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.
