Evelyn would stare up at him with sparkling eyes. "Why are you home so late? I'm about to starve to death."It drove him wild whenever she did that.Before he ate dinner, he would have his way with her first.Only now did Warren realize that that was happiness. It turned out that he used to have that kind of happiness.But now, he'd ruined it with his own hands.Whenever he remembered these things from the past, his heart would throb in pain.While bent over in pain, he looked at William with a pale face. He said coldly, "I'm not dead yet!"From the way William stared back at him, he wasn't acting like a younger brother at all. Instead, he smirked evilly. "The way I see it, you're already on death's door. Not to mention, does Ms. Evie need to wait for you to die until she can treat someone else kindly? You're not even her man."Warren suddenly felt like this little punk was a bane of existence that Steven sent to him. Wherever it hurt, William would stab him in the same place
Charlie shook his head. "Well, no. She left you at the local hospital."Warren was so mad that he gritted his teeth. Wasn't she afraid that the quacks at the local hospital would kill him? He hadn't known that Evelyn had completely lost all feelings for him. She wasn't giving him any chances to make things up to her.When Charlie saw how his boss' eyes had turned bloodshot from fury, not only did he not feel bad, but he even rejoiced in secret.He had warned Warren so many times, but the latter never paid him any mind.Now, he lost his wife.He was actually looking forward to seeing his boss suffer in his pursuit of his lover.Charlie pretended to comfort him. "Mr. Larkin, Ms. Jefferson must be busy. She and Mr. Yarrow went to the Hawkins Corporation office to officially sign the contract. "The two of them were dressed impeccably. They even made it on television. Many netizens said they have the most chemistry in the legal industry. I'll find you the video I'm talking about."
Evelyn had loved him so deeply before. How could she suddenly stop loving him just because she said so?At that moment, Simon returned from the kitchen with a plate. He looked around the living room and said confusedly, "Didn't Evelyn come home? I thought I heard her voice."Warren walked over to take the plate from Simon. He smiled and said, "She went upstairs to change. I'll call her down later."Simon hesitated. "Maybe you shouldn't. After all, you two have already broken up. Outsiders shouldn't be looking into a woman's room."Although he really liked Warren and knew that Evelyn had had deep feelings for him before, the two of them had ended on bad terms. As her father, he couldn't just forgive Warren so easily.Business was business, but love was love.He wouldn't tie his daughter's feelings to benefits again.When Warren heard the word "outsider", a sour taste filled his mouth.When Simon was discharged from the hospital, he had specifically put on his new clothes just to
Simon and Evelyn both stared at Warren. However, the bastard just casually picked up his glass and took a sip of his drink. His lips curved into a faint smile.Yet, his gaze was undoubtedly sincere.Evelyn deleted his photo. Then, she smiled at her father. "Dad, I think this judge is decent and quite good-looking. If we got together, we'd have something in common too. Please set us up."Simon nodded with pleasure. "Sure, I'll contact him after dinner. You met him before when you were younger. He's always liked you."Then, he turned to Warren and said out of courtesy, "Warren, I know what you're thinking. But you and Evelyn have been on-and-off so many times. I really don't want to see Evie hurt. It's better if you go your separate ways.""Mr. Jefferson, I—"Warren wanted to say something, but Simon interrupted him. "Let's eat. I made Evie's favorite lobster spaghetti and spicy crabs."Warren couldn't help but feel a tightness in his chest when he saw the food. Every dish had sea
Warren replied in a gentle voice, "What is it?"Evelyn pointed at his neck and said, "There's something on your neck."Simon also spotted it. He said in surprise, "Why is it all over your face too? Warren, are you allergic to seafood?"Warren answered steadily, "I am, but I'll just take my medicine when I get home later."Simon immediately stood up. "Allergies can be serious, so we can't take this lightly. Evie, take Warren to the hospital now before something bad happens."If something happened to such an important man at their house, he would never be able to make it up to his family.Evelyn also realized the severity of the situation. She picked up her car keys and said, "Come on, I'll take you to the hospital."Warren wore an apologetic look, but he was secretly delighted.He followed Evelyn to her car. Before he was properly seated, he heard Evelyn's cold and even slightly furious voice. "Warren, you know you're allergic to seafood. Why did you eat the crab? Do you want to
Evelyn suddenly understood what Warren meant by distracting him.She pummeled her fists into his chest. "Warren, what are you doing? Let me go!"Warren's rapid breathing only grew quicker. Being able to hug Evelyn again and smell the floral fragrance on her body drove him crazy.Not caring about the needle in his wrist or Evelyn's punches, he leaned down to capture her lips.Seeing his lips about to touch hers, Evelyn felt humiliated.He was the one who didn't want her anymore. He clearly never even loved her. So why was he refusing to let her go?Evelyn fought against the kiss. In a moment of desperation, she picked up a cup from the bedside table and struck Warren's head with it.When one was agitated, they would use more force than usual.Evelyn, who had always been as gentle as a kitten, actually caused Warren's head to bleed.Warren's movements suddenly stopped. He felt warm blood trickle down the side of his face and down his jaw. Droplets landed on Evelyn's beautiful fa
"Well, no." Charlie shook his head. At most, his girlfriend just gave him a few punches.He wasn't like his boss, who constantly begged for death.Warren gave him a meaningful look. "True love is when blood is spilled. Now, you're nothing but a bed partner. You can't be compared to Evelyn and me."Charlie wondered to himself whether his boss could be any more shameless. He and Evelyn had broken up on such bad terms that Evelyn didn't even want to interact with him anymore. How could he call that true love?Nonetheless, as a wise subordinate, he simply smiled and replied, "That's true, we can't be compared to Ms. Jefferson and you. Your relationship is so turbulent. You keep breaking up and getting back together. Meanwhile, my relationship is dull and no good at all."Warren glanced at him. "Why do I feel like you're insulting me?""Not at all, Mr. Larkin. I'm only telling the truth."As the two spoke, a tall silhouette suddenly appeared at the door. William leaned back against
At 9:00 am, the lights and cameras were all set up in the Larkin Corporation president's office. The reporter asked hesitantly, "Mr. Larkin, do you want to wear a hat and put on some light makeup? You'll look better on screen."When Warren heard that, he glowered coldly at the reporter. "Are you saying I look ugly?"The reporter began to sweat fearfully. "No, you're already the epitome of handsomeness here in Bramston City. It's just that your head bandage is a little too distracting. This episode is about the recovery of our economy after the pandemic. You kind of look like a disaster survivor."The amusement in Warren's eyes dimmed. "Because of this episode, I was too busy to spend time with my girlfriend. That's why I was abused. Is there a problem?"All the staff were dumbfounded, as though they just heard the most salacious scandal.Warren had a girlfriend and a tough one at that.He even suffered domestic abuse at her hands!Oh my god!If word got out to the media, this
