“Even if you don’t love me, you must marry me! You have no other choice!”
As Daphne seemed emotional, Levant shot her a glance and left the dining room.
Her gaze darkened as she watched him walked away.
“Nicole Lane, how dare you take him from me in my turf! I’ll teach you a lesson!”
With that, she left the dining room angrily.
After returning to her room, Nicole was still wondering how could she get clues from Daphne.
If she isn’t related to Levant, could she be my sister?
Perhaps my father taught her the acupuncture skills.
That is a possibility.
She told Yoda about her assumption.
Frowning, Yoda replied, “You found out they aren’t related?”
“If they are related, they can’t get married. Daphne was obviously mad at me. She likes Levant and thinks I’m her love rival.”
Huh, something feels off.
She looked up and saw him gazing at her frostily down at her.
Nicole let out a guilty cough and explained, “It was a misunderstanding. Levant and I are not acquainted in any way.”
The man said nothing as he stared at her.
Nicole furrowed her brows. Is he upset? Why would he be upset?
She sighed and muttered, “It was rather exhausting to talk to Daphne. Stop doing this to me. I came here because I want to find out who my birth father is. Otherwise, I won’t suffer silently after being bullied.”
She was bullied?
Even though this wasn’t in his territory, there was no way he’d stand back and let his woman get bullied without retaliating.
“Just go back. I’ll take over the investigation,” he announced.
