John was raging in fire after he heard Levantâs nonsense.
He snickered and looked at Evan respectfully. âMr. Seet, people like him donât deserve your attention. Letâs go have a look ourselves.â
After that, he turned to look at Nicole. âMs. Nicole, you have to think about it thoroughly. Donât believe in his nonsense or else youâll be deemed as a fool.â
While he was talking, he even indiscreetly glanced at Levant, signaling that he was talking about the latter.
Nicole had a frown on her face. It was not because of Johnâs lecture, but because of him calling Evan âMr. Seet.â
Could it be that heâs indeed not a kept-man? Perhaps these two are really not ordinary figures.
On the other hand, Levant was secretly furious that he was tempted to go straight to Duke Stephen Musgrave to ask the latter if he had hired Evan to be Nicoleâs bodyguard just to target him on purpose. If this continues, my plan will be ruined!
âNicole, we donât know where they come from. You should be more careful from now on.â
The woman averted her gaze away from Evanâs masculine back and nodded.
âI will. Now letâs go inside.â
When they passed by Evan, Levant turned to Nicole and deliberately raised his voice, âDid you forget to wear our coupleâs watch?â
Coupleâs watch?
Evanâs eyes turned cold. It seems like Levantâs really putting in a lot of effort on her.
When Nicole was about to utter a random excuse to brush him off, Levant answered a phone call and walked away without forgetting to glance back at Nicole, silently reminding her to be careful around the bodyguards.
Nicole nodded and watched as he strolled away before exhaling a relieved sigh.
âPeople say weâll feel at ease when weâre around the person we love. But why do I feel pressured when Iâm with Levant?â She whispered to herself.
âBecause heâs not the one you love!â
Hearing that, she turned around to see John standing behind her. Then she looked past him to look at Evan who was standing not far away, staring at her gloomily.
âYou know that?â She shifted her gaze back to John.
John nodded his head fervently. He had witnessed the relationship development between Evan and her, so of course he knew.
âThe one you love isnât Levant, butâ¦â
He whipped his head around to look at Evan.
âHim?â
Nicole pointed at the latter, and John nodded again.
Evanâs gloomy eyes glinted with hope. Although he knew Nicole suffered from amnesia, he still anticipated how she would react to that.
Nicole sneered disapprovingly and regarded it as a joke.
If I was in love with someone else, then why am I engaged to Levant all this time? Also, John called him Mr. Seet earlier, and heâs exuding a strong aura. He must not be an ordinary person. He must be pursuing me for something deeper than I thought.
While thinking of this, she recalled Levantâs warning to keep her guard up around them, which she thought was reasonable to do so.
Evan watched as her eyes traveled all over him suspiciously. Seeing this, the hope in his eyes completely died down.
Why does she trust that man so easily now? Not only that, but sheâs also thinking that Iâm approaching her with a malicious intention.
Nicole stayed silent as she scrutinized Evan. âMrs. Seet, have you remembered that the person you love is Mr. Seet? Please think about it, you and himâ¦â
âI remember!â she suddenly interrupted him.
