Evan simply nodded and handed her the documents that needed to be translated.

Nicole sat before the computer and threw herself into her work. Evan watched as she glanced at the documents every so often while typing away feverishly on the computer.

He smirked and walked over to her.

“Beware of your posture.”

Nicole almost jumped out of her skin at his voice. What’s wrong with my posture? she thought as she looked up at him.

Besides, why is he so concerned about my posture? I’m already sitting up straight!

Despite everything, she gave him a professional smile and thanked him for his concern before turning back to face the computer.

Did she just thank me?

Evan narrowed his eyes and began to pick on every little detail in her translation, from fonts to formatting.

Nicole began to get frustrated.

What did I ever do to you?

I treated you like royalty for the past few days!

Noticing her silence, Evan smirked. I bet she’s reaching her limit!

Suddenly, Nicole stood up and looked him in the eyes. “Mr. Seet, I would appreciate it if you could write down everything you would like me to accomplish. I’ll try my best to satisfy your requests.”

“…”

Why is she still so calm?

Evan sneered and said, “I just want you to complete the translation while doing a handstand.”

Handstand?

He’s telling me to type on a keyboard while doing a handstand?

Is he messing with me?

Is he even sane?

Who even gives such strange orders to their translator?

He’s definitely stirring up trouble!

I would have killed him if I didn’t know that he was the boy!

She briefly considered telling him to demonstrate the position for her while berating the hell out of him, but she tucked that thought away quickly.

She had to respect him, as he was the boy from all those years ago. Besides, she needed to keep her distance from him.

Nicole took a deep breath to calm herself down and faced him with a gentle smile. “Apologies, Mr. Seet. I cannot accomplish that.”

Having expected her to lose her temper, Evan was taken aback by her response.

Did she really change?

He stared at her for another five seconds before returning to his seat in silence.

Not another word was exchanged between them until Nicole completed the translation and showed it to him.

She left the room to go to the rear house soon after to avoid annoying him.

What’s wrong with him? Is he crazy?

“He probably needs to visit the psychiatrist…” she muttered to herself before shaking her head vigorously.

Men can be such erratic beings!

Nicole started to prepare dinner for the kids as soon as she returned to the rear house. Evan had mentioned hiring a maid to take care of the kids, but he seemed to have forgotten about it.

She decided not to ask him about it. After all, she loved making her kids’ favorite food.

She asked her kids what they would like to have for dinner before walking into the kitchen.

Halfway through her preparations, a certain unwelcomed visitor barged into the kitchen and started to berate her.
