Chapter 1703 Worried About The Kids
Evan stared at Davin with a shocked expression. Where did he get that? Once Evan was back in Imperial Garden, he peered at the note carefully. There was an address on it. Just what could this be? Is this Lucasâ address, or is it a place where he was seen?
He couldnât help but wonder. After a moment of thinking, he called John and asked the latter to check out the address.
âYes, Mr. Seet. Iâll look into it as soon as possible.â
âNo, itâs fine. Itâs late now. You can do it tomorrow. Report to me tomorrow night.â
âYes, Mr. Seet!â
Once Evan hung up, he strode along the hallway and finally walked into his room. At that moment, Nicole had just come out from the shower with her dripping, wet hair.
Seeing that, he quickly took a towel and helped to dry her hair by squeezing the excess water. After that, he asked her to sit in front of the dressing table and began blowdrying her hair.
Nicole smiled when she saw how focused Evan was in helping her dry her hair.
All these years, heâll always help me dry my hair before I sleep as long as he has the time. There was no way heâd let me sleep with my wet hair since he said it was bad for my health. Aww⦠My husbandâs so considerate!
She continued to stare at him as if he was a beautiful painting. Ahh⦠What a handsome guy. How can he be so attractive and manly? Iâll never get enough of himâ¦
Once her hair was dried, Evan put down the hairdryer on the dressing table, carried her up in a princess cradle, and put her down on their big bed.
She continued to stare at him without blinking.
âHmm? Whatâs the matter? Youâve been staring since just now. Havenât got enough of me yet?â Evan teased and smirked.
âEvan, do you want to sleep in another room?â she asked.
Huh? Where did that come from? Did I do something wrong that sheâs kicking me out to punish me? Evan furrowed his brows and wondered why she would even suggest such a thing.
Seeing how lost he looked, Nicole explained, âLike what Davin said earlier about middle-aged couples and how common it is for them to sleep separately, do you want to be my neighbor at night? Hmm? Do you want to have a taste of living separately?â
Oh. So that was what she meant.
He reached out to her and stroked her cheek gently with the back of his fingers.
âItâs the biggest blessing that I could ask for if we could stay together happily and peacefully. We should cherish that. Iâd never want to sleep separately unlessâ¦â
âUnless what?â
âUnless you insist that I sleep in the guest room. Mrs. Seet, do you want me to sleep in the guest room?â
Huh? Wasnât I the one whoâs asking him? Why is he asking me back?
Nicole reached out to him to pinch his handsome face. âIâm glad that things are going smoothly lately. I want to stay together with you.â
âRight? Living separately isnât a good thing. Even if it was normal for other people, we shouldnât follow that.â
âMmm. But, Evan⦠I feel that things are a little too quiet lately. Itâs as if something bad would happen soonâ¦â Nicoleâs voice trailed off.
Evan was deep in thought for a second as he considered what she had said. Her sixth sense may be true. I think Lucas would definitely make his move soon⦠Besides, Nina, Maya, Kyle, and Juan might go through something soon.
âWilbur called me today to tell me that heâd come to see me at Seet Group tomorrow.â
âWilbur? Is it true that he got another woman pregnant? Has he gotten the results of the investigation?â Nicole was more worried about this matter because she felt that Maya had feelings for that man.
Oh, Maya. I know you. You always hide your true feelings. You tend to pretend youâre okay and unfazed by the news, but deep down, youâre sad.
âI donât know either. I guess Iâll find out tomorrow when I meet him,â Evan stated.
âOkay! Make sure to get to the bottom of it tomorrow, okay? Also, I wonder how things are between Nina and Stephen.â
âNina has gone through so much. She knows what sheâs doing. Iâm sure she can take care of herself even in her relationship.â
Nicole agreed with Evanâs words, and she continued to think about her sons.
