Chapter 958


    There were still many matters at Seet Group for him to deal with, so she did not want to trouble him.


    “Nicole, what’s the matter?” Evan asked.


    Snapping out of her thoughts, Nicole shook her head. “Nothing. I had a nightmare when I fell asleep in


    the bathtub earlier.”


    Concerned, Evan gently touched her pale face andforted her, “You don’t seem well. Tomorrow, I’ll


    get a doctor to give you a checkup.”


    “It’s alright. I feel tired all the time, but I’ll be okay after taking a nap,” Nicole assured.


    “Quickly get some sleep then,” Evan nagged as he took a bath towel and dried her body. Then, he


    carried her into the bedroom and gently ced her on the bed, tucking her under the white sheets.


    Within minutes, Nicole closed her eyes and fell asleep.


    That night, she had many dreams, and as though she was watching a movie in her head, shocking


    scenes continued to appear one after another.


    She was either running for her life or drowning in the middle of an ocean. Otherwise, she was falling off


    a cliff. All of them were taunting to her, and none were peaceful dreams.


    By the time she woke up, she was covered in sweat.


    It took her some time to calm down, and when she turned to her side, Evan was no longer there. She


    stretched out her hand to touch the empty spot, but it felt cold, which meant he left a while ago.


    He had probably gone to work. It looked like she overslept again.


    She reached for the watch by her bedside and saw that it was already nine in the morning.


    Sighing, she sat up, still feeling weak.


    While having breakfast, Avril stared at Nicole’s pale face and seemed hesitant to talk to her. She


    looked like she had a question.


    “Do you want to ask me something?” Nicole took a sip of her milk and asked Avril directly.


    Awkwardly, Avril looked around before walking towards Nicole. She whispered, “You must have had a


    lot of fun with Mr. Seetst night. It looks like all your energy have been sucked out of you.”


    rmed, Nicole looked at Avril with a horrified expression on her face.


    What is Avril thinking about? This woman from Wicked Pce has quite a wild imagination. Last night,


    I fell asleep quite early and did not do anything with Evan at all.


    Meanwhile, Avril took Nicole’s silence as an acknowledgement. Patting her shoulder, she advised, “I


    heard that doing too much of it is not good for health. Both of you should learn to control yourself.”


    She even added, “This is a genuine piece of advice.”


    “It’s nothing like that, I…”


    Nicole was about to exin herself, but Avril had turned to leave.


    Such matters were always hard to exin. Besides, although it was nothing like what Avril thought,


    Nicole knew something was wrong with her health. She could not figure it out and thought of visiting the


    doctor.


    Following her n, she cleaned up after breakfast and changed into some casual clothing before


    heading to the hospital.


    The doctor found no health issues with her body after the examination, but he mentioned that she


    might be too tired or stressed out recently. He advised her to rest and prescribed some tranquillizers for


    her.


    With the doctor’s assurance, Nicole could finally let down her guard.


    The moment she returned to Imperial Garden, she followed the doctor’s order and took the medicine


    he prescribed for her. Then, shey down on the bed to rest.


    Soon, she was fast asleep.


    On the other hand, Avril was downstairs, pestering Stephen whenever she had some free time. As a


    result, his first reaction was to hide whenever he saw her.


    When he opened his door and saw her standing before him, he would close his door immediately.


    When he went downstairs and saw her there, he would head back to his room.


    When he saw her walk to the living room, he would walk away.


    Upset, Avril pouted and looked at his back and start sulking.

    “Weren’t we getting along earlier? Why would he change his mind all of a sudden? They say women


    are fickle-minded, but I guess men are equally the same too. This can’t continue. I have to think about


    how else I can rise above this challenge.”


    After she whined, she nced upstairs and thought about Nicole.


    Surely, Nicole would help her.


    Immediately, she rushed upstairs and knocked on the door several times. However, there was no


    response, so she barged in to see Nicole sleeping peacefully.
