Kyle nodded and agreed to the task.
Sometime later, Evan came downstairs and saw Nicole, who stuck out like a sore thumb in the living room. His handsome face sank.
Nicole nodded.
If she could walk down herself, surely the injury is not as serious as she’d claimed?
Evan narrowed his eyes and walked quickly to her side. When he saw her feet, he wrinkled his thick eyebrows.
The white gauze was dyed a dazzling blood red.
Even her clothes were stained with blood.
With this, she’d actually walked down? It sure seemed like it!
This woman was already so cruel to herself, was there truly anything that she was incapable of?
He had to keep Kyle away from people like her!
“On my way down, I’d hit myself one too many times. The bone should definitely be broken. I had to crawl in.”
“You… crawled…” Evan looked at his mahogany floors. Was all of this blood?
He moved aside in disgust.
In tears, Nicole cried, “Mr. Seet, my legs are of no use to me right now. If I can stay here in the future, it wouldn’t be so bad. I can eat and live well here, and I’d get to see Kyle all the time. I’m his Mommy! If I can’t walk, I can only let Kyle take care of me for the rest of my life.”
Ah! You still want to stay here? And have Kyle take care of you? You must be daydreaming.
“Nicole, you were the one who had abandoned Kyle. And you now have the audacity to ask him to take care of you?” asked Evan.
“I had no choice in the matter! Why don’t you take care of me then? After all, it’s your fault that I’m in this pathetic state right now!” she retorted.
“In your dreams!” exclaimed Evan icily.
“You can just let me die here then. When Kyle learns the truth, he will hate you for life!”
Evan’s face immediately sank.
Damn this woman. Was she threatening him with her life?
However, he could not bear to ignore her. If he really did let her die here, Kyle would have definitely hated him if he had found out.
Goddamned woman, you are cruel to the core!
