“Well he seems rather dedicated about such a matter,” Evan remarked in a glacial tone.
“Evan, I don’t think that he’s going to let Nicole off that easily. Be careful! If he was able to cause Nicole to lose her memories, he’ll certainly come up with other ways! You should assign more guards to keep watch around Nicole to ensure her safety at all times.”
“I’m fully aware of that.”
After the call ended, Evan realized that he had the wrong impression of Levant.
He had once thought that Levant was not making any moves. Now, it seemed like Levant had been working in the shadows.
It was impossible to guard against people with ill intentions.
It seemed like the best option available was to assign people to guard Nicole at all times.
With that thought in mind, he called Darius and Damien, telling them to halt their work and to make their way over to Imperial Garden to secretly protect Nicole instead.
Just as the call ended, Nicole’s voice resounded from upstairs.
“Evan, are you done with the fruit platter?”
“Coming!”
Evan placed the sliced fruits into a heart shape before placing some of Nicole’s favorite cheese onto the plate. He then proceeded to bring the plate upstairs.
Wow! It’s heart-shaped! Nicole’s eyes widened at the sight of the fruit platter.
“When did you learn how to do this?”
Evan responded after a pause, “While I was studying overseas.”
At the mention of his overseas studies, Nicole was reminded of Susan.
Susan was Evan’s classmate. Nicole wondered if Susan had received the chance to try Evan’s fruit platter in the past.
At that, the straightforward Nicole asked him about it.
“You couldn’t have possibly learned it because a pretty girl liked it, could you?”
Evan was stunned into silence.
He was stupefied by her question.
However, upon regaining his senses, Evan decided to tease her. Therefore, he nodded fervently.
Nicole then continued, “That pretty girl can’t be Susan, right?”
Her second question not only stupefied him again, rather, it even brought him a headache.
He shot Nicole an odd look. “Do you miss Susan? Is that why you’ve suddenly mentioned her?”
Nicole was stunned by his question.
