The Makeup
“With her personality, she’ll definitely investigate the matter if she’s found out something. Perhaps she’s
already doing so. We can’t hide it from her forever. One day, she’s going to find out anyway. Just let her
be.”
Nicole sighed. “I can’t imagine what the consequences will be if Nina finds out what happened to
Chris.”
“What else can happen? She’s my daughter. She can only accept the facts and move on!”
Nicole was sad. Nina was gifted with extraordinary makeup skills and talents that ordinary people did
not have. However, she had not been gifted with a happy love life.
Nina, I know it’s tough. Just hang in there, and things will get better eventually.
At that moment, Nina came down with her makeup tools. “Let’s get down to business!”
“Okay.”
Nicole sat down opposite Nina cooperatively, and Nina started her makeup. As Nina was absent-
minded during the application, the result was not very satisfactory.
When she was done, she looked at Nicole’s face in surprise. Oh no! How did it turn out like this? This…
This is too ugly!
Noticing Nina’s surprised look, Nicole grabbed the mirror from beside her to check out her appearance.
She was shocked to see that Nina had turned her into a slovenly-looking woman.
“Nina, do you hate me? Do you really think that this makeup is pretty on this face of mine? Those
freckles and the dark skin…”
“No, no! Mommy, I’m sorry! I didn’t do it on purpose. Let me redo it for you.” Finally, Nina returned to
her senses.
“I think this is great! There’s no need to redo it.” Evan walked over and looked at Nicole with a satisfied
look, his arms crossed before his chest.
“Evan Seet, are you telling me you think this looks good? Do you want a wife with dark skin and
freckles on her face?”
“I like that you don’t look like you anymore. I don’t want anyone to realize that you’re my beautiful wife.
This way, your real identity won’t be easily exposed.”
Nicole touched her face, scrutinizing her new features. I guess it’s true that even if I were to announce I
was Evan Seet, the president of Seet Group’s wife, nobody would believe me. They might even think
I’m an escaped patient from a mental hospital!
“Daddy, do you need some makeup too?”
Evan nodded. “Certainly! Give me a look that matches your mommy!”
Nina looked at Evan for a while, had him sit down, and began the makeup application.
Nicole stood to the side, looking at her ugly face in the mirror while reminding Nina to make Evan ugly
too so that they could make a perfectly-matched couple.
After twenty minutes, Nicole could not stop laughing when she looked at Evan, who had been turned
into a man with rugged features. “Evan, I don’t think even your mom can recognize you now!”
Evan grabbed the mirror from Nicole’s hand and looked at his dark, wrinkled, and rough face carefully.
“This is perfect! People can tell we’re a couple just by standing together!”
Nicole took a closer look and could not deny that Evan was right.
Nina felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart as she looked at her parents, who suddenly appeared
much older.
“Daddy, Mommy, what are you trying to do with these looks?”
“We’re going to test someone.”
“Who?”
“Wilbur, the grandson of Lambert from Simpson Group.”
“Evan, what are you trying to do, actually? Are we going to meet Wilbur looking like this?” Nicole
questioned.
“No, we still need someone to cooperate with us!”
“Who?” asked Nicole curiously.
“Evan, why did you call me early in the morning? What’s the matter?”
Right after Evan finished speaking, Davin’s voice was heard in the living room.
Nicole immediately knew that the person that Evan mentioned was Davin.
“Wow! This… Who are these two people?” Davin stared in surprise at Evan and Nicole, who had just
finished their makeup.
