Chapter 759

“Ms. Lane, it’s too crowded here, let’s find a quiet place and get comfortable.”

The guy put his arms around her.




Nicole was stunned by the unexpected action. Sensing trouble, her face dimmed. “Excuse me, I got to
go.”

“You think you can leave?”

A man blocked her while the rest surrounded her.



Nicole’s heart froze. Why are there such scumbags in a high-class event like this? What should I do
now? How do I escape?



“Ms. Lane, come with us to the lounge. There’s a huge bed waiting for you.”

All that had happened were captured by Evan. His eyes blazed with fury and his expression got colder
tenfold.



Susan noticed the changes in his emotions and held onto his arm. “Evan, I guess Ms. Lane is just
chatting with her friends. Mr. Joule is waiting for you over there, let’s go.”

Fixing his gaze on Nicole who was one floor below him, Evan ignored Susan completely.





Right then, Nicole was panic-stricken. “No, I’m not going with you. I have to go…”

“Where are you going? Do you think that you’re still an innocent girl after being toyed with by Evan
Seet?”

“Exactly. Come with us. You don’t want us to do it the hard way, do you?” He rolled up his sleeves and
was ready to drag Nicole away.

“What are you trying to do? I’m going to scream for help if you don’t leave.”

“Go ahead, Ms. Lane.”

“But if you do scream…” The guy raised his arm as he spoke.

Crap! Is he going to hit me?

I can’t even scream for help? That’s too much.

Then again, I have a silver needle with me and it might come in handy.

I’m going to yell.

“Help! Someone molested me…”

At that moment, someone smashed a wine glass from upstairs.



Bang! The red stained wine glass shattered and its debris were all over the place, causing everyone to
look up in shock.



“Who’s that?”

“Who did it? Come out now!”

As soon as the questioned was asked, Evan strode down the stairs and stood behind him.

“I did it.”

His tone of voice was mellow but cold enough to send chills down the spines of those who heard him.

He exuded a domineering aura as he took a glance across the hall. The custom-made black suit
complemented his nobleness.

Flabbergasted, the guys turned around only to be greeted by Evan’s hateful stare.

“Mr… Mr. Seet, you’re here too?”

“Mr. Seet, we’re just fooling around with her. It was a joke.”

Their faces paled. If we knew that Mr. Seet is in our midst, no one would dare to do that even if we have
nine lives. We’re so unlucky to be caught red-handed by him.

Evan stared daggers at their dirty hands. His gaze was very frightening. After a long while, he roared,
“Get lost!”

The guys ran off immediately.

“Evan…”

Susan quickened her footsteps and followed him downstairs.



Her eyes were drawn from Evan to Nicole. Taken aback, she promptly walked towards her to offer her
concern.

“Are you all right, Ms. Lane?”

“I’m ok,” Nicole replied casually.

“That’s good.” Susan approached Evan and wrapped her arms around him, as if she were asserting her
identity as Mrs. Seet.

She said with a coy smile, “Evan, Mr. Joule is still waiting for us. We should go.”

Seeing them standing next to each other, Nicole felt a wrenching pain in her heart and subconsciously
clenched her fists.

Evan’s hawk eyes were still locked on Nicole. Why is she wearing such revealing clothes?

“Are you trying to attract unwanted attention with your outfit? There’s a slim chance for Lane Corporation
to win the bidding. You can’t win just by putting on skimpy clothes.”

She kept quiet as her face darkened.

I know the current state of Lane Corporation very well. That’s why I’m here to get to know more
socialites. I’m not here for the bidding!
