Chapter 1410 Get It Done
“Why would there be fake medicine in the hospital? Did someone do this on purpose to get you and the hospital into trouble?”
Once Maya and Nina were done with their questions, Evan walked up to Nicole. Without asking anything, he placed both his hands on her shoulders and reassured her, “Don’t worry about it. I’m here now! Let me handle this for you!”
As Nicole looked at the man before her, warmth welled up in her heart. To her, Evan was her pillar of strength. He was someone whom she could always rely on.
“Evan, I know this matter is child’s play to you, and I have no doubts that you can settle this with ease. However, there is something more important that I need you to deal with. So, please don’t get involved in this. Let Kyle and Juan do their investigation.”
“What is it?” asked Evan curiously.
“I received a call from K Nation. My dad has fallen ill and is in the midst of receiving treatment. But the prognosis is not good. I have promised to go over. Unfortunately, it isn’t possible right now given the situation we have here. Will you be willing to go there in my stead and look after my dad?”
During a challenging time like that, he did not feel comfortable leaving Nicole behind and going to K Nation. “But, you—”
“Don’t worry about me. I have Juan, Kyle, Nina, and Maya here with me. Nothing will happen to me. Besides, I believe that the truth will reveal itself eventually.”
“Mommy, why don’t I take care of Grandpa and let Daddy stay here?” suggested Maya.
“No. I feel more at ease if Daddy is the one going there on my behalf!” Nicole was very insistent about her decision.
Evan thought about it and agreed. It’s a good opportunity to put Juan and Kyle’s ability to the test. If they cannot settle this issue, I can easily resolve it with a phone call even though I will be miles away.
In short, as long as he wished to, the matter was still within his control.
Furthermore, if his presence in K Nation could put Nicole at ease, he would gladly do so.
“All right, then. I’ll go!”
“Daddy, do you want me to go with you?” Nina offered.
She had always wanted to know how Chris was getting on after he got married. Does he fight with Felicia often? Is he having a miserable life? Since Chris had dumped her for Felicia, Nina felt that it would serve him right if he was living a miserable life.
A trip to K Nation would enable her to find out more about his current life.
As for Mommy, she has Juan, Kyle, and Maya with her, not to mention my uncles and aunts. They won’t allow her to be bullied. Moreover, Mommy has been framed. I’m pretty confident that Juan and Kyle will be able to find out the truth.
When Nicole heard Nina’s suggestion, she glanced at Evan while Evan kept quiet. He was worried that the reason Nina wanted to go to K Nation was not only because of her grandfather’s illness, but she was still thinking of Chris.
It had taken Nina quite some time before she recovered from her heartbreak. If she were to find out the actual situation about Chris, Evan knew it would be a huge blow to her.
As such, Evan wanted Nina to stay on.
“Nina, I think it’s best for you to stay here and look after your mother. This way, I will feel better.”
“Maya can take care of Mommy. There are so many people who can look after Mommy. They’ll be fine without me.”
“But you are your mommy’s daughter. You are the apple of her eye. You should stay here.”
“Mommy is Grandpa’s daughter too. At a time like this, I’m sure Mommy wants to be there for him. If I go, I am also helping her! Mommy, what do you think?”
Nicole was in a dilemma. She had the same concern as Evan. In the end, she made the decision and asked Nina to stay on with her.
Why are they trying to stop me from going to K Nation? Why? Are they worried that I will see Chris again? All I want to do is to see him get his retribution. That’s all! Since Daddy and Mommy won’t allow me to go, I will pretend to obey them first. Later on, I will find a way and go there on my own.
“I understand, Daddy. I will stay here with Mommy.”
“Good! Juan, Kyle, I’ll let you guys handle this matter. I don’t care how you plan to do your investigation. I only have one request, and you two must get it done!”
