Chapter 455

Lisa wouldn’t have insisted on sharing the same car had she known this would happen.

She pretty much only had herself to blame now.

After they entered the car, Sophia began to wave the ungutted fish in front of Lisa.

“You’ll have to eat this fish sooner or later, so you may as well eat it now.”

Lisa glanced at the fish, which was now staring back at her wide-eyed. “I-I-I’m not eating that!” she
stammered.

“Dad says you have to.”

Sophia deliberately brought the fish toward Lisa’s mouth. The fishy stench made the latter’s stomach
churn.

“Are you okay, Aunt Lisa? She can’t eat this fish, Ms. Sophia—”

Sophia’s eyes darted to Sofie, who was seated next to Lisa.

“Then why did you try to let Nicole eat it?”

“I… This is all a misunderstanding. I—”

“Another word of nonsense from you, and I’ll let you eat this fish in her place!”

Sofie kept her mouth shut after glancing at the fish and Lisa.

The car was stopped countless times on the way back to the Seet Residence. Every time Sophia
waved the fish in front of Lisa, the latter would exit the car and throw up.



Lisa looked completely ashen by the time they arrived at the Seet Residence, as though she had just
gone through hell.

“I want to go home!” she wailed. “Take me home, Adam!”

“What happened?” Adam asked, concerned.

“That fish! Sophia tried to make me eat the—”

Before she could tattle, Sophia picked the fish up again.

“The fish is right here. You haven’t eaten it yet! I’ll bring it over to your place and watch you eat it.”

Once again, the smell of the fish wafted into Lisa’s nostrils.

“Ughh…”

Feeling disgusted again, Lisa hurriedly dragged Adam away. “Let’s go! Now!”

I’ll lock the door once we get home, and won’t open it no matter who comes!

Sofie hastily followed them.

Sophia was overjoyed to see the trio scurry off like rats.

She then tossed the bag containing the fish onto the ground. “Get rid of this,” she instructed the maids.

“Yes, Ma’am.”

After bringing Russell back to his room, Jonathan began to ask what had happened earlier.

If someone else had killed Mom, who could it be?



Russell sighed. “Evan will take care of this.”

“Who on earth did it?”

After a few moments of deliberation, Russell finally answered, “Zane Lane.”

“It was him?”

Jonathan was taken aback. “But he’s Nicole’s father, so it still has something to do with her—”

“Zane will pay for what he did to your mother, Jonathan. As for Nicole, Evan truly loves her, and she’s
also the mother of the four children. Let’s not drag her into this matter anymore.”

“But still, she’s—”

“That’s enough! You’re well aware of Evan’s temper. Do you intend to let him spend the rest of his life
on his own?”

Jonathan said nothing more. All he wanted now was for Zane to pay for his sins.

Night fell.

After picking the children up, Evan and Nicole headed straight for Imperial Garden.

The villa had an exceptionally unique, fresh, and unconventional style. It’s simple yet symmetrical
designs were well-integrated, and the building’s interior and exterior complemented each other well.

Not only was it cleverly designed and comfortable, but it could also make one’s heart flutter with joy.

The children were elated to see the beautiful villa.

Kyle and Juan began to run around. It wasn’t long until they vanished without a trace.



Maya danced with delight. “It’s so pretty, Daddy!” she exclaimed with wide eyes.

“Do you like it, Maya?”

“I do!”

Those twinkling eyes of hers showed exactly how she felt.

Nina walked along while asking, “There are so many rooms. Will I get one just for me to play with my
makeup?”

“You can do that in any room you like. The villa belongs to you guys,” replied Evan.
