John stared at her joyfully upon hearing her remark.
Nicole smirked at them. “I remember that I’ve prepared a task for you to do. Come with me!”
Her words rendered the men speechless as John’s excitement immediately died down.
Evan reminded him not to mention this in front of Nicole again.
“She’s already suspicious of us. Saying those things will only make her think we have other intentions.”
“Yes, Mr. Seet.”
I’m the one who’s impatient. I hope she’ll recover her memories quickly and make it up with Mr. Seet.
Nicole turned to look at the men behind. They are definitely up to no good.
“Hurry up! Quit dawdling!”
“Coming!”
They quickened their steps and when they reached her, John beamed a wry smile as he doubtfully asked, “What do you want us to do?
Nicole’s eyes were filled with craftiness as she continued walking without saying anything.
She led them to the under-construction section of the company.
“As my bodyguards, you must possess a strong physique and a high hardworking spirit. I’m going to train you now, is that okay?”
Train us? Nothing sounds wrong with that, but I have a feeling that she’s doing this to make things difficult for us.
John stared at the pile of bricks inside with a frown. I knew she was planning something on our way here.
“You want us to do construction works? But we don’t know how.”
“No. I want you both to be a porter and move this pile of bricks to somewhere non-obtrusive to the eyes.”
I’m certain that they never did labor work their whole life. Making them do something they’ve never done before is the first step for them to give up doing whatever they’re onto.
She was sure that people like them, who always took shortcuts to achieve their goals, would disagree with doing such drudgery.
This will be the perfect way to force them to leave.
John would not mind doing the hard work, but he felt like it would be too much to ask Mr. Seet to do such menial labor.
When he was thinking of negotiating with Nicole, Evan wordlessly rolled up his sleeves and ambled towards the pile of bricks, making the woman frown.
Is he actually going to do it or is he just putting on an act? Whatever. Since he wants to do it, then I’ll let him. Let’s see how long he can hold on.
Seeing that, John was also quite surprised.
Damn. He’ll indeed do anything for her.
Since the president himself did not refuse, John could only follow in his steps.
Nicole retreated to the side to observe everything as her brows furrowed deeper when she saw the men’s persistence.
“I’m going to see how long you both will last.”
She appointed someone to monitor them before heading to her department to do her work.
They’ll surely give up in the evening.
However, when she went to see them in the evening, she was shocked to find that they were still in full swing.
She then approached them with furrowed brows.
Although Evan noticed her, he did not even lift his head to look at her as he continued his work.
On the other side, John raised his eyes and saw the hint of dismay in her eyes.
You’re cruel, Mrs. Seet. Mr. Seet has never done labor work in his life before. Look at his blistered hands. How could you do this to the person who loves you unconditionally?
“I didn’t expect you to tolerate this for so long,” uttered Nicole as she stopped beside Evan.
The latter acted like he did not hear her as he kept on moving the bricks.
“Do you have anything else for us to do?” He questioned calmly when he was done.
Nicole stared at his slender fingers stained with blood and was suddenly overwhelmed with guilt.
“Do your hands hurt?”
Evan shook his head.
“Pft! How can it not hurt,” whispered John.
Evan glared at him, which made him zip his mouth.
Mr. Seet is so submissive to her. He doesn’t blame her at all.
Compared to Nicole who gave birth to four children, Evan doing this was nothing. The woman had wandered abroad and endured the hardship of raising three kids on her own, just to avoid his pursuit.
