Chapter 845

Did Daddy agree or disagree? Juan began to think over his father’s earlier words.

Since Daddy said ‘okay’ just now, he would probably do it soon.




He then strode out of Evan’s bedroom happily.

After the door was shut, Evan turned to look at the urn of ashes and muttered, “Nicole, you saw Juan,
right? You were the one who had raised him single-handedly. He’s such a sensible boy.”

Then, he paused for a brief moment and urged, “Nicole, let’s go to sleep now.”



After he switched off the lights, he laid on the bed and hugged the urn tightly to sleep.



The night passed by very slowly.

As the moon shone on Evan’s white and fluffy bed, he remained curled up on the bed while he protected
the urn in his arms. His silhouette appeared both lonely and desolate.



At dawn, Evan woke up and got ready to move the urn to Imperial Garden.

The previous night, he had dreamt of Nicole looking down at him in disappointment. He speculated that
she didn’t want to stay in Hillside Villa, afraid that the children might see her sad.





There will be someone to look after her in Imperial Garden, and she wouldn’t have to worry about the
kids seeing her sad. No one would bother her there.

Meanwhile, as Susan watched Evan leave with the urn in his arms, her face turned gloomy.

She believed that the stumbling block between them was nothing more than an urn of ashes and that it
should have been easier for Evan to get over a pile of ashes than an actual person.

She was hopeful that her brighter days were not far away.

For breakfast, she deliberately instructed the cook to prepare the four children’s favorite food.

The butler then informed them that Evan had permitted them to go to school again.

The children were surprised yet elated to hear this news.

“Where’s Daddy?” they asked.

“Your father is busy. Go ahead and have your breakfast first. You don’t have to wait for him today,” Susan
answered.

After the children had finished their breakfast, the driver sent them to school.



On the way to school, Nina asked, “When do you think Daddy will rescue Mommy?”

“It should be very soon. Daddy promised me last night,” explained Juan.

“Really?” Nina responded.



Juan nodded his head. “Of course it’s true. Just wait and see.”

Overwhelmed by the wonderful news, Maya stared at him with teary eyes.

If Daddy can rescue Mommy, I won’t have to be scared of getting beaten by Ms. Susan anymore.

Kyle, on the other hand, remained expressionless. He felt that his father was finally going to return to his
usual self.

As the night fell, the streets were illuminated by the city lights.

Having spent the entire day in Imperial Garden with the urn of ashes, Evan mumbled, “Nicole, I’m
thinking of settling Lane Corporation’s affairs tomorrow. The company was built with your blood, sweat,
and tears. We can’t possibly let it go down the drain! What do you think?”

At that moment, his phone suddenly rang, and he picked up the call impatiently.

“Mr. Seet, there are several documents that require your signature urgently. Could you——” John was
interrupted by Evan before he could finish speaking.

“I’m busy now!” Evan yelled as he hung up the phone.

He wanted to attend to Nicole’s affairs, and he did not have time for anything else.

John looked down at his phone screen and let out a deep sigh.

Mr. Seet must be spending time with Mrs. Seet’s ashes. How much longer is he going to do this?

Meanwhile, Susan was restless as she waited for Evan to return. She felt that she needed to shower him
with love and care at this time to melt his cold heart.

Thus, she mustered up her courage and gave him a call.



When Evan saw the caller ID on his phone screen, he immediately declined the call.

Susan was just thinking about what she could say to him, and she was hoping that he would give her the
chance to speak. However, he merely declined her call!

Could he be busy right now? Perhaps he had accidentally declined my call?

A minute later, Susan called him again.

This time, Evan looked at the caller ID in disgust and answered her call.

“Evan, what time are you coming back?” Susan asked.

“Don’t wait for me, and don’t call me unnecessarily in the future,” he answered coldly.

Nicole won’t be happy that you’re disturbing us.
