Chapter 613: Chapter 612

Regardless of whether she did or not, he was never giving Stephen another chance to meet Nicole ever.

He would return the favor for the blood transfusion. It didn’t matter what he had to do for it.

Right then, Juan ran into the ward.

“Daddy, Sir Musgrave is here to visit Mommy again. He brought many gifts again.”

A glint flashed past Evan’s eyes. He stood up and stepped out of the ward.

Looking at his stiff, retreating figure, Nicole had a bad feeling.

Evan won’t get into any confrontation with Sir Musgrave, right?

She wanted to follow him, but the pain on her wound stopped her. The moment she strained the wound on her waist, sweat would bead on her forehead from the pain. Moving was not an option, so she could not follow him out.

After a while of thinking, she called Nina, telling the girl to monitor her father and report to her if anything happened.

When Nina recalled Evan’s unfairness, she realized she could take revenge on him with this opportunity.

She was definitely going to watch her evil father with eagle eyes and report every minuscule detail to her mother.

When Stephen just arrived at the ward, Evan stood in his way.

“Are you here to visit my wife?”

Stephen nodded. “Is she feeling better?” Concern was written all over his face, and it was apparent that it was sincere.

The expression Stephen had made Evan felt the urge to wipe it away from his face.

“My wife is fine.” Evan emphasized the words “my wife” as though he was announcing who her man was.

Meanwhile, Stephen was speechless.

However, he was glad that she had a man who loved her this much. It was a sight that he, as her father, was happy to see.

A gentle smile surfaced. “I’ll go in and take a look at her.”

“She’s resting right now. Please don’t disturb her. I know you’ve given your blood to her, and I’ll do my best to return the favor. Tell me anything you want from me.”

Stephen fell silent. He furrowed his brows, not understanding why Evan had mentioned the blood transfusion again.

“I told you I don’t need you to return the favor. This is something I should do for her.”

Evan narrowed his eyes and snarled in a frigid tone, “This isn’t something you should do for her. You’re no one to her.” Stop deluding yourself!

A complicated expression flew across Stephen’s eyes. How can I be no one to her? I’m her father.

He had been hesitating on whether he should tell Nicole about their relationship.

He wondered what she would feel when she found out about it.

Will she hold a grudge against me for not being a responsible father all these years? Will she keep a distance from me and refuse my love?

He raised his head. “Can I have a talk with you?”

He realized he could try to find out whether Nicole knew she had a biological father and her reaction to her biological father from Evan.

When Evan looked at his grave demeanor, he sensed that Stephen had something important to tell him. Therefore, he nodded after a moment of silence.

“This way.”

The two reached the hospital’s garden and found an empty spot. Looking serious, Stephen asked when Evan and Nicole met.

“Why are you asking about that?” Evan grunted warily.

You’re trying to find out more about my woman in front of me?

Sensing Evan’s displeasure, Stephen smiled.

“Mr. Seet, don’t be mistaken. I’m only curious. I hope we can have a talk as I’ve given her a blood transfusion.”

The blood transfusion.

It’s true that this is a big favor.

“I knew her since a long time ago.”

Evan gave him a vague reply, not wanting to give him too much information about Nicole.

Stephen froze before he continued, “Was Ms. Lane’s parents good to her when she was younger?”

It was now that Evan sized Stephen up. He felt an abrupt suspicion about Stephen’s question. Does he have other motives?

“Her mother passed away early, and she suffered quite a bit.”
