As her sister, Nina was worried about Maya.
Maya fished a shrimp chip out and fed it to Davin. Her action got him to take a shining on her. “Little girl, you’re so kind. How about you come home with me and marry my nephew, Kyle? He’s very aloof and I worry that he won’t be able to find a wife.”
Maya shook her head without hesitation.
“You don’t want to? My family is very wealthy. You’ll be able to eat shrimp chips every day. All kinds of shrimp chips.”
“Enough, stop trying to convince her. She’ll never be Kyle’s wife!”
“Are you unsatisfied with the Seet family?”
Davin chuckled. Joking around with Nicole lifted his spirits.
“Not at all. It’s just that they’re biological siblings. Do you still want them to get married?”
Now that he knows about Juan’s existence, he’s sure to dig deeper. If I can’t keep this under wraps anymore, I might as well be upfront with him. I might be able to convince him to keep this from Evan.
Let’s give this a shot and pray for the best.
Davin stared at her with surprised disbelief. “What? Biological… siblings? You’re taking this joke too far!”
“I’m not joking. It’s true!”
Nicole regarded Davin solemnly.
The gears in Davin’s head turned. How can Dr. Tussaud’s daughter be Kyle’s biological sister?
Could it be…
His eyes widened and he looked Nicole up and down. This is too ridiculous.
“It’s true. Kyle is our brother.”
Maya gazed at Davin. Her face was utterly free of malice.
“Really?”
Davin locked his gaze onto Juan. He’s practically the carbon copy of Kyle. One doesn’t even need a DNA test to be convinced that they’re brothers.
But these two little girls bear no resemblance to Kyle or Evan.
So by siblings they must mean…
“Dr. Tussaud, do you mean to say that Kyle and your daughters have the same mother but different father?”
Before Nicole could reply, Maya shook her head and responded, “No. We’re all biological siblings. Our daddy is the mean Evan Seet!”
Mean Evan Seet?
The way she addressed Evan amused and appalled Davin. Evan is known as the Cold Devil amongst his business peers. Who knew even children think of him the same way?
They even called him mean.
I wonder what the powerful Mr. Seet would think of being described in such a manner!
“Don’t speak that way, Maya.”
Nicole stroked Maya’s head and pulled her to the side. She looked at Davin with a hint of embarrassment.
“Children have no control over their mouth. Please don’t hold it against them. However, the fact is that Maya, Nina, and Juan are your brother’s children!”
Davin gazed at the three children in astonishment. He tentatively asked, “Dr. Tussaud, did you gave birth once or twice?”
“Once. They’re quadruplets.”
“Wow…”
Davin’s jaw fell open and he let out a shocked sound.
I can’t believe it!
Quadruplets! Go Evan!
If this is true, this has to be an earth-shattering revelation!
Trying to process this admission was overloading his brain.
“Dr. Tussaud, what’s going on? Please take your time to explain. Just how many children does Evan have? This is too shocking! This… This is…”
Davin’s head was spinning and he soon trailed off.
“I’ll go prepare some tea. Then I’ll tell you everything.”
Nicole quickly tried to formulate a way to elucidate the situation to him while getting him on her side. She needed to convince him to keep the existence of the three children a secret from Evan.
“Thank you doctor… I mean, thank you, sister-in-law!”
Hearing him call her sister-in-law put Nicole on edge.
“I think it’s best if you stick to calling me Tussaud. Or, you can also call me Ms. Lane.”
Ms. Lane?
Davin suddenly remembered his brother’s search for someone a few years ago. The woman he was looking for also seemed to be known as Ms. Lane.
