Angeline was already frustrated from spending so much time on the water pipe, so Evander’s nagging made her more upset.

In a fit of anger, Angeline stood up and waved the wrench in her hand at Evander. “Well, all that talk isn’t going to fix the problem. Why don’t you try your hand at it? But I guess a rich and pampered person like you wouldn’t know how to repair it, right?”

Angeline let loose her frustrations and taunted Evander.

All she wanted was to embarrass him for a bit, but little did she expect what he was going to do.

At that moment, Evander took off his suit jacket and placed it on a chair nearby. He strode toward Angeline and took the wrench from her hand. “Step aside.” He gestured to Angeline.

Seeing Evander squatting in front of the water tank, Angeline was shocked. “Are you sure about this? Why don’t I call a plumber? I’m sure they’ll be here quickly, and it won’t affect dinner…”

“Have you ever met a female artiste as long-winded as you? Just watch me,” Evander replied in a disdainful tone. While his slender fingers were deftly working on the pipe, he instructed in a deep voice, “Pass me the pliers.”

From the looks of it, it seemed like Evander knew a thing or two about repairing a leaking pipe.

Angeline did not dare to say anything more. She hurriedly took the pliers from the toolbox and handed them over to Evander.

Evander’s hands seemed to work like magic; soon, the pipe stopped leaking.

“Whoa, it stopped leaking. Mr. Golding, you’re amazing,” Angeline complimented with a huge smile. She hoped he would forget about her tactlessness earlier.

Evander was secretly pleased to hear her compliment. He did not say anything more and turned on the tap to test the water flow.

As Evander watched the water flow smoothly from the tap, a sudden thought crossed his mind. He asked Angeline coldly, “You have a boyfriend?”

“Huh?” Angeline was caught by surprise by his question. “Mr. Golding, why are you suddenly asking me this?”
