Tiffany paused when she remembered what Levant had told her about mentioning her child.
Nonetheless, Sophia curiously asked, “I heard from Levant that you adopted a child. That must’ve been
so difficult for you! Why did you want to adopt?”
“…”
Tiffany’s expression hardened. That was her own flesh and blood0! Since Levant told her to keep mum,
she could only make up an excuse for Sophia.
“I have always loved children growing up. I chose to adopt out of compassion.”
“What a kind-hearted young lady indeed.”
“…”
Even after receiving praises from Sophia, Tiffany felt anxious about lying. Subconsciously, she lowered
her head.
“She’s lying.”
Evan whispered at Nicole’s ears.
“How do you know?”
Nicole asked curiously but her question was entirely unnecessary. Undoubtedly, the great Mr. Seet——
a man of experience and who possessed a sharp mind——had already seen through Tiffany.
“Why did Levant make her lie about this?” Nicole asked Evan for the reason behind the lie.
Evan smirked and glanced at Levant. “Because he’s insane!”
“…”
Evan still would not let go of any chance to ridicule Levant!
During lunch, Sophia kept putting food on Tiffany’s plate. Being cautious, the latter did not know what to
say but only politely responded, “Thank you, Ms. Chinton.”
“You’re welcome. Please help yourself. How long have you known Levant?”
Startled, Tiffany looked up at Levant.
He quickly answered for her.
“We met the year before last. We weren’t official then, but we are now.”
“Really? All good things take time. I’m sure you will be very happy together.”
“Thank you, Ms. Chinton.”
Tiffany looked up and glanced at Levant. She had never hoped to find a man like him with whom to
spend the rest of her life. If she could meet someone who would treat her sincerely, she would live
happily with that person.
After lunch, Nicole talked to Tiffany while Evan and Levant sat aside.
Interestingly, when Nicole wanted to have a glass of milk, the two men would get it for her at once.
Evan glared at Levant coldly. “Take care of your girlfriend and stop caring about someone else’s wife!”
Levant’s face froze and he replied feebly, “It was merely out of convenience.”
“Oh, really?” Those two simple words sounded highly sarcastic.
Levant shot a glance at Evan and said nothing more.
This observation had Tiffany guessing. Is this lady sitting beside me the one Levant likes?
She must be outstanding in other areas besides her beauty to have two exceptional men fall for her at
the same time.
She was suddenly curious about Nicole and started to look at the latter in admiration.
Nicole also found Tiffany likable, and the two exchanged contact information.
Tiffany felt that her fate might be about to change now that she had met such outstanding people.
On the way back from Seet Residence, she looked at Levant, who was driving. She carefully asked, “Is
Ms. Nicole the one you are interested in?”
Levant went silent for a moment. “This is personal.”
He meant that he doesn’t like people being nosy.
“Alright.”
Feeling awkward, she dared not ask any more questions but quietly sat at the passenger’s seat and
stared at the road.
Meanwhile, Evan, Nicole, and Sophia were busy analyzing Tiffany.
They felt that Tiffany and Levant were too formal with each other; the two did not look like a couple at
all.
Sophia, too, recalled several strange instances about them. For example, Levant would hurriedly
answer most of the critical questions while Tiffany was astonishingly obedient to Levant, agreeing with
everything he said. Somehow, she made them feel that she was afraid of Levant. This was totally not
how someone would treat her boyfriend.
Just to be safe, Sophia instantly called someone to investigate Tiffany.
After two hours, everything about her was out in the open.
