That was countless women’s dream.

“Bravo, Evander!” Roger clapped his hands, cheered, and whistled before joking, “I have a request. Can we kick this shrew out?”

“You can leave if you want,” responded Evander coldly with a deadpan expression.

When Nancy heard Evander, she broke into a grin so wide that her eyes could barely stay open.

“Don’t let the door hit you on your way out, Mr. Jantz,” ridiculed Nancy while waving her hand.

Upset by his friend’s response, Roger hardened his face as he started shoving a small piece of lamb into his mouth. I used to be the one who valued women more than my friends. I never expected Evander to be so protective of his future wife. The man is practically a different person! I have to eat more to fill the void in my heart.

Angeline froze like a statue after listening to Evander because she felt somewhat awkward. I don’t understand. Why is Evander acting as though I never turned him down in Hallsbay? He seems completely unfazed by what happened there.

When everyone was about to sit down, Angeline quickly made up an excuse to sit farther away from Evander by saying that she needed to feed Floretta.

However, she had no way of knowing if the man had figured out her intention since he was enjoying his dinner as if nothing had happened.

After dinner, Nancy and Roger bade their farewells and left the Golding residence.

Angeline, too, was ready to go after playing with Floretta for a while, but the girl held on tightly to her leg and gazed at her with a pair of puppy-dog eyes.

“Tomorrow is the weekend, Angel. Why don’t you stay for the night?” pleaded Floretta.

Angeline was heartbroken when she saw how pitiful Floretta was, so she patted the girl on the head and apologized, “I’m sorry, Floretta, but I have something important to do tomorrow. I’ll see you another day.”
