Nina sighed and replied, âLetâs just hope that Mommy doesnât get suspicious or wonder why weâre acting so differently.â
Maya gave it some thought and suggested, âWhat do you guys think about telling Mommy that the man standing in front of her isnât Levant but Daddy instead?â
Juan turned to Maya and replied firmly, âShe will chase Daddy away immediately!â
Kyle agreed and instructed, âDonât let Mommy find out about this, Maya!â
Even though Nina never spoke, she was staring at Maya like the latter was a mystical creature with the strangest mind. In fact, Nina had already scanned Maya several times by the time Kyle finished speaking. It was as if Nina couldnât understand her sisterâs way of thinking at all.
Maya realized that her analysis was wrong when she saw how her siblings disagreed with her. She promised timidly, âDonât worry, I wonât tell Mommy. Iâll keep the secret.â
âDaddy loves you so much, Maya, so you canât betray him or sell him out! Got it?â
Maya turned to Nina before nodding earnestly, âOkay, Nina.â
âAlright, back to our agendaâ¦â
The four kids continued discussing how theyâd get their parents back together.
The next afternoon, Evan got a call and learned that Davin and Sheila had arrived in K Nation.
Evan was worried about the two of them exposing his identity, so he had John visit the couple and explain everything beforehand.
Davin couldnât believe his ears when he learned everything. His jaw dropped, and it took him a while before he could get himself to ask, âAre you serious, John?â
âYes. Mr. Seet is staying in the Wicked Palace as Levant, so youâll both have to ask Mrs. Seet to help you get into the place. After all, you and Ms. Sheila arenât close to the real Levant, so Mr. Seet canât take you in while assuming Levantâs identity.â
Sheila spent some time processing everything she heard.
She later sighed and commented, âStaying with Nicole while assuming another manâs identity⦠Evan really is going all out for Nicole! But isnât he worried about Nicole falling in love with the version of Levant that heâs playing?â
âWhatâs there to worry about? I actually think itâd just prove that their love was true. If Nicole falls for my brother despite him wearing another manâs face then it means that she would love him regardless of what he looks like.â
Sheila was stunned. She shifted her attention to John and asked about the probability of that actually happening.
John replied that he didnât know because he couldnât show up in front of Nicole without exposing Evanâs identity. Hence, John hadnât seen Nicole and didnât know if the coupleâs relationship was progressing the way Davin hypothesized.
He later informed the couple how he had been working on locating the treasure with the Hidden Masters, so no one paid attention to their bossâ love life.
Sheila and Davin were both intrigued when they heard about the treasure hunt.
âWhat treasure are we talking about here?â
âWe have no idea. We havenât found it yet, so we have no idea what it is.â
âThen how do you know that thereâs a treasure?â asked Davin.
John replied, âMr. Evan mentioned thereâs a treasure some time ago. We examined Wicked Palaceâs floor plans and realized that Mr. Evan was right. Something has to be hidden within those walls.â
âWow, youâve really expanded your field of expertise, John. When did you learn how to read blueprints and plans?â asked Davin as he scrutinized John.
âIf you donât trust me, Mr. Davin, you can go to the Wicked Palace and check the place out for yourself. Itâs like a labyrinth in there, and youâll certainly be impressed.â
Johnâs words got Davin and Sheila utterly curious. They decided to investigate the matter when they go talk to Evan and help him court his wife.
Now that everything had been thought out, Sheila fished her phone out and called Nicole.
Nicole was surprised and excited to receive the call because it had been a while since she last spoke to Sheila. I wonder if she finally gets what she wants? Is she with Davin? Or have they gone their separate ways?
Nicole asked Sheila all the questions that were burning in her heart.
âItâs been a tough couple of months, Nicole, but I think itâs worth it. I finally got through to Davin, and he decided to spend the rest of his life with me!â
âThatâs amazing news! I am so happy for you, Sheila.â
âThank you, my sweet future sister-in-law!â
âYou shouldnât refer to me as your sister-in-law anymore. Iâve broken up with Evan.â
Sheila sighed sadly before adding, âI know, I heard about what happened. Itâs been a while since we last met and thereâs so much Iâd like to share with you. I miss you and your kids so much. Can I come and visit you guys at the Wicked Palace?â
