Chapter 1494 Something Is Up
“Stop spouting nonsense! Go and play!” Casting Davin a glance, Zayden walked away with a pout. Since Daddy doesn’t want to buy it for me, I’ll figure out a way to buy it myself! I’m sure I can figure out a way to wear that shirt!
After taking his seat, Davin turned his gaze on Evan.
“Why are you in no hurry to search for Nicole when there hasn’t been any news about her, Evan?”
“Who said so? My men have been searching for her all this while.”
“But… shouldn’t you be so anxious that you can’t eat or sleep and pace around like a cat on hot bricks?”
Evan said nothing but picked up the cup of tea on the table and sipped it leisurely.
“Do you know something? Or are you certain that Nicole will be fine?”
Levant’s question just so happened to drift over to Sally, who was descending the stairs. She slowed her pace and waited to hear Evan’s reply.
Surreptitiously taking a glance in the direction of the stairs, Evan placed his teacup down. “I’m not sure whether she’ll be fine, but all I can do is to mobilize everyone to locate her. As for whether she’ll be okay, that depends on God’s will.”
“Whoa! That’s a very objective analysis. You’re really calm.”
“Do you have a better idea, then?”
Levant picked up his cup of tea at the side and took a sip. “You’ve got no idea when it’s your wife, so how could I possibly have any?”
“Well, well… This is remarkable. You’ve finally admitted that she’s my brother’s wife. Have you given up on my sister-in-law, then? Have you gotten over her?”
Levant turned and glanced at Tiffany beside him before he snapped at Davin, “Are you eager to be at loggerheads with me? Of all the things you could have said!”
“Ah, you’ve even realized that you shouldn’t be speaking of this topic in front of Tiffany. You’ve started showing concern for her feelings. Nice! You’ve improved!”
Levant kept mum, stealing a peek at Tiffany once more.
Tiffany lowered her head and picked up her teacup at the side, sipping at the tea. She was undeniably happy to hear that. Has he really started feeling concerned about my feelings?
Having arrived downstairs, Sally greeted them all warmly.
“Sally, I heard that you broke up with Juan?” Davin queried.
“Yes, that’s right. I’m now Kyle’s assistant.”
“Hmm… My mother felt that you made a good match with Kyle in the first place and wanted to introduce you to him. Unexpectedly, you guys went into the wrong rooms during the blind date. Well, it’s a good thing that you broke up with Juan. I, too, think that Kyle suits you better.”
“Not at all, Mr. Davin. I’m just Kyle’s assistant.”
While Sally was saying that, a blush reflexively stained her cheeks.
Evan perceptively clocked that, and he also knew that Kyle possibly had some feelings for her. I wonder what kind of fate is in store for Maupay’s daughter and my son…
The sound of footsteps sounded again, and Kyle came downstairs. After greeting them, he left with Sally with the excuse that they had an important social event.
“The two of them kept gazing at each other, so I think something is up,” Davin commented as he stared at their retreating backs.
“Yeah, I agree,” Evan responded meaningfully.
“Ah, I’ll be waiting for the show, then.”
Right at that moment, Levant seemingly recalled something. “Oh yes, I remember that she went to Levant Winery not long ago, and she was with a few men.”
“A few men? Who exactly?”
“I don’t recognize them, but those few men seemed to be experts in martial arts. They’re definitely no ordinary people. One of them instinctively acted to avoid a collision with a drunk man. He was agile and vicious. They’re certainly not the average bodyguards. There are surveillance cameras at Levant Winery, so I’ll check it out when I go back.”
“They’re that skilled? You can have someone check it out for you with a single phone call, no? Why don’t you look into it now?”
“That’s unnecessary since they’re probably Maupay’s men. Sally is Maupay’s daughter, so it’s not surprising that she has got skilled fighters with her.”
“Maupay?” His daughter and subordinates are now moving around freely, but where is Maupay himself? Why hasn’t there been any news of him? Don’t tell me he’s hiding somewhere, plotting something huge? In that case, the unsavory rumors about Seet Group back then were probably his doing!
