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
Rowan stopped in front of his black car and turned to look at her. The man had a deep but calm look in his eyes. His slightly open shirt collar made him look relaxed but elegant at the same time. Selena really wanted to scream because he was really handsome.However, the man’s gaze was too sharp. He simply looked at her indifferently without saying anything. Selena could feel the sense of oppression, so she quickly apologized in a low voice. “I’m sorry. I was too impulsive when I said that you were Evelyn’s boyfriend just now. Please forgive me if this causes any inconvenience for you.”Rowan did not know whether to be angry or amused as he looked at the girl in front of him. She was impulsive and reckless; she had a completely different personality from Evelyn, who had a gentle, calm, and even cautious character. He really did not know how the two of them could become good friends. Was this what they called opposites attract?Rowan had heard clearly when Selena said that he was Eve
Selena was frustrated and defeated when she saw that Rowan had a lukewarm expression. She did not say anything else and simply snorted coldly as she turned to look out the window. This man was too cautious, and he seemed to have deep thoughts. She could not even get a single comment or explanation from him about his relationship with Evelyn after trying for such a long time, so she felt discouraged. He was obviously doing very ambiguous things for Evelyn, and he had helped her again and again. He was acting so ambiguously, yet he seemingly did not show the slightest hint of ambiguity.Selena, who had always been smart, could not figure out what he was up to.The three of them rushed to the hospital. Helena’s surgery was not over yet, and Evelyn was still waiting anxiously. Her anxiety was not only because Helena was still in the operating room, but because Selena was in the police station as well.Just when she was feeling anxious, she heard footsteps coming from the other end o
Barry’s only thought was that if Rowan was Evelyn’s boyfriend, he wanted to ask Evelyn to speak to Rowan to get him to inject capital into his company to help him tide over the difficult times. She could even get Rowan to speak to Ryan about letting Pierce Group invest in his company. Anyway, it did not matter who it was, as long as they could provide him with money to save his company. After Jeremy came in, Melanie said with some dissatisfaction, “Jeremy, where did you go just now? Don’t you care at all that your girlfriend was beaten up? Shouldn’t you be helping Natalie to deal with that woman?”Melanie’s words were so selfish that even the police officer who was in charge of the incident frowned. After all, a person’s upbringing was very important. Natalie might be dressed in exquisite and expensive clothes, and her mother was also gorgeous and ravishing, but they had extremely hideous personalities. What did her mother mean when she said that Jeremy should be helping Natalie t
It might be because they were noble and virtuous, and were not as miserable as Melanie had imagined. The more they appeared to be noble and virtuous, and the better they lived, the more vulgar and despicable Melanie would seem. Therefore, Melanie hated them.Helena and Evelyn lived a comfortable life all these years even without Barry to support them. Although they were poorer, they seemed to be very happy. Evelyn even became more and more outstanding. Melanie was even more dissatisfied when Evelyn had an outstanding young man like Jeremy as her boyfriend. She initially thought that Helena and Evelyn would fall into a miserable situation after Evelyn became infamous and lost her boyfriend to Natalie. In fact, they were indeed in a miserable situation as Helena had fallen seriously ill and needed surgery. Melanie was initially waiting for the mother and daughter duo to embarrass themselves. Unexpectedly, a man like Rowan suddenly appeared midway, and he was even Evelyn’s boyfriend.
Rowan took a sip of water and replied, “Very successful.”He was unwilling to say even one more word, so Julian did not know how to broach the subject when he wanted to talk more about him and Evelyn. However, he still wanted to matchmake them, so he smiled and said to Rowan, “I investigated Evelyn before, and she is actually a rather outstanding girl, both in terms of her character and in other aspects—” Rowan glanced at him faintly and asked, “How do you think Nora will react if she knew you are secretly investigating other girls?”Julian fell silent for a moment, then he glared at Rowan angrily after a while and said, “I’m doing this because of you, okay?”Julian was extremely depressed. He had only asked someone to investigate Evelyn thoroughly for Rowan’s sake, but Rowan was so heartless that he wanted to tell Nora about this to deliberately make him suffer. Why would he investigate a random woman if it wasn’t for Rowan?He did not even have enough time to dote on his wife
