Chapter 564

Yoda could sense John’s hesitation. “Have you been affected by Davin’s attitude after working for him
for too long a time?”

At the mention of Davin, John steeled himself to list down all Davin’s mistakes and unethical actions to
Evan.

At last, he came to a conclusion. “Mr. Seet, there are people who’ve been eyeing to usurp the control of
Seet Group recently. Although Mr. Davin has improved a lot to become a better businessman, I’m
afraid he still isn’t shrewd enough to fend off the threats.”

“I’ll go back and deal with them after I finish settling my stuff here. In the meantime, this is a good
chance for Davin to gain some experience too.”

John did not respond to what he said.

I’m sure Mr. Seet’s return is going to frighten them out of their wits!

But before that can happen, I’m worried that Mr. Davin will be reduced to a battered soul having to deal
with the villains.

“By the way Mr. Seet, you revealed your face to Daphne just now. Won’t you be worried that…”

“I did that just to make sure she remembers me as the bodyguard of the estate. That identity is going to
help in a lot of ways.”

John immediately looked enlightened. “Oh, I see. I thought you were trying to seduce Daphne just
now!”

Evan whirled around and sized John up suspiciously.



Has John been learning all the wrong stuff from Davin?

Did he actually hear how ridiculous he sounds?

A girl like Daphne clearly isn’t worth my effort to do something like that!

Just then, Juan and Kyle were making their way to Yoda’s room as they thought of trying to collect
more clues on Nicole’s father from him. When they reached his room, they happened to catch John
saying the last sentence.

Juan furrowed his brows in displeasure. “Did John just say that Daddy is trying to seduce the bad
woman?”

Kyle nodded at him. “I heard the same thing too.”

Nina and Maya, who had been trailing behind the boys, heard what they said too.

When they were back to their room, Maya approached Nicole to ask about what she heard. “Mommy,
what does it mean when someone tries to seduce the other person?”

Nicole looked at the chubby girl who was blinking her innocent eyes at her. Why is a little girl like her
curious about stuff like that?

How should I phrase it so that she can understand my explanation?

After some contemplation, Nicole’s eyes glimmered with inspiration. Then, she crouched down next to
the little girl to answer her question.

“That’s what a boy does when he wants to fool a girl into doing bad things. So, if you meet a boy who
does that to you, you have to stay away from him, okay?”



I can’t believe I actually have to start worrying about my daughters meeting jerks when they are still at
such a tender age. Oh, parenting is so hard!

Maya, who did not look like she fully understood Nicole’s explanation, muttered to herself, “Oh, so does
it mean that Daddy is trying to fool the bad woman into doing bad things?”

Daddy?

Nicole managed to capture the most crucial piece of information and she immediately probed Maya
about it, “Daddy? What has this got to do with Daddy?”

Staring at her with her huge sparkling eyes, Maya told Nicole in a solemn tone, “Daddy has got
everything to do with this because he’s going to seduce Daphne.”

Nicole eyed Maya disbelievingly. “How did you find out about that?”

“The four of us overheard that when Uncle Lindt was talking to Daddy in his room with the door closed!”

Nicole was rendered speechless.

How Maya described it made John and Evan sound like perverts who were up to no good.

After hearing what Maya said, Nicole’s face grew increasingly sullen and her fists were clenched
tighter. Seems like Evan has another facet to his personality which I have no knowledge of. It’s about
time I make some effort to look into it. If Evan is really doing the thing Maya just said…

She gritted her teeth resentfully and her knuckles cracked as her fists were clenched tightly.

“Maya, Mommy is going to assign a very important task to you. Do you think you can handle it?”

Seeing how serious Mommy sounded, Maya nodded as she felt honored to be given the task.



“I can. Mommy, what do I have to do?”

“Can you help me keep an eye on Daddy when I’m not around?”

Maya was slightly taken aback to hear that as tasks like that were usually done by Juan before this. Am
I capable of doing it? I can’t run fast with my chubby and short legs.

“Mommy, why don’t you let Juan do it? He can run faster than the bunnies.”

Indeed, Juan could move faster and was better suited to the task. However, he was also sharp enough
to know that he would be betraying his Daddy by carrying out the task. Thus, Nicole felt safer to assign
the task to Maya, who was less scheming and honest.

“Mommy, I can help you with that!” Just then, Nina approached Nicole and volunteered to take on the
task.
