Chapter 1040

“Mrs. Seet has gotten so thin and disheveled, but Mr. Seet is still heartlessly lying to her. I honestly can’t
make heads or tails of what he’s thinking.”

“I can. I called John earlier, and he said that Mr. Seet is worried about Mrs. Seet not letting him take care
of her. That is why he came up with the whole fake illness excuse to con her into staying by his side. It
may look like Mrs. Seet is caring for him, but Mr. Seet will actually be the one who’s taking care of her.”




“He could’ve just feigned the illness. Why did he have to pretend to have amnesia as well?”

“That… is probably something only Mr. Seet knows.”

Everyone was speechless.



Nicole called Wesley, who was also surprised to hear about Wicca. The latter claimed that he never even
heard of something like that before. Unfortunately, Wesley and Kate had already left for S Nation, so it’d
be a long wait before Wesley could return and save Evan.



Kate, however, deliberately lied to Nicole and said, “I’ve heard of Wicca before, Nicole. The victim can
survive longer if they are happy. You must listen to his requests and do as he asks to keep his blood
pressure low.”

Nicole sighed after hanging up.





Evan is already a domineering assh*le. Now I have to go out of my way to keep him happy?

Despite her thoughts, Nicole still decided to do as informed to keep Evan alive.



Evan got out of his study room and immediately saw Nicole in a sorrowful daze.

He walked to her and commanded, “If you want to stay and prove that you’re my wife, then you must
fatten yourself up. You’re too thin, and others will think that the Seet family have tormented you so much
that we don’t even feed you.”

Nicole was speechless. She sighed. I don’t want to be this thin either, but my illness seems to have left
a “nice” gift behind. I have no appetite whatsoever.

“Go eat!”

After saying his piece, Evan dragged Nicole to the dining room.

Nicole stared at the table filled with delicacies, but she still didn’t feel like eating anything. She had her
bowl of porridge with her and was swirling the porridge endlessly with her spoon before she took one
small sip.



“Gobble it up,” ordered Evan sternly.

Nicole wanted to fight back and said that she didn’t have any appetite, but she recalled what Kate said
about Wicca. Evan must remain happy to prolong his life and prevent Wicca from killing him. So, Nicole
started chowing down on her food.



Evan’s frown dissipated, and a small grin lit up on his face. Watching Nicole eat was a joy to him, and
Evan secretly vowed that he would get Nicole all healthy and glowing again.

After Nicole finished the entire bowl of porridge, Evan took the shells off of three prawns and gave the
prawns to her. “Finish these too,” insisted Evan.

Nicole couldn’t speak.

She was stunned for a moment before she popped them into her mouth.

Evan noticed how difficult it was for her to finish eating everything and worried about her stomach being
too full. Hence, he didn’t force her to eat anymore.

After they had their meals together, the two lovebirds sat together to watch television. Evan was
surprised by Nicole’s reaction. She hadn’t seen the kids in two years. Why isn’t she asking about them?

Nicole missed her kids dearly, and she wanted to ask about them, but she thought that it was pointless.
As far as she was concerned, Evan had lost his memories and had forgotten all about her, so there was
no way he’d remember the kids. Moreover, she didn’t want her kids to see how hauntingly thin she was
at that moment.

I’ll go see them after I gain some weight.

Evan saw through her hesitance and guessed what she was thinking, so he deliberately fished his phone
out to call Juan.

“Juan, have you gone to bed?”

Nicole was flabbergasted when she heard Evan talking to Juan. He has amnesia, but he remembers the
kids? Am I the only one he has forgotten all about?



“Not yet, daddy. Kai and I are doing our homework from the hacking classes. What’s up, daddy? Why did
you call?”

“It’s nothing. Where are Maya and Nina?”

Nicole dug her fingers into her flesh. Waves of emotions washed her heart when she heard Juan’s voice.
She really wanted to hold her kids in her arms and see how they were doing.

Nicole held her breath as she waited for Juan’s answer.

“They’re asleep, daddy. Nina said that a good night’s sleep can keep her beautiful, so she had been
sleeping on time. Maya has begun paying attention to her looks ever since she got thin, so she went to
bed when Nina did.”
