Levant sensed the disdain in the scornful look in her eyes. When he wanted to retaliate, he reminded himself that there was no point as he could never win an argument against them. Argh… Fine! I’ll bear with this for now…
“I’ve not seen her for quite some time. We can visit her together when you’re free,” Nicole said.
Sheila replied, “Sure, Nicole. She misses you as well and has been commending your abilities to raise three children yourself. Moreover, she even mentioned that she wants to learn from you.”
Just then, Maya entered the room, “The food is ready. I guarantee that you’ll like it!”
Hearing that, Davin became excited, “That’s great, Maya! You’re the best! Let’s all go and enjoy our meals. I’m starving!”
After that, Sheila stood up and followed Davin towards the dining room. However, when they passed by Levant, they stopped in their tracks.
“We’re going have dinner now, so you should head back,” Sheila said.
“See you,” Davin added.
Looking at Sheila and Davin walking away from him, Levant’s facial expression turned sour immediately. Damn it! Why didn’t they invite me for dinner? Rude!
Then, Evan and Nicole stood up and headed towards the dining room as well. Once again, when they passed by Levant, Nicole halted and wanted to invite him to dinner. However, Evan stopped her before she could say anything.
The corner of Evan’s delicate lips raised into a curve, “Have a good trip back!” As he finished his sentence, he dragged Nicole’s hand and continued heading straight to the dining room.
Levant stood in place and swallowed his anger. This is outrageous. They are all chasing me away! Don’t they care about how I feel?
If I leave now, does it mean that I’m weak?
That can’t happen. I must join this dinner!
He took out his phone and headed out.
In the dining room, Davin was observing Levant’s movements and noticed that he was heading towards the courtyard. He was amazed at how Levant handled the situation. Thus, he quickly asked, “He really left. Is he mad?”
Yet, Sheila brushed him off, “Let him be! Well, if you ask me, he should take it like a man.”
She couldn’t help but think about Tiffany’s struggle with managing the company and taking care of her child. With that, her resentment towards Levant became even more evident.
Originally, she had always felt that Tiffany was not worthy to be with Levant. For this reason, she vehemently opposed their relationship from the beginning. However, her perspective changed when she got to know Tiffany better. Now, she thought that Levant was not befitting to be with Tiffany. Even if Tiffany did not end up with Levant and had a child with her, she could still find a suitable partner in the future!
Therefore, the plan to matchmake them could be temporarily canceled.
On the other hand, Nicole felt that it was rude to treat Levant in such a manner. She looked at the table that was filled with exquisite and delicious dishes and asked, “Why don’t we ask the maids to invite him to join us. There’s enough food for everyone.”
As if she didn’t utter a single word, Evan scooped some chicken and put them in Nicole’s bowl. Following that, he added some other dishes and said, “Let’s eat!”
Looking at Evan in disbelief, Nicole knew that he was ignoring her because he didn’t want to invite Levant to dinner.
On the other hand, Davin understood Evan’s intention and chuckled joyfully, “Nicole, don’t worry about that. I’m a fast eater, and Sheila can eat a lot! Have some for yourself before we finish them all.”
Sheila went along with him, “That’s right. The dishes look very appetizing, especially the prawns! Maya is a great chef!”
Since everyone was against the idea, Nicole didn’t pursue it any further. After a while, Maya walked towards her and said, “I’ve sent the food up to Nina. Mommy, don’t worry and enjoy your meal.”
Nicole nodded in agreement. Just when she was about to start eating, Levant suddenly returned and entered the dining room.
“Why are you still here?” Davin asked.
Levant snarkily replied, “Did you all think I’d leave that easily? Of course not! By the way, Sophia asked you all to wait for her as she’ll be reaching soon.”
What?
Sophia is coming?
Everyone was in shock.
Davin pointed his finger towards Levant, “I knew it! I knew you’re up to no good! But why would you ask my Mom to come?”
