Perhaps it was because there was such an equally outstanding man with her tonight that it made her constantly think of another man who had once been very important in her life.

Dinner was quickly consumed. After Evelyn cleaned up the dishes and put away the utensils, she saw that he was already getting up from the sofa with his car keys and phone.

He appeared to be ready to leave.

Evelyn stood there without moving or saying anything. She didn't know what to say. She certainly couldn't tell him to leave.

He didn't say much either. He simply took his belongings and walked straight to the door.

Out of politeness, Evelyn walked over to see him off.

After he put on his shoes and stepped out of the door, she awkwardly said, "Goodbye."

He looked at her, his gaze pausing on her face for a moment. In the end, he didn't say anything and turned to close the door as he left calmly.

Evelyn leaned against the door and let out a long sigh.

What a chaotic night it had been.

Just as she wa

    "You’re truly my best friend," Evelyn joked with Selena, then smiled wryly."With my reputation, which man would dare to have me? Not to mention love at first sight."That incident from two years ago had already tarnished her reputation in Detroit, making her wonder if any man would want her.Selena wasn't bothered by it. "Maybe he doesn't know about your past.""There are no secrets in this world. Even if he doesn't know now, he'll find out sooner or later."Evelyn didn't finish her thought. In reality, she wanted to say that once he knew about her past, he would probably abandon her. It was a common male instinct, and Evelyn understood that.So, she had no great expectations for men or love. She even resisted the idea somewhat because once she got involved with a man, it would inevitably lead to the events of two years ago, which she didn't want to remember or discuss.Therefore, it was better to have neither—no love, no man. Then, she wouldn't have to revisit those painful

    She thought of the scene where she and Helena have been dependent on each other for so many years after the divorce. Someone once said that the most touching word in the world was ‘mother’. Evelyn felt the complete warmth of this word from Helena. Evelyn felt really desperate now that Helena’s life and death was uncertain in the operating room.She was heartbroken as she sat there, and her sleeves were soon wet with tears. It was very quiet outside the operating room, and no one came. She hugged herself as she sat in the corner. She did not know how long had passed when there was suddenly the sound of footsteps coming from the silent corridor in front of the operating room.Every step sounded calm, powerful, and steady. When she heard the footsteps, she could instantly tell that these were the footsteps of a mature and steady man. Evelyn did not look up. If anyone was coming, it would only be Selena. It was impossible for any man to come here, so this man might have come to t

    Natalie had told Jeremy that Evelyn was good at pretending to be innocent in front of him, and that she was deliberately playing with his feelings because he loved her, but she was in fact very casual with other men behind his back. Jeremy did not want to believe that Evelyn was such a person, but the truth was cruel. Evelyn was impatiently grabbing the man’s neck and kissing him in the video.Evelyn had a calm expression when faced with Jeremy’s concern as she said, “This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you, does it?”These words pushed back Jeremy’s concern mercilessly. Jeremy was suddenly a little embarrassed, especially when she was saying these words to her in front of an unidentified man. Jeremy was instantly put on the spot. Before he could react, Natalie walked out of the corridor around the corner. She stood next to Jeremy with a mocking smile as she said, “Jeremy, why would Evelyn care for your concern? It’s more than enough for her to have the concern of the gre

    In order to get Jeremy back then, she had kicked Evelyn away by ruining her reputation, then she found a way to sleep with Jeremy before forcing him to take responsibility toward her. Jeremy had always rejected Natalie before that, but he stopped rejecting her again after sleeping with her once.Natalie knew that her methods were despicable, but it was because she fancied Jeremy. She knew that the reason Jeremy had stayed with her was probably because he longed for her body, and because her parents were pressuring him. However, his heart still belonged to Evelyn, even though Evelyn’s reputation had been tarnished. Jeremy might have fallen for her scheme in the past, but he was extremely upset at the moment, so he simply pushed her away with a cold expression and said, “I’m exhausted since I just came back from a business trip, so I won’t be going over tonight.”He then walked toward his car.“Jeremy!” Natalie stomped her feet and shouted at him, “I know what you’re thinking ab

    Jeremy did not expect that the two women would get into a fight in the blink of an eye, and he quickly stepped forward to pull them apart. Selena saw the perfect opportunity and tried to slap Jeremy. She was enraged and figured she would deal with the scumbag as well. However, Jeremy instinctively tilted his head, causing Selena to miss him. However, Jeremy still felt a burning sensation on his face as there was a bloody mark on his face left by the tip of Selena’s fingernail. Jeremy raised his hand and wiped his face. There was blood oozing out. He yelled at Selena angrily, “Selena, have you lost your mind?”Selena ignored Jeremy and continued fighting with Natalie. Natalie was usually dressed in a ladylike manner, with high heels and a dress, so she had to be careful even when walking, but Selena was different. She was wearing jeans and boots, so she was very comfortable in her outfit. Moreover, Selena had a wild temperament, so Natalie was naturally no match for her. As Selena

    His brows furrowed slightly, and there seemed to be a hint of displeasure in his expression. Rowan’s displeasure came from the fact that this woman really did not seem to remember him.The feeling of being forgotten did not feel very good. Rowan had initially thought of telling Evelyn his identity after Helena’s surgery was completed successfully today. He would then tell her that he was compensating her in this manner to make up for that night, and that they should stop interacting with each other from now on. Otherwise, he would not have come here today.However, he had suddenly lost the interest to tell her the truth now. He did not know how she would react after she found out. She might even get angry and hit him.Evelyn became even more puzzled as she asked, “Do we know each other?”Rowan did not want to continue talking to her anymore. He snorted bitterly and said, “If you say you don’t know me, then I’ll take it as you don’t.”Evelyn was dumbfounded. Based on what he said

    However, she did not want to trouble him too much. After all, he had helped her to arrange the surgeon for her mother, and she was already going to owe him another favor before she could even thank him.Upon second thought, Evelyn felt that since she already owed him a favor because of her mother, she could just owe him another favor. She could thank him when Helena’s condition got better later. Therefore, she gladly accepted his help. “I’ll have to trouble you, then.”Rowan raised his brows slightly when he heard her words. A faint smile flashed across his face, then he turned and left without saying anything else.In fact, Rowan thought that if Evelyn refused when he offered to help her, he would certainly be annoyed and even feel disgusted with her. If she refused to accept his help because she wanted to maintain her so-called restrain as a woman, he would think that she was too stupid and ignorant. It was better if she was smarter, even if there was a reason behind it. S

    The police officer, who was aside, was dumbfounded. This young girl already had a perfunctory attitude, so he thought that her family member would help to calm things down. Unexpectedly, when her brother arrived, he felt that she was not ruthless enough when dealing with the other party.He stood up and yelled loudly, “Young man, are you here to solve the problem? This is a police station—not the streets! Resolve the matter quickly and give me a clear answer as to whether you want to settle the matter or be sued!”The police officer slammed his hands loudly on the table.Charles ignored him and glared coldly at Natalie, who was standing aside. “Are you the one who pushed my sister?” he asked.Natalie was so frightened by his ferocious voice that she almost burst into tears. She kept hiding behind Barry. Charles’ expression made it seem as if he could throw her out if she dared to admit to her actions.Barry was a man, and he was Natalie’s father, so he could only confront Charles

    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

    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

    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

    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

    “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,

    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
