Levant was dreaming at that moment. He dreamed about how he held Nicole’s hand and walked into the hall where their wedding reception was held.
Levant later heard footsteps approaching, and being the vigilant man that he was, he woke up despite dreaming just a second ago.
He cocked his head and listened carefully. He was certain that someone was approaching him, so he sprang up. That was when Levant saw someone walking towards him.
Levant was shocked when he saw the man’s face.
“Who are you?”
Evan didn’t reply.
A cruel grin crept onto Evan’s face as he glared intently at Levant without saying a word.
Stupefied and had no idea what was going on, Levant roared, “Somebody, get in here!”
The security guards barged into the room as soon as they heard that.
When they rushed in, they saw an unconscious man lying on the floor. They later heard “Levant” ordering, “That assassin tried to kill me. Take him away.”
“Understood, Mr. Levant,” replied Damien and the others immediately.
After that, the three of them dragged the unconscious man away. The security guards that rushed in assumed that the situation had been dealt with, so they followed the three men and left.
“Rest well, Mr. Levant.”
The door to the room was closed, and silence fell once more.
Evan turned and saw the ironed and tailor-made tuxedo hanging at the side. A glint flashed across his eyes.
The make-up artist rushed into Nicole’s room at dawn. Nicole had the artist help do her hair but let Nina take over the make-up.
At first, Nicole thought that her kids would think of some pranks again to stop her from marrying Levant.
But to her surprise, the reality was the complete opposite.
The four kids congratulated her on her happy marriage as soon as they woke up. The girls even asked to be the flower girls, and their attitude was different.
Nicole assumed that the kids had finally let go of the past and fell in love with Wicked Palace. She also thought that they had accepted Levant, and that was why they no longer protested the wedding.
Regardless of the reason, Nicole was happy to have received her children’s blessing.
Nina gave her mother a sophisticated look to go with the wedding gown. After that, Nina asked, “Mommy, do you like it? If there’s anything you’d like to change, I can redo it for you.”
Nicole checked the mirror and grinned. She was proud of Nina’s incredible make-up skills.
“You did wonderfully, Nina. Mommy loves it very much. Thank you.”
“You’re welcome, Mommy. I wish you and Daddy a happy wedding day.”
Nicole was taken aback.
Daddy?
Nicole was stupefied by the fact that Nina referred to Levant as Daddy.
Does that mean that Nina is happy about staying here with us? It’s great news if that is the case.
“Thank you, Nina.”
“Mommy, we’ll be heading to the wedding reception soon. We’ll follow you closely.”
Nicole held Nina’s tiny hand and nodded appreciatively.
Just as they arrived at the wedding site, however, an unexpected emergency disrupted them.
For some unknown reason, Murphy passed out on the way over to the wedding site. The situation was so dire that he had to be rushed to the hospital.
Murphy’s men went over to inform “Levant” about the situation and asked for the wedding to be postponed. They then asked “Levant” to go to the hospital right away.
“Nicole, looks like our wedding will have to be postponed once more.”
Nicole wasn’t unhappy about postponing the wedding yet again. In fact, she felt relieved.
Nicole grinned and replied, “Your dad’s health is more important. Hurry over to the hospital.”
“Okay.”
“Levant” instructed some men to take Nicole back to the Wicked Palace, then rushed over to the hospital with John.
On their way over, John secretly asked Evan if he was responsible for Murphy’s illness.
Evan denied. “It’s virtually impossible to get close to Murphy. Poisoning him is even less possible.”
“So does that mean that Murphy really has fallen ill? Mr. Seet, this might be heaven’s way of dealing with things. I guess even the deities don’t want you to marry Mrs. Seet while assuming Levant’s identity.”
Evan glanced at him and asked, “You thought I’d marry her while assuming his identity?”
John didn’t reply because he was stunned. Is Mr. Seet saying that he was planning on revealing his true identity during the wedding ceremony?
