Nicole knew Evan was directing the words at her, but she didn’t know how to refute his words.
At that moment, she really needed the money to save Juan’s life.
Usually, Nicole always had something to rebut him, but she kept quiet this time. Her unusual behavior made Evan extra confident about being right.
If I hadn’t followed Davin and investigated this matter, she would’ve cheated the money off him.
I gave her two days to leave the country. Why does she still want to cheat more of my money before she leaves?
She has planned everything for her selfish desires!
I will not let her succeed no matter what!
Davin smiled bitterly and refused to give him the card.
Evan ordered domineeringly, “Give it to me!”
Davin turned his gaze toward Nicole and saw her grim expression. She looked like she really needed the two billion but could not explain to Evan.
“I really cannot give it to you, Evan! I need the money for an emergency. I’ve asked my friends to loan me money but did not manage to collect the necessary amount. If I give it to you, there will be serious consequences!”
He came to me because he has no other options?
Am I the only one who can help her?
“What is the emergency? Is it related to this liar?”
Evan turned around and glared at Nicole. His face held confusion, mockery and disdain.
Nicole knew the liar he spoke about was her, but she really needed the money!
She didn’t know how to answer him and didn’t dare look at his sharp eyes.
What should I do? I feel so conflicted.
Should I ask him to lend the money to me?
Davin grew anxious at her silence. Ms. Lane, say something! I won’t be able to do anything if he takes the money away!
“John, go and get it from him!”
John had no choice but to listen to Evan’s order. “Please forgive me, Davin!”
“Evan, are you gonna use force to get it back?”
As soon as he finished, Davin and John started pushing and pulling at each other for the card.
Nicole clenched her fists. What is your dignity compared to Juan’s life? Do it for Juan!
She mustered up her courage and lifted her eyes to look at Evan. “Mr. Seet, can you lend me the money?”
A complicated look flashed across Evan’s eyes. But suddenly, he sneered.
She didn’t manage to get the money, so she wants to borrow it from me instead.
This woman would do anything for money. Is money so important to her?
Nicole couldn’t fathom the meaning behind Evan’s sneer.
She kept fidgeting with her hands as she waited for his answer. Her heart ached at the thought of her son in the hands of those wretched people.
Evan narrowed his eyes and said, “How do you have the audacity to borrow money from me?”
Whatever Nicole planned to say died in her throat because she needed his help and could not retaliate against him.
Davin pursed his lips as he felt speechless at his brother’s behavior. How could he say such hurtful words when she is trying to save his son?
Besides, how could he treat a woman like this?
If he has prejudice toward Ms. Lane, then he doesn’t need to lend her money. There’s just no need to humiliate her.
I think she should tell him the truth and let him give the money willingly to her.
After that, she can do whatever she wants to him!
“Mr. Seet, I really need the money. If you lend me the money, I promise to pay it back. I will remember your kind deed and repay you when I have the chance.”
Nicole’s words were full of sincerity; her tone of voice was pleading. This was her only option and saving Juan’s life was the top priority.
Dignity and reputation do not matter at this moment. I’ll get them back after solving the current situation.
Evan looked at her. His eyes glistened, but it was gone in a flash. His usual poker face returned quickly.
This woman is trying to act pitiful. Her acting skills are commendable.
She is a woman who has abandoned her own child and does not care about her relationship with her son. And she said she’d repay me if I help her?
How ridiculous!
“Repay? What can you repay me with? How do you want to repay me?”
“I…” If I say something to please him, will he agree to lend me the money?
Nicole racked her brains and tried her best to think of something he would need and words he would love to hear.
