Nicole’s barrage of questions confused Sheila.
Susan is pregnant?
Mr. Seet even carried her for her pregnancy checkup?
“This is no joking matter.” She stared at Nicole with cautious eyes.
“Nina scalded herself earlier today. I bumped into Susan at the hospital and she said so herself! I saw Evan carrying her into the consultation room with my own two eyes. I’m certain!”
Silence blanketed them.
Sheila suddenly felt as if she had been given a tight slap across her face.
Davin Seet, that b*stard. He wouldn’t have deliberately tricked me into coming to Nicole’s place just so I’d get humiliated, would he?
Just you wait, Davin Seet. I’ll make sure to settle the scores between us!
She huffed out an awkward laugh and said, “Ms. Lane, perhaps there’s some kind of misunderstanding.”
“There isn’t. Even if there is, it would be that I misunderstood Evan’s feelings for me. He married another woman while I was suffering from amnesia, and I will never forget this! So starting over with him is impossible!”
Sheila rubbed her clammy palms against her shirt. Nicole is really adamant to the point where there’s nothing for me to work with. She might even see me as an enemy if I push too much.
Sheila didn’t have any close friends and she had a rather good relationship with Nicole. She also really liked Nicole’s quadruplets. She didn’t want something like this to cause a rift between Nicole and her.
Sheila gnawed on her lip before blurting out furiously, “Yeah! You’re right! Since Mr. Seet treated you this way, you shouldn’t give him a chance! Not even if the whole world burns and we’re about to die!”
Nicole was stunned silent by her sudden outburst.
Uhm. Didn’t she switch sides a little too quickly? What’s her purpose in coming to Imperial Garden anyway?
Nicole was slightly baffled.
When Sheila saw the suspicion in Nicole’s eyes, she made a few more remarks that were in her favor. Following that, she stood and came up with a random excuse before leaving in a panic.
Even after Sheila had stepped out of Imperial Garden, she was still inwardly cursing at a certain someone. Davin Seet, how dare you screw me over. I won’t let you off the hook!
When Davin saw Sheila return, he excitedly asked her how it went.
“How did it go? Was Nicole touched when she found out how deeply my brother loves her? Did she ask for your opinion on how to repair her relationship with my brother?”
A creepy smile appeared on Sheila’s face as she gritted out, “What do you think?”
“I think, hell yeah she did! Nicole is also a straightforward person. She would’ve definitely shared her thoughts with you and discussed them as well. So how did you go in for the kill?”
Looking at a very curious Davin, Sheila crooked her finger at him.
“Come here and I’ll tell you!”
Davin placed his ear right in front of her, but to his utter shock, she grabbed his ear between her fingers instead!
“Ow, ow! Why are you pulling my ear? Let me go, let me go!”
“Davin Seet, you a*****e! You played me, didn’t you? You knew that Susan is pregnant with your brother’s child, so you purposely sent me to Nicole to make a fool out of myself, didn’t you? A*****e!”
What Sheila said stunned Davin to the core.
“Susan is pregnant? Impossible. That’s impossible! Release me and let me go ask my brother. I’ll go right now!”
“You’ll go right now? Fine. I’m coming with you!”
Sheila released his ear and followed closely behind Davin.
If Davin was indeed unaware of this matter, then she would let it go. However, if he knew about it…
Then she would give him hell!
Davin felt uneasy with the way Sheila was following so closely behind, as if she was an extension of him. He glanced at her and said, “I think you should just wait for me here. After I figure things out, I’ll call you immediately with an explanation.”
“Well, I’m coming with you whether you like it or not. If you stop me from following you, I’ll take it that you’re feeling guilty because you lied to me.”
Davin blinked dumbly in response.
He sighed inwardly and thought to himself, She’s being completely unreasonable!
Women are such difficult creatures, and this woman is the worst of them all!
Helpless, Davin could only take her to Hillside Villa with him.
Unfortunately, Evan wasn’t home. Susan knew that Davin and Evan had a good relationship with each other. She also knew that Sheila was Sophia’s ideal daughter-in-law and that they would be considered her family sooner or later. Thus, she wanted to build a good relationship with them by treating them with warmth and respect.
