My Stubborn Heart-Stealing Ex Chapter 781
"You're right. She's young and needs proper training."Evelyn stood in the bathroom for a while, staring at herself in the mirror. As she continued to look, tears slid down her face. This was her father. Her mother was about to undergo a dangerous surgery tomorrow, and they didn’t even know if she would make it through. Yet, here he was, still desperately trying to push Evelyn into the arms of an old, shrewd man!To say that it didn't hurt would be a lie. Evelyn didn't know what she had done wrong in her past life to deserve a father like this in her present life.Other girls' fathers treated their daughters like they were their past lovers, pampering them and protecting them from any harm. But her father...Had he always been like this? Had he always been a scoundrel without any compassion? Or did he change completely under the brainwashing of Natalie and Melanie? But none of it mattered anymore. What mattered was that she would pretend she didn't have such a father from

After hearing Barry's words, the man responded with a disdainful and cold chuckle. Then, he pointed his cigarette at the restroom sign on the nearby wall and said to Barry with a smile, "Mr. Stewart, what do you think I'm doing in a place like this? Did you think I was here to watch you slap your daughter?"This remark left Barry's face in an embarrassing shade of pale. He felt deeply humiliated.It was evident from the man's comment that he had overheard the entire conversation between Barry and Evelyn moments ago. Barry felt ashamed to have his instructions to his daughter to marry George exposed. He couldn't respond to the man before him and could only manage an awkward smile.The man paid no more attention to Barry. His gaze briefly swept over the girl who was covering her face and intentionally not looking in his direction.Then, he walked away.As he passed by Barry, he paused briefly. Barry quickly forced a smile, and the man's deep, pleasant voice filled the air. "But th

Evelyn's thoughts briefly wandered, and then she returned her attention to the road ahead."Could you drop me off at the bus stop ahead? I'll make my own way back from there," Evelyn requested. She didn't want to inconvenience anyone, especially a man she still considered a stranger.The man chuckled lightly and said casually, "Since I've already gone out of the way to help you, I might as well see it to the end. I'll make sure to deliver you to your destination safely."Evelyn bit her lip but eventually said, "I'm going to Central Hospital."Before this, the man had been keeping his gaze fixed on the road ahead. But after she had mentioned her destination, he glanced at her, a trace of amusement in his eyes.Evelyn met his gaze, and it immediately reminded her of the sarcastic comments he had made about her at the hospital.To be honest, Evelyn couldn't quite determine whether this man was a friend or a foe.He had mocked her at the hospital for her seemingly addictive habit

And here they were now.Rowan wasn't sure why he had decided to drive her home. He figured it was because he couldn't stand the thought of her being dragged back to be delivered to some old man by Barry.For the rest of the journey, neither of them spoke.Evelyn leaned wearily against the car seat, staring blankly out the window at the passing night scenery. The pain on her face and the wounds in her heart made her feel utterly dejected.When the car stopped in front of Evelyn's apartment building, she unbuckled her seatbelt and politely thanked him. "Thank you for tonight."The man turned to look at her, his gaze pausing on her swollen cheeks. Then, he met her eyes.His deep eyes seemed to see right through her as he said calmly, "Go back and ice it. It’ll heal faster."He was referring to her swollen face."Thank you."Evelyn awkwardly turned her face away. "I'll get going then—""You live in a place like this?"The man's words interrupted Evelyn's attempt to leave, and he

But ultimately, Rowan was the man who had helped her. He felt the need to do something for her, not because of any romantic feelings, but purely out of guilt.Back when the incident happened, he had gathered evidence to prove Natalie's involvement in setting Evelyn up, wanting to make amends. Evelyn hadn't used that evidence, so helping her this time was his way of compensating for it.After helping her this time, Rowan felt like he could finally live with his conscience. He didn't understand why a ruthless person like himself would feel guilty after sleeping with a woman. Perhaps it was because that night had directly led to her tarnished reputation. If it had just been a one-night stand, he wouldn't have had these emotions.Now that he had helped her, he considered it a clean slate between them. Even if he saw her being mistreated in the future, he wouldn't intervene.He had no other thoughts about Evelyn. It would be more accurate to say that he had no thoughts about love an

"May I use the restroom?"Evelyn hesitated for a moment but quickly understood his intention. She stepped aside to make way for him and said, "Of course."Rowan stepped into the room, and Evelyn pointed in the direction of the bathroom. "The bathroom is over there."Because he had helped her earlier, it was only fair to let him use the restroom now. However, she seemed to have forgotten that they had just come from a restaurant where he had used the restroom.It was only when she saw him that Evelyn remembered his suggestion as she was getting out of the car to apply an ice pack to her swollen face. She turned and walked to the refrigerator, retrieved an ice pack, and gently applied it to her cheek. The cooling sensation soothed the burning and stinging sensation on her face.But just as she had started icing her face, she heard the bathroom door open, and the man walked out. Apparently, his restroom visit had indeed been brief.Seeing him emerge, Evelyn halted her actions. She

