Chapter 930

“John managed to get his hands on the security footage from Mr. Seet’s office,” Sheila said, glancing at
Nicole. “Susan had given Mr. Seet the bottle not too long ago, and he’s kept it in the drawer ever
since.”

Nicole’s face was a ghastly shade of white while her eyes were swollen and teary. After a long period of
silence, she managed to squeeze out a sorrowful grin and said, “Maybe you’re right, Sheila…maybe
we were never meant to be…”

Sheila frowned. “Are you saying that you still don’t trust him?”

Nicole fell silent.

She found the events from the previous night highly suspicious, and it made her have second thoughts
about her treatment towards Evan.

It looks like this must have been a misunderstanding…

“Are you done? You may take your leave now,” Nicole said calmly.

Sheila was taken aback by her words, but she had no choice but to take it. She stood up and let out a
sigh as a strange feeling of irritation began to bubble up inside of her.

Why can’t she just forgive Mr. Seet? Can’t she see just how much he loves her? Why is she so
stubborn and stuck in her own ways? Maybe she didn’t deserve all that love after all…

Maybe separation was the way to go after all.

As Nicole watched Sheila stomp out of the room, tears began to spill out of her eyes.

Her tears slid into her mouth, and it tasted bittersweet.



She felt bitter about how badly she had treated Evan, and how she had gotten him into so much trouble
because of all the misunderstandings. Maybe we weren’t fated to be together.

However, she was moved by the intense love he had for her.

I’m sorry, Evan. I’ll do everything to rescue you and make sure you leave this safe and sound, but I
don’t think we can be lovers anymore.

“So? How did it go?” Davin asked the moment Sheila returned. “Is Nicole going to help us save my
brother?”

Sheila glared at him as her temper flared. “What kind of sister-in-law is she? She didn’t even bat an
eyelid when I told her that story! She even thinks that she isn’t fated to be with Mr. Seet! Why is she so
cold-hearted?”

Davin’s face fell. What now? With Nicole refusing to help, how are we going to save Evan?

John had a deep frown on his face as well. After a moment of silence, he looked up and said, “I think
it’s time we gather our forces and infiltrate the Wicked Palace, Mr. Davin.”

“Wait! We can’t make my brother’s predicament public! The Seet Group and my family will suffer a
huge blow from this!” Davin exclaimed. “We need to come up with another plan.”

“What plan? What options do we even have at this point?” John asked, panicking.

“The estate,” Davin answered with a gloomy face and knotted brows.

“The estate?” John repeated anxiously.

Stephen had been released from the Wicked Palace by Evan posing as Levant. Even though his power
was never to be underestimated, John was reluctant to place all bat on him to win in the battle against



the Wicked Palace.

In fact, Nicole was dead set on marrying Levant, who was Stephen’s adopted son and future son-in-
law. John figured that he would be torn between helping his own family members and Evan, who was
an outsider.

John decided to voice his concerns to Davin, who pondered over them for a moment. “It doesn’t hurt to
try, I guess. Didn’t Evan let Sir Musgrave out of the Wicked Palace while he was impersonating as
Levant? I’m sure he won’t mind helping us out in return.”

John nodded in agreement.

Sheila slammed her hand on the table. “That’s right, Davin! Having him return the favor would even
things out. Your brother would have nothing to do with the estate or Nicole once that happens!”

Davin turned around to shoot Sheila a look. “That’s up to my brother to decide. Besides, I don’t think
Ms. Nicole is as heartless as you think.”
