Maya blinked her eyes in surprise as Nina managed to remember a lot more information than her.
She made up her mind to eat more walnuts to boost her memory from then on.
“Let’s go back and tell Mommy this.”
“Alright.”
The girls cast a furtive glance in the direction of Yoda’s face before taking to their heels. They rushed back to their room so that they could relay what they just heard to Mommy as soon as possible. They were sure they had done some pretty laudable work.
“Nina, wait for me!”
“Run faster! Why’re you moving as slow as a bear?”
“I am not!”
After yelling at Nina, Maya tried her best to catch up with Nina.
Meanwhile, Nicole let out a heavy sigh of relief as she walked out of Levant’s room.
Levant was in a good mood that day as he invited Nicole for a tea-tasting session. However, Nicole appeared distracted throughout the entire thing as she had been thinking about ways that could lead her to the jerk who dumped her mother years ago.
During the tea-tasting session, she even made use of the chance to ask Levant whether Daphne was an acupuncturist and who was her master.
Yet, Levant only shook his head with a smile in response.
It was obvious that he was not going to reveal any information about Daphne’s master to her. All Levant wanted to achieve at the moment was to get married to Nicole as soon as possible. Thus, Nicole would be wrong if she thought Levant was the man who could help her in looking for her biological father.
But then again, why is he unwilling to help me with that?
Nicole couldn’t help but wonder. Forget it, I’ll do the digging myself.
She then returned to her room at a quick pace. At the sight of Nicole, Nina scuttled in her direction and repeated the conclusion she reached to her.
Nicole was puzzled after listening to Nina.
“They’re going to put on an act in front of Daphne to make her appreciate Daddy’s help and lust after him? Now, John is arranging for Daddy to meet Daphne later tonight?”
Nicole knitted her brows in confusion. Thinking of Maya’s previous question regarding seduction, her heart gave a lurch.
Is Evan going to seduce Daphne so that she will fall in love with him and do everything as he says?
Otherwise, why does he have to meet her at night and show her his face without the mask on?
I’m sure it’s because he knows his face is attractive enough to lure Daphne to bed!
With that thought in mind, Nicole couldn’t help but start picturing how their secret rendezvous would play out. In the bright, moonlit night, the two would meet each other at somewhere secluded in the estate. While Evan flirted and seduced her, Daphne would be so smitten by him that she would not hesitate to throw herself into his arms. Then, they would start getting lovey-dovey and intimate with each other.
Damn it!
Nicole could barely control her temper as her anger began to hit the ceiling.
Evan, I can’t believe you’re interested in a woman like Daphne! Your taste in women is horrible!
“Do you know what time they’re going to meet each other?” Nicole asked the girls through gritted teeth.
Maya shook her head. “They didn’t mention the time just now.”
They didn’t mention the time?
Fine, I’ll just spend the entire night watching him then.
If I really catch him doing anything to Daphne…
“Evan Seet, you’d better watch out!”
Thump! A loud noise was produced as Nicole landed a punch hard on the table next to her. Seeing this, Nina and Maya exchanged glances as both of them thought there was something not right with Mommy’s reaction.
At dusk, Nicole entrusted the kids to Sheila before exiting her room hurriedly and making a beeline for Evan’s room.
When she reached there, she hid herself at a secluded spot which provided her a perfect angle to spy on Evan.
Her eyes were glued on his room without blinking.
Evan Seet, I have to watch how you’re going to make Daphne lust after you!
After watching his room for more than an hour, the sky slowly darkened and lights around the estate were turned on to illuminate the place.
Nicole started mumbling to herself, “Why isn’t he leaving his room? Did Maya and Nina hear him wrongly just now?”
Just as she was doubting the information she received from the girls, she spotted someone walking out of Yoda’s room.
Nicole could tell the owner of the body at one glance.
It was none other than Evan.
He was dressed as a bodyguard of the estate and he was not wearing the human skin mask.
Is he really going to seduce Daphne?
Evan Seet, you’re so shameless!
As he was walking away, Nicole quickly followed him all the way to the garden.
Evan stopped at one of the pavilions in the garden where he stared at a huge round-shaped object on the ground contemplatively.
It was a habit of Daphne to take a stroll in the garden after dinner and she would always walk past the pavilion. So, Evan chose that to be the venue where he was going to put on a scintillating performance later.
