She looked at him in surprise. “Evan, did I do something wrong? Why are you asking me to leave? I don’t want to go!” Susan began tearing up as she spoke.
“You should return home and carry on with your life, Susan.”
Susan fell silent. Is Evan using this as an excuse to reject me?
She looked at him with a pitiful expression. “Evan, I…”
“Don’t make me repeat myself, Susan. Get out. I’ll have Darius send you to the airport tomorrow.”
Seeing that Evan had made up his mind, Susan kept quiet and left the room with tears streaming down her face.
John and the others were shocked when they saw her come out looking like that.
“Do you think Mr. Seet bullied Susan? That’s not a very gentlemanly thing to do…” Jeremy sighed.
“Mr. Seet must be in a really bad mood if he’s so harsh on Ms. Susan. We’d better be extra careful.” Jensen shuddered.
“Sigh… Darkmoon Manor sure is quiet without those kids around… What do you think they’re doing right now?” Darius asked.
“They’re obviously spying on Mrs. Seet and keeping Levant away from her, duh!” Damien replied.
“Do you think they’d actually be able to, though?” Jeremy asked.
“I think they can. Those kids are freaking geniuses, after all!” Jensen said.
“They may be geniuses, but Levant is no fool either! I bet they’ll soon realize they’re in for a tough fight!” John sighed.
“What if Levant deems them a threat? Do you think they’d be in danger, then?” Damien asked.
“They’ve only just gotten there today, so I doubt they’d be in any danger just yet. Some conflicts are bound to arise, though.” John replied.
Meanwhile, at the Wicked Palace, Kyle and Juan were standing guard outside the door of the living room.
They heard Levant was coming over to see their Mommy that night, and Evan had specifically instructed them to keep him away from her. As such, they had been standing guard like this after dinner.
Sure enough, they saw Levant coming towards the living room half an hour later.
The two exchanged glances and quickly stepped in front of the door, blocking his path.
Levant looked at them curiously and asked, “What are you two doing standing here like this? Are you being punished for something you did?”
We’re not being punished! We’re protecting Mommy from perverts like you!
Juan answered honestly, “No, we’re guarding the door!”
“Huh? Why would you do that?” Levant asked.
“Because Mommy is taking a shower with Maya and Nina right now, so we’re guarding the door to keep perverts out!”
Perverts? Why would there be perverts in Wicked Palace? These two sure are something…
He looked at the box in his hands and said, “In that case, could you hand this box over to your Mommy for me? I’ll come back later.”
Kyle took the box over and said coldly, “We’ll hand it over to Mommy, so you don’t have to come over later.”
“That’s right! Mommy’s gonna be busy tucking Maya and Nina in after they’re done showering, so they’d be asleep by the time you come back anyway!”
Levant eyed the two of them. Oh? So they’re trying to keep me away from Nicole, eh? Interesting…
“Okay then, tell your mommy I’ll come by tomorrow.”
Juan nodded his head profusely.
Kyle, however, was curious as to the contents of the box in his hands and gave it a little shake, but he couldn’t hear anything inside.
“What do you think is inside?” He asked Juan.
Juan tried taking a closer look at the box, but there were just too many possibilities for him to even make a rough guess.
“How about we open it and take a look?” He suggested.
Kyle nodded. The two then hid in a corner and opened the box.
“Whoa, it’s a necklace! This shiny thing… It’s a diamond, right? I bet Mommy would look pretty wearing such a huge diamond on her neck!” Juan’s eyes sparkled at the sight of the diamond necklace.
