A silence ensued.
Is Evan really that busy?
Who is he trying to fool?
Susan knew that Evan was avoiding her. He had already told her about his plan of marrying Nicole. He must be accompanying her as of current.
“Ms. Muir, please give a call to Evan. Tell him that I’m dying. Tell him to come and see me for the last time.”
Her words were met with silence.
Sheila was taken aback by Susan’s words.
She’d curse herself just to see Evan?
How much effort is this wolf in sheep’s clothing putting in? I really have to applaud her for her bravery.
Nonetheless, I’ll have to reject her, even if she curses herself for this.
Stopping Susan from disrupting Evan’s care for Nicole was her sole mission. She could not fail in this.
With great sympathy in her eyes, she leveled her gaze at Susan. “Why do you have to do this? Mr. Seet is a busy man. You shouldn’t make things difficult for him.”
“In… In spite of that, I still like him. I want him to accompany me!”
“How about this? I’ll accompany you. You can inform me of anything that you’d wish to talk to me about. If you find that you need anything, don’t hesitate to contact me either! I’ll do my best to fulfill your needs.”
“Nevertheless, I miss Evan. I want Evan to keep me company!”
Sheila was at a loss for words.
What kind of spell has Evan put on you? Everything that I’ve said is useless, huh?
Staring at the sobbing Susan, Sheila sucked in a deep breath. “It’s best if the both of us are able to get a peaceful sleep tonight. If you still insist on meeting Evan, call him yourself. From now on, if you mention his name to me again, I’ll curse at you. You can try me!”
Susan was left speechless at her words.
Susan hated the arrogant manner in which Sheila was looking at her with her arms folded. Hence, she was determined to go against her wishes.
“Evan!”
“You’re b*tchy!”
“You- Ms. Muir, how can you curse at me?”
Susan widened her eyes at Sheila in shock, not expecting a daughter of a rich family to spout curses at her.
With an innocent expression, Sheila replied, “You can’t blame me for doing as such. I’ve told you that I’ll curse at you every time that you mentioned Mr. Seet’s name. Since you insist on calling out his name, that must mean that you’d wanted to be cursed at. I am merely fulfilling your wishes.”
Susan’s expression darkened. She grabbed the edge of her shirt, upset as she wailed, “Evan!”
“B*tching!” Sheila cursed as loudly as the other woman had wailed.
“Ev-”
“B*tch!”
The casual cursing from Sheila stunned Susan, and the latter stared at Sheila with her jaw slack.
Susan knew well that if she continued to call out for Evan, she would get cursed at again. Yet, she did not dare to start cursing at Sheila.
Evan did not care about her. The Muir Group would surely crush her easily in a competition of prowess.
Hence, she had no other choice but to shut her mouth as she resumed her crying on the bed.
Staring at her tear-stricken face, Sheila heaved out a defeated sigh.
She could not help but sigh again in her heart. Her cries and complaints are ceaseless! As expected of a woman who’s used to pretending to be a sweet girl!
She pulled the blanket over her head and slept, ignoring Susan’s sobs. Soon, the latter stopped crying, upon seeing that she wasn’t receiving any attention. Both of them had their backs facing each other, and Susan did not make another sound throughout the entire night.
The next day.
While Sheila went to buy breakfast for Susan, she decided to visit Nicole in her ward.
“Huh? Why are you alone? Where’s Mr. Seet?”
“He’s gone out to buy breakfast. Sheila, it must have been hard work for you last night. Tell me if you need anything in the future.”
“Were you glued to Mr. Seet’s side last night?”
Nicole peeked at her and nodded her head truthfully.
“Wow, not bad at all! You’re doing the right thing you know. You should hold on tight to what is yours.”
“I know. What about you? Did Sheila make things difficult for you last night?”
“Make things difficult for me? Haha! I’m surprised that she’d even survived, seeing that I had infuriated her.”
Sheila then relayed to Nicole the incident that had happened between Susan and herself last night.
Upon listening to her recollection of the previous days’ incident, Nicole stared at her in shock. “Aren’t you afraid that she’ll do something impulsive when she starts to feel distressed about your cursing?”
