Nevertheless, she still asked deliberately, “Is Nicole complaining because Evan was the one who gave her that piece of clothing?”
“That’s enough! Sylphiette, we have more important things to deal with other than clothes,” said Davin impatiently.
He couldn’t be bothered to put up with her drama.
Sylphiette then turned to look at Evan for support but he did not back her up in any way, so she had no choice but to keep quiet.
“Sylphiette, I’ve mentioned this morning that I’d give you an exclusive interview. Let’s start now,” said Davin.
“Huh? Interview?” Sylphiette responded in a confused tone.
Davin had indeed mentioned the interview this morning, but she thought he was kidding.
She looked at him and asked, “What do you want to ask in the interview?”
Davin glanced at her from head to toe, then answered, “I just want to ask you a few simple yet important questions. There’s no need to be nervous. You’ll understand what I mean after the interview.”
Sylphiette’s heart started thumping as she couldn’t figure out what Davin was up to.
Could it be that he found out the truth about his sports car accident?
“First question. I heard from Ms. Lane that you often visited Rose Garden when you were younger. May I know how you entered the garden?” Davin started questioning.
Nicole was astonished when she heard this question. Sylphiette used to visit Rose Garden when she was a young girl?
Impossible!
For a brief moment, Sylphiette felt a sense of guilt. This bloody Davin actually dares to ask this question in front of Nicole. Is he trying to expose me?
“Please answer!” Davin probed.
Sylphiette looked at Nicole anxiously but clenched her fingers to keep herself calm, then responded, “I used to sneak into Rose Garden when I was younger. I knew I wasn’t entitled to walk around the garden openly.”
So she snuck in. Davin had anticipated such an answer from her so he wasn’t surprised at all.
He snorted and continued with his second question, “Which hole did you use to sneak in?”
How many hidden holes are there in Rose Garden?
Sylphiette didn’t even know the garden in such detail.
She remained restless and uneasy, not knowing how to answer Davin’s question.
Nicole raised her eyebrows and glared at Sylphiette in suspicion.
When did Sylphiette ever come to Rose Garden? And if she did, how did she sneak in?
What exactly is going on? Doubts and suspicion arose in Nicole’s heart.
Knowing that Sylphiette was at a loss for words, Davin signaled for Kyle and Juan to answer the question.
“It’s the hole in the south of the garden!” Juan declared confidently.
“No, it’s the one in the north!” Kyle countered.
“The hole in the north is so small. Aunt Sylphiette wouldn’t be able to crawl through the hole!” Juan exclaimed.
“The hole in the south is smaller. I’ve checked before,” Kyle disputed.
“No, it’s definitely the south hole!” said Juan.
“North hole!” Kyle shouted.
As the two of them continued bickering, Sheila suddenly stood up and said, “She’s snuck in using both holes before!”
Evan glared at Sylphiette and noticed the guilty look on her face.
He opened his thin lips and said in a singsong tone, “Are you sure you don’t remember? Why don’t you try crawling through the hole again?”
Sylphiette was caught off guard.
He wants me to crawl through the hole now?
No one else in the room had thought of this idea.
Kyle and Juan were thrilled to hear this, and Juan cheered, “Aunt Sylphiette, show us now!”
Maya, Nina, and Kyle followed suit and started clapping for her.
Sylphiette’s face turned pale as an ill feeling arose in her heart. Seeing how Evan was treating her, she feared that he had already suspected her a long time ago. It seemed that he intentionally wanted to humiliate her now.
What should I do?
How do I escape this?
When Davin saw how anxious she was, he sneered, “Sheepy Sheila…”
As soon as he said this, Sheila shot him a murderous look.
He then coughed and amended his speech, “Ms. Sheila, you better watch over Ms. Lane. If she tries to get away, you will be responsible.”
