Chapter 1831 Temptation
Damien and Draven looked at Nicole and followed her when she turned to head down the mountain.
“Mrs. Seet, aren’t we looking for Mr. Seet?”
“Let’s find a place to hide first. It might not be easy for us to find him on such a huge mountain, but for her, it’s a piece of cake. Let’s quietly follow her later,” Nicole instructed.
“How did you know that she’ll be looking for Mr. Seet?” Draven asked curiously.
Before Nicole could reply, Damien beat her to it. “Just look at her gorgeous makeup and outfit. She’s definitely thinking of going on a date with Mr. Seet. As the saying goes, women will always doll themselves up for men they love.”
Draven turned to look at Damien. “You sound as though you really understand women!”
Damien smiled. “Anyone can see it except for you, dummy!”
Draven was rendered speechless.
Really? I hardly interact with women, so I only know that they are complicated, and one mustn’t guess their thoughts, as there’s no point in doing so anyway.
“Why don’t I become your disciple in the future, and you teach me how to understand women? How about that, Damien?”
“I’m afraid you’re asking the wrong person. Mingle with Mr. Davin for several months after going back to Y City, and you’ll understand everything!”
Draven thought it was a good idea.
The three of them then hid behind a huge boulder and waited to see if Shermaine would make her descent.
After a while, they saw her hurrying down the mountain, and upon reaching the midpoint area, a guard informed her that Evan had gone to the field of flowers.
“What’s he doing there?”
“It looks like he’s admiring the flowers.”
Without probing any further, Shermaine turned and headed in that direction, unaware that she was being tailed by Nicole and the two bodyguards.
Evan stood at the field with his hands behind his back, staring blankly ahead with pensive eyes, seemingly lost in his thoughts.
Shermaine quietly walked up beside him and softly called, “Evan!”
He snapped out of his daze and took a deep breath before turning toward her. “You knew that I’m here?”
“Well, I was going to go down the mountain to find you, but when I heard you were here, I came over. I saw you being quiet just now. What were you thinking? Is there something on your mind?” she asked, concerned.
“I was wondering why I feel so foggy. What’s wrong with me?”
Shermaine got nervous.
The book containing the secret technique did not mention that a person with altered memories would react this way. Could this be some kind of side effect?
“If there’s anywhere that doesn’t feel right, Evan, I’ll take you to the doctor.”
After a moment of silence, Evan replied, “No need for that. Maybe I haven’t had a good rest recently.”
Nicole and the others, who were hiding a distance away, could not help but suspect that Shermaine had done something to him or had given him something to eat that affected his health upon hearing his words.
“You can check his pulse and assess his condition, Mrs. Seet. I’m scared that his brain was damaged again besides forgetting you… If that’s the case, that would be troublesome!”
“I want to, but he won’t give me the chance to do it,” she replied. After giving it some thought, she added, “No, I can’t let him be. He can’t seem to think clearly. I must assess his condition.”
“That’s the right way of thinking, Mrs. Seet. You mustn’t listen to him, given this situation.”
“Exactly. Think of him as a rebellious teenager and put your foot down.”
Nicole glanced at them. “Very well. I’ll check his pulse as soon as the opportunity arises.”
“You don’t look well, Evan. Since this place has a pleasant fragrance of flowers and beautiful scenery, let me sleep with you for a while.” Shermaine’s eyes shone as she stared at him.
“Did you hear that? She wants to sleep with him!”
“Indeed! How shameless!”
Nicole merely looked at Evan without saying a word, wanting to observe his reaction.
A breathtaking view, coupled with a beautiful lady beside him… Will he be able to resist the temptation?
