Chapter 150
As for Lucas‘ attitude, aside from the initial shock, Evelyn no longer felt much of anything
From the moment they decided on a hidden marriage, they had set ground rules. She had no reason to tear that veil off in public.
If she acted without caring and openly declared her identity as his wife in front of so many people just now, and Tiffany was accused of being a mistress, Lucas might not have spared her or the Reeds.
In the end, her rationality would always win out.
Since they were attending the same event tonight, she would still have a chance to speak with Lucas.
After sorting out her thoughts, Evelyn followed the crowd inside.
Once she arrived at the main hall of the launch event, Sebastian spotted her right away and waved her over.
When Evelyn walked up, he patted the seat beside him. “Sit here. Let’s see if Silux Materials has made any breakthroughs in material technology. It’s a good company to evaluate.”
Evelyn, with a head full of thoughts, nodded, “So, is Silux Mr. Connor’s company?
Brandon Connor was the only child in his family. Instead of going into politics, he entered business. With high–ranking relatives often appearing in national news offering guidance, he was indeed a person worth considering for a partnership.
Want to go say hello in a bir?” Sebastian recalled that the last time they visited the research institute district. Brandon seemed to have some i misunderstanding about Evelyn and mistakenly assumed she wasn’t very professional
munor
If they talked again this time, the misunderstanding would surely be cleared up, considering Evelyn’s insight into the industry and her professional analysis of Silux Materials.
Evelyn had no objections
She hadn’t taken Brandon’s previous “criticism” of her for touching the UNZ combat drone the wrong way. In fact, she agreed with where he was coming from That incident hadn’t been a big deal to her
While preparing to greet Brandon, Evelyn’s gaze wandered across the venue. She easily spotted Lucas and Tiffany surrounded by top executives, engaged in polite
conversation.
She began thinking about how to approach Lucas later to clearly discuss the matter of their divorce. As such, she looked in his direction a couple more times. When Brandon came down from the second floor, lie had a vantage point that offered a sweeping view of the venue. Given that Evelyn and Sebastian were seated in the front row, he immediately caught sight of her frequently peeking at Lucas.
A flicker of impatience and disbeliet passed through Brandon’s handsome features.
He had really underestimated her. Did she really grow bolder with each setback?
The executives walking beside Brandon noticed him stop. They followed his gaze and came to a realization.
“Mr. Connor, do you know Me Reed, too?
Brandon looked at them from the corner of his eye. “Do you guys low her?”
silus Technology had yet to begin any collaboration with Flying Seal Group. by right, Evelyn was just Sebastian’s assistant. How would she be acquainted with anyone in his company?
Sering Brandon’s confusion, Tristan immediately answered, “We just met. We bumped into her downstairs not long ago. Ma. Reed is actually kind of interesting. ” Brandonchoclded, intrigued by the comment. “How so?”
Tristan said, “We were down als welcoming Mr. Grant and Ms. Moore when we can into her. Ms. Reed walked right up and asked to speak with Mr. Grant in private. I’m not sure whether they know each other personally, but Ms. Moore actually agreed.
“However, Mr. Grant wasn’t willing to speak with her in private. He didn’t spare her pride and just walked off with Ms Moure. Ms. Reed probably feels pretty
awkward..
Brandon didn’t think of that. His brows slowly furrowed,
He looked at Evelyn again, who was sitting quietly. It turned out she wasn’t peeking at him. Instead, she openly coveted him.
She had actually gone and asked Lucas to talk privately in front of Tiffany, his legitimate girlhlend? That was outrageously bold. Lucas had done well to reject her A woman like that only new bolder. If one were to give her an inch, she would take a mile.
