Maya widened her eyes, not knowing how to respond to Evan.
A brief moment later, Nicole walked into the living room with Sylphiette.
“Nicole, please sit down,” said Sylphiette.
Sylphiette deliberately displayed a sense of intimacy and respect towards Nicole as she poured her a cup of tea.
Just a moment ago, she was full of mockery and sarcasm. Why the sudden change in attitude?
What a strange woman!
Evan felt equally perplexed. These two have always been at loggerheads with one another. How come they are suddenly so nice towards each other now?
He stared at the two ladies in confusion.
After pouring Nicole a cup of tea, Sylphiette said, “Here’s your tea, Nicole.” Right after that, she took a seat next to Nicole.
Nicole looked at her without saying a word.
Davin, on the other hand, could not figure out what was going on either.
Nicole should expose Sylphiette and give her two tight slaps for impersonating her when she was younger.
Why is she accepting Sylphiette’s “kind” gestures?
Just as everyone was puzzled, Sheila said, “Continue with your questions.”
So Davin began asking his second question, “Back then, Evan made a wreath for you. May I know which color of roses he used the most?”
Sylphiette pretended to give it a think, then turned to look at Nicole.
As Nicole was serving tea, she whispered the word “pink.”
Upon hearing Nicole’s whispers, Sylphiette answered Davin’s question confidently and also described a few events that happened back then.
Only Evan and Nicole knew about these events.
Sylphiette and Nicole agreed to exchange answers as part of the deal they had struck earlier.
Evan sensed that something was wrong when he saw the guilty look on her face and how she pushed for Davin’s questions.
If the little girl from before was indeed Nicole, why would she help Sylphiette?
Is she hoping for Sylphiette and I to continue being together?