Rowan had taken a close look at her half-swollen face, and he couldn't deny that Barry had indeed been quite brutal.His slightly stern expression was genuinely intimidating. Under his severe gaze, Evelyn chose to compromise. She reached out for the ice pack he had left, placed it on her face, and then lowered her head as she walked out of the kitchen. Because of the cramped space in the kitchen, his tall frame blocked half of the hallway, so she had to turn her body slightly to get past him, even brushing against his chest as she did so.His refreshing scent wafted into her nose, causing her to inexplicably blush. She hurriedly walked out with a red face.Once outside the kitchen, Evelyn felt her face getting even hotter. She couldn't help but press the ice pack onto her face again, attempting to cool herself down.The sound of chopping vegetables echoed from the kitchen, giving the impression that he was skilled in the culinary arts. Evelyn wasn't sure how to feel about it.It

Evelyn's face turned red again.She wasn't entirely inexperienced when it came to spending time alone with men. Back then, she and Jeremy used to…The moment the name Jeremy crossed her mind, her heart ached, and she froze momentarily.It was Jeremy's furious expression that emerged in her thoughts. Anger had driven him to lose his composure, turning him into a hysterical version of himself. It was him, red-eyed and bellowing, "Evelyn, I never thought you were such a shameless woman!"Tell me! How many men have you slept with?"After that, he drew close. He tore apart her flimsy attire roughly as he screamed, "You've slept with so many men! Why didn't you let me touch you?"It was he who had covered her with lips angrily and bit down on her collarbone and shoulders almost frantically.And it was he who, in disdain, pushed her away once more.Yes, he considered her tainted after a video of her going to a hotel with another man went public.Evelyn had nothing to explain.

Evelyn was worried about this, but Rowan did not take it seriously as he said, “This small amount of snow is nothing.”Evelyn was extremely worried. The temperature was so low now, so the road must be icy. The snow was too heavy and would block his sight. Evelyn did not want him to be in any danger, so she suggested in a low voice, “It’s better if you don’t go back.”Rowan looked at her in surprise and smiled as he asked, “Where will I stay if I don’t go back? Do you want me to stay in the car all night?”Evelyn shook her head and said, “Y-You can go home with me.”She had just taken the initiative to invite a man to spend the night at her home. It was truly embarrassing for a shy girl like Evelyn to say these words, but she was willing to do so for his safety.“My mother should be asleep now, and she wakes up later in the morning. We can just leave before she wakes up in the morning.”She explained with a red face, “Don’t misunderstand me. I just don’t want you to be in danger o
My Stubborn Heart-Stealing Ex Chapter 928 How Are You Going Back?
She held her cell phone and said hurriedly, “I’ll go down right now.”She ended the call and hurriedly put on her down jacket. She was wearing warm and soft polar fleece home clothes. She did not have time to change, so she simply put on a down jacket and went out. She opened the door and walked out stealthily, out of fear that she would wake Helena up, and Helena would find out that she was going down to meet Rowan in the middle of the night. Helena would surely think that this kind of behavior was inappropriate. When passing by the living room, Evelyn glanced in the direction of Helena’s bedroom. The lights had been turned off, so she was probably asleep. Helena’s physical condition was not as good as it was before the surgery. After all, she was getting older and had undergone craniotomy, which was a major surgery, so she could not keep up mentally and physically. She would go to bed very early at night and wake up late in the morning.After Evelyn left the house quietly, sh

Cassie’s expression turned ugly when she heard Helena’s words. She was shocked and humiliated as she asked in disbelief, “Is it Rowan Pierce?”Cassie knew that it was the Pierces and Matons who were maliciously targeting the Sullivans. Julian and Nora had just gotten married, and it was said that Julian loved Nora very much, so it could not be Julian.As the person in charge of the Pierces, Ryan was a married man as well, and the couple usually kept a low profile and rarely displayed their affection. However, Cassie heard that Ryan’s wife had just given birth to a son, and it was widely known that Ryan was a family man now.Rowan was the only single man, so could it be Rowan?Cassie recalled the scene when she saw Rowan shopping with them in the mall that day. At the time, she wondered why Rowan would be willing to go shopping with them, but now, it seemed that he was there for Evelyn’s sake. Cassie was so stunned when she thought of this that she felt like she would choke on a m

