Chapter 133
Evelynadid not even have time to react. Her land clutched at her lower abdomen as she looked up in shock
Jason’s lare darkened, and blood could be seen on the comer of his mouth.
On the contrary, Blake strode forward with a liene expression on his face. Without giving him any unce to explain, he grabbed jason by the collar.
“What the hell were you doing? Don’t you know who she is? You had the nerve to put your hands on her?
Jason had never suffered this kind of humiliation before. He immediately returned the punch
“Please show some respect to both me and Ms. Heed!”
Make licked the comer of his mouth. He let out a cold laugh and hingeil forward again.
Respect? The scene just nove was it not too intimate? Even Jason’s ears were thishei red!.
Seeing that the two of them were about to get into a full–blown tight, Evelyn stepped between them.
“Blake Stop acting like a lunatic” she said, het face pale.
Blake stopped and turned to her. “sa, you consented to it?” he asked with a snee
He curled his lips and clicked his tongue. “Could’ve said so earlier. You really are something. Sleeping with your busband’s friend, huh? Aren’t you worried that the Two of them would discuss the respective experiences with you?”
Evelyn’s face went deathly pale, and her jaw clenched hard. She could not believe that Blake would say something like that about her.
Jason’s fist landed on Blake’s face with a loud thud, “Mr. Harrison, do not inmit her like that!”
Blake winced from the pain. Just as he was about to retaliate, the sounds of police sirens approached
At the police station, Evelyn had a splitting headache. Her face was colder to the touch than before
Blake’s personality was always difficult to handle. Maybe he’d misunderstood and lasted out on instinct, trying to protect her.
Thut what he said afterward was not protection. It was puce degradatio
It made her feel sullocated, nidiculed even.
They each needed someone to sign their ball after they gave their statements
Jessica rushed into Biale’s arms right after arriving. She gently caressed the boulse at the comer of his mouth. “What happened? How did you get into a fight?”
Blake wrapped his arm around her. “It’s nothing,” he said nonchalantly.
She was both anxious and angry. She looked around and spotted Jason and Evelyn sitting on a bench nearby, one injured and the other expressionless.
Jessica’s eyes went red as she questioned, “Evelyn, you’refiere too? Why didn’t you stop him? What exactly happened?“
She knew Jason well enough while they weren’t close, they would not possibly be throwing punches at each other like this.
Evelyn looked at her, emotionless. She did not have the mood to deal with Jessica right now.
She walked over to Jason, her lips pressed together. “Did you call someone over yet?
Seeing Ler so calm despite being upset, Jason gave a light coupli and replied, “I did, Magon will be here suon.”
Evelyn nodded. Alter a pause, she added, “Sorry.”
No matter what, the whole thing started because of her. Blako had lashed out because of her.
Even if their relationship was strained, some habits never changed. He saw that something was wrong and acted without thinking.
And now, everything tumed lido an awkward mess.
Jason stared at her, then shook his head. “It’s not your fault.”
As Evelyn’s brother, it was nominal for Blake to be a little sensitive.
Just tharn, Blalur, having calosed jessica down, walked over with a hand in his pocket. He looked quite apologetic atter he came back to his senses
“Mr. Holt, this was andsunderstanding. I hope it didn’t cause too much trouble. How about I treat you to a meal next time? Think of it as a proper apology “ Jason was

“As long as it’s all cleared up. You indeed misunderstood the situation, Ms. Heed and I ate just acquainted.”
He did not want to cause any more trouble for Evelyn
Blake cast a half–hearted smile toward Evelyn “That’s tour. Evelyn is so devoted to her husband that she’d probably help take care of his mistiria’s laby. I was just overthinking II.”
His words stung, of course I was an obvious jab at Evelyn’s lack of dignity when I came to be love life
Evelyn’s lipu went pale, but she no longer had the energy to argue
Jason frowned, wanting to say something but he could not come up with anything
Everyone had seen how far she went for Lucas during all those years.
Mason had openly called
desperate loser more than once.
a, who was chueless, asked, “What’s that supposed to mean? Her husband’s cheating on her?
Then, she turned to Evelyn with a look of sympathy and blurted, “He didn’t even bother hiding it from you? He does not treat you as his wife at all. It’s no wonder you never had any children. Was it because he didn’t want to?”
Evelyn Fiore, unsure how to respond.
The good thing was, she was now able to stay calm heating these words,
It was the truth, after all. Now that the marriage was over, what was there to care about?
Her hand fell to her lower abdomen,||
Everyone had questioned why she had no children after so many years of marriage
It was a constant reminder to her that one day, she would lose the ability to be a mother due to her illness.
Jessica turned back to Blake, pouting, “Blake, you’ll only love me, right? Even after we’re married, you’ll stay loyal. Promise me!”
hlake glanced sideways at Evelyn, who was still lost in thought, and chuckled. “Of course. You’re not like the others.”
Evelyn did not care about their sweet interactions. It was none of her business. All she wanted was to sort out today’s mess.
hst as she looked up to speak, the sound of a car engine was heard from outside.
This was followed by a voice calling out, “Mr. Grant, sorry for dragging you here. Things got out of hand.”
Evelyn turned in surprise.
Two figures stepped into view one tall, one short. They looked perfectly matched
Tulay browned slightly when she saw Evelyn.
Local eyes swept across the room, pausing ever so briefly on Evelyn
