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
He had recruited those outstanding designers because he was impressed by their talents. At the same time, he believed in their abilities, because if he believed in them, it would be an affirmation of his own judgements. …Evelyn spent the next few days taking care of Helena in the hospital. She had already moved everything into the newly rented apartment and tidied it up. All that was left was for her to take good care of Helena. The doctor said that the date for Helena to be discharged would be determined based on her recovery, but it would take at least half a month. The first three days after the surgery was the most difficult for Evelyn to take care of Helena. Helena’s speech function had not fully recovered due to the surgery, and she could not move much, so Evelyn needed to help to turn Helena’s body over frequently and massage Helena’s body and limbs to prevent muscle stiffness and to ensure smooth blood circulation. Evelyn did not even dare to sleep at night because Hele
Evelyn’s attitude remained indifferent as she spat, “Just get straight to the point. I’m very busy.”Barry could only say, “You should know from the last time that my company has encountered some difficulties. Can you ask your boyfriend, Rowan Pierce, to inject some capital into my company to help me tide through this difficulty?”“Boyfriend? Rowan Pierce?” Evelyn had no idea what Barry was talking about. She did not know anything about what had happened at the police station that day. Selena did not tell her that she had told them that Rowan was her boyfriend. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m afraid I can’t help you because I don’t have a boyfriend.”Evelyn was about to leave after saying this, but Barry stopped her. “Evelyn, I know that you’re still mad at me, but you have to help me this time. Selena said that Rowan Pierce is your boyfriend at the police station that day!”Evelyn paused in her tracks and frowned slightly. Barry had mentioned the name Rowan Pierce
“Rowan, how has your relationship with Evelyn been lately?”Barry made his opening statement with the belief that Rowan and Evelyn were a couple, so he felt that he did not need to be as respectful to Rowan as he had been before because he was Rowan’s elder. Therefore, he called Rowan by name very familiarly and even mentioned Evelyn on purpose to show his identity as Rowan’s future father-in-law. When Rowan heard Barry’s words, he raised his brows slightly. He could immediately guess why Barry was acting this way. It seemed that Barry had taken Selena’s words at the police station that day seriously, so Barry was using his identity as Evelyn’s father to get closer to him. Rowan could already guess Barry’s intention in doing so.Barry’s company had recently encountered some trouble. Rowan had overheard Barry mentioning this matter to Evelyn personally when they were in the restaurant that day. Rowan did not only despise Barry’s purposeful approach, he was also disgusted because
