Grinning in a vicious manner, Susan departed as she made her way over to the set.
Evan, who was caught up with work, received a call from Sophia.
“Mom, what’s wrong?”
“Evan, the Muir family wants Sheila and Davin to get married as soon as possible. Can you and Nicole
get married ahead of them? Perhaps the both of you can get married on the same day? I need to get
your opinion, as well as Nicole’s on this matter. Is it alright for you to make a trip back so that we can
discuss this in person?”
“Why is the Muir family in such a hurry?” Evan was surprised.
Heaving out a sigh, Sophia explained, “Patrick was the one who had shown up with a bunch of rose
bouquets. He had said that since Davin couldn’t wait to get married to Sheila, he had decided to do them
a favor and fulfill his wishes. Thus, we can’t delay the wedding ceremony anymore.”
Evan was momentarily stunned by her words.
Evan’s children were the ones who had come up with the idea of presenting Sheila the rose bouquets.
He didn’t expect their plan to have worked out at the end of the day. They had contributed to the success
of their uncle’s marriage.
“Mom, has Davin reverted back to you?”
Sophia started sighing again, the moment Evan brought up his brother.
“I need you to bring Nicole back with you as soon as possible because I need to sort out the
arrangements for your wedding ceremony. Apart from that, I need you to persuade your brother; he has
a lot to say about his wedding. He had lied and told me that he wasn’t the one who had delivered her the
bouquets of roses. Thankfully, Sheila had recorded the footage of him delivering her the bouquets.
Otherwise, he definitely wouldn’t have admitted it.”
Sophia was utterly confused. “What’s wrong with him? Why is he delivering her flowers, yet denying that
he has been delivering them all this while?”
“Alright, Mom. I’ll make a trip home with Nicole soon.”
The moment Evan returned to Seet Residence with Nicole, he heard Davin insisting on confronting their
children.
“Mom! I’m not the one who has delivered the bouquets to Sheila! If you don’t believe me, why don’t you
ask the children once they’ve returned from school? They were the ones who had asked me to deliver
the bouquets!”
“Davin, have you no shame at all? I can’t believe that you’re trying to make use of the children to get
yourself off the hook! Do you think that you can get away with it by blaming the children? Never!”
“I-I’m not blaming them! I’m telling you the truth, Mom!”
Nicole was shocked. Staring at Evan, she asked, “Why is Davin against the idea of getting married to
Sheila?”
Sighing, Evan denoted, “He couldn’t move on from a certain incident that had occurred.”
Speaking of the incident, Nicole recalled a certain conversation that had occurred, prior to her reunion
with Evan. Previously, Nicole had begged Davin to keep their identities confidential since he had tailed
Kyle and had found them. He had once brought up the subject of the woman whom he loved
wholeheartedly in front of her and told her that the woman was pregnant with his child. Unfortunately, she
had undergone a miscarriage due to the fight that he had with someone else after he had gotten drunk.
However, before he could finish relaying the entire incident to her, three of her children interrupted their
conversation.
Does that mean that the woman that he’s mentioned is the reason that he can’t move on?
“Why can’t he move on? Is it necessary for him to spend his time punishing himself for the sins that he
had committed? Can he win the woman, whom he loves wholeheartedly, over again?”
Shaking his head in response, Evan explained, “It has been a long time since we’d last heard of the
woman. We can’t be sure of her current whereabouts. Perhaps she has gotten married and has given
birth to another man’s child. Davin can’t move on from her because he feels guilty. He wanted to atone
for his sins as he thinks that she might make her way back to him someday.”
Nicole was surprised; she didn’t expect Davin, who had always behaved like a playboy, to have been
such a loyal man beneath his disguise.
“If that’s the case, do you think that we should still continue to match-make Sheila and Davin?”
Evan nodded and asserted, “Of course! Davin should have long moved on from the past! In fact, the
thing that has been holding him back is the feeling of guilt, instead of the affection that he has for the
woman.”
Nicole fell silent because she had her fair share of doubts.
Once they showed up in the living room, Davin behaved as if he had seen the light at the end of the
tunnel. He yelled, “Evan, Nicole! You guys are the only ones who can prove me innocent! I wasn’t the
one who had delivered the bouquets of roses! Your children were the ones who had insisted on me
delivering the bouquets, right?”
Evan put on a stern front and replied in a serious manner, “What are you talking about? Why are you
trying to get our children involved in this?”
