A look of joy appeared on Nina’s proud face as she secretly thought, Having a rich daddy is so much better than expected.
“Do you like this place?” Evan looked at Nicole and asked.
With her eyes on the huge villa, Nicole nodded her head with a serious expression. She had never thought that she could live in such a house before.
While walking in the villa, she felt surreal, as if she were dreaming.
Looking at her earnestly, Evan noticed a trace of worry in her eyes, and asked her, “What’s wrong?”
Nicole did have something on her mind as she had been wondering, What would Evan do to Zane?
When she voiced her doubt, Evan was silent for a while without giving her any answer. Instead, he changed the subject. “Let’s go and see the kids.”
Then, he walked upstairs.
Nicole stood rooted to the spot in silence. Will Evan use some particularly cruel methods to kill Zane?
Humans were emotional beings.
After all, Zane’s blood was flowing in her veins. It was impossible to say that she felt nothing after knowing his impending death.
Should I tell Zane and ask him to leave?
However, Zane has escaped for so many years, while Julia has died in vain for so long. Should I condone his actions by asking him to escape?
How should I choose between family and justice?
Nicole was caught in a dilemma.
In a blink of an eye, the color of the night enveloped the entire sky, turning it pitch black.
Nicole was about to start cooking when her phone rang.
Seeing that it was an unknown number, she hesitated for a moment before answering it.
“Who is this?”
“Nicole, you’re so cruel! You actually let Evan do this to dad. Are you happy now that dad has died so tragically?”
It was the voice of Sylphiette.
Speechless, Nicole was confused. “What are you talking about, Sylphiette?”
“Still playing dumb? It’s all over the news! Even if Dad has wronged you, you shouldn’t have let him die like that!”
Nicole immediately checked the news and saw an article about the latest car accident, which was absolutely horrific.
It was reported that the deceased was repeatedly run over and crushed into jelly.
There was also a picture of the mass of bleeding flesh, causing Nicole’s heart to jump wildly.
Is the deceased Zane?
Did Evan kill him?
She recalled Evan’s silence when asked what he would do to Zane.
It turns out that he has already taken care of him.
That’s fast!
Nicole was stupefied for quite a while as she felt her heart aching. Then, she got up to walk back to the bedroom and locked the door with a click.
“Mommy, when do we eat?”
“I’m hungry, Mommy.”
“Is there meat for dinner, Mommy?”
The kids banged on the door and shouted, but Nicole ignored them.
With Evan here, the kids would not be starved, but she needed time to calm down.
After all, Zane’s death was too sudden and tragic…
Seeing that there was no response, the kids immediately went to Evan.
“Daddy, has Mommy fallen asleep?”
“Yeah. She ignored us even though we banged on the door.”
Sensing that something was wrong, Evan went to the bedroom. When he was about to knock on the door, he suddenly received a call from Jonathan.
“You did a good job in this, Evan.”
“What are you talking about, Dad?”
“It serves Zane right!”
Evan was baffled and didn’t know what was going on until he saw the scene of the car accident on the news headline.
But I still don’t know how to deal with Zane yet. Why did he—
It’s not my doing.
So who exactly did this?
Looking up, he stared at the closed bedroom door, guessing that Nicole must have seen the news.
Does she also think that I’m the one who kills Zane?
A wave of panic suddenly came over Evan.
“Why don’t you knock on the door, Daddy?”
Evan looked at the kids. “Go and play first. I have something to say to Mommy.”
The kids looked at each other, nodded their heads, and walked to the playroom.
