Did I make a mistake and mixed Evan and Levant up? N-no, that can’t be. Maybe it’s just a coincidence. Maybe Levant just holds women the way Evan does… Men probably all hold women the same way, right? They just turn into hungry wolves in the end… Now that I think about it, it’s been a while since Evan last showed up here. He probably went back to the country…
Nicole sighed internally. The incident earlier showed her that her heart and body were a lot more honest than her lips were.
Even though Nicole said that she wanted to marry Levant, his touch repulsed her body and chilled her heart. All that only proved that she would never love Levant.
What do I do? I can’t stay this way forever. I must move on and forget all about Evan. Only then will I be free of the endless pain and nightmare.
Nicole took a deep breath and warned herself. Listen up, Nicole Lane. That assh*le, Evan Seet, does not deserve your love and is not worth it for you to protect your virtue for his sake. He is your past, and you will never be with him again. Starting tomorrow, you will work hard to get close to Levant and embark on your new journey and life. That’s right. Starting tomorrow, you will be more proactive!
Nicole made a promise to herself. She still thought that the rest of her life would be happier once she took that first step. Only then she would be able to get out of that nightmare.
The next morning.
Sheila and Davin went over again to visit the quadruplets after breakfast.
Maya loved Sheila, so the former held the latter’s hand tightly and refused to let go. Sheila reached out to pinch the kid’s chubby face and commented, “Maya, you look like you’ve gotten thinner.”
Maya giggled. She knew that she didn’t lose any weight, but she was still happy when she heard what Sheila said.
“Ms. Sheila, will you be with Uncle Davin forever?”
Sheila replied, “Yes.”
“Will my parents get back together again, Ms. Sheila?”
“Yes. Don’t worry. Your uncle and I will help them.”
Kyle suddenly interrupted from the side and asked, “Really? Then, did Uncle Davin come up with any strategy?”
Sheila was stunned. She hadn’t thought of anything herself, and she wasn’t sure if Davin had come up with anything either. As such, Sheila turned to look at Davin and saw that he was slouching around and leaning on the sofa.
“Hey, Davin Seet, have you come up with a plan yet?”
“Me? I think there are too many methods to choose from. We should just flip through contemporary love novels and learn a few tricks from them. I’ll send a few over to my brother later and tell him to study them.”
Sheila’s lips twitched. I guess Davin hadn’t come up with anything good either.
Although… I guess we should let the two lovebirds sort things out on their own. Yesterday, Mr. Seet’s reaction proved that he still cares deeply about Nicole. He is the renowned president of Seet Group, after all, and I am certain he can figure out how to get the woman he loves back.
“Oh, we can investigate everything that happened after Nicole got imprisoned. If my brother really can’t accomplish his mission, then at least we can show Nicole some proof of what really happened. What do you think?”
Sheila thought about Davin’s suggestion and concluded that it was doable.
“Okay. I’ll call my Dad right away and ask for his help. My Dad’s network is more extensive than ours, so it will be easier for him to investigate the matter.”
As soon as Sheila finished speaking, she fished her phone out and called her father.
When Davin saw how serious his future wife got for his brother’s sake, he sighed inwardly and thought, I’ve gone as far as asking my future father-in-law to help you out, Evan. You really should reward me for it. Forget about the yacht or the racecars, though. Just give me cash. I really have to start saving some up so that I never have to go hungry again.
After going through a few months of hardship and poverty, Davin now treasured and loved money.
Mr. Davin of the wealthy Seet family finally understood the true power of money.
After hanging up the phone, Sheila turned around to see four adorable figures staring appreciatively at her.
“You don’t need to thank me. This is the least I can do to help. Speaking of, where’s your Mommy? Where did she go this early in the morning?”
“We don’t know,” replied Maya, as she shook her head.
