Chapter 899

“I have nothing to do with you anymore, and the same goes for my Dad. There’s no need for you to
take such a big risk for someone that shouldn’t matter to you.”

“He’s my father-in-law and the grandfather of my children, so why shouldn’t he matter to me?”

There was no way to know what kind of expression Nicole had on her face in the pitch-black room, but
hearing Evan’s words, she hesitated for a second.

If it weren’t for Russell’s death, the imprisonment, and all the upsetting events, Nicole would have been
moved by Evan’s words.

“I’m marrying Levant the day after tomorrow, so how is my Dad your father-in-law? He doesn’t need
you to rescue him because Levant will let him go soon. You came here for nothing.”

As soon as she was done speaking, Nicole could hear footsteps approaching her. In the next moment,
she was embraced by a pair of strong arms.

“What are you doing?” Nicole started struggling.

“I won’t let you marry Levant!”

“Who are you to decide who I marry? What makes you think you have a say in my marriage!”

Evan decided that actions speak louder than words, so he forced a kiss on Nicole.

“Mhm!”

The sudden kiss robbed Nicole of all her air, and she struggled to breathe.

At that moment, scenes of heartbreaks flashed before her eyes, and Nicole was reminded of what a
cold-hearted b*stard the man was. What would be left of my dignity if I let him do this to me!



Nicole tried her best to resist Evan. In response, the man held her even tighter.

You think I’ll let you have your way just because you’re holding me tighter? Well, you asked for it!

Nicole then gave the man a low blow and pushed him away while he was distracted by pain.

“You… You…”

I did not expect her to hit me between the legs. That was ruthless!

“Try that again and I’ll cut off your family jewels!” warned Nicole as she panted.

“Aren’t you afraid of being a widow in the future?” asked Evan after gritting his teeth in pain.

“I’m not the one you’re marrying, so why would I be widowed?” sneered Nicole.

Such cruel words!

After the stunt Nicole pulled, Evan dared not make another move on her.

“If you insist on losing your life here, be my guest then and stay as long you want, but it still won’t
change my mind.”

Nicole then turned and left the room.

When she reached the courtyard, she suddenly heard Avril saying to Stephen, “Think about it. You’ll be
getting your revenge if we elope together.”

Stephen looked grim as Avril continued, “You’ve been imprisoned by my Dad for months, so you must
hate him, right? If you take his daughter away, he’ll surely choke on his rage. It’s a great way to get
your revenge, don’t you think so?”



Nicole was stunned and she wondered if her ears were deceiving her. Someone actually wants to
elope with my Dad? And at his age no less. I can’t believe he’s that lucky.

“Nonsense! I have a wife and a daughter, why would I elope with you?”

“Please, just consider it. Age-gap relationships are popular now, so why don’t we just give it a try? We
could always come back here if it doesn’t work out,” begged Avril in a gentle voice.

After giving the woman a solemn look, Stephen simply turned and walked away.

“Dad.”

When he ran into Nicole, Stephen wondered if his daughter had heard what Avril said just then, but he
would rather not talk about it.

“You should go back now, Nicole. Be careful.”

He then turned back to Avril. “Can you get Evan out of the Wicked Palace?”

“Only if you promise to take me with you,” answered Avril after some thought.

Stephen froze while Nicole glanced at Avril and wondered if the woman was really in love with her
father. Could it be that she has an ulterior motive?
