Chapter 285

“Rumors?” Sophia sneered, “You act as if you have the most reliable source of information.”

“Mom, how could you believe everything just by seeing two random photos? The Yan family was
enraged by the way it was reported and has initiated an investigation. I believe the truth will surface
soon.”

“Really? What is the truth then?”

“I can guarantee you that the news on the tabloid is totally fake.”

Sophia thought deeply and then asked, “If there’s no scandal, then tell me, who is the father to the two
girls? They look just like Nicole. It would be so much easier to tell if they looked like their father.”

“You’re right. If they looked like their father, they would be addressing you as Grandma,” Davin said
softly.

Sophia did not hear him well. She twitched her brows and asked suspiciously, “What are you
murmuring? Whose grandma?”

“No. Nothing.” Davin shook his head.

Evan has already kept Kyle and Juan by his side. If he finds out about the truth and exercises whatever
means to get the two girls too… No, this can’t happen. It’ll be too miserable for Nicole! Mom should
never discover this too, otherwise it will lead to another disaster.

While Davin was still in deep thoughts, Sophia threw a pillow at him.

“What are you doing, Mom?”



“You’d better be using your free time wisely to find a companion, tie the knot, and bear me some
grandchildren.”

What sort of madness is this? Mom’s on her grumbling mode again.

“Sure, Mom. In order to ensure that I don’t upset you in the near future, I’ve decided to…”

Sophia looked at him with hopeful eyes. Please tell me this son of mine has sorted himself out and is
ready for marriage.

However, the next thing she heard struck her like a lightning bolt.

“I’ve decided to stay far away from you. If you don’t call me, I won’t appear in front of you. Wherever
you are, I’ll avoid being in your presence. How’s that?”

Bang! A cup that was aimed at Davin’s head flew across the room.

“You rascal! Go away and don’t return if you dare.”

“Noted, Mom. Your wish is my command.” David showed a piteous look but subsequently turned and
sprinted off.

“Get back here, you good-for-nothing… Such a heartless son…”

Davin finally stopped in his tracks and took a deep breath when Sophia’s scolding was too far to be
heard. His unruly face looked distracted.

After a while, he suddenly recalled that one important matter which Evan stopped him from saying
when he was at his office.

This matter is of utmost urgency. I must tell him!



He called Evan immediately. “Hey, I’ve got something important to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“It’s not so convenient to speak over the phone. I’m heading over to yours now.”

“Sure.”

Sylphiette, who was dining with Evan, asked about the call inquisitively.

“It was Davin.”

Upon hearing that name, an anxious look flashed through Sylphiette’s eyes because she knew that
Davin had been investigating her recently.

Why is he coming over so late at night? Did he find out something about me? If so, what should I do?
No, I cannot give him any opportunity to spill the beans.

“You carry on eating, Evan. I’ll just pop over to the kitchen to see if the soup is ready.”

Evan nodded.

After leaving the dining room, Sylphiette made a quick phone call, hastily left a message, and hung up.
She looked a little relieved afterwards.

Then, she made her way to the kitchen and brought the soup for Evan, but kept her eyes peeled on his
phone screen the entire time.

Right when they had just finished eating, Evan’s phone rang.

“What did you just say?”



Seeing how shocked Evan was after receiving the news, Sylphiette was secretly delighted, knowing
that someone must have met with an accident.

Seems like the task was completed.

Evan hung up, rose to his feet, and hurried to the door.
