Resentfully, he glared at Evan. “I think Nicole doesn’t want others to know that you have something to do with her facial injury. She must be wary of gossips about herself being Mr. Seet’s fiancée and must have felt pressured by those women around you who are interested in you.”
After saying this, Evan looked at Nicole curiously. He wanted to know if Nicole indeed had these concerns.
She smiled apologetically. “I didn’t think that much.”
Evan turned around and eyed Levant maliciously. “I have a sudden thought that you can help her decompress; those women out there suit you well.”
Levant scowled. He did not see this coming from Evan. So Evan is petty because I am being nice to her? He even tried to hook me up with someone.
“Evan, what do you mean?”
“I’ll introduce some women to you!”
“No need!” Levant rebuffed.
“It’s not up to you to decide. Uncle Morris will be overjoyed if he knew.”
Seeing the malicious smile on Evan’s face, Levant was certain that whoever Evan would introduce to him would not be any decent woman.
He objected again, “No need for that. I already have a girlfriend!”
His statement shocked everyone in the living room.
Sophia looked at him amusingly. “Really? Who is it?”
Levant staggered, “She… she is…”
“You don’t have one, do you?” Evan glanced at him. “It’d be weird if women find you interesting!”
His words successfully provoked Levant. He growled defiantly, “What do you mean? Who wouldn’t like someone as handsome and charming as I am? Who are you to look down on me?”
“If you want to impress us, give us her name!”
“Levant, who is it? I will run a background check on her for you,” offered Sophia.
As soon as Sophia posed her question, everyone’s attention was on him, awaiting his answer.
Levant finally gave in to them.
“Tiffany!”
I’ll use her as cover first.
“Tiffany? Who’s Tiffany?”
Sophia silently recalled the ladies she knew from the prestigious families of Y City, but there was no memory of a “Tiffany.”
Evan and Nicole frowned as well. They did not expect that Levant could come up with a name.
At this moment, the three of them were immensely curious about this Tiffany.
Levant sighed. Avril had suggested that he should pretend to be Tiffany’s boyfriend, but he had refused. I never thought I would actually need to use her as my fake girlfriend. Well, it’s no big deal. I’m just using her name.
“Levant, which family is Tiffany from?” Sophia queried curiously, determined to dig out an answer.
After recalling what Avril had mentioned about Tiffany’s background, Levant smiled. “She is from a low-income family. However, she is courageous and also a glutton for punishment. She even raised a child on her own…”
Sophia immediately cut him off at the mention of a child.
“Hold on! A Child? What child? Whose child?”
“…”
Levant was dumbfounded. If I say the child is Tiffany’s, Sophia will surely voice her disapproval. Evan and Nicole will mock me too, won’t they?
It also doesn’t make sense for someone like me to be involved with a woman with a child.
Levant thought for a while and muttered, “The child…is an orphan. She brought the poor kid home out of pity.”
Sophia did not know what to say to that. “She must be a kind-hearted lady!”
“Levant, bring her over when you have time.”
Levant was startled. He was merely using her as cover, but now he had to bring her over?
Seeing how reluctant Levant was, Evan sneered. “What a heartfelt story. It’s a shame that it doesn’t have a main character.”
“…”
Levant looked up and silently berated Evan for giving him such a hard time. Then, clenching his teeth, Levant declared, “I will bring her over!”
