The other kids said that they had no idea either.
The woman in question, Nicole, wanted to force herself to fall out of love with Evan and accept the fact that she would spend the rest of her life with Levant. Hence, she decided to be more proactive and went to look for Levant that morning with the intention of having breakfast with him.
She was walking out of the kitchen with a tray of breakfast and rushing to Levantâs place at that moment.
When she reached the living room, she placed the breakfast on the table before walking up the stairs. She stood by the bedroom door and knocked on it.
âWho is it?â
âItâs me. L-letâs have breakfast together.â
Evan was surprised to hear Nicoleâs voice.
Evan hadnât had Nina put his make-up on, so he was not âLevantâ at that moment. He couldnât afford to let Nicole see him and discover his true identity.
Sheâs still coming over to have breakfast with me after what I did to her last night? I guess I was too lenient, and she hasnât learned her lesson yet! I will have to punish her more severely when I have the chance to do so.
Evan cleared his throat and tried to sound just like Levant when he said, âIâm not hungry, Nicole. Go ahead and have breakfast without me.â
Nicole frowned. I rushed all the way here to have breakfast with him, and he rejected me?
âNo, itâs okay. Iâll wait for you. I want to have breakfast with you!â insisted Nicole.
She had already decided that she would be proactive and would force herself to fall for Levant. Hence, she refused to back down at the first sign of trouble.
Evan looked troubled. I guess Iâll have to prepare a Levant mask and put it on standby for emergencies like these.
âOpen the door, Levant. Youâre not still lying on your bed, are you?â
âNicole, I have a headache, and I really canât move. Iâll go spend some time with you after I get better.â
What kind of headache is so severe that he canât even get out of bed?
âIâll go get the doctor over. I actually saw him when I was on my way over.â
After Nicole left, Evan went to Nina immediately to get her to put the make-up on him. Evan also instructed Darius and Darius to prepare a Levant mask.
When Nicole returned with the doctor, she saw that âLevantâ had just returned home as well.
âD-didnât you say that your headache is so severe that you canât get out of bed?â
âYeah, but the cool breeze cleared my head and blew it all away.â
Nicole was speechless at that.
âPlease give him a thorough examination anyway, doctor.â
The doctor ran some test and reassured that everything was fine. Nicole turned to âLevantâ and sighed. âThis is the first time I heard of the wind curing a headache.â
Evan cleared his throat awkwardly before suggesting, âLetâs have breakfast now.â
When the two of them were having breakfast together, Evan stared deep into her eyes and said, âNicole, if you really want to spend every second of every moment with me, why donât you just move in with me?â
âI want to start with having breakfast together, Levant. Letâs wait until weâve developed a rapport before we move in together. Letâs just take things slow and I hope you wonât rush me,â replied Nicole after she calmed her wild heart down.
Evanâs gaze turned darker. My, my, Nicole Lane, so youâre really going all out to fall in love with Levant, huh?
Raw anger shot through him.
He got up and walked to Nicole before caressing her beautiful face with his fingers.
âNicole, I feel like we should do some activities to bond and build a relationship. What do you say?â
Nicoleâs heart thumped wild with worries. Levantâs not thinking about doing it, is he?
Nicole was still trying to figure out what the man was planning to do when Evanâs hand started to get a little touchy-feely.
What the hell? Canât he act a little more decently? Must he be so dirty-minded?
Nicole closed her eyes and gritted her teeth as she forced herself to stay put. Maybe if I can get used to his touch and not get repulsedâ¦
The thought never fully crossed Nicoleâs mind before she stood up and fled the scene as if her life depended on it.
What the heck! I feel like I was committing a sin, and my heart almost exploded. Did that bast*rd, Evan Seet, cast some sort of spell on me? Why am I so repulsed by another manâs touch?
Evanâs sexy lips curved upwards when he saw the woman fleeing with fear pumping through her veins. His eyes shimmered with a hint of glee.
Evan was secretly delighted and curious at the same time. I wonder what Nicole will do next?
Meanwhile, Damien and Darius left to prepare a Levant mask as Evan had instructed.
Susan had been monitoring the Darkmoon Manor from a distance, so when the men returned, she slipped into the place without them noticing.
