Chapter 1061

Meanwhile in the dining room, Nicole had a smile on her face as she enjoyed the food prepared by her
daughters.

“Your cooking has improved a lot, Maya!”




“I’m just glad you like it, Mommy! I’ll adjust the recipes according to your physical condition, so just tell
me what you like to eat!”

Nicole nodded happily, but she didn’t really have the appetite to eat much. “Mommy can’t finish it all,
Maya. I’ll go check on your Daddy’s illness, okay?”

Maya was surprised. Illness? What illness does Daddy have?



“What happened to Daddy?”



Huh? Does Maya not know about Evan’s poisoning? Is he hiding it from her, or was the whole poisoning
thing a lie to begin with?

“Well… I’ll find out after I check his pulse, Maya.”



She then ran upstairs with Maya, only to find Evan lying in bed while Nina kept crying beside him.

“What’s wrong, Nina?”





“Daddy coughed up blood, Mommy!”

“He what?”

Both Nicole and Maya panicked when they saw his pale face and the bloodstains on the corner of his
mouth.

She quickly checked his pulse and frowned at how strange it was.

I’ve never seen anyone’s pulse alternate between being strong and weak like this… What kind of
symptom is this?

Unable to determine his condition, Nicole decided to call her mentor Wesley for help.

After hearing about the symptoms, Wesley said, “That’s an indicator of severe poisoning. He is in critical
condition and must be rushed to a hospital right now!”



“Nina, have the servants take your Daddy to the hospital!”

“I’m on it!”

With that, Nina ran downstairs while Maya looked at Evan with teary eyes. How did Daddy collapse all of
a sudden? He was just fine a while ago!

“What happened, Daddy? Can you hear me? Daddy, please say something…”

She kept sobbing as she called out to him, but Evan kept quiet as he had to make it look
convincing. Nina knows I took some medicine to make my pulse irregular, so she can explain it to Maya



later…

Moments later, the servants arrived to take him to the hospital.

Nicole put on a face mask and a large coat with two layers of shirts underneath before getting into the
car with her daughters. This should hide how skinny I am…

Nina felt her heart ache when she saw Nicole like this. “Mommy…” She called out while holding her by
the hand.

“Don’t worry, Mommy’s fine. You be sure to take good care of your Daddy when we get to the hospital,
okay?”

Nina nodded. “I will, Mommy.”

Maya’s eyes were filled with concern as she held Evan’s arm tightly and prayed. Please be alright,
Daddy… Please be alright…

Evan was rushed to the emergency room upon arrival at the hospital while Nicole waited outside with
Nina and Maya.

Maya looks really worried… Should I tell her the truth now? Nina thought to herself.

She then turned to look at Nicole who was pacing about absent-mindedly and decided to drop the
idea. On second thought, that can wait… Daddy’s efforts would’ve been for nothing if Mommy hears us!

The doctor came out after a long wait and walked up to Nicole. “Mrs. Seet, your husband is in critical
condition. We’ll need to get him hospitalized so we can monitor his vitals at all times.”

“Alright, sure. You’ve got to save him, doctor!” Nicole said.
