This trending topic, however, pissed Jonathan off. He even gave Evan a call to find out more about it.
“It’s just a rumor. The two little girls are not my daughter.”
“You’ll have to clarify it if they’re not yours. This concerns the Seet family! How can you just let it be?”
“They might not my biological daughters, but we might become a family in the future. I don’t think there’s a need for me to clarify anything.”
Upon hearing his words, Jonathan was about to explode with rage.
“Enough of your nonsense! A few days ago, the media reported that Rocky is their father. Even if you’re in love with Nicole and willing to raise his daughters, you must address this issue in public.”
“Rumor also has it that Nicole and Rocky had registered their marriage overseas. You don’t want people to see you as a homewrecker as this will tarnish Seet Group’s reputation!”
“You must not give the Yan a chance to attack us. I don’t want us to get into trouble with Yan Group again!”
“They’re not Rocky’s kids!”
“Evidence matters, Evan. You can’t just listen to people and believe what they said. You must call for a press conference to address this issue.”
Before Evan could answer him, Jonathan had ended the call.
John, who was standing beside him, said cautiously, “Mr. Seet, I, too, believe it’s important to find out who Nina and Maya’s biological father is.”
“Whenever someone asks Ms. Lane this question, she’ll always avoid giving a clear answer. Perhaps, she’s hiding something from us. Once we know more about the two girls, we can also confirm whether she’s still single or married.”
Evan gave it a thought and lifted his head to look at John, “Alright. Do it fast. Conduct a DNA paternity test for Rocky and the girls. Make sure you do it discreetly.”
“Yes, Mr. Seet!”
As John walked out of his office, the arrogant expression on Evan’s face suddenly turned solemn.
He knew waiting for the DNA test results would keep him on tenterhooks for the next few days as he did not know what to expect.
What if Nina and Maya are Rocky’s daughters…
What if their father is someone else…
What if Nicole is already married…
What if…
Dozens of possibilities popped up in his mind. Evan might be a socially distant person, but imagining Nicole being with another man was enough to drive him mad.
For the very first time, someone as fearless as Evan got cold feet.
I’m afraid of losing her. I’m afraid that this relationship would fail even before it begins.
While he was still processing all the scenarios in his mind, someone knocked on his office door.
He regained his composure and responded, “Come in.”
Davin gently opened the door and peeped around. He then let out a cheeky smile and walked into his office.
“How’s your injury?”
“Much better now. The doctor advised me not to engage in activities that are too physically demanding.”
“Then what are you doing here?”
“To visit you, of course. By the way, do you know how Sheep and I tortured Sylphiette?”
Sylphiette.
He was so busy that he almost forgot about her.
Evan had not seen Sylphiette ever since he learned how she had lied about being the little girl back then.
“How did it go?”
Davin’s face suddenly beamed with excitement, “We didn’t give her anything to eat in the first few days, then we fed her dog food and made her crawled around a dog kennel for one whole day!”
“Sheep and I watched her crawl back and forth the kennel. If only you were there to witness it with your own eyes! Her knees were all swollen…”
“That’s all?”
Evan knitted his brows and asked persistently.
She deserves harsher punishments for blindsiding my woman!
Davin was dumbstruck for a moment. He understood what Evan was thinking and added, “There’s more, of course. We’ll not let her off so easily since she stepped on your toes! She definitely deserves…”
