Chapter 291
Nicole raised her head to look at Evan. At that moment, he was facing his back to her, so she could not
see his expression.
Evan definitely won’t let the boyse with me.
After wiping her tears away, she was about to persuade her sons to stay when Evan’s deep voice
sounded. “I’ll send both of you there.”
His words were like a sudden ray of sunshine on a gloomy day, and warmth seeped into Nicole’s heart.
He gave his approval?
It’s strange how quickly he agreed to it. Is he pitying me now that I’ve lost Maya?
Like Nicole, Kyle and Juan had not expected their father to agree to it without hesitation. Overwhelmed
with joy, Juan hugged Nicole tightly, unwilling to let go.

“Mommy, Daddy’s sending us there. Why don’t youe with us in Daddy’s car?”
“That’s right, Mommy. Come ride in Daddy’s car.”
Nicole peeked at Nina. Like a child who had made a mistake, Nina stood still wordlessly with her head
hung low.
She took herck of response as a silent agreement.
“Let’s go, Nina.”
Thus, Rocky had no other choice but to follow Evan’s car.
Soon, the Maybach drove out of Seet Residence. During the ride, Nicole stared out the window nkly
at the cars speeding past them. She was still worried sick about Maya’s safety.
Nina’s small hand held Nicole’srger one. “Mommy, we’ll definitely find Maya.”
“That’s right, Mommy. Daddy’s good at finding people. Trust him. He’ll find Maya soon.”
“Maya isn’t like the three of you. She…” The image of Maya, lost and panicking, emerged in Nicole’s
mind. “If the bad guys have her… Mommy’s really worried.”
Crystal clear tears streamed down her pale cheeks at that thought.
Through the rearview mirror, Evan saw Nicole’s sorrowful look.
This was the first time he had seen her so upset.
In the past, his impression of her was tough and stubborn. But now that she was crying quietly, Evan
felt as though ayer of grey cloud had cast over his heart, blocking out the sun. He could not help but
feel upset along with her.
This is my fault.
If I took Maya along with me at that time…
At that thought, the image of Maya rubbing her plump little hands and calling him ‘Uncle Evan’ entered
his mind.
She was fearful yet looking forward to his response. Evan’s memory of her was now a dagger of guilt
that stabbed into his heart.
“Don’t worry, I’ll get Maya back.”
Evan’s calm voice echoed in the car.
Nicole knew how powerful the Seet Group was in Y City. As long as he was willing to help her, Maya
had a high chance of being found.
His words were a lifesaver to her now.
If she could, she would have held tight to those words.
It made her think of the times when she was younger—when she was dependent on the boy in the
Rose Garden.
It was a treasured feeling that she had buried deep in her heart.
As she nced at Evan,plicating emotions washed over her before they settled into bitterness in
her heart.
Sadly, I’m no longer the girl whom the boy wants to protect.
Now, Nicole was nobody to Evan.
“Mommy, don’t cry.”
Looking at Nicole’s tear-stricken face, Juan reached out to wipe her tears away.
“Daddy, why don’t you wait for the news with us? That way, Mommy can know about it the moment you
get any updates.”
Kyle’s words stunned everyone, including Juan.
Juan had thought that he was the witty one. Yet, Kyle had proven him wrong. Even at that moment,
Kyle was thinking of matchmaking Nicole and Evan.
Juan was truly impressed by Kyle.
The truth was, Kyle did not have a hidden agenda when he suggested that. He only wanted his daddy
to stay by his mommy’s side when she was sad.
Nicole thought Evan would reject his request, but to her surprise, he nodded.
To Nicole, his willingness to stay with her was akin to a candle in the dark; it was a pir of support for
her.
The car finally reached Summervale.
After alighting the car, they were about to head inside when Rocky abruptly walked toward them.
As if he was the owner of the house, he uttered, “Thank you for bringing them back, Mr. Seet. I’ll take
care of Nicole.”
