Chapter 801

Evan agreed to Susan’s request without a second thought.

“Sure. I’ll be there.”




“Really? That’s wonderful!” Susan exclaimed.

“Of course. I’ll see you there tomorrow, Susan.”

Nicole’s heart was burning with jealousy upon hearing Evan’s plan to visit Susan the next day. Although I
have fallen ill, I’ve still tried my best to hide it, hoping that I wouldn’t worry him over such a matter.
Nonetheless, it seems like he has the luxury of meeting Susan on her film set! To think that I was
concerned about Seet Group! Is the crisis over already?



Meanwhile, Evan observed Nicole’s reaction. If she were to stop him and tell him the reason behind her
secret meeting with Levant, he would surely cancel his meeting with Susan.



To his utter disappointment, Nicole merely remained silent for a brief moment. Thereafter, she urged, “It’s
time for dinner.” Subsequent to her words, she spun around and left.

A frosty glint flashed across Evan’s eyes. How could she act as though nothing has happened? She
didn’t even mention anything about my plan on meeting Susan! Does she not care? What’s going on with
her?





With a loud thud, Evan shut his laptop. Then, he got up and headed toward the dining area.

The quadruplets lowered their heads as they were digging into their delicious food. Nicole, who sat
beside Maya, stopped eating after two mouthfuls.



“Enjoy your meals. I’m full.” She stood up after saying that and returned to her room.

Her peculiar behavior piqued the quadruplets’ curiosity. Upon exchanging glances, they asked, “What’s
happened to Mommy?”

“Perhaps she’s lost her appetite?”

Staring at her silhouette, Evan frowned. Why has she lost her appetite?

After dinner, Evan headed to Nicole’s room to check up on her. To his dismay, Nicole was rather
preoccupied, her full attention on a medical book that was in her hand. Hence, she did not lift her head at
his arrival.

A while later, Evan asked her, “Do you want to join me at Susan’s shoot tomorrow?”

Nicole was rendered speechless.

He’s even asking me to join him?

Nicole furrowed her brows at his offer. What is he playing at? Besides, I still need to get my IV drip
treatment tomorrow. Evidently, I’ve got no time to attend her shoot.



“I won’t be going!”



Evan was stunned by her immediate rejection. She’s not stopping me, yet she’s not interested in tagging
along? Does she even care if I’m keeping in touch with Susan? Could it be that she has another
arrangement in mind? Don’t tell me that she’s planning to meet Levant in secret again?

Overwhelmed, Evan was filled with wrath as that thought crossed his mind. In an effort to settle the
uncontainable chaos in his heart, Evan soon decided that he would bring Nicole along the next day, by
hook or by crook.

The next morning, Nicole roused from her slumber, right as breakfast was prepared. Evan noticed that
she had arisen right before he was planning to wake her up. Hence, he quickly urged, “Hurry up. Have
your breakfast now. We are going to the film set once you’ve finished.”

Nicole was flabbergasted by his audacity to have ordered her around in such a domineering manner.

She lifted her head to glare at him. “I’ve told you yesterday that I’m not going to go with you!”

After a moment of silence, Evan uttered a few simple words loudly. “I won’t take no for an answer!”
Without further explanation, he turned around and made his way out of the bedroom.

Nicole let out a deep sigh while placing her hand on her forehead. It’s a good thing that the fever has
subsided. Since he insists that I should come along with him, I’ll see for myself how the events will
unfold! With her great acting skills, I’m curious as to what kind of scenes she is going to perform in.
Nevertheless, I have a feeling that this trip is not going to go peacefully as planned.

Getting herself out of bed, Nicole hurriedly headed down to have her breakfast.

After the meal, she went back to get changed. When she opened her wardrobe, Nicole recalled that
Maya’s culinary arts teacher had once made a comment about her looking old. Hence, she picked out a
pink dress and matched it with a light pink jacket. Dressed in her carefully picked outfit, Nicole’s stunning
appearance was highlighted by her beautiful makeup.



After changing, she glanced at her reflection in the mirror. To her satisfaction, her complexion had
improved to the point where her sickly state was completely undetectable.

Evan’s eyes were gleaming with excitement the moment he caught a glimpse of her attire. Women are
such duplicitous creatures. Despite her words of denial, she’d still put effort into her dressing and
makeup. I mean, she could have just told me that she’d wanted to go, right? Seeing as such, I suppose
that she’s still bothered about me getting too close with other women.

“Shall we take our leave?”

Evan gave her a sharp nod. Thereafter, they left the house together.
