Chapter 124

Evangeline was aware that her notoriety had spiked after her split with Walter, thanks to Julia, the deceptive charmer. It was absurd, however, to think that a quick restroom break would turn her into the talk of the town.

Roslyn let out a sly chuckle. "Before we dive into that, Evie, let me introduce you to a friend."

Of course, she was not just doing this for Matthew's sake—she was really trying to stall for time.

With Evangeline looking on in surprise, Roslyn tugged Matthew to the front.

"Meet my friend Matthew Chale. He's got killer vocals and is a singer!" Roslyn beamed.

"Hi there, Ms. Evangeline," Matthew said, offering his hand confidently.

"Hello, Mr. Chale," Evangeline responded, shaking his hand with a polite nod before quickly letting go.

Evangeline was more preoccupied with the sudden change in the room's mood than with this Matthew who had popped up out of nowhere.

Unbeknownst to her, someone in the corner had snapped a perfect shot of her handshake with Matthew.
