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 Jefferson's whole body was flushed a faint pink color after a steamy lovemaking session.Warren Larkin held her in his arms, his finger gently tracing her facial features. There was a trace of tenderness in his dark eyes that she'd never seen before.Although he had been extraordinarily rough with her, Evelyn still felt loved. However, before her lust even dissipated, Warren's phone started ringing loudly.Evelyn shivered when she saw the number on the screen. She hugged Warren a little tighter and looked up at him, asking, "Can you not answer this?"The person calling him was Clara Sullivan, Warren's old flame. She'd only returned to the country less than a month ago, but she'd threatened suicide many times ever since.Of course, Evelyn knew that Clara did this on purpose. Warren just never cared about her feelings.Warren pushed Evelyn aside as if they hadn't just had passionate sex just a few minutes ago and hurriedly answered the phone.Evelyn didn't know what the oth
Warren's face turned thunderously black after hearing that. His dark eyes bore into Evelyn as he said, "I told you that I would never get married. If you couldn't abide by my terms, then you shouldn't have agreed in the first place."Evelyn's eyes turned red out of anger. "It used to be just the two of us. But now, it's become three people.""You don't have to worry about her."Evelyn laughed bitterly at herself. "One call from her, and you abandon me without ever caring if I was dead or alive. Warren Larkin, tell me, how can I not worry about her?"Anger surfaced in Warren's eyes as he said, "Evelyn Jefferson! It was just period cramps! Why are you making such a huge fuss about it?""What if I told you I was pregnant?""Don't threaten me with a baby. I used protection every single time!"Warren's voice was icy and resolute. If the baby had survived, he would have made her get an abortion anyway.The tiny spark of hope in Evelyn died down almost immediately. She clenched her
Warren gripped his wineglass a little harder. He felt a prick in his heart just then.The day when Clara tried to end her life, it was true that Evelyn had called him many times because of her period cramps. At first, he picked up her call, but after that, he got mad at her and stopped picking up the rest.Surely that couldn't be why Evelyn wanted to break up with him now?Warren kept his eyes low and listened on as Chet and Ethan continued scolding that bastard of a husband and calling him all sorts of names. He didn't even realize it when the cigarette he was holding started burning his fingertips.He remained in a bad mood the whole night.In the past, if he returned this late at night, Evelyn would have already called him to check up on him.However, it was past 1:00 am now, and he didn't even receive a text message from her.He suddenly had a bad feeling about this.Hurriedly extinguishing his cigarette in the ashtray, Warren grabbed his phone and left the pub. Just as he
Warren's kisses were always dominant, oppressive, and unreasonable. He'd never give Evelyn a chance to free herself.Warren pushed Evelyn back against the desk and gripped her chin with one hand while the other held her down by her waist. Her soft body made his body tingle with excitement. He could hardly keep his dick in his pants as it was raring to go out.He'd been having constant sex with Evelyn while he was still with her. No matter how much he wanted from her, Evelyn would always give it to him. Even at times when he fucked her until she passed out, Evelyn still never complained.However, the Evelyn now kept struggling under him with her whole being. She was even crying, fat tears splashing down her face.Warren didn't continue any further.Instead, he reached up and wiped her tears away. He then said in a scratchy, unsatisfied voice, "Evelyn, this game is not over until I say it is. Understand?"Evelyn glared at him with tears in her eyes. She parted her bleeding lips and
Evelyn reacted swiftly. She hurriedly ducked aside to avoid the hot coffee. However, the scalding hot coffee still splashed onto her leg. It hurt her so much that she gasped loudly in pain.Just as she was about to demand answers from Clara, she looked up and saw the bitch throwing herself against the glass cabinet behind her.On instinct, Evelyn reached out and grabbed her, but Clara shook her off.Crash!Clara's elbow crashed into the glass front, shattering it to pieces. The broken glass cut into her skin, making her bleed onto the ground.Just then, Evelyn heard Warren's voice behind her. "Evelyn Jefferson! What the fuck are you doing?"Warren's towering figure appeared as he rushed over to Clara. His eyes were turning darker and darker. "Are you alright?"Clara's face was streaked with tears. She sobbed as she said, "Warren, it's all my fault. I accidentally spilled coffee on Ms. Jefferson, and she thought I did it on purpose, so she pushed me. But don't blame her for thi
Warren froze. Then, he threw a cold look in Evelyn's direction."If you want to die, then by all means, do it."A mocking look appeared on Evelyn's face. "Why do you think I haven't been through that? What if I told you I'd just lost 2000 ml of blood? Would you still force me to donate blood to her?""Evelyn, stop all this nonsense. The maximum blood loss during your period is typically around 60 ml. Next time, try thinking up a more plausible excuse."Evelyn smiled bitterly. She'd already made it so clear to him, yet he still didn't believe her.If he was concerned about her a bit more, he'd continue asking her about it. And if he understood her a little more, he would also know that she was never reluctant to help other people.But this was the reality that showed if he truly loved her or not.Clara's tiny scratch sent him into such a frenzy, and yet, she'd been through a dangerous miscarriage and even went under the knife for it, but he never realized.Their conversation lef
Evelyn opened her eyes and saw a familiar face. She clung to him like he was her last salvation.Her voice was weak as she said, "Seth, please, take me away."She didn't want Warren to see her in a mess like this. She didn't want to see the pity in his eyes. She didn't want anything but to leave this place as quickly as possible.Seth Yarrow, her senior, looked at her anxiously and asked, "How are you supposed to go home like this? I'm taking you to a doctor.""No! Please, Seth, I just donated blood to someone, so I feel lightheaded. Just send me home, please."Seth looked at her with concern and empathy in his eyes. He bent down and carried Evelyn in his arms, saying in a soothing voice, "Don't be afraid. I'm taking you away now."When Warren finally ran out after Evelyn, he happened to see Evelyn being carried into a car by an unknown man. The man was looking at Evelyn with deep concern. It made Warren so angry that he clenched his fists as he watched the car leave, his eyes tu
