“Do you really want to spend the rest of your life with Levant? Do you really love him that much?” Evan
asked.
Nicole looked up to meet his eyes with a cold glare. “Yes! I’d never have known that I’ve been with you
the whole time! How dare you impersonate him, Evan! You’re such a jerk! You will pay for this. and I’ll
never forgive you for killing Levant!”
Evan fell silent.
She called me a jerk…
She’s never going to forgive me…
It was as though someone had stabbed a knife through his heart the moment she said those words.
“What now, Nicole? Are you going to kill me?” he asked, pretending to be nonchalant to hide the
anticipation in his gaze.
Nicole clenched her fists and bared her teeth at him. “If not for Levant, I would have died in that prison
because of you, and you killed him because of me! You deserve to die!”
Evan pursed his lips together as another wave of pain shot through his veins.
Am I nothing but a bloodthirsty devil to her?
Why can’t she just trust me?
Evan took a deep breath and remained silent.
Nicole continued to glare at him with a gloomy expression as she wondered what she should do with
Evan.
She glanced at the sealed entrance and a morbid idea popped into her mind. What if I died here with
him? Would I be able to avenge Levant that way?
Levant had saved her, and Evan killed Levant for her sake.
Knowing she could not bring herself to kill Evan, she did not mind dragging him down to hell with her.
Maybe we’re fated to die together…
She sat down in a corner and waited for the Grim Reaper’s arrival in silence.
Evan glared at her. “What are you doing? Do you want to die as well?”
Nicole simply closed her eyes and ignored him.
“Fine then! Go somewhere discreet before you do it I don’t want the kids to see your dead body!” he
growled, making her flinch in pain.
What the hell? Are you telling me to go and die?
She lifted her head and glowered at him. “You’re the one who should die, Evan! I have to take care of
the kids, so you should be the one looking for somewhere to die in discreet!”
While her words came with much gusto, she felt as if her heart had been gouged by a knife, bleeding
out slowly.
Evan shivered. “Is that so? Do you hate me that much?” he asked, his face darkened and his eye were
bloodshot.
Maybe it’s time to leave Nicole and Levant to their own devices…
John and the Hidden Masters searched the entire tunnel from one end to the other, but Evan and
Nicole were nowhere to be found.
No one saw them leaving the tunnel as well, which baffled the members of the search party even more.
How would two people disappear in broad daylight? Where could they have gone? Did they travel back
in time or something?
“They’ll be fine…right?”
“I don’t know…we should widen our search area.”
Another hour of searching yielded no results, and the kids came running to join the search party out of
concern.
They continued searching for yet another hour, but it was futile as well.
“Why would Mommy and Daddy just disappear?” Juan asked, surprised.
“It’s all your fault! They wouldn’t have disappeared if not for your plan!” Nina protested.
Maya stared at the tunnel with wide eyes. Does this tunnel have some kind of magical ability? Did
some witch make Mommy and Daddy disappear?
She began to panic at the thought of that. “Mommy! Daddy!” she screamed at the top of her lungs as
tears welled up in her eyes.
“Don’t cry, Maya! We’ll find them soon enough!” John said.
Suddenly, the sound of approaching footsteps startled him.
When he looked up, he almost fell to the ground in shock when he saw the person standing before him.
