Since Evan is great at creating nicknames, why doesn’t he make one for himself?
Nicole could not be bothered with him. Later on, it should be Juan’s decision who he wanted to be with and not Evan’s.
She believed that Juan would be willing to stay with her.
Evan’s gaze darkened as he watched Nicole pace up and down the corridor uneasily.
This woman is pretending to be a good mother again.
After cruelly abandoning Kyle, how much better can she treat Juan?
She probably dotes on her two other weird daughters more.
With that thought, Even could not help but glower at Nicole.
She turned her head and was met with his angry gaze. Since she did not dare to express the anger that she felt, she could only mirror his actions by glaring at him too.
B*tch, how dare she stares at me like this?
We’ll see how this all ends!
After a long wait, the doors to the operating room finally opened.
They wheeled a kid out of the room on a hospital bed. He was covered in bandages.
The married couple rushed forward to the bed. With one glance at her kid, the woman wailed, “My poor son, don’t you dare run around on your own in the future.”
The doctor looked at the parental consent form and called out, “Evan Seet? Mr. Seet, your son’s operation is a success. He can be moved to the ward now.”
Evan hurriedly walked over to the doctor while Nicole followed right behind him. Both of them looked at the boy lying on the hospital bed.
That’s not Juan…
After the married couple heard the doctor’s words, they raised their heads and gave strange looks at Evan.
At that moment, Nicole’s phone rang. It was Maya.
She answered immediately.
“Mommy, why are you not back yet? Juan is already home. What time will you come back?”
“Juan is back at home?”
Nicole lifted her gaze and looked at Evan, who froze at those words.
Following that, they heard the couple complaining to the side.
“Why are you pretending to be the boy’s parent?”
“Exactly! He is our son. Who are you?”
Pretending to be the boy’s parent?
Surprised, Davin looked at Evan. Who would expect a president of such a large corporation to make a mistake like this?
How could he mistake someone else’s son for his because he was so worried as a father?
Tsk, he even confidently scolded Ms. Lane earlier and blamed Juan’s ‘car accident’ on her. But in the end…
The truth is… Evan made a mistake.
“Pfft!” Davin could not hold back his laughter anymore.
However, when he met Evan’s icy cold gaze, he instantly bowed his head and kept quiet.
Stuck in the situation, John quickly explained to the couple on Evan’s behalf.
Nicole could see that behind Evan’s cold and arrogant front, he was embarrassed but was pretending to be calm. It made her want to vent her anger on him.
He made me worry and even acted all high and mighty, not to mention making such harsh remarks and pushing all the blame on me.
I think it’s justified for me to take it out on him!
Nicole glanced at him and sneered.
“Oh no, apparently Mr. Seet makes mistakes too.”
Already embarrassed, Evan’s face fell when Nicole ridiculed him.
“Juan is fine, but you framed me for things that did not happen. Mr. Seet, shouldn’t you apologize to me?”
Apologize to you?
Evan’s eyes narrowed. How dare she demand an apology?
Who gave her the right to?
“Count yourself lucky this time. If something did happen to Juan, do you think I would have let you off easily?”
With that, he shot Nicole a look and turned to leave.
Nicole rolled her eyes as she watched him walk away.
He won’t even admit when he is in the wrong.
Who does he think he is?
Davin walked over and wanted her to chase after him.
“You want me to chase after him? Are you joking?”
“If you don’t go after him and he takes Juan away, then you…”
Nicole finally understood what he meant. Evan is going to find Juan now?
In a flash, she raced out.
She got into Davin’s car, and together with him, they sped to her residence.
“Faster! We have to get there as soon as possible,” Nicole urged repeatedly.
In response, Davin turned to look at her. “Don’t worry. John’s car is right in front of us. We will be able to catch up with them.”
“I’m worried that Evan will really take Juan away!” Nicole responded.
“If he really takes Juan away, you can bring Maya and Nina along with you to Hillside Villa and make a scene.”
Davin pictured the scene in his head and thought it would be rather thrilling.
If that happened, Evan would probably lose to the kids.
“That will only happen in your dreams! There is no way your brother will ever let me into Hillside Villa, so I can’t let him have Juan! Can you please focus on driving faster?”
Davin stepped on his accelerator and tailed John’s car.
Both cars drove into the slum and then stopped.
Evan got out of the car and took large strides toward Nicole’s house.
Looking at his posture, he is definitely here to steal my son.
Terrified, Nicole alighted from the car and ran, determined to be the first to get to Juan.
When she overtook Evan, she turned back to glare at him but did not take notice of where she was going.
Her heels stepped onto a broken brick, then her ankle gave way.
“Ouch!”
Evan swiftly caught her.
Nicole’s heart thumped as his unique scent filled her nostrils.
Looking at his handsome face, she froze momentarily.
Earlier, Evan misunderstood the situation and accused me of many things. But he reached out to catch me when I fell! I guess that is considered a form of help. Should I forgive him on account of his good looks?
Looking at how starstruck she looked, Evan furrowed his brows.
The idea of forgiving him just popped in Nicole’s head when he dropped her in the next second. She landed on the ground with a thud.
