last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
There was no pretense at all, and she was straightforward because she knew that what Evelyn needed the most at the moment was money. Money could help Evelyn more than any other gifts at this time.

Evelyn accepted the envelope. True friends were like this. They did not need to work hard to please each other, but sometimes, the most direct form of love was the most precious.

She took the beer home, tidied up the house briefly, took a shower, and changed into a fresh set of home clothes. She did not wear a bra because she was ready for bed and would not be going out anymore.

She then sat on the sofa and started drinking. She had already had dinner, and she could not eat anymore, so she did not prepare any appetizers. She simply drank directly from the beer bottle. Besides, appetizers were only prepared for veteran drinkers; a novice such as herself would not think that the beer tasted good even if it was paired with sumptuous appetizers.

Evelyn drank gallantly, and she was basicall

    Evelyn struggled in confusion as she said, “I want to drink water.”All her protests were cut off by the intense kiss in the next second. Evelyn’s entire consciousness was filled with chaos, and her breath was filled with the cool breath that was unique to mature men. Even though she could barely open her eyes to see the person in front of her clearly, her consciousness was instantly submerged in his hot breath and lingering kiss.Before this, Evelyn had no experience in such intimacy aside from that night, so she was no match for him. Her whole body went limp when he kissed her. Evelyn had been drugged that night, so the extremely strong drug in her body had made her take the initiative to hug Rowan’s neck and kiss his lips, but she was passive and helpless now, and everything was under Rowan’s control.Rowan’s lips lingered on hers before he started kissing her neck. One of his hands was already under her shirt as he touched and enjoyed the woman’s body to the fullest. Rowan w

    How could he have helped her to relieve the effects of such a potent drug if his skills were not good?He asked her another question that had always been weighing on his mind. “Why didn’t you hand over the evidence that you have to clear your name?”“You don’t understand…” She did not seem to reject this question very much. She turned to face him again and even opened her eyes in a drunken state for a while, then she laughed as she looked at him and said, “We have to wait to take out the most important evidence at the most important occasion in order to deal a fatal blow to them.”Evelyn burped as she spoke of her plan intermittently. Rowan was a little surprised at first before he chuckled silently. He had been angry at her for not presenting the evidence in the first place, but he was satisfied with her explanation now. It was true. Her reputation had been completely ruined that night, so the evidence might not have any effect even if she had taken it out.However, if Evelyn

    He did not answer Evelyn’s question at all and simply used the harshness in his tone to force Evelyn to take a step back. She continued to question him. “W-What do you mean?”He looked at her meaningfully, then he turned around gracefully and picked up the two empty beer bottles from the side of the sofa. He placed them on the coffee table in front of her as he recounted her stupidity. “You got drunk at home in the middle of the night and casually opened the door for just anyone to enter. You were so drunk that you lost consciousness and had no sense of safety at all. I deliberately kept the evidence in case you would deny it.”His teasing words made Evelyn feel embarrassed. Did he have to do that? He even retained the evidence. She was not the kind of person who would refuse to admit her guilt.Evelyn’s eyes were fixed on the two bottles of beer. She suddenly remembered buying two bottles of beer from the supermarket at the entrance of the neighborhood last night. She could not c

    He glanced at her and replied, “There’s no rule that a birthday wish can’t be given later, right? Things that come later might still be the best.”He looked at her calmly as he said this sentence at the last moment. Evelyn was completely confused. She did not know what he meant by this.‘Things that come later might still be the best.’Even though she did not understand why he was suddenly saying these things, she still felt that his words were very warm, so she asked him blankly, “Why are you so nice to me? Why are you helping me like this again and again?”She asked him the question that she had always wanted to ask him, then she quietly waited for his answer. He frowned slightly and seemed to be amused as he asked, “When was I nice to you?”Evelyn was dumbfounded. Didn’t he help her again and again? Wasn’t this being nice to her?He said with great interest, “This is me being nice to you? Your standard is really too low, then.”He did not answer her question at all and prev

    He did not like the feeling of being addicted to something as it made him feel insecure.Evelyn turned to look at him as well. After meeting his gaze, she explained inexplicably, “It was my first time drinking last night.”He replied indifferently, “Just make it the last time, then. That way, it still has a commemorative significance.”Evelyn was dumbfounded. What was there to commemorate about being inebriated?Rowan drove away directly after he dropped Evelyn off at the hospital. Evelyn went to the cafeteria at the hospital to buy breakfast for Helena because Rowan had only prepared breakfast for the two of them this morning. Evelyn did not dare to tell Helena that she had gotten drunk and stayed in the same house as a man last night. Moreover, he had even prepared breakfast for her. Therefore, she told Helena that she felt like having toasted bread in the morning today, so she had it outside. Helena did not say anything and simply ate the breakfast that Evelyn had bought for

    Barry figured that they could decide on Natalie and Jeremy’s marriage directly with this dinner and choose an auspicious date for them to get married, lest something unfavorable happened if the situation dragged on. Natalie suddenly clenched her teeth and said, “It’s Evelyn! It’s all Evelyn’s fault! She’s the one who caused Jeremy to break off his engagement with me, and she’s the one who colluded with Rowan Pierce to force you to get divorced!”The more Natalie spoke, the more agitated she was. “No, I have to go and settle the score with her!” she yelled.She turned around and was about to rush out when Barry suddenly remembered Rowan’s warning that no one was allowed to cause trouble for Evelyn again, so he quickly stopped Natalie. “Stop right there!”Frustrated, Barry said, “I’m already feeling very troubled now, so please don’t cause more trouble for me by provoking her, okay? Rowan is the only person who can help us now. The Stewarts will be done for if you offend him!”Ba

Moreover, Nora felt that Rowan was at the age where he should be thinking about marriage. He was already 36 years old and would be turning 37 after the New Year. Julian did not tell Nora about Evelyn’s existence for the time being as he was confused about Rowan’s thoughts as well because of Rowan’s ambiguous attitude.

    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
