Evan tried to move the table away but to no avail.
As he got furious, he even wished to saw off the leg of the table.
“Are you really staying here?”
Knowing that he would definitely look ghastly at this moment, Nicole turned around to avert his gaze.
Meanwhile, he heaved a sigh and said grumpily, “Alright, I will make sure you regret your decision and beg to leave later!”
Once he finished, Nicole couldn’t help but feel somewhat nervous.
What is the jerk planning to do? Will he torture me?
After Evan went upstairs furiously, she immediately put the table away. Then, she ran back to her bedroom and locked the door.
At this moment, her heart was thumping.
I’m staying here now, but terrible things might happen next. Davin asked me to act cute shamelessly to persuade Evan, yet…
Will Evan do something to force me to leave before I can say or do anything?
Since it was a lot more difficult than she thought, she was rendered clueless.
At this moment, Davin coincidentally called her when she needed help the most. She quickly answered the phone without hesitation.
“When I came to the office, I heard from John that Evan went home. How was it? Did he ask you to stay? Did he talk nicely to you? And did you deliberately find fault with him to vent your anger?”
“Do you think Evan is you? He wanted to drag me away like a dog! My god, I couldn’t stay here if I weren’t brazen-faced enough.”
“What? He went overboard this time. Wait a minute. I’ll complain to Julia now.”
However, after Davin gave it some thought, he felt that it wasn’t a good idea to complain to Julia because Sophia would know the truth too.
“Ms. Lane, I have an idea. Since you have pulled yourself up by your bootstraps to stay in the house, I’m sure you can persuade him to let you stay. Don’t play hardball with him because that is when he will get provoked. I’ll send some suggestions to you later. Please take a look and make it as your reference.”
