Chapter 77
Caleb led them towards the bedroom when he just happened to bear Jasmine’s voice coming from inside.
“Evelyn, I am sorry for what you’ve been through recently. Alas Since there’s no chance with Caleb anymore, why not consider me as your godmother? From now on, I will help you find a better man. By the way, what about that neighbor you mentioned last time! If you think he’s good, when can you bring him over? Fll take a look.” Jasmine sat on the chair by the bed, gently holding Evelyn’s hand. She showed endless sympathy
Upon hearing this, Evelyn was extremely embarrassed and shook her head to deny it. He thought, ‘Are you kidding me? If we can’t be in-laws, we will become mother and daughter instead? And in the future, I will act as siblings with my ex- husband? It’s so embarrassing!”
“Mom! What are you talking about? That’s nonsense.” As soon as Caleb entered the room, he heard this conversation. He felt so jealous.
“I think it’s okay. After all, if you don’t want Evelyn, someone else will want her. If you two can’t be a couple, can’t I be Evelyn’s godmother?” she asked.
Jasmine naturally knew that her idea was not very practical, but she still turned around to give her unworthy son a disdainful look. Only then did she notice a girl behind Caleb.
“And this is…”
“Hello, Mrs. Mercer! I’m Evelyn’s friend! I was with Evelyn last night!” Zoey finally got someone’s attention and immediately broke free from Felix’s restraint excitedly, running to Evelyn’s bedside. There was a worried expression on her face.
“Evelyn, are you feeling better now? Does your hand still hurt? Zoey carefully stuck close to Evelyn’s arm. Seeing that the bandage on the arm was intact, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and chattered non-stop. “Evelyn, have you seen it? Ava is trending on social media, and people are badmouthing her. I just found out that she actually stole your man. This is an outrage! But then the trending topic was quickly removed. I don’t know who was foolish enough to spend money to remové it. Alas. That detestable woman got off easy
Caleb, who was foolish enough to spend money to remove the trending topic, was rendered speechless.
With a smiling face, Jasmine thought, “Although she was probably scolding my son, I still felt she was right about that’
“Zoey.” Felix cleared his throat lightly with an expressionless face
Zoey stuck out her tongue and made a face at Felix. Seeing that Felix’s hanging hand moved, she immediately shifted the topic in panic. “Evelyn, when will your injury get better? If I had known, I wouldn’t have asked you to accompany me to the premiere last night. Alas, we ended up missing the premiere and you got hurt because of it. Can I stay her with you?”
“No!” Caleb and Felix spoke in unison.
Evelyn originally wanted to refuse, but she bit the words back. She looked up at Caleb, who had a nervous expression on his face. For some reason, she suddenly felt like laughing. Why did she suddenly find Caleb somewhat flustered?
“Zoey, it was not your fault. It was just an unpredictable accident in the first place,” Evelyn smiled reassuringly at Zocy, and from the corner of her eye, she noticed that Jasmine seemed a bit stiff. Puzzled, she looked over and saw Jasmine looking at Felix in surprise.
Evelyn blinked and also turned to look at Felix. There was nothing special. What was Jasmine looking at? However, if Evelyn must point out something special, it would be quite shocking the Felix, being such a restrained and indifferent person, would actually accompany Zoey to visit her.
