Chapter 398

Nicole wanted to break free before she lost herself under his spell, but Evan’s grip tightened around her
and she knew there was no way she could get away.

He drummed his fingers against her back and started undressing her slowly.

A shade of pink spread on her plump cheeks and her heart started beating faster.

Before Nicole could even get her head around what was happening, Evan had stripped her and she
was left exposed before him.

She stole a glance at Evan as she sensed his piercing look on her naked body. The way he gazed at
her was full of affection, love, and longing.

He leaned down and scooped her up in his arms before gently putting her down in the bathtub.

“Is the temperature okay?” Evan asked, dabbing some water on her skin.

“Yeah,” she replied softly with a slight nod.

Nicole closed her eyes as Evan joined her in the bathtub and she surrendered herself to him.

Under the muted lights dimmed by the heavy and heaty mist, two fluttering shadows intertwined
rhythmically and danced passionately into the long and steamy night.

……

A new day arrived as the sun showered generously on the huge bed.

Nicole felt the bright rays tickling her eyelids and her lashes quivered slightly. She gradually opened her
eyes and wanted to stretch herself awake. But her whole body felt sore and wasted.



She let out a grunt and turned her head to look at Evan. But the spot next to her was already empty.

Nicole could hear Maya and Nina fighting over toys from her room.

She could also hear Evan’s deep voice reprimanding them, saying “Keep it low, girls. Mommy is still
sleeping!”

Maya pouted her lips in dissatisfaction. “Now we can’t even talk because Mommy is sleeping.”

“Yeah! Why is she still not awake? Didn’t you say we’re going out today?” Nina asked.

“Enough questions. Go back to your room and let Mommy rest. We’re not going anywhere if she’s not
well-rested,” Evan instructed.

Evan was being unreasonable and the two girls glared at him angrily.

But Evan shot them an intimidating glare and the two went back to their room without another word.

Nicole smiled sweetly as she listened to them from her bed. It had been a long time since she slept in.

The last time she got to get a long night’s rest was also because of Evan.

He really pampered her like a queen.

But Nicole still got out of the bed and washed up. After getting a change, she went out only to find Evan
making breakfast in the kitchen.

She offered to help but he asked her to go check on the kids instead.

“Go take a look at the kids. They were looking for you after they woke up. They were afraid I did
something nasty to you,” Evan said with a sly smile on his face.



“Huh?” Nicole looked at him with questioning eyes.

“Yeah, I let them sneak a peek and they finally agreed to go back to their rooms after seeing you were
asleep,” Evan explained.

Aw! These babies are so adorable.

She quickly went into Kyle and Juan’s room. The two boys leaped off their bed and ran towards her
when they saw Nicole at their door.

“Mommy, are you okay?” they inquired worriedly.

“Mommy is okay,” Nicole replied patiently.

Maya and Nina also came into the room when they heard Nicole’s voice.

“Mommy, we will protect you if Daddy bullies you,” the kids said.

Nicole smiled embarrassedly as she recalled what happened yesterday. The kids must have
misunderstood.

“Mommy is okay, don’t worry. Let’s go and have breakfast,” she told the kids.

The lot followed Nicole to the dining area and each of them took their respective seats, waiting to taste
the delicious food their Daddy made.

They quickly finished breakfast and implored Evan to bring them on an outing. Evan threw the ball to
Nicole and asked where should they go.

Since they will be meeting the Seet family tomorrow, Nicole figured they should go shopping and get
some new clothes first. She needed to make sure everyone looked their best.



Maya and Nina were the most excited among the kids. Their jaw dropped as they walked into a grand
and luxurious shopping mall. They looked at the plethora of colorful and fine clothing in the shops and
wanted to get some for themselves too.

“Daddy, where is the children’s section? We want to get some pretty clothes too,” the two girls said,
clinging to Evan.

“We’ll go get clothes for the both of you later. Let mommy get hers first, okay?” Evan replied.

Maya and Nina nodded understandingly. They knew Mommy always had the first place in Daddy’s
heart.

Maya went through the beautiful clothes, checking each of them out carefully before turning to Evan.

“Daddy, aren’t these clothes expensive? I’ll just go get cheaper ones,” she told Evan quietly
