“No.” Evelyn firmly held on
After finally persuading Reed, who wanted to cause mischief, Evelyn finally let go of her worries and prepared for the project.
The next day, at the usual time, I came to visit.
Just as I reached the door, I heard a woman’s choked voice coming from inside the room,
“Martin, why? Didn’t you say you were still willing to accept me?”
Evelyn suddenly felt that she had conie at the wrong time and was thinking about whether to leave when Martin’s voice drifted over.
“In my lifetime, I would only marry Evelyn.”
Evelyn’s forehead skipped a beat, and she couldn’t quite understand
ry her?
Did Martin say he would marry
What happened?
Deciding to spend the rest of our lives together after just meeting for the first time?
Evelyn felt a sudden and awkwardness.
Just as I was thinking, the door suddenly swung open and a women ran out, tears streaming down her face. She was unable to dodge in time and I was pushed back several steps by the force of her collision, nearly falling over
Isabel was already in a bad mood and was about to say something, but she swallowed it back
I looked up and saw a sophisticated urban lady with exquisite makeup, holding a gift box in her hand
Isabel was taken aback and her expression changed instantly when she thought of what Martin had just said, “Evelyn? Are you Evelyn?“!
Evelyn rubbed her sore shoulder, her face not looking very pleasant as she faced the hostility from the other person. “I came to see Mr. Wilson.” Upon hearing a familiar voice, Martin’s heart skipped a beat in the hospital room, and he instinctively called out, “Evelyn, is that you?” The voice softened a bit, contrasting with the previously heartless one
This made Evelyn feel a little embarrassed.
She somewhat believed Reed’s guess.
Evelyn walked in, frowning under Isabel’s gaze
Loolding up, Martin lay in bed, seeming to have not rested well, with a tired expression on his face.
And his gaze was scorching, like a dark abyss, firmly fixed on her.
Evelyn Felt uneasy arid walked over to place the glit box an Martin looked at her, countless memories, flooded his mind.
table. “Mr. Wilson, are you feeling better today?”
He couldn’t control his gaze, with fell directly on Evelyn
He wanted to ask her, where had she been all these years? How had she been doing?
Bit is also clear that they had only met for the second time, and these toples were beyond that.
Seeing her in a sult, with a hint of fatigue on her face, he suppressed the urge in his heart and softly asked, “Just finished work?”
Evelyn nodded and glanced outside. The woman should have left.

“How long have you been with the Peterson Group? Martin asked softly, probing the question he had been curious about since yesterday.
Evelyn briefly hummed and replied, “It has been two years, I was studying abroad before.”
Martin’s eyes flickered for a moment. She was very capable, but she had limited herself to the position of a secretary for too long.
With this in mind, the tone was somewhat low, “Not bad, promoted to manager in just
Sensing Martin’s tone, Evelyn cholod up, was this a compliment?
I had to gather information with a brave face and started inquiring, “Thank you for the compliment. I heard that Mr. Wilson has been in contact with the Easter Group recently? You haven’t fully recovered, so please don’t overexert yourself.”
Martin’s smile faded slightly, “Hmmm, I’m somewhat interested.”
“If Mr. Wilson was interested, why don’t we collaborate?” Evelyn said, and then she saw Martin raise his gaze, with emotions that he couldn’t
understand in his eyes.

Chapter 19
Just after saying it, Evelyn regretted it.
Martin’s emotions were genuine in his eyes, feeling as it his actions were a bit like a beauty trap.
She smiled and prepared to change the subject.
A “good” froze Evelyn’s smile on her face.
My mind “clenched” suddenly, it’s over, is this person for real?)
Seeing that things were not going well, Evelyn decided to retreat quicly.
“Mr. Wilson, let’s discuss it next time when you have free time. I won’t disturb your rest.” Leaving these words, I politely excit
Martin was left alone with a longing gaze he wanted to held on to
I hurriedly left the hospital.
Just arrived downstairs, I saw the familiar and hourious Rolls–Royce parked at the entrance.
Many people started “clicking” non–stop to take photos.
Evelyn pulled the corners of her mouth and pretended not to see as she walked around.
Rolls–Royce followed carelessly and slowly behind.
After a long while, unable to bear Reed’s thick–skinned behavior any longer, I coldly knocked on the car window,
“Evelyn, get in the car!” came the lazy, husky voice. The car window rolled down, revealing half–covered gold–rimmed glasses, exposing the slender and attractive eyebrows and eyes. Tilting her head back, she instantly revealed her fair neck, which looked quite tempting from this angle.
Damn this beauty –
This man was really good at using his appearance.
She took a deep breath, walked around to the other side, opened the car door, and moved inside.
“Mr. Peterson, really, you didn’t need to come pick me up.” Evelyn said, sitting down and giving Reed a disapproving look.
“But I wanted to pick you up,” Reed said, sounding a bir hurt, his voice slightly lowered with a hint of sweetness.
Evelyn covered her chest and closed her eyes, she could not be tempted, she could not be tempted…
Shrugging, she opened her eyes and said helplessly, “You know my family, if my mom sees this, who knows what kind of trouble she’ll cause.”
The seedlight was dim, and Reed had a serious expression on his face. His eyes were filled with deep affection as he said, “Evelyn, 1 could accept everything about you”
Evelyn’s heart skipped a beat, Reed’s reactions always caught her off guard. Sometimes, he would be so straightforward that it made her blush and her heart race, while other times he would be clingy and playful like a fox
She thought he would throw a tantrum as he used to in the past.
But I didn’t expect..
This sentence rolled through the heart, as if a feather gently brushed across the heart, giving a tingling sensation.
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.
Reed leaned in, a little too close, and Evelyn could almost feel his breath right next |
“Evelyn, perhaps you could try to believe me
Evelyn couldn’t resist and was about to give in, almost saying yes.
to her ear.
Reed cursed under his breath, giving a fierce gla
glare at the rearview mirror, and started driving away.
“beep” woke her up.
Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief and sincerely thanked the driver behind her.
After a while, I arrived home.
Chapter 19
The car stopped, and neither of them spoke
A faint fragrance walted over. It was Reed’s perfume.
The scene Just now reappeared, and Evelyn felt her face uncontrollably heating up.
She seemed like she should say something.
After a moinent,
Reed spoke, “Evelyn, can you give me a chance?”
Evelyn froze, unsure of how to react for a moment She tightened her grip on her bag and stared ahead without saying a word.
“It’s okay, I won’t push you, I can keep waiting.” his low voice came again.
Evelyn’s heart tightened, feeling a bit reluctant.
His words had barely faded when Evelyn mustered up her courage and, holding her breath, cautiously said, “Once this project is finished, I will tell you
the answer.”
Reed’s eyes lit up instantly, and he broke into a happy, silly smalle
Evelyn also laughed along
Fool-
Evelyn lay in bed, carefully reminiscing about the scene just now, and couldn’t help but spin around.
A message came through, shattering her good mood.
It is Evelyn’s mother’s Information.
“I have arranged a blind date for you with wealthy people. Tomorrow at twelve o’clock, at table number 15 in the King Restaurant, dress yourself up
nicely
