Nicole thought Evan was a loser who went under the knife to deceive women.
Naturally, Evan figured that she wouldn’t want to leave with him right now.
John suddenly spoke, “Sir Musgrave, why can’t you explain to Nicole about her relationship to Evan. They have four children together. I think it’s enough to convince her.”
Stephen widened his eyes. He knew he could not tell Nicole about Evan as it would be against the promise he made to Levant.
Also, there was no saying that Nicole would get cured if she followed Evan. Stephen figured it was safer for him to continue with the current arrangements he had with Levant.
After a moment of silence, he replied, “Nicole has absolutely zero recollection of her past. If I brought it up to her, she will definitely be stressed. She’s living quite a carefree life right now. I say just let her live the way she’s living now. Perhaps, she might wake up and remember everything one day.”
As long as Nicole didn’t fall in love with Levant within one year, Levant would give her the cure, and her amnesia would be lifted.
However, the future was still unknown. There was a possibility in which she would fall in love with Levant. Does Evan have enough patience to wait a whole year for Nicole?
Stephen’s eyes fell upon Evan. “There’s nothing we can do now but wait. Regardless of what ideas you have, it won’t change the fact that Nicole can remember nothing from her past.”
Evan sunk into contemplation. He could fathom Stephen’s rationale to not tell Nicole about her past as it might be too much for her to process. After all, Stephen was Nicole’s father. Of course, he would not want her daughter to go through unnecessary stress.
“I respect your choices. However, I would like to ask you for a favor.”
“What is it?”
“Please let me stay at the estate! I want to see Nicole all day every day!”
Stephen pondered in silence. He could notice the sorrow hiding behind Evan’s deep eyes.
Stephen was also once in love. He knew clearly what Evan was experiencing at the moment.
At the same time, as Nicole’s biological father, he was moved by how far Evan was willing to go to recover his daughter’s memory.
Stephen lifted his head. Instead of the beige-colored ceiling, Rosalie Wells appeared in front of her eyes. Even though Rosalie was no longer present with him, it brought both bliss and solace to Stephen to be able to see her.
“You may do as you please. However, you cannot bother her too much.”
She can’t remember you now. If you pester her too much, she might dislike you instead.
“Rest assured. I won’t.”
Evan just wanted to be by Nicole’s side, not to pressure her. He just wished for her to remember him one day, which he figured would be more likely to happen if they could meet every day.
Evan hoped he could find the cure for her loss of memory as soon as possible.
Later that day, Evan and John moved into a guest house they had previously stayed in while they were at the estate.
The room reminded Evan of the time he accompanied Nicole as her bodyguard on her search for her biological father under the alias of Yoda.
However, everything had changed. Evan was now a nobody to Nicole. He could only watch her from afar.
When will I finally be able to visit this place as Nicole’s husband?
“Mr. Seet, don’t be too down! You and Mrs. Seet were deep in love. She’ll definitely remember you!”
Is it really so?
Earlier that day, when Evan bumped into Nicole at the restaurant, he made a terrible impression. Evan had no idea how to make Nicole look at him in a new light.
The next day.
Nicole stared at the tableful of dishes on the dining table. It was very appetizing.
The more she indulged in the food, the more delicious it was. For some reason, she felt like she had tasted the dishes before. That afternoon, she ate more than usual.
Only after breakfast did Nicole notice how much she had eaten as she rubbed her bloated belly. She peeped at Stephen bashfully.
There was only a fatherly smile on Stephen’s face. He sighed internally. Turns out, I wasn’t wrong to let Evan stay at all!
The dishes served just now were Nicole’s favorites. Evan was the one who suggested them for breakfast. Two of the dishes were even prepared by Evan himself.
Stephen didn’t expect a high-class man like Evan who was the president of a conglomerate to cook for a woman.
Whether Evan or Levant would earn the love of his daughter was all up to themselves.
For a long while, there was only silence at the dining table. Nicole mulled for a moment before shooting her question.
“Dad, can I ask you something? When did I get engaged to Levant?”
