Chapter 290
Nicole’s shrieking was frustrating him.
Did Maya not go back to them? Where did she go then?
For reasons unbeknownst to him, Evan was starting to get worried.
At the same time, Nicole was still shouting at him over the phone.
Evan answered, “We’ll continue this conversation when I’m there.” Then, he ended the call and drove
back to the store.
But Nicole couldn’t wait any longer, so she asked Rocky to send her to Evan instead.
“Let’s go to Seet Residence. He bought chicken wraps. They must be for Juan.”
When Rocky saw how panicked she was, he wasted no time letting Nina and her board his car. They
then sped off to Seet Residence.
Meanwhile, Evan had gone back to the KFC store. The moment he arrived, he received a call from
Sophia.
“Evan,e here quickly. Nicole’s asking for her daughter.”
Evan’s eyebrows creased.
It’s only been a while, but that woman’s already at Seet Residence.
Although he had rushed over here by taking shortcuts, he was still too slow.
Turning his car around, he drove back to Seet Residence.
The moment he stepped foot into the house, Nicole ran toward him.
She wore a terrifying expression as though she was going to murder him on the spot.
“She’s not with me.”
Just as the words left his mouth, Nicole grabbed the front of his shirt and glowered at him.
“Evan, you b*stard! Return Maya to me!”
“Nicole, what is wrong with you? Why would I bring another man’s daughter back here?”
Evan deliberately nced at Rocky when he said ‘another man’s daughter.’
Those words stabbed at Nicole’s heart, and she was already on the verge of a meltdown.
Unable to tell Evan the truth, tears escaped from Nicole’s eyes.
“Don’t you know how difficult it was for Maya to survive until now? She was so tiny and frail when she
was born. She was only this small…”
Evan could not help but feel guilty as he looked at Nicole breaking down.
If he had brought Maya with him, the girl would not be missing now.
Hearing Nicole’s recollection of her difficult times, his heart ached for her.
But she’s Rocky’s daughter. Shouldn’t there be someone professional to take care of her from the
moment she was born?
At the very least, Rocky should be by Nicole’s side. Why does she sound like she went through a
difficult time?
Also, she has been crying about her tough life back then without ever mentioning Rocky. Was he not
with her during that time?
They were living together abroad previously, so there was no reason for him to be absent when she
was giving birth.
Evan’s brows knitted as he peered at Rocky.
Thetter promptly walked over to support Nicole with a look of guilt.
“Nicole, this is my fault. I didn’t keep an eye on her. I’m going to call the police now.”
Evan was stunned.
Shouldn’t he be pulling strings to look for his daughter? And instruct the Yan family’s bodyguards to find
her immediately? Why is he only contacting the police?
The questions swirled in his mind. Before he could delve deeper into them, Kyle and Juan ran toward
him and begged him to help with the search for Maya.
“Daddy, please look for Maya. Please!”

Juan’s eyes reddened as he tugged at his father’s shirt.
With a simr anxious look, Kyle urged, “Daddy, Maya’s our sister. You have to find her!”
Even if the children had not asked, he would have done so.
Without dy, he fished out his phone and ordered John to send out all his men to look for Maya.
Nicole crouched in a corner with her tear-streaked face buried in her hands. Fear and desperation were
written all over her face.
Nina was devastated too. Guilt-stricken, she crouched beside Nicole as she patted her mother’s back.
“Mommy, I’m sorry. I should’ve kept an eye on Maya.”
Rocky sighed before walking toward the mother-daughter duo. He then crouched down to look into
Nicole’s eyes.
“Let’s go back and wait for updates.”
The moment Kyle and Juan heard that their mother was leaving, they felt even more dejected and
blurted, “Mommy, we want to go home with you.”
“That’s right, Mommy. We want to keep you apany until Mayaes back.”
