Didn't Want Me Before, Can't Have Me Now Chapter 85
Charlie couldn't stand Warren's peace. He decided to stir things up with a topic about Evelyn.He glanced at the rearview mirror and smiled, "Mr. Larkin, Ms. Jefferson seems to be job hunting. She's visited several companies. With her skills and beauty, if a rival company snags her up, it'd be quite a loss for us, wouldn't it?"Warren had been resting with his eyes half-closed. At Charlie's words, he slowly opened his eyes. A chill flickered through his dark pupils as he said, "Spread the word. They're welcome to sign her if they're not afraid of Larkin Corporation's retaliation."…On Friday evening, Warren went to Nexus Lounge for a business dinner. As he entered the parking lot, he spotted a familiar figure. His heart ached at the sight.Evelyn wore an avocado-green silk blouse with fashionable beige cropped pants. Her chestnut-colored curly hair fell naturally over her shoulders. She looked both professional and charming.Warren watched her intently. He wanted to find signs o

This was Evelyn's first formal encounter with Warren since their breakup. She had thought she would be calm, but seeing him reminded her of a lingering ache in her heart.Standing by her side, Tammy complained, "Yandel tricked me. He said Warren never attends these events, so I thought it would be safe to bring you here."Evelyn smiled lightly. "It's okay. We're all in Bramston City. It was bound to happen sooner or later.""Don't worry. I'll try to keep you from having to interact with him," Tammy assured.As they were about to leave, Warren's cold voice halted them. "Does Mrs. Hawkins plan to leave upon seeing me? Am I that unwelcome here? Is this how you treat your guest?"Tammy gritted her teeth. Turning around with a forced smile, she politely said, "Mr. Larkin, we're honored by your presence. Sorry for our impoliteness."Warren's gaze swept over Tammy and Evelyn. His eyes didn't reveal any emotions. "Since I wasn't properly welcomed, perhaps you should drink as penance."T

Evelyn immediately lowered her head and apologized. As she was about to turn away, that person grabbed her wrist. With a forceful pull, she found herself against a broad chest.A man's deep, husky voice came from above her. "You're willingly staying with him even after being coerced into drinking? How much do you like him?" Warren's arms held Evelyn tight against him. She couldn't move. His dark eyes burned with anger as he looked at her. He had never let her drink so much when they were together. Yet, just now, she had downed three drinks in a row to help Seth land a deal. He wondered how much she loved him to go to such lengths for him.Warren's intense gaze bore into Evelyn as though it could reduce her to ashes. Evelyn looked up at him, expressionless. "Didn't you say I can hold my liquor, Mr. Larkin? If I hadn't drunk, wouldn't it have been a slap to your face?"Evelyn's fair face was tinged with a faint blush, her eyes turning red from the alcohol. Her soft lips move

Warren didn't get angry from the bite. Instead, he seemed to savor the sensation while touching the wounded spot with a hint of indulgence. A mischievous smile played on his lips.Just then, a low chuckle reached his ears. Yandel approached from not too far off with an ambiguous smile. "If you're so reluctant to let her go, why did you let her leave? Didn't you know Seth has liked her for many years? Are you really okay with someone else taking away the little innocent pet you've raised?Warren pulled out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. The flickering light accentuated his sharp features. He took several deep drags as a faint smile formed on his lips. "Do you think people can just take away what belongs to me?"Yandel pointed at him and teased, "No wonder Ethan couldn't stand you. Where does your fucking confidence come from?After saying this, Yandel turned and walked away. Evelyn and Seth managed to sign two major contracts that night. They had also succeeded in secur

Seth stood behind Evelyn. Before she could speak, he grabbed her wrist and looked at Warren coldly. "Sorry, Mr. Larkin, we can't agree to this request. We'll have to decline it."Seth pulled Evelyn to his side. He protected her like a guardian angel. Warren felt a sting in his heart as the chill in his eyes deepened."Do you really think I came here today to talk business?" Warren asked as he slowly walked up to Evelyn. He leaned in and chuckled softly in her ear. "If you don't do as I say tonight, believe me, I'll destroy Seth's place!"Evelyn looked up and saw the raging fury in Warren's eyes. She knew he wouldn't let her off easily. She bit her lip. She fixed a cold gaze on Warren and said, "It would be my honor to dance with Mr. Larkin. I hope you keep your word."Seth immediately intervened, "Evelyn, he's doing this on purpose. You must not dance with him."Evelyn looked up at him. "Seth, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."Their conversation made Steven curious. He poi

Steven looked at him with a stern gaze. His voice was more serious than ever. "Did you know Evelyn before?"Warren laughed nonchalantly. "Didn't you see for yourself?""Evelyn used to work for you. She was your executive secretary, right?""Steven, I didn't want to hide it from you. Your good disciple didn't allow me to say it. Don't blame it on me."He pointed to the red wine on his face and chuckled lightly. "Look, this is her doing. You don't care at all."Usually gentle and smiling, Steven now trembled with both hands as he looked at Warren. There was unprecedented anger in his eyes."You deserved it! She gave up her opportunity to study abroad for you. She gave up the chance to become a legal elite. She was right to scold you. You're not only blind but deep down, you're clueless as well. Don't tell anyone we know each other in the future!"Steven trembled with anger. He had never thought the person who had constantly bullied Evelyn, driving her into a corner, was Warren.H

Evelyn's words were like a thorn, piercing deep into his chest. Warren didn't know why, but he'd always wanted to cling to Evelyn. He'd always wanted to hear her voice. Even if she scolded or hit him, it felt much better than not being able to see or touch her now.His eyes darkened slightly. His voice became a bit hoarser. "Evelyn, since you like to daydream so much, why don't you become a writer? I did this for Mr. Yarrow and his son's sake—to give them some business opportunities. It has nothing to do with you. "Besides, my grand-uncle has already mentioned this to my grandma. If I don't help out, do you think she would let me off? Don't make it seem like I'm cooperating with your firm just for you. You aren't that charming."Evelyn could hear the disdain in his tone. She knew Warren, who was always cold-blooded and ruthless, only listened to Bonnie.She immediately lowered her guard. "When are you available?""9:00 am, at the golf course I often go to. Don't be late."When

Hearing that voice, Clara shuddered all over. She immediately turned back to look at Warren. "Warren, Ms. Jefferson was drugged that night and ended up with Seth. It wasn't intentional. Please don't blame her."Acting as if nothing was wrong, Clara reached for a towel, intending to help Warren wipe his sweat. But he pushed her away.He fixed his icy gaze on Evelyn and demanded, "Tell me clearly what happened that night."He pulled Evelyn from the chair into his embrace. The sweat from his forehead dripped down his jawline onto Evelyn's face. Evelyn looked at him, unfazed. "Didn't you see and hear everything?""You were drugged, so you ended up with Seth, right?""Does it make a difference? In your eyes, I'm a dirty woman, aren't I?"The veins on Warren's forehead bulged. His deep-set eyes instantly turned red. He shielded Evelyn's head with his hand, which was burning with heat. His voice was low but filled with barely suppressed emotion as he said, "I will find out who did t

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,
