NovelGoldChapter 155 Mason was the first to notice Evelyn. He raised a brow but still greeted her. "What a coincidence." Evelyn gave him only a faint glance before pulling Justine away in another direction.
She clearly had no intention of acknowledging him.
He had always looked down on her. In the past, his attitude had been full of contempt. She had tolerated it for Lucas' sake. But now, she had no reason to show him any courtesy.
Justine had even less interest in acknowledging Flynn and completely ignored the two of them.
Mason was rather surprised, but he wasn't angry.
Lately, Evelyn had grown a temper. Had she really changed her approach to pursuing Lucas? On the eve of Easter, she genuinely didn't bring them soup in the end, which proved that Lucas was right.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Don't you think Evelyn is kind of arrogant?" Flynn asked with knitted brows, a little baffled. "Why do I get the feeling she doesn't care about us at all?" Mason couldn't wrap his head around it. Was she trying a new way to announce her existence, or was it something else? Lately, she really hadn't treated them like she used to.
"No way," denied Mason as he shook his head.
If Evelyn were still wholeheartedly devoted to Lucas, she wouldn't be stupid enough to antagonize them. She was probably trying to cup with snew tactic to get attention.
Mason shrugged, brushing it off.
Evelyn wasn't feeling well. It was probably because of the radiotherapy that morning. It didn't take long for her to feel tired standing in heels.
Justine noticed Evelyn seemed unwell and had her sit in the lounge area. "Take a break. I'll look for Fergus for you." Evelyn agreed. Her body really couldn't take much more.
Justine went off to socialize on her own.
Evelyn counted the tfor her medication and decided to take a pill. She had just opened her bag when someone stood in front of her.
"What are you doing here?" Blake frowned at her, clearly displeased.
Evelyn paused. She closed her bag, met his gaze, and answered calmly, "I don't think I need your permission to do what I please." Gritting his teeth, Blake chuckled. "Well done, Evie, you know how to retort now." Evelyn looked away, not planning to explain anything.
However, he had already bent down and grabbed her wrist. "Cwith me! I'l have someone send you home." His grip hurt her wrist, and her expression shifted slightly. She struggled instinctively. "I can't leave. You have no right to interfere!" She couldn't understand why Blake had reacted so strongly to her being here.
It was just a charity gala. What was the big deal? "Evelyn, don't make a scene with me." Blake's eyes darkened, and his tone was dangerous, which was his usual way of warning people.
Evelyn suddenly stopped struggling. She looked at him, reminding him, "Blake, I'm no longer that little gift whom youneeded to protect and control. I don't need your concern or restrictions. I hope you understand that reality."

She was nothing more than a girl acting out.
He had found another woman. It was normal if she was upset about it. However, he wasn't going to break up with Jessica.
Evelyn didn't care what Blake thought and tried to pry his hand off.
There was a sudden commotion nearby, and she instinctively looked up. Coincidentally, she met Lucas' indifferent gaze from across the room.
Tiffany stood poised by Lucas' side.
He had seen the struggle between ΟΠΙ Evelyn and Blake from the beginning. However, he merely paused for a moment before casually shifting his gaze away. He had no intention of probing further into whatever was going on between Evelyn and Blake.
