Chapter 46

“I have no idea,” came the neighbor’s reply.

That hateful woman!

Evan had always had doubts in his mind. How did Nicole come down from the rockery? Also, what was
with that bloodstain?

He would only find answers at the Hillside Villa. Evan went downstairs, and again, drove back home like
a madman.

As soon as he set foot indoors, Evan noticed the butler walking towards him in a hurry. “This is not good,
Mr. Seet!” exclaimed Blake worriedly. “Kyle has gone missing!”



“What?” Evan was shocked to his core.



How could Kyle disappear? Unless…

“Go and investigate how that woman got down from the rockery. Then, find the origins of that blood!”



“Mr. Seet, the blood came from Kyle. He must have snuck it there… But nobody saw how she had come
down,” came his reply.

Kyle and Davin were nowhere near as careful as Evan, when it came to this.





“It came from Kyle?” Evan asked incredulously. The look on Evan’s face was grotesque.

Nicole! She must have encouraged Kyle to do this!

This woman had dared to stir trouble right beneath his nose! He clenched his fists, wishing that he could
obliterate Nicole.

Nicole who had just finished moving, sat down on the sofa. Looking at her feet, she sighed in pain.

Getting a taxi from the hospital did not take much effort.

Evan should have found out about her escape by now. She did not know if he was willing to spend
another million, putting up a missing person’s notice for her.

On top of that, Kyle had snuck out to be with her.

“Don’t worry, Mommy. Daddy won’t find us!”

Juan tried to comfort Nicole, upon seeing her preoccupied expression.



Kyle, who was moving some things in, was stunned to hear Juan address Nicole in such a manner.

“What did you just call her?” His clear eyes looked at both Juan and Nicole, unblinkingly.

Nicole was at a loss for words. She was not expecting Kyle to have overheard that so coincidentally.

Juan stuck out his tongue. He was the one who had failed to notice the faux pas.

However, if he found out, then he would. Kyle would have discovered the truth eventually anyway.

Juan looked back at Kyle, saying, “I had called her ‘Mommy’. She’s our Mommy.”



“Mommy?” Kyle looked at Nicole uncertainly.

Nicole felt nervous, unsure of how Kyle would react next. She fixed her gaze on him, and uttered, “I’m so
sorry, Kyle!”

“You… really are my Mommy?”

Nicole nodded vigorously.

“Then why did you abandon me? Was it because I was sick? Were you tired of me? Did you not want me
anymore?” Kyle was agitated.

“Kyle, Mommy had no choice. Mommy had to raise four kids on her own…” she trailed off, but regained
her composure soon. “Mommy didn’t leave you behind on purpose. I have wronged you!”

Kyle was stunned.

All these years, he had often dreamt of seeing ‘Mommy’ in his dreams, holding her hands, before asking
her, “Why did you abandon me?” Why did she not want him?

The desire for maternal love and inferiority from her abandonment had tortured him day and night.

Thinking of this, he clenched his fists. However, the tears could not stop falling.

Seeing him crying, Nicole was so distressed that she had wanted to hug him. When she stood up, she
did so too abruptly and nearly fell.

“Mommy, are you okay?” asked Juan, concerned.

“I’m alright,” affirmed Nicole. Instantly, her gaze fell upon Kyle again.

Kyle stood there blankly, not knowing what to make of the situation.



Juan knew what Nicole was thinking, and hence, he walked up to Kyle.

“Mommy loves you very much. She didn’t leave you on purpose. Don’t blame Mommy, okay?”

Having seen that Kyle was still silent, Juan pressed on, “To treat your illness, she went through extreme
lengths to see you at Hillside Villa. She was scared that Daddy would recognize her, refusing to allow
you to see her. She had also hurt her foot, trying to rescue you! Kyle, Mommy loves you very much!”
