Didn't Want Me Before, Can't Have Me Now Chapter 95
"Warren, Chet is just spouting nonsense. Don't listen to him. We have plans for lunch. We won't be joining you," Clara hurriedly said as she and Chet quickly retreated from Warren's presence.Warren sensed something amiss. His suspicions grew as he watched them leave hastily. Warren wondered why Chet knew something he didn't. When had he and Evelyn become acquainted?He suddenly remembered the day Evelyn donated blood to Clara and pulled Chet aside for a private conversation.Warren felt frustrated recalling these events. He picked up a golf ball and threw it forcefully across the field.Just then, Charlie arrived to pick him up. Noticing Warren's gloomy expression, Charlie deduced that his talk with Evelyn had gone poorly again.Charlie immediately tried to comfort him. "Mr. Larkin, sometimes women need to be coaxed. A meaningful gift can sometimes work wonders. It's better than kneeling on spikes. The last time my girlfriend was mad, I bought her a necklace, and she forgave m

"It wasn't her. It was her mother, Xena. I heard she was desperate for cash, probably to pay off gambling debts. I think there's more to this story. Maybe Evelyn was coerced," Charlie reported.Warren's gaze turned gold upon hearing this. He suddenly remembered the anniversary celebration, where Evelyn had last worn that necklace. She despised Xena too much to give her such an expensive item willingly. It must have been under duress.With that thought, Warren stood up abruptly, "Check the hotel's surveillance."Half an hour later, Warren was in the hotel's surveillance room. He saw no sign of Xena after a long search. Just as he was about to give up, he spotted Evelyn rushing toward the staircase with the necklace clearly visible around her neck.When Evelyn appeared on the screen again, she was in Seth's arms, and the necklace was gone. Warren had a good guess of what had happened after comparing the scenes. He watched the footage with a grim expression and ordered coldly, "Find

Warren clenched his fist. His eyes burned with rage as he looked at Xena."Throw her in an asylum and ensure she's closely monitored." After saying this, he left without looking back.…In the morning, Evelyn received a call from Steven, who informed her that his grandson, William Bennett, had recently been discharged from the military and was currently idle at home. He suggested that William could come and serve as her bodyguard. With the recent unrest, Evelyn readily agreed.After breakfast, she drove to the airport to pick him up. However, as she stepped outside, she spotted a familiar figure. Clad in black, Warren stood like a phantom emerging from the dark. He fixed his gaze on her.Evelyn remembered Warren's words from yesterday."To let bygones be bygones and start anew."She barely smiled, grabbed her keys, and headed straight for the parking lot."Evelyn," Warren called from behind.She stopped and slowly turned to face the gloomy expression on Warren's face. Her voic

Evelyn stood in the airport hall and immediately spotted a tall man among the crowd. Despite the sunglasses, she recognized him as William Bennett, Steven's grandson. His choice of camouflage attire seemed oddly fashionable, reinforcing his moniker, "Heartthrob Trooper"."Hi, William! I'm Evelyn Jefferson. Your grandfather sent me to pick you up," she said.William quickly removed his sunglasses and gave Evelyn a once-over.The sight of her replaced his cold demeanor with a warm smile, dimples and all."Evelyn, you're even prettier than in the photos," he said. Evelyn might have mistaken him for someone else had he not called her by name. She wondered if this could really be the rebellious youth Steven had described. He seemed rather cute and quite polite.Evelyn attempted to help with his luggage, but William refused outright."Evelyn, a man like me shouldn't let a lady carry the luggage," he insisted.He then hoisted a large military backpack onto his shoulder and dragged

Evelyn was ready to leave after her brief words.Seth immediately stopped her. "Evelyn, they are our clients. My mother faces a plagiarism lawsuit. It's unsuitable for me to appear in court as her son, so I recommended you."Evelyn knew Seth's mother was a renowned designer for a top brand, and such plagiarism cases were common in the industry.She let her guard down. She approached Diana and said politely, "I appreciate your trust. I'll do my utmost in this case."Diana pulled her to sit and poured herself a cup of flower tea.She smiled. "I've heard about your exceptional skills from Seth since school days. I'm relieved you're handling this case.""You flatter me, Mrs. Yarrow. Given the opportunity, I will give it my all," Evelyn responded.Their conversation was harmonious, shifting from work to family topics.Diana was a talkative person. She discussed many societal issues faced by independent women with Evelyn.These were issues that once puzzled Evelyn, who listened inte

Warren raised his icy gaze. "What else do you expect?" he asked.Ethan kicked him. "You're useless. Fight for her. Are you going to wait for Evelyn to send you a wedding invitation before you regret it?"Warren felt a sharp sting at those words. The thought of Evelyn marrying another man caused him pain. It was as if several hounds were tearing at his heart. His eyes narrowed slightly as a glint of determination appeared on his face."Charlie, go to the wine cellar and get that bottle I've been saving," Warren commanded.Charlie responded immediately with a smile. "Right away, Mr. Larkin. I'll get it now."His speed was impressive. He was back in less than five minutes, cradling a bottle of long-cherished wine.Warren took the bottle and strode out of the private room, followed by the cheers of several men."Good luck. May your pursuit not end in a funeral pyre."Evelyn listened intently to Diana talk about industry oddities. Her face wore a gentle and pure smile. Just then,

Lucas immediately said, "Seth, help Mr. Larkin get the medicine from his car."As soon as Seth got up, Warren stopped him."There are several medicine bottles in the car. Even I don't know which is which. Ms. Jefferson used to manage them, so she should accompany me."Of course, Evelyn could see right through Warren's tricks.However, since Yarrows were here, she didn't want to expose him. She simply braced herself and said, "Mr. and Mrs. Yarrow, excuse me for a moment. I'll go help Mr. Larkin with the medicine.""Alright, go ahead."Just as she stood up, Warren wrapped his hand around her wrist.Nodding at the Yarrows as he got to his feet, he said, "I'm not feeling well, so I won't disturb your family meal. I'll excuse myself first."With one hand holding onto Evelyn and the other clutching his stomach, he walked out the door with a pained expression.Diana watched the door close, seemingly seeing through the whole ruse. She gave Seth a meaningful look."I'm not a conservat

Evelyn replied indifferently, "Mr. Larkin, there's nothing between us that requires forgiveness. You didn't do anything wrong. It was I who flattered myself, thinking that you truly loved me before."I only realized later that I was just a pet to you, just like your Samoyed."Mr. Larkin, so long as you're willing to spend some money, you can have whatever you want. I'm sure whatever you choose can make you happier than I can."After she finished speaking, she didn't even wait for him to respond. She simply said to Charlie, who was running over, "Mr. Larkin's stomach condition is acting up. You should take him to the hospital. I have some matters to attend to, so I'm leaving now."She walked into the elevator without sparing a single glance.Charlie watched the elevator doors slowly slide shut then turned to look at his boss' pitiful expression. He couldn't stop himself from letting out a sigh. Winding his arm around Warren to help him stand, he said, "Mr. Larkin, I'll take you 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,