In the end, Natalie was pushed to a dead end and had no choice but to hold a press conference in a hurry. During the press conference, she cried and apologized for the plagiarism and the fact that she had looked for someone to draw a design for her, and announced that she would be quitting the design world.However, few people accepted her apology or showed sympathy for her even though she apologized and admitted her mistakes. The general public opinion was still scolding her in various ways, so Barry simply drove Natalie home and asked her to stay at home to avoid the limelight. One night after Natalie’s incident, Evelyn was accompanying Helena on a stroll in the neighborhood when they ran into Cassie.Natalie’s life had been completely gloomy and dark in the past few days, but Evelyn’s life was stable and practical.Rowan insisted on picked her up from work every morning. If Rowan was at the company at noon, the two would have lunch together. Considering that Helena would be at
My Stubborn Heart-Stealing Ex Chapter 925 You Can Never Turn Your Life Around
Natalie never expected that Rowan would play these dirty tricks behind her back. She did not know that Rowan was best at these tricks. She had cried and begged Barry to plead for mercy on her behalf, but when Barry came back, he told her that there was no room for redemption. She was desperate and was filled with hatred and resentment. Over the years, she had tried every means possible to trample all over Evelyn, but in the end, she was the one who suffered the most and could not turn her life around. Natalie clenched her teeth angrily in hatred as she dug her nails into her palms and tried to calm her emotions. So what if her career in design was ruined? She never truly liked this industry anyway. She had only learned it at the beginning in order to crush Evelyn. She could still do other things even if she did not do design, right? There were so many different industries in this world, so she did not have to make a living in jewelry design. Besides, she was a Stewart, so s

She laughed loudly when she was happy, shed tears when she was sad, never hid her true self, and was a frank and sincere person. Why wouldn’t men like such a girl?Rowan laughed. He did not mean to slander Selena; he was simply analyzing Selena’s current situation from his perspective as a man. Selena might indeed be a good girl in Evelyn’s eyes. After all, Evelyn was a woman who only cared about Selena’s personality, but men paid more attention to a woman’s temperament and charm sometimes. Everyone naturally had their own preferences. For example, Rowan preferred someone simple like Evelyn, whereas some men might prefer someone with a stronger personality like Selena. Evelyn had to call Charles after she could not reach Selena. “Charles, is Selena home? I can’t seem to reach her on her cell phone.”Charles frowned when he heard Evelyn’s words. “She’s not back yet. You can’t reach her on her cell phone?”“I can’t. I tried calling her several times, but her cell phone is switch
My Stubborn Heart-Stealing Ex Chapter 923 Plenty Of Men Who Covet Her
He was wrong. He was really wrong. He treated the person he wanted to protect so coldly and harshly. It seemed that he had not been in a relationship for too long that he had forgotten how to love. Fortunately, it only took him this once to understand the crux of his problem. Therefore, he stroked her cheek gently and reassured her in a deep voice, “It won’t happen again.”Evelyn chose to smile slightly in relief in response to his apology and assurance.When two people are together, they need to understand and accommodate each other in terms of personality, temperament, and living habits. Since they had only officially been together for a day, this was even more essential for them. As he said, he was an ordinary man, and she was an ordinary woman. Their relationship was that of an ordinary couple, so it was normal for them to quarrel, have disagreements, and lose their temper. Evelyn felt that there was nothing that could not be solved as long as it did not involve principles
My Stubborn Heart-Stealing Ex Chapter 922 I Was Wrong
“Getting dinner!” Rowan announced angrily, then he placed her in the passenger seat, got into the car, and drove away. Evelyn had no other objections since they were going to eat. Anyway, she had already called Helena earlier to tell her that she would not be going back for dinner tonight as she would be having dinner with Selena. Not long after the two had gotten into the car and driven out, Selena called and asked Evelyn worriedly, “Evelyn, how did it go? Did you manage to coax him yet?”As Rowan was sitting next to her, Evelyn could not answer whether she had managed to coax him. Therefore, she hesitated without saying anything.When Selena heard this, she knew that they must not have reconciled yet, so she gave her advice on the other end of the line. “It’s fine. There’s no man that can’t be coaxed. Just one kiss will do. If he still can’t be coaxed, give him two kisses. If that doesn’t work, just kiss him all over until he’s no longer angry!”Selena’s voice was loud enough,
My Stubborn Heart-Stealing Ex Chapter 921 What Do You Want?
Selena’s tone was full of annoyance as she said, “I initially thought of giving Evelyn a surprise, but it turned out to be a shock!”Selena had good intentions as well; she just wanted to introduce the most handsome, stylish, and reliable man that she knew to Evelyn, but it turned out to be self-defeating. As for Shane, who was to be introduced to Evelyn, he simply stood there leisurely the whole time, looking at the three of them as if he was watching a good show. He watched as they got jealous, explained themselves, and felt depressed. Even though both Evelyn and Selena had explained the whole story entirely, Rowan still felt angry and annoyed.After glaring angrily at Evelyn, he simply turned around and walked away.Evelyn and Selena could only exchange glances as they were at a loss for what to do.In the end, Evelyn said to Selena helplessly, “I’ll go and see how he’s doing. You two can enjoy dinner together. I’m sorry.”Evelyn chose to pay attention to Rowan this time an
