Chapter 794

She reached home and got full of herself, but a maid rushed over anxiously and told her, “Ma’am
someone has delivered you a gift! He says that you should check it out on your own!”

“What is it?” Staring at the box that the maid had handed her curiously, she asked, “Who has delivered
this?”




“The sender refused to announce his identity, but he’d insisted on having you to check it out on your own
and he’s said that it is a precious gift.”

Furrowing he brows, she couldn’t help but wonder who would have sent her a gift out of the blue.

She hesitated for a few seconds but returned to the bedroom after she took the box from the maid.



Who could it possibly be? Could this be a hazardous item?



As she was slowly engulfed by a sense of insecurity, she opened the box in a cautious manner. Her face
turned pale and haggard upon catching a glimpse of the thing that was inside the box.

“Argh!” Consequently, she shrieked and cast the box aside immediately because a finger drenched in
blood could be found within the box.





Apart from that, there was a ring on the amputated finger. She was certain that the ring had belonged to
her father because she had seen it countless times before.

Thus, Levant must have been the one who had delivered the so-called gift.



D-Did he amputated my father’s finger? How could he do this to him? Has he lost his mind?

Nicole was utterly frustrated. She staggered her way over to the shelf and reached for her phone that
had been switched off.

She switched it on immediately and noticed that there were a few missed calls and text messages, but
she couldn’t be bothered by those at all. Instantly, she called Levant.

“Nicole, finally! You have switched on your phone again!”

Upon hearing the man’s composed voice, she couldn’t suppress her frustration anymore. She yelled
hysterically, “Levant, what the hell do you want? How could you be such a cruel man? He was the one
who had brought you up for the past two decades!”

Levant wondered aloud in a calm and collected manner, “Nicole! It’s merely a finger, isn’t it? Why have
you gotten so worked up over a finger?”

It’s merely a finger? Why does he sound as though he thinks that it’s not a big deal at all? Does this
mean that this isn’t a big deal to him?



All of a sudden, Nicole found Levant horrifying because she had merely switched off her phone for two
hours; nonetheless, the man had already amputated her father’s fingers.



In fact, he managed to deliver it to her place within two hours. She couldn’t help but suspect that her
father wasn’t in Wicked Palace. Perhaps he was in town, imprisoned by Levant.

“Nicole! I’m waiting for you to celebrate my birthday with me! If you don’t show up soon, I’ll deliver you
another gift. Perhaps it’ll be an eye, a nose, an ear, or all three of them! I can’t be too sure!”

“Levant, are you sure that you want to do this?”

Nicole clenched her fists with all her might. She wouldn’t stop cursing Levant in her mind as she thought
that her father shouldn’t have adopted such an ungrateful jerk in the first place.

“Nicole, as long as you do as I’ve instructed, nothing bad will happen! Please don’t be hopeful and think
that Evan may get you out of this. Perhaps you’re not aware, but Evan is having a hard time as of now! A
few of Seet Group’s projects have encountered different issues at the same time. I’m afraid that his
company will sustain a serious loss this time! Nicole, if Evan isn’t able to get Seet Group out of the nasty
situation, how do you think he will feel?”

All of a sudden, Nicole recalled the conversation that Evan had with his subordinates last night.

Indeed, he had mentioned something similar and had said that the company would possibly sustain a
serious loss soon.

Never would Nicole have expected Levant to be such a ruthless man; he didn’t bother to hold back
against them at all.

“Levant, you’re such a cunning man!”

“I won’t get upset because you’re right! As long as I’m able to achieve my goals, it doesn’t really matter,
does it?”

She couldn’t believe her ears because Levant had the guts to make such thick-skinned remarks.



In the end, she fell silent once again; she was at a loss for better words to continue the conversation. His
current deeds had overturned the impression that Nicole had of him in her mind. She felt as though he
was no longer the Levant whom she had used to know.

Has he changed, or have I been deceived by his superficial disguise all along?

“Nicole, I’m still waiting for you!”

Levant hung up the call once he finished his sentence.

Staring at the screen of her phone, Nicole’s heart sank to the bottom of her stomach. She found that she
couldn’t decide on her next best course of action.

Levant had threatened him with her father’s life. On top of that, he had been going after Seet Group
behind the scene all this while. I’m sure that he has come prepared!
