Chapter 1148: Chapter 1175

Davin did not expect Sheila to bring up that topic out of the blue. He exclaimed, “Sheep, you’re making no sense. It was just a slip of the tongue, I didn’t mean to mention her intentionally.”

“Slip of the tongue? Is she always in your subconscious mind then, Davin? Otherwise, why would you even mention her name?”

“I… I…” Davin was at a loss for words and he couldn’t come up with an explanation. She’s being unreasonable. I was just speaking without thinking it through. I didn’t mean anything by it.

Seeing that both of them were about to get into a fight, Sophia let out a heavy sigh and began to reason with Sheila.

“Sheila, forget about Renee. Listen to what I have to say.”

“Okay.” Sheila fixed her gaze on Sophia. Now that she was having an argument with Davin, she wanted to see who would Sophia favor.

Sophia sighed and said, “Renee’s love for Davin was great indeed. After she was diagnosed with infertility, she took the initiative to leave him. She left silently and for so many years, we have no news of her. For this kind of woman, she deserves to have a spot in his mind. But it doesn’t matter, anyway. Their relationship did not last in the end.”

Sophia continued, “That’s why you don’t have to think too much about it. Rather than being a woman that stays in his mind, it’ll be even better for you to be a malignant tumor that grows in his heart. This way, he’ll die if he removes you, and he won’t be able to get rid of you. He’ll have to dote on you at all times for fear that you might get upset and kill him with your cancerous cells. That is the definition of accompanying him till the end of his life.”

Davin was baffled by Sophia’s words. He had no idea where his mother had gotten that kind of insight. But when he thought about it, that had always been his mother’s style of talking and doing things.

Sheila pondered for a while and nodded silently. She said, “I understand. I have never wanted him to think about me twenty-four-seven. All I ever wanted is to be by his side. Now that we are together, I will focus on being a malignant tumor in his heart. Brace yourself, Davin.”

Davin was speechless at that.

He sighed inwardly. Mom, what kind of illogical knowledge have you impart to her?

Sheila had always been clingy towards me. What’s next? There’s no way to tell the kind of tricks she would come up with to be the “malignant tumor”.

“It’s good that you understand what I meant, Sheila. Well, Dad and I have something to do, so we are going out for a while. You guys should stop by Imperial Garden to see Nicole. And bring along some supplements for her too.”

“Alright.”

After that, Sophia and Jonathan left the house looking pensive. Davin watched them leave with curiosity and wondered where they were going.

With a sigh, Sheila said, “I know you are wondering why I’m not able to get pregnant, Davin. Why don’t we go and see Nicole first, then we’ll go to the hospital to run some checks on me, okay?”

“Okay.” Davin agreed.

After buying some health supplements for Nicole, they rushed to Imperial Garden.

As soon as they entered the door, they were stunned. They were surprised to see that the mighty Mr. Seet was not in the office today. Instead, he had an apron around his waist, and he was being rather attentive to his wife.

What the heck?

“Evan, what are you doing?”

Evan looked up and kept his gaze on Davin and Sheila as they walked in. He replied calmly, “I’m taking care of your sister-in-law. She’s pregnant.”

“We know that she’s pregnant. Maya has already called up Mom, and Mom asked us to bring some supplements for Nicole.” Then, Davin turned to Nicole and asked, “How are you feeling, Nicole?”

Nicole nodded and replied, “I’m feeling fine.” Then, she turned and looked at Evan with an odd expression on her face.

She thought to herself, I’m pregnant, but he’s treating me like I’m disabled. He won’t let me do anything at all, and he even carried me up and down the stairs. This is ridiculous!
