Didn't Want Me Before, Can't Have Me Now Chapter 128
Evelyn was traumatized by the kidnapping incident.She kept the lights on the entire night. All she dreamt about was how Warren fought the criminal in that place.In her dream, Warren was gravely wounded and was lying in a pool of blood on the ground.Evelyn sprang up fearfully from her nightmare and screamed, "Warren!"She didn't realize that it was a dream until she opened her eyes.Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, someone opened the door to her bedroom.A tall figure showed up in front of her.Warren hurried to the side of her bed and stroked her head gently. His voice was deep when he spoke."It's okay. It's just a nightmare."Evelyn had just gotten over her shock. She stared dumbly at Warren and asked, "What are you doing here?""I was worried about you feeling scared, so I came to keep you company. You were sleeping, so I didn't come in. I didn't want to disturb you. Instead, I rested on the couch outside."He spoke in such a nonchalant tone, as thoug

Warren's dark brown eyes couldn't conceal his pain.He could no longer find the love Evelyn had for him when he looked into her eyes.His heart ached as if countless needles were stabbing it.His eyes turned a little bloodshot, and his voice became deeper."We never got to have our last meal—our breakup meal—together, and I haven't eaten anything since last night."Will you cook me something? I'll leave after I eat.""Is that necessary?" asked Evelyn while frowning."Yes, Evelyn. I want to eat the meatballs, the carbonara spaghetti, and the breadsticks you make."The dishes Warren requested were what Evelyn used to cook for him.He remembered how his favorite breakfast used to be something entirely different.After Evelyn moved in with him, she would wake up early every day to make him different kinds of breakfasts.Slowly but surely, he found his old preference to be rather bland.He slowly started to prefer the kind of meals that Evelyn would make him.At the time, he as

Warren stared angrily at Evelyn."Evie, my wound opened up. Help me bandage it up, and I'll leave."Evelyn had never known Warren to be that needy.As far as she was concerned, he only ever needed her in bed and wouldn't let her leave. He was distant the rest of the time.That was why she was the one who would go to him in the past.Evelyn couldn't believe how shameless he had become. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and said, "The public hospital is on the second building to the right. You can get treated there."Evelyn pushed all the luggage bags out of the door, then heartlessly kicked Warren out. She even slammed the door with a loud 'bang'.Warren stared at the luggage bags Evelyn had thrown out. Sorrow and exasperation filled in his heart.Just then, the door to the opposite unit opened.William had a cool, cozy outfit on as he leaned against the door.A mocking grin showed up."Oh, look who it is. Isn't this my all-mighty cousin? What happened? Did Evie k

There was no doubt that that case allowed Evelyn's name to shine across the legal industry once more.Many netizens started writing fan fiction about her relationship with Warren as well.Evelyn thought that the buzz would dissipate naturally after a few days. To her surprise, she learned upon waking that her phone had received dozens of notifications overnight. All of them were from huge social platforms.Seth called her before she had the chance to take a closer look at it.He sounded worried when he warned her, "Don't go online, Evelyn."Evelyn knew that something was wrong the second she heard those words.Worried, she frowned as she asked, "Did something about me get exposed?"Evelyn knew the most embarrassing thing about her was that her mother was Xena. If that truth had been exposed, the impact on her would be terrible.Seth hesitated for a moment before answering, "Xena shared a video saying that you refused to take care of her. She also claimed that you sent her to a

Evelyn glared evilly. "And then what? She'll try to commit suicide, and you'll get so freaked out that you'd risk your life to save her again? Why am I paying for the debt you owe her, Warren?""No, Evie. I will never care for her again, nor will I let her hurt you anymore."Warren noticed that Evelyn's shoulders were trembling nonstop. He was so heartbroken that he held her in his arms.He kept stroking her back as he did so.Warren was worried that Evelyn's illness would act up once more. He was also terrified that she would cut him off completely after an incident like that.He had never been that scared of anything before.There was no telling how Evelyn got so strong, but she managed to push Warren away in one quick shove.Her eyes glowed with the kind of pain and disappointment that could not be hidden.She pointed at the door and firmly demanded, "Leave. I don't want to see you right now.""Evie, I just want to keep you company."Warren held Evelyn's hand. His eyes glo

Evelyn continued, "There's something I never told you. Xena came looking for me ages ago. She even went to Larkin Corporation to become a cleaner. She threatened to commit suicide at the company's annual party and forced me to give her money."It got so bad that my depression returned. Dad, I don't want to be at her mercy anymore. Ripping this band-aid off will hurt, but it will be much better than avoiding it."Hearing those words had Simon teary-eyed.He didn't know just what his daughter had to endure while he was sick.He tapped Evelyn's shoulder and reassured her, "I'll be with you every step of the way. There's no need to be scared of anything."…After Warren left Evelyn's place, he drove to the Sullivans' place right away.The black car moved quickly as lightning as it zipped to its destination.A tall, muscular figure with a terrifying scowl stepped out of the car. He made his way to the living room on the first floor.Johnny was sitting on the couch and reading the n

