“Maya had become timid after that incident. It’s been a while since I last saw her using the Maya Punch.”
“Give Maya some time. She will move on from all that and become the cheerful Maya we know again.”
“Yeah, I believe in her, too. We have to keep them safe from now on and never let anyone bully our sisters again!”
Kyle simply nodded firmly in response.
It was noon and Evan was working on Seet Group’s matter when his phone suddenly rang. He checked the screen and immediately picked it up when he realized that the call was from Davin.
“Where are you, Evan?”
“K Nation.”
“I just got back to Seet Residence and learned about Grandpa’s passing. I’m heartbroken about it. Did you go to K Nation to look for Nicole?”
“Nicole has nothing to do with Grandpa’s death!”
“You don’t have to explain anything to me, Evan. I believe that Nicole is innocent. When will you come back?”
“I don’t know yet. Who won the bet? You or mom?”
“Mom won… But on the bright side, I got the love of my life out of it! At first, I thought that Sheila is just a spoilt princess who only knew how to enjoy her life. However, she stuck by my side these past few months and proved herself to me. It completely changed my opinion on her, and now I am more than willing to marry her.”
“Congratulations.”
“Evan, let’s have our wedding ceremonies together after you bring Nicole back.”
“Sure.”
Davin hung up. Sitting at the side, Sheila heard about how Evan had no idea when he could take Nicole back, so she suggested, “Should we go look for them in K Nation? We can help your brother court his wife.”
Davin thought about it and replied, “You know what, that actually sounds like a great idea. You are pretty close to Nicole too, so you can put in some good words on my brother’s behalf.”
Sheila pouted and said, “But honestly, I think your brother really crossed the line this time. He accused Nicole of murder and sent her to prison before investigating the matter or learning the truth. He should suffer and pay the price.”
“Evan had been in K Nation for some time now, I think he already paid the price. We’ll head over and see how things are before we decide what to do, okay?”
Sheila rested her chin on her hand and deliberated. In the end, she nodded in agreement. “Alright.”
After Evan was done dealing with Seet Group’s issue, he got up and instructed John to prepare some dishes that Nicole liked. Evan planned on having dinner with Nicole that night.
John nodded, but his face glowed with anxiety when he suddenly recalled something and he told Evan, “Mr. Seet, I think it’s better if Jeremy and the rest of us don’t show up in front of Mrs. Seet just yet. You’re Levant now, so won’t it be weird if we show up beside you? Mrs. Seet will definitely get suspicious!”
“You don’t need to follow me around for the time being. Focus on investigating Russell’s death and hunting the treasure.”
“Understood.”
Nicole called her children over when it was time for dinner. She couldn’t help but frown when she saw that the table was filled with dishes she liked.
The chef had always prepared exquisite dishes, but those dishes didn’t sit well with Nicole. As such, seeing the delicacies she liked being placed on the table truly surprised her.
Did Levant have his people look into my preferences and asked the chef to prepare everything for me?
Nicole suddenly felt like Levant had turned more attentive than he previously was.
“Mommy, these are all your favorite dishes. Try them out,” said Juan.
Nicole nodded and tried some beef. It was delicious and well-prepared.
“It tastes great. You should eat up too.”
The four children were eating away happily when “Levant” walked in.
Surprised to see the man, Nicole thought to herself, Levant hadn’t eaten with me ever since the kids showed up. Why is he suddenly here?
She was also astonished by the fact that the children weren’t upset with Levant being there. Maya was obviously a little excited. She knew that the man with Levant’s face on was actually her Daddy.
Hence, Maya smiled at him and asked, “Won’t you eat with us?”
“Levant” was more than happy to comply. “Sure,” replied “Levant” before sitting down next to Nicole. He acted naturally as if he had done it a million times before. He picked up his utensils and started eating away.
The children weren’t uncomfortable with him around. In fact, their tiny faces shone with delight.
