Echoes Of a Forsaken Heart

Chapter 147

Chapter 146

Mason quirked an eyebrow in slight curiosity.

Since Hamilton brought it up, it wouldn't be polite for him to refuse outright. "Sure, why not?"

In just a few exchanges, the dinner was set.

The people around them, however, had a mix of reactions.

Natalia's eyelids twitched a few times.

She couldn't fathom what Hamilton was up to.

It felt like he was up to no good, perhaps even scheming to sabotage her job.

As for Eveleen, her face was a portrait of displeasure.

Hamilton was supposed to be here for her consultation with the plastic surgeon, and now he was going to dine with Natalia.

"Hamilton, we've got other plans, remember?"

Hamilton glanced over his shoulder at Alden and said,

"You take her to the doctor."

Alden nodded in agreement and said to Eveleen, "Ms. Schafer, let's go."

Eveleen was fuming. "I won't go. Hamilton, I want you with me."

Ronin couldn't help but chuckle.

"Mr. Fowler, seems like the lady is vexed. Perhaps you should accompany Ms. Schafer first."

Hamilton looked at Eveleen and said, "Eveleen, have you forgotten what I told you before?"

Of course, Eveleen hadn't forgotten.

Since that phone call, Hamilton had indeed started to distance himself from her.

He was never particularly close before, occasionally showing up when she needed him, but rarely initiating contact otherwise. After that call, his demeanor became even colder.

He would still help her, appearing whenever she needed him, but his attitude was unmistakably chillier.

Eveleen felt utterly wronged, b

Swallowing her hurt, she pleaded, "Could you at least take me home later?"
