Immediately after his conversation with Evan, Davin called up Sheila and invited her over. Upon
hearing that it was the Imperial Garden, Sheila came as soon as possible without hesitation.
Meanwhile, Nicole was roused from what felt like an eternal slumber. Her body was aching so bad like
as if it would crumble at the slightest stretch.
Sheila was unaware that Nicole was suffering from hallucinations so the first thing Sheila did when she
saw Nicole was obviously to gossip.
“So I heard that Levant has his eyes on a certain woman and what’s more, that woman is divorced with
children. Am I right?” Sheila asked inquisitively.
Nicole did not give a response. How did the news travel so fast? But then again, Sheila is a prolific
gossip monger, so it’s no surprise she can get her hands on it.
“Where did you hear it from?” Davin inquired as he creased his brow.
“Sophia told me of course!” Sheila declared proudly.
“My mom told you that? I’m her biological son and she didn’t even tell me first! Is she going senile that
she can’t tell who is her own child?” Davin said in a huff.
“Well you can ask her yourself when you see her,” Sheila said in a cheeky tone.
Showing no intent to let go of the topic, Sheila probed further. “Anyway, what charm does this woman
possess exactly that could make Levant fall head over heels for her? I mean, she is divorced with kids
—where is the appeal in that? I remember his obsessive devotion for you—it was to an extent which
you could not shake him off no matter what.”
Sheila’s remark got Nicole thinking, Now, how should I describe Tiffany…
On the other hand, Evan appeared grim as his mood took a dive in thought of the things Levant had
done in the past.
Upon seeing Evan’s expression, Davin elbowed Sheila’s arm, signaling her to stop making mention of
Levant.
In an attempt to defuse the tension in the room, Davin harrumphed and said, “Levant must have felt
that Nicole will never reciprocate his feelings so he decided to look for someone else to help him mend
his wounds.”
“Is that so?” Sheila questioned with a puzzled look on her face.
“I’m sure that’s how it is! Trust me!” Davin declared while nodding his head.
Sheila quietly turned her gaze towards Evan and Nicole.
Nicole gave her a warm smile while Evan looked really distant—the man was obviously disinterested
with anything that had to do with Levant. Suddenly, Evan spoke up, “Would you come accompany
Nicole more often?”
“Sure! I have time to spare recently,” Sheila agreed without hesitation.
Evan was pleased with Sheila decisiveness hence he made her a promise. “I heard that the Muir Group
has been eyeing some of the Hayes Group project recently. I will put in a word for the Muir Group, but
on one condition…”
Sheila knew that Patrick had always wanted to get his hands on the Hayes Group project. As soon as
the words left Evan’s lips, she could not contain her excitement. “I’ll do whatever it takes Evan! I’ll even
go to hell and back for you.”
“Calm down now. There’s no need to go anywhere close to hell. You just need to stay by Nicole and
keep her happy,” Evan revealed his condition.
Keep Nicole happy?
That was the only condition by Evan. For Nicole’s happiness, he was willing to part with such an
important project. Any woman around the world would be green with envy if they knew about it.
“Hopefully, the way Evan takes care of Nicole rubs off on you Davin,” Sheila said as she turned towards
Davin, her eyes glinting with a hint of envy.
“I’ll treat you even better than Evan treats Nicole!” Davin proudly declared while beating his chest.
Sheila eyed Davin and his casual demeanor for a moment as she pursed her lips in hesitation.
However, deep down, she felt happy at his reply and a sweet smile slowly crept onto her face.
It seemed that honeyed words were indeed the fastest way to a woman’s heart.
“Alright, deal! I’ll make Nicole as happy as she can be! She’ll be the happiest woman in the world!”
Sheila exclaimed.
Evan nodded in response. Nicole needs to have a stress-free environment and must be kept as happy
as possible to reduce the chances of her hallucinations reappearing.
From that moment on, Sheila was hard at work thinking of ways to keep Nicole happy in order to get
her hands on the Hayes Group project.
When Nicole wasn’t paying attention, Davin took the opportunity to pull Sheila off to the side where no
one else was around. Davin then told Nicole’s current situation to Sheila.
