Nora took the initiative to talk to Evelyn and asked her, “Evelyn, is this for my brother?”After thinking about it, Nora decided to call Evelyn by name. Although she wanted to call Evelyn her sister-in-law, based on the current situation, it was clear what her brother felt for Evelyn, but it seemed that Evelyn had no such thoughts at all.Nora was afraid that she would scare Evelyn away if she suddenly addressed her as her sister-in-law.Evelyn smiled at Nora, then explained, “Well, I soiled his clothes before this, so I have to compensate him.”Nora was surprised. “Compensate him? Is he that shameless that he asked you to compensate him? He is really too stingy! He has plenty of clothes to wear. He seriously has no compassion at all!”Nora criticized her brother. She then took the bag, opened it, and looked at it. She frowned as soon as she saw the price tag.“Oh, this suit is really expensive.”She did not have an arrogant or condescending attitude at all and even felt that c
He felt the urge to kiss her and even felt the urge to ravage her lips and kiss her passionately. He even forgot that there was a steak cooking in the pan.“Rowan—” Nora suddenly came in and interrupted this enchanting moment. After Evelyn returned to her senses, she no longer cared about the cup in Rowan’s hand. She smiled awkwardly at Nora and rushed out.Nora walked over apologetically, glanced at Rowan, who remained calm, and said with a smile, “Rowan, did I interrupt something?”The scene just now when the two of them were standing face to face seemed really beautiful to Nora. Evelyn was looking down shyly. Although Rowan had no expression on his face, his eyes were filled with tenderness. Nora felt that her brother might really kiss Evelyn in the next second if she had not come in.There were countless times when Nora had imagined what it would be like if Rowan fell in love one day, and she had even tried to imagine what kind of girl could win Rowan’s affection, but she had a
However, Julian suddenly leaned over and kissed Nora on the lips, successfully interrupting her before she could finish her sentence. Nora was embarrassed, but Evelyn was even more embarrassed as she quickly pretended to look away.Evelyn had heard Selena talk about the couple’s grand wedding, so she knew that they had a good relationship, but she did not expect that they would be so intimate in front of outsiders. “Honey, I really missed you because I hadn't seen you in a while. Let’s go out and chat.”Julian quickly eased the situation when he realized that he had accidentally revealed that he knew who Evelyn was. He hugged Nora and entered the study room next to them with her. Julian was afraid that Nora would misunderstand him. After all, Evelyn was a girl that he knew out of nowhere, so he was afraid that Nora would suspect that he was having an affair with another woman. He lowered his voice immediately and explained things to Nora in a low voice. He told Nora about the n
Nora tried to think of the right phrase to describe her first impression of Evelyn, but she could not find any. After hearing her answer, Rowan could not help but reply to her quietly, “You’re truly my sister.”Rowan felt the same way Nora did. He could not put a finger on what he liked about Evelyn, but he just liked her. Nora laughed and said, “You don’t need a reason to like someone.”She then leaned over and asked, “The clothing designs that I saw in your living room when I came here just now are for her, right?”After Rowan brought Nora into the house, Nora saw many design sketches scattered on the table in the living room. Nora thought that Rowan had come up with those designs for her at first, but she frowned after she picked up the sketches and looked at them.“Rowan, you know I can’t wear these clothes that you designed, right?”Not to mention that it looked very professional, the most important thing was that she was pregnant now, and her belly was already showing. She
In her opinion, he was a man who loved his sister, valued kinship, and was a considerate gentleman. Although he would criticize her when he spoke to her sometimes, it seemed that it was all for her own good. After all, Evelyn had seen how he scolded Natalie, Barry, and the others, so she felt that the words he said to her were not harsh at all.Rowan’s apartment was very large, and his study room was located in another location, so they had to walk some distance along the corridor. Rowan’s tall and broad figure was in front of her, and his steps were calm and steady.Evelyn felt embarrassed to keep staring at his back, so she had to lower her eyes as she thought of these things. She did not notice that the man in front of her had already stopped in his tracks when he arrived at the door of the study room, so she slammed into the man’s hard and muscular chest because she was distracted. He instinctively raised his hands to hug her waist because she had run into his arms like this.
Nora initially planned to changed the topic just now. Unexpectedly, she succeeded in changing the topic yet somehow managed to drag Julian into the conversation again. Rowan’s words really hit Julian’s sore point.Julian did not want to be reminded of his bastard behavior back then. Unexpectedly, Nora’s words made Rowan bring up his past again. Therefore, Julian decided to simply eat in silence. Nora knew that she said something that she should not have said as well, so she stuck out her tongue and lowered her head to eat.Evelyn was very focused on reading in the study room. The study room had a very good environment. There was a whole wall with a tall bookcase, neatly packed with all kinds of books. In addition to publications on design, there were books on literature, geography, history, art, and music. There were all kinds of books, so it could be seen that the books that he read were all very comprehensive and encyclopedic. There was a thick white carpet in front of the book
Barry hurriedly explained, “That’s not… I really want to get divorced. Hello? Hello?”Rowan hung up the phone unceremoniously. Barry was anxious and scared. He did not know what Rowan’s attitude was and whether he would ignore him completely out of anger. However, there was really nothing he could do. After getting up in the morning, he went to look for Melanie immediately so that they could go and get divorced. Melanie probably did not expect that he would still propose a divorce so ruthlessly after she had served him so well the night before. She started crying out of anger. After she had calmed down, she told him that she still needed to wash up and put on makeup. Barry answered a call and went out to run an errand. When he came back, Melanie could not be found.Natalie had no idea about Melanie’s whereabouts either. Their son was in boarding school, so he knew nothing about Melanie’s whereabouts. Barry was furious. Natalie had another quarrel with Barry because he insisted
When Nora called Rowan to ask for his opinion, Rowan said that he should be able to get it done in time. As for the design of the ring, Nora specifically asked for Evelyn to design the ring. Nora felt that she was really an amazing sister who did not miss out on any chance to create opportunities for Rowan to spend more time with Evelyn. Since the gown and ring would have to match, the two of them would definitely have to spend more time together. Although Nora had never seen any of Evelyn’s designs before, she felt that the things designed by such a beautiful and gentle girl must be beautiful. Nora felt that Evelyn certainly had a talent and ability that Rowan admired since she could be employed in Rowan’s design company.Otherwise, with Rowan’s temperament, even if he liked her, he would not allow Evelyn to join his company if she did not have any ability or potential in designing. Jason was extremely happy with Nora’s answer. “Thank you so much. I’ll treat you to dinner when
