely not allow you to experience this kind of thing ever again.
Definitely not!
He vowed silently. There was clearly a chill in his deep and dark eyes, as he could not help but yearn to
run a knife through each of the persons who bullied the children today.
When he walked out of their bedroom, his palms were clammy while his body burned up.
What is going on?
He stopped for a while and walked towards Nicole’s bedroom.
When she heard the knock, Nicole was worried for a while. It can’t be Evan again right?
She did not open the door immediately, and merely asked, “Who is it?”
However, there was no answer, but the knocking never ceased.
“Evan I know it is you. I don’t want to see you! Please leave immediately!”
She had wanted to say “Get lost immediately,” but since she had nothing to do with Evan anymore, she
felt that it would be better to be more polite.
She roared and the knocking stopped. There was no more sounds from outside the door.
