“Okay, Daddy,” Nina promised.
After exiting Evan’s study room, Nicole gently patted Nina’s fair cheeks. “Nina, remember your lesson well. Mommy believes that you’ll become better after this.”
“Thank you, Mommy. Daddy will bring me to meet with the new teacher tomorrow. I’ll learn to the best of my abilities from my teacher.”
“Good. Do your best!”
After going back to her bedroom, Nicole went to shower. Right after she finished showering, Evan entered the room.
The moment he saw her climb onto the bed with damp hair, he grabbed the hairdryer. He then told her to sit in a comfortable position before he dried her hair.
“You have to dry your hair before you sleep.”
Having warm wind blow on her hair was a comfortable sensation for Nicole. Moreover, Evan’s caring act melted her heart.
“Evan, can you blow my hair for the rest of my life?”
“As long as you want me too, of course I can.”
“Evan, why are you so nice to me?” she mumbled.
“I don’t need a reason to be nice to you.”
She turned quiet at his sincere answer.
Does he not need a reason?
“Then why were you so mean to me when I just came back with the three children? You made me move with the children so many times.”
“I was mean to you back then because…” Evan trailed off before changing the topic. “I don’t remember being mean to you. What does your house moving have to do with me?”
That made Nicole speechless.
What the hell? He’s refusing to acknowledge it now?
She twisted her neck to look at him. “Even if you don’t remember it, I do. You were really mean to me in the beginning. You even called me a liar, a ruthless woman, and a bringer of misfortune. You even-”
“All right. I’ve called Sheila as well. She said she’ll come to my place tomorrow. I’ll be waiting for the two of you. I wonder what you’ll tell me.”
At that, Sophia ended the call.
Evan sighed. “Why is my mom like this? She has the time to be concerned about Levant’s child, but she doesn’t have the time to be concerned about Davin and Sheila; she should be urging them to marry soon and have a kid.”
Nicole nodded. “We’ll go to Seet Residence tomorrow, and you can remind her then. But I think you should remind Davin instead. He’s not a young man anymore, and since he likes children that much, he should have one of his own.”
“All right. I’ll remind him tomorrow.”
After breakfast, Evan and Nicole headed to Seet Residence the next day.
A while after they arrived, Sheila arrived as well. However, Nicole was surprised to find the woman in a foul mood. Did something happen?
When Evan’s mother saw them, she immediately asked them the same question she had asked when she called them last night. She demanded an explanation.
Nicole was the first to speak. “Tiffany still has her baby. She didn’t really go through an abortion. We wanted Levant to let her go, and that’s why we came up with this plan to fool him.”
