Davin was left wordless. Holy cow, Sheila Muir, I have no idea you can be so vicious and mean!
“Say it.”
“Alright, alright. I’m saying it now – if I ever let you down, I’ll become a pig or a tiger.”
“Davin, you can’t omit the very last option I gave you because that’s what I want to hear from you the most.”
Taking a deep breath, Davin included the ‘prick’ part in his pledge through gritted teeth. Finally, Sheila was satisfied.
“Keep in mind what you just said.”
“Oh, I won’t dare to forget it!”
His answer put a broad grin on Sheila’s face.
Then, the two returned to Seet Residence. Before they could even sit down on the sofa, Davin’s phone started ringing.
Davin, who saw Levant’s name on the screen of his phone, was surprised to receive a call from him so soon. Has Levant found out something about K Enterprise already?
“Levant, how can I help you?”
“So, I’ve done some research on K Enterprise. Apparently, there’s been internal strife for power ongoing in the company between Chris Sanders and his two half-sisters. Everything started when his two sisters demanded total control over the cosmetic and skincare department of the company. Conflict soon ensued when Chris refused to let them have their way. After a discussion with the board, Mr. Sanders came up with a way to solve the issue – anyone who proves that he or she is better at managing the department will earn the authority to manage it.”
“Although Chris indeed has some experience in the industry and he knows his stuff about skincare products, he doesn’t really know much about cosmetic products. He’s no match for his two sisters who grew up immersing themselves in the cosmetic products industry. Thus, he needs someone who was born with the talent in the field to give him a hand. I suppose he only offered to be Nina’s tutor because he found out that Nina had fabulous make-up skills and knowledge on cosmetic products.”
After extracting all the key information from what Levant said, Davin concluded. “So, are you trying to say that Chris intends to make use of Nina’s talent to help him clinch the victory in his battle with his two sisters?”
“That’s correct!”
Davin did not respond to him.
Seems like becoming Nina’s tutor and making her fall in love with him are all part of Chris’ plan to get Nina to help him unconditionally.
Damn it, he’s trying to make use of Nina’s feelings to induce her into doing things he wanted her to do.
But then again, how come he’s willing to help us put on a show to convince Nina to give up on him when that’s going to ruin his plan?
What exactly is he trying to do?
Levant added a piece of advice for Davin. “Remember to make sure Nina stays as far away as possible from that guy. There’s no reason for Nina to get involved in the family strife in K Enterprise. Once Nina is seen as someone on Chris’ side, I believe his two half-sisters will treat Nina as their enemy too. If that happens, Nina will be stuck in a very dangerous situation.”
Davin agreed. “Yes, we will make sure Nina steers clear from him from now on! We won’t give him any chance to get near to Nina too. Hey, I must say that your information is really helpful!”
“The best way to appreciate my effort is to help me exact revenge on your brother by beating him up.”
Furrowing his brows, Davin was at a loss for words. Levant is obviously expecting too much from me here. I won’t have the guts to do something like that ever in my whole life!
“Hello? What did you just say? The signal here is so bad that I can’t hear you at all! Hello…” Davin quickly hung up his phone, feeling proud of himself for dealing with the issue quite brilliantly. Is Levant trying to turn Evan and me against each other? Dream on! There’s no way I’ll fall for his trick!
Just as Davin was about to phone Evan to tell him about the information, Sheila stopped him. She told him it was better to do it face-to-face with Evan at Imperial Garden, as it was hard to convey the message clearly over the phone.
“You’re right. I’ll visit him now.”
“Fine. Remember to remind Evan and Nicole to keep an eye on Nina from now on.”
“Certainly.”
With that, Davin sped his way to Imperial Garden in his sports car.
He was told that Evan was in his bedroom when he arrived at his destination. Without hesitation, he headed straight upstairs for Evan’s bedroom.
Watching his back, the maid couldn’t help but comment deep down inside, Mr. Davin is still as impatient and quick-tempered as ever. Mrs. Seet is inside the bedroom together with Mr. Seet. Will Mr. Davin have the gumption to knock on the door first before barging in?
Looking at the locked door of the master bedroom, Davin couldn’t help but be curious. My goodness, what could they be doing inside that requires the door to be locked in broad daylight?
Knock! Knock! Knock!
He rapped on the door several times, but no one answered him. That put a deep frown on his forehead. Is Evan trying to make another baby with Nicole?