Following the voice, everyone turned to see Chet standing by the door in a grey suit.His eyes shone with the kind of disappointment and heartache that could not be hidden.He made his way to Clara and pointed at Xena who trailed behind him. Then, he demanded, "Who is this woman? And why is she in our basement?"Chet looked like a warm and graceful man, but Clara knew that that was just surface level.She knew her brother could be as merciless as Warren if he wanted to.Chet would not have been able to gain a foothold within the Sullivan family at such a young age if that had not been the case.Clara cried and shook her head. "Chet, it's all because Warren doesn't want me anymore. He ignored my survival for Evelyn, and I was infuriated. The only reason I went to Xena was to exact my revenge on Evelyn," said Clara.As she cried, she turned to Warren and said, "Warren, ever since I was a baby in my mother's womb, you've said you wanted to marry me. Why do you not want me anymore?

Warren licked his teeth and then grinned evilly."If that's the case, then don't blame me for being merciless. The woman I love was hurt, and I can't let things slide.""Warren, don't forget that Clara almost died all those years ago to save you. She lost the ability to conceive because of it. You can't do this to her."Warren's gaze turned more and more cruel. He countered, "She repeatedly hurt the woman I love. Do you think I'd care about what she did for me after all this?"His words were like lightning. It mercilessly struck Clara down.She couldn't believe that Warren would ignore his life's debt to her for Evelyn's sake.Clara felt utterly defeated once it dawned on her that she could no longer use it to force his hand.The only play she had was gone.Under those new circumstances, how could she get close to Warren again? How could she make him forgo everything just to save her?Clara knew that she couldn't possibly concede so easily.She suddenly stopped crying but rem

Every word Linda spoke conveyed Warren's trust in her and disdain for Evelyn. She was suggesting that he didn't even want to come in person to visit Simon.Evelyn could tell what Linda was thinking. A faint, cold smile curved at the corner of her lips.She took out her phone from her bag, looked at Linda, and said, "Is that so? Then, I should personally call Mr. Larkin to thank him for remembering my father's kindness toward him."After she finished speaking, she started pretending to make a phone call.Linda immediately spoke up to stop her. "Mr. Larkin is very busy and currently in a meeting, so please do not disturb him.""Is it that he's busy, or is it that you don't want him to know you're visiting my father without his permission?"Linda realized that her thoughts were seen through by Evelyn, so she decided not to pretend anymore.A slight smirk appeared at the corner of her mouth. "Evelyn, back then, you took so much from Warren without regard for his well-being. Your hea

Evelyn immediately took out a piece of tissue to help Simon wipe away his tears. She said softly, "Dad, I know you have a lot you want to say to Ms. Dawson, so please wake up soon. We're all waiting for you."Simon's eyelashes fluttered slightly, as if he was agreeing to the promise.After that, Erica took out silver needles from her bag and inserted them into the acupuncture points on Simon's head.…One hour later, the first acupuncture session was complete.Evelyn asked with some concern, "Ms. Dawson, how is my dad?"Erica was tidying up while speaking, "His condition is better than I expected. At this rate, he should be showing more obvious responses in about a week."Hearing these words, Evelyn looked at her excitedly. "Really? That's great! My dad has hope now!"Ms. Dawson, you've been running around all day. Let me take you to eat first, then you can rest at the hotel."Just as she finished speaking, Simon grabbed Erica's hand.Seeing this scene, Evelyn's eyes widened

The room suddenly became so quiet that they could even hear each other's breathing.Tears welled up in Erica's eyes as she stared at Simon. She only went to his bedside, taking a few difficult steps, after several minutes.Erica gently placed her fingertips on Simon's wrist as tears fell onto his arm.Watched her unusual reaction, Evelyn finally remembered where she had seen Erica before.There was a picture of a women hidden in Simon's private photo album. If Evelyn wasn't mistaken, that woman is Erica.Simon had kept that photo all along, while Erica teared up upon seeing him. This kind of thing usually happened between couples.When Evelyn thought about it, she suddenly understood everything.Erica was someone Simon had been in love with many years ago. The unfortunate couple was separated initially because of Xena's scheme.Evelyn walked slowly to the bedside, patted Erica on the shoulder, and asked, "Do you know my dad, Dr. Dawson?"Erica wiped away her tears and sighed.

