Chapter 760
Nicole wanted to exin herself badly but did not do so in the end as bitterness surged in her heart when
she saw Susan by Evan’s side.
She gave him a fierce look. “It’s my freedom to dress up however I like. Mind your own business.”
After giving him a piece of her mind, she left in the other direction.
Evan watched her storm off with a heavy heart.
Her obstinate personality had not changed one bit.
I was just trying to look out for her. What an ungrateful woman.
Back at Imperial Garden, Nicole read a piece of breaking news online. The guys who harassed her at the
cocktail party had their hands chopped off.
Nicole felt a numbness creeping to her head as she stared at the gory images.
Though the news did not reveal who did it and the descriptions were quite vague, all clues were pointed
to Evan, the reaper.
Otherwise, isn’t this too much of a coincidence?
Is he trying to deter people from harassing me? Did he do this to help me?
“Evan Seet, why are you still toying with me when you already have Susan by your side?”
With that, she took her clothes and headed for the bathroom.
Soaking in the tub, she heaved a long sigh and shut her eyes, enjoying the gentle caress of the hot water
on her body. Warm steam lingered in the bathroom, making it look like paradise.
It did not take long for a heartbreaking scene to appear in her head, the one where Susan stood in front
of her with her arms wrapped around Evan.
“Evan, is Susan that great?”
“Do you really like her that much?”
“Evan Seet, you’re a jerk!”
“Evan…”
As she called out his name, tears rolled down her cheeks like an open floodgate.
His name had been deeply engraved in her soul and imprinted on her heart. Whenever she thought
about him, she could not help but recite his name multiple times.
“Evan Seet… Evan Seet…”
In a blink of an eye, another half a month passed by after theirst encounter. The days when one
suffered from lovesick was extremely hard to bear.
Perhaps God was satisfied with the emotional turmoil and mental torture that they had been going
through, He decided to hit the pause button and sent some trouble in Nicole’s way.
One afternoon, when Evan was daydreaming by his window, his phone rang.
Seeing that the call was from Kyle, he answered it immediately.
“What’s wrong, Kyle?”
“Daddy, Mommy’s injured. Can you visit her at the hospital?”
“How did she get hurt? Which hospital?” Evan’s tone was rather impatient, but very concerned.
Kyle shared the details with him and he darted to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Nicole was on the sickbed, grumbling in pain.
She was with her. “Sigh… Why did you have to fix the que at the clinic personally? You’re so lucky
to still be alive. If you fell from anywhere higher, you would be gone by now.”
“I was too careless. I thought that it was something easy to fix.”
“You’re such a klutz. Do you think that you’re made of metal? Even if you’re invincible, you should spend
your time and energy fighting with that b*tch!”
Nicole was rendered speechless. I knew she was going to bring this up.
As she had predicted, She continued her interrogation. “Are you nning to do nothing and just let
them being with each other?”
“They are husband and wife. Surely, they have to be together.”
She sat beside her and looked her in the eye.
“Mr. Seet has never dated her and neither did he register their marriage officially. You know this very well
and you need to trust him. You’re just enraged by the fact that they conducted a wedding ceremony in K
Nation, right?”
Nicole nced at her but did not speak a word.
I’ve been keeping my distance not just because I’m angry at him, but because I know we don’t have a
future together. Evan won’t abandon Susan as he thinks that he owes her a favor. With that said, they
will register their marriage and have kids in the future. What does it leave me with?Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
