Infidelity: His Regret, My Revenge – A Twisted Love Story You Can't Ignore

Chapter169.

"I will." Menu Mark lightly punched Evan's shoulder and left. There were two doors in the room; the woman Evan had asked him to find was inside. He didn't ask why; he only knew it involved the Crowe family.

Evan went inside.

An elderly woman with gray hair and a gaunt face sat inside. Seeing him, she stared blankly for a long tbefore saying, "My son is as handsas you." Evan responded with a warm and polite smile."Thank you for the compliment." On the terrace.

I weakly propped my head up, listening to my "legend" for over ten minutes. They recounted it vividly and tically. The most repeated point was that my "skills" were incredible. The most outrageous claim was that I possessed a lost ancient sex technique used to captivate men.

Gloria initially soothed me, but by the end... she seemed eager to join the gossip.

"Sweetheart, are you truly that good? Share it with me, you know," Gloria leaned softly on my shoulder, coquettish as a little green snake after drinking realgar wine. She was wearing a bright green dress that accentuated her skin tone.

11 11 I finished my drink. Standing up, I went downstairs, and with a serious expression, approached the group. Raising my hand, adorned with the eight trigrams bracelet, I pretended to divine their fortunes.

They were embarrassed at first, then looked at each other questioningly: What's she doing? After finishing my charade, I sighed deeply and said, "Within a week, you will all experience bloodshed." Then I left, leaving them speechless and dumbfounded, their expressions gradually turning fearful.

Gloria nearly choked on her champagne, shoulders quaking with suppressed hysteria. "Since when did you minor in divination?" I was serious. "As they said, I'm good at it." M Gloria was almost intimidated by my seriousness."... Really?" "Not at all.” "... You little rascal!" Gloria playfully shoved me.

Jokes aside, I was genuinely upset. I couldn't actually do anything in this situation; I was Evan's date, and if I started arguing and fighting, would that be appropriate? Looking around, I saw Mark cout, but not Evan. He must be meeting the person he truly wanted to see today. Smysterious bigwig.

"Gloria, do you know what mysterious figure Mr. Keller invited today?" "Your Mr. Jones, of course." " I didn't bother correcting her."Besides him?” 0 16:43 95.5% < Chapter169 "No one is more important than him, darling." "Okay, okay, I get it." "Oh my, you're shy." Мена I was actually freaking out! I sighed; even Gloria didn't know who it was. This guy must be powerful and private. But what kind of influential figure could Evan possibly need Mark to connect with, someone he couldn't access directly? There was nothing more to do at the reception; Evan wouldn't be coming out soon. I asked Gloria if she wanted to go to another floor in the hotel for a snack. She knew I couldn't handle the atmosphere and accompanied me. After all, she was tasked by Evan to take care of me: We went to a restaurant on the fifth floor and ordered sfood. I checked my messages; Sherry hadn't replied.

| called her.

She answered, her voice excitedly hushed, “Olivia, good news! I found the evidence to nail that bitch Rita! Nothing can save her! I have to hang up; I'll tell you later!" She hung up.

I held my phone, pondering for two seconds. Julian's threats from earlier exploded in my mind like a bomb. I called Sherry back. Her phone was off...

"Gloria, I have to go. I'll treat you next time." I hurried out while checking the location app. After the last incident, Sherry had installed a location tracker on our phones.

The address was a large building. While waiting for the elevator, I texted Evan, telling him that I needed Cody to driveto place. I wished Evan could with me, but... he in a businessting with a powerful, secretly invited guest; how could I ask him to leave that for me? Borrowing his driver briefly shouldn't be an issue-especially since Cody radiated the kind of brute-force aura that could intimidate a grizzly bear.

Gloria paid the bill and followedout, "What's wrong?" "Nothing..." "Don't lie to me; I heard 'Rita'." Gloria knew that I hated troubling others.

The elevator came. I chose to tell her the truth."My best friend, who's also my lawyer, is helpingfind evidence against Rita. She said she found it, and I want to go check it out.” "Really? I'll go with you." "...No, I can handle it." "What? She's your best friend, I'm not your friend?" Gloria pretended to be angry.

"...Fine, but stay in the car once we get there." "Okay, I will."

I bit my lip. I really didn't want her to go, but I knew how stubborn shen could be I wished everything would be fine.

As we reached the first floor, Evan called. I'd texted him because i didn't want to interrupt him, but he called him!back instead... my heart softened. I answered. Before I could speak, a serious, low, gentle voice came, "Wait in the car; I'll go with you." "...Okay." 95.5% < Chapter169.

I only replied with one word. He hung up.

My heart fluttered. I felt shy and awkward.

Gloria tsked. If it's not love, what else could it be? It's just a matter of tbefore they fall in love.

At the hotel entrance.

Cody had already brought the car around. Gloria and I got in the back. I couldn't care about seats at this point.

Evan cdown soon after. He went straight to the passenger seat and got in.

"Where is she?" he asked.

"Holden Building." I showed him the location on my phone.

Evan told Cody to drive there, and when he returned my phone, he said, "You can locate each other?" I nodded. "If we can't contact each other, we can find them through the location." He smiled. "Sounds like best friends." It felt like he wasn't really praising us.

"... Yes, we are."

I smiled and put away my phone.

Evan turned, his gaze assessing "You're worried about your friend disappearing, but not your boss?" "It seems I'm not important at all." I pursed my lips. "Do you needto locate you?"
