Chapter 739

Nina glared at all the busybodies indignantly as she stood out with her fists clenched tightly. She roared
at them, “What nonsense! My Mommy was not an abandoned woman. She is the daughter of a duke,
and her status is a lot higher than Evan’s. There was absolutely no need for her to rely on him at all!”

“Say all those nonsense again, and my fist will find its way to you!” Juan glowered at the group when all
he wanted to do was to beat them up.




“Hmph, look at the wild little bastards. Who are you to be so arrogant when your Daddy doesn’t even
want you anymore?”

Juan sent them a flying kick which in turn sent all of them into hiding immediately.

While they avoided him, their mouths did not remain idle and continued scolding the children incessantly.



“Bastards, even your daddy doesn’t want you…”



It was as if all these harsh words were being replayed on a loop at top volume in Maya’s ears.

She was reminded of how Sheryl had scolded her that way too. As she rubbed her chubby little hands
with a completely aggrieved look on her face, she failed to understand why these adults were scolding
them the way Sheryl did as well.





Soon, the innocent little Maya could no longer handle all the insults that were lambasted at them. Tears
were brimming in her eyes for a long time and she could not take it anymore. Hence, she cried out loud,
“Wah!!!”

Juan, Kyle and Nina were chasing after the group to beat them up. Nicole knew very well that this group
had received orders to come up and commit slander against them. There was no point trying to argue
with them and she could not be bothered to talk to them either. Therefore, she picked up her phone to
call the police.



It was only then that the group dispersed.

With her eyes on the passers-by who didn’t know any better and yet were gossiping about them, Nicole
picked up Maya who was sobbing profusely, and walked out of the mall with three other little angry
children in tow.



Sheryl recorded the entire incident from a dark spot nearby. With a satisfied smile, she made a phone
call.

“Nicole Lane, after this, everyone will know what kind of person you are! This is the price you have to pay
for slapping me! Let’s see who has the last laugh now, huh?”

Such sensational news immediately appeared in the hottest news reels, and became the most-watched
news of the moment.

Over to the other side.



When she found out that Evan was going to attend Yage Group’s cocktail party, Susan put on a perfectly
made up face before coming along as well.

She looked especially attractive standing next to Evan.

“This must be Mrs. Seet. You are gorgeous.”

“Thank you. You are beautiful too.”

“Mrs. Seet matches Mr. Seet perfectly.”

“Yes, it takes someone like Mrs. Seet to match Mr. Seet.”

“……”

Susan was overjoyed to hear all those flattery. She then deliberately held onto Evan’s arm with every
intention to show off their affection in public.

However, Evan looked annoyed and moved his arm away silently before walking away grimly.

Embarrassed, Susan was taken aback. She turned and saw the alluring red wine on the table. An
flirtatious smile broke across her face as she poured a glass and walked towards Evan.

“Evan, is there something on your mind?”

“No,” Evan replied to her coldly. He looked down and could not even be bothered to look at her.

Susan barely paid attention to that and gently laid the wine glass before him. “Have some wine, Evan.
This is quite a good one.”

The ruby red liquid emanated temptation under the bright lights.



Evan remembered that Nicole liked this red wine too. Oh, how he wished that the woman before him was
Nicole instead.

He looked up and greeted Susan with an icy cold face.

His silence made Susan freeze for a while as well. Then, she picked up the red wine and called out to
him seductively, “Evan, I poured this myself. Come on, have some.”

With narrowed pupils, Evan took over the wine and downed the entire glass.

Then, he placed the wine glass on the table and glared at her. “This is not a suitable place for you. Go
home.”

Susan was taken aback. Instead of whining and begging, she merely reminded him gently, “Alright, but
don’t drink too much, Evan. I’ll head home first, and do come back early.”
