Chapter 1398

Her Marriage

“Your tasks? Do you have many tasks on hand? Allocate some of them to the others. Don’t overwork
yourself!” Evan’s voice was full of concern.



Nicole felt a surge of warmth in her heart upon hearing that. “I know. I’ll try to train an assistant to
become my right-hand man.”

During dinner, everyone in the family sat around the dining table happily.

Nicole looked at the vegetables on Nina’s plate and asked, “Nina, are you on a diet?”

“Yes. I’m trying to lose weight as soon as possible, and I want to go back to being the Nina from
before.”

“I fully support your idea. But then, can the vegetables provide you with sufficient nutrients?”

“Don’t worry. Nina can eat something else such as chicken breast and milk in the morning. Those will
provide sufficient nutrients to her.”

“Maya, did you prepare this recipe for Nina?”

Maya nodded. “I’ve selected these ingredients from thousands of recipes that I’ve gone through. If
these meals work for Nina, I’ll promote them on different platforms. I believe I can earn a fortune with
them. Every woman wishes to become prettier and sexier. That’s why I think it can be a promising
business!”

Evan lifted his head. His heart ached as he looked at Maya, who was only interested in money.



“Maya, money isn’t everything. You should think about your marriage, too.”

“That’s right, Maya. Do you want Grandma to introduce a boyfriend to you? Your grandma has been
interacting a lot with some rich wives. She’s very well informed, so she knows a few young men from
certain families who are suitable for you. She can—”

“Didn’t you mention before that we have the freedom to love? Don’t tell me that you’re going to force a
marriage.” Maya looked at Nicole displeasedly.

“Force a marriage? No, Maya. I just want you to try dating them. You’ll be the one to decide whether
you’re going to spend your future with them!”

“B-But I don’t feel like dating anyone. I want to put my full attention and effort into building my career.”

“Maya, you’re a mature lady now. You’re supposed to—”

Before Evan managed to finish his sentence, Maya interrupted, “Daddy, are you worried that you’ll
have to see me in the house for the rest of your life?”

Evan was stunned. “That’s not what I meant. How can you say that?”

Nicole tugged at Evan’s sleeve gently and said, “All right. It seems like Maya doesn’t want to talk about
this right now. Perhaps she just hasn’t met her perfect one. We should stop pressuring her.”

Evan glanced at Nicole and Maya with a cold expression, saying nothing.

Feeling irritated, Maya lowered her head to eat her food silently. For some reason, she would feel
frustrated every time someone urged her to find a partner. Could it be that I have a fear of marriage?

With that thought, she could not help but feel worried. However, she changed her mind after a second.
In fact, it’s not that bad to be in fear of marriage. In that case, I’ll never get hurt by some man in my life.



A few days ago, she had come across a few comments from married women on the internet. Many of
them said they would never marry anyone if they had the choice to do so.

Maya thought that she would never get to feel worried or regretful if she refused to marry anyone.

The next day, Nicole ate a few mouthfuls of her breakfast before leaving the house. Seeing that, Evan
stood up and dragged her back to the dining table.

Nicole was taken aback by his action. She looked at him with a puzzled look and asked, “Evan, what
are you doing?”

“Eat your breakfast!”

“I-I’m full!”

“You only took a few bites. You’re going to tire yourself out if you continue to behave like that. Finish all
the food here!” With that said, Evan handed a plate of fried eggs, steak, sandwich, and a cup of milk to
Nicole.