Erica was dressed very plainly, but her delicate features still stood out. The red mole near the corner of her eye felt especially familiar to Evelyn.Her first thought was that she had definitely seen Erica somewhere before.She calmly approached with a smile and said, "Dr. Dawson, we're here to fetch you to treat my father."Erica greeted them with a smile. "Come inside and have some water first. I'll go pack up, and we can leave in a short while."They followed her and entered the courtyard once more.While packing her things, Erica asked, "So, which one of you is Sophie's friend?"William, who had always been carefree and uninhibited, immediately stood up and respectfully said to Erica, "It's me. I met her in Zyldrica."Erica looked him up and down, her eyes revealing a hint of delight. "You seem very handsome and look spirited, young man."William's smile was somewhat stiff. It was the first time someone had ever complimented him, and he didn't know how to react.When fac

Evelyn stepped forward and said, "But Warren and the others have been doing everything they can to find you and get you out."Alfred shook his head. "If I leave, that bastard will know that you all have discovered his secret. All your subsequent plans will fail."I'm staying here since he won't do anything to me anyway. I still have something I haven't given him yet. How else do you think I've lived until now?"You all should leave quickly. Just pretend nothing happened. My granddaughter and I will handle that jerk ourselves.""Mr. Miller Senior—"Evelyn wanted to say something else, but Nathan, who was behind her, grabbed her abruptly.He furrowed his brow and looked at Alfred. "Evelyn, Mr. Miller Senior is right. If he leaves, Warren's plan will be ruined. Don't worry, I'll assign someone to keep an eye on this place and make sure nothing will happen to him."Evelyn was eager to save Alfred so that Warren could launch a full-scale attack on Russell. Only then could they reunit

Elma shook her head in disbelief. "That's impossible. You're talking nonsense. My dad was killed by Chester long ago. The person who killed him is not Sir."Evelyn gave a calm smile. "He says he's protecting you, but in reality, he has always treated you as a pawn to control Iris. Otherwise, your mother wouldn't risk her life so willingly for him."I could never understand why Iris would obey someone so willingly. But then I met you, and everything became clear to me."Have you never wondered why your mother looks so much like Mrs. Larkin? That person definitely won't tell you that they are twin sisters."You're also the one keeping an eye on this old man's biological daughter. That person has known about this secret for a long time but has kept it from Iris to fully control her."Whether it's your father, Ronald, or your mother, Iris, their tragic lives were all caused by that 'Sir' you mentioned. Do you want to follow in their footsteps?"Hearing these words, Elma glared at Eve

The gears lunged toward them, like a giant shark with its jaws wide open.Just then, Nathan suddenly held Evelyn in his arms. In a low and hoarse voice filled with suppressed emotion, he called out softly, "Evie."His grip around her was tight. It felt as if he wanted to fuse Evelyn into himself. At the same time, he pressed a button that was a disgusting shade of yellow with his other hand.Everyone was wide-eyed with fear, staring intently at the turning gears.If the wrong button was pressed, not only would the gears not stop, but other traps in this room might be activated. They were in double jeopardy, and there was no escape for them.At that critical moment, the rumbling sound of the gears gradually diminished until it faded away entirely. The gears stopped just short of three feet away from them.Evelyn looked up at Nathan, her eyes wide with shock, and her voice trembling. "Nathan, we're saved."Nathan smiled and gently brushed her hair. "I told you, I won't let anythin

The elderly man was none other than Warren's grandfather, Alfred. But wasn't Alfred being held in Milania by Russell? Moreover, he had been poisoned and was supposed to be unconscious.Yet, the elderly man before them was sitting at a table, leisurely playing a game of chess.Evelyn didn't have time to think much. She pressed the switch next to her, opened the door, and rushed in.Just as they went in, the glass door automatically closed behind them, and the entire room started to slowly descend—right into where the gears were turning.Evelyn looked at Nathan with some panic. "I think we've been tricked."Nathan looked at a control panel in the room and said, "Don't worry. This is the control console. As long as we find the button to stop the gears from turning, we'll be fine."After speaking, he carefully examined the central control panel.At that moment, Elma's laughter echoed again in the room. "Evelyn, this control panel has 81 buttons, and each one will trigger a different

Elma's eyes seemed so familiar to Evelyn that they left a deep impression in her mind.When Evelyn was deep in thought, she suddenly opened her eyes wide as a name popped into her mind—Iris Lindt.Elma's eyes and nose looked a lot like Iris'. Could it be that they were related?Evelyn tried to stand up and look for William and Nathan, but her hands and feet were tied, making moving impossible.She softly called out, "William? Mr. Holland?"There was no response, so she tried calling out again. This time, a deep, hoarse voice rang out close by. "Evelyn, I'm over here."Nathan's voice was urgent and full of concern. In the darkness, Evelyn almost mistook it again for Warren's voice.She responded, "Mr. Holland, where is William?"Nathan kicked William beside him and said, "He's next to me. The drug seems to be affecting him more. Don't be afraid, I'll be over there right away."After speaking, Nathan crawled toward Evelyn. Seeing her pale face, he felt a bit concerned and asked,
