If Evan did not act like he used to, Nicole would not start a fight with him. All she planned to do was to vent a little of her frustration toward him.
However, if he acted the same as before, if he still intentionally made life difficult for her, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
At that thought, she imagined the speechless, disheveled state Evan would be in. Joy poured into her heart, and a laugh escaped her.
âMommy, itâs time for us to go to the kindergarten.â
Ninaâs words snapped her back to reality. Nicole cleared her throat. âLetâs go.â
On the way to the kindergarten, Nina insisted on keeping a distance from âJuanâ and Maya.
The girl still held a grudge against her siblings. Maya had betrayed her and âJuanâ made her apologize for the broken iPad.
Soon, the car came to a stop outside the kindergarten. The three children alighted the car, and Nina walked in front away from the other two.
Nicole let out a silent sigh at the three childrenâs figures. It seemed like she had to talk to Nina tonight.
Once they were inside, she turned the car around and drove to Seet Group.
When she stepped into the office, she saw John standing in the lobby, looking around. When he saw her, he made a beeline for her.
âMs. Tussaud, welcome!â
âThank you. Remember what youâve promised me last night,â Nicole whispered her reminder.
âDonât worry, Ms. Tussaud. This way, please.â
With a small smile, she elegantly walked to the translation department and to her old office.
Soon, John brought her the materials for A Nationâs project.
âThank you for your hard work, Ms. Tussaud.â
âThereâs no need to thank me, itâs my job, after all.â
Within seconds, Nicole had turned on her computer and dived straight into work.
Johnâs heart, which had been beating erratically, went back to its original rhythm after hearing her rapid typing.
Iâve completed what Mrs. Seet and Mr. Seet have asked of me.
After Evan heard of Nicoleâs return, the look in his eyes turned grim. He thought about the plans she taught âKyleâ and the beef and mushrooms he ateâ¦
In an instant, the odd combination of flavors crashed into his mouth in waves. For a moment, it was as if he was having the meal again.
He gulped a mouthful of water and rushed to the restroom to spit it out. Only after continuously gargling that he felt slightly better.
Damn it!
This is all because of Nicole. If she didnât come up with this idea for Kyle, this wouldnât be happening to me.
He felt he would never have beef and mushrooms for the rest of his life.
How should I make Nicole pay for this?
Walking back to his office chair, his slender fingers slowly moved the cursor across the screen.
He clicked on the menu for Y Cityâs top dessert store.
His gaze landed on their latest product, mousse cake, for a while before a smile grew on his face.
However, it was a smile that did not reach his eyes.
He picked up his phone to make a call. When he was done with that, he called John.
John had a look of bewilderment on his face after hearing Evanâs words.
Heâs asking me to pick up a mousse cake from a dessert store for Ms. Tussaud?
Mr. Seet is concerned about her? He even bought her a mousse cake from the top dessert store in the city?
This is⦠Unexpected.
Does Mr. Seet want to lessen the tension in his relationship with Ms. Tussaud, or is he concerned about the company? If itâs the latter, he must be thinking of encouraging Ms. Tussaud to work harder.
Regardless of his reasons, Ms. Tussaud must feel happy to be treated well by him.
Without delaying any second, John immediately went to the dessert store to pick the cake up.
Half an hour later, he came back to the office holding the mousse cake which was packed inside a fancy box. John then asked Evan if he was meant to send the cake to Nicole immediately.
Evan lowered his eyes slightly. He was joyous at the thought of Nicoleâs reaction when she ate the cake.
âGo ahead.â
At the presidentâs order, John sped to Nicoleâs office.
