Stephen didn’t want to answer her daughter’s question as it was obviously a lie fabricated by Levant to fool her. However, because of the promise he made to Levant, Stephen could not give Nicole a truthful answer. Thus, he gave her a vague reply, “Back then, you two wanted to keep your engagement personal. I have no idea when you two decided to get engaged.”

Huh?

Getting engaged is such an important life decision! How could I not tell my dad about it?

Nicole was baffled by the choices her old self-made.

All of a sudden, she thought of all those touching tales of sacrificial love, just like that of Romeo and Juliet. She wondered what Levant had done in the past to win her love, and whether if she and Levant were a match made in heaven. Is our love really that sacred that we have to hide it from our parents?

Alas, Nicole was unable to recall anything from her past.

She made a mental note to ask Levant when he came to visit her.

Nicole bore a pensive look on her face as she stepped out of the dining room.
