Angeline was snapped out of her train of thought when Evander returned from the stall with the roasted chestnuts in hand.

“Here you go,” he said in a somewhat annoyed tone.

I would never have queued up in such a noisy crowd if it weren’t for her!

A taxi happened to pull up beside them at the time.

Angeline flagged that taxi down and said with an apologetic look on her face, “Sorry, but I have something urgent to take care of. You two can go on home without me.”

She then turned around, hopped into the taxi, and sped off before Evander could even respond.

The look in Evander’s eyes grew cold as he watched the taxi disappear from sight.

Floretta tugged on his arm and said worriedly, “Daddy, Angel left because she got a call from a guy. She might be in danger. We should go after her!”

Evander frowned slightly upon hearing that.

His tone sounded a little impatient as he said, “There’s no need for that. She has to take responsibility for her own actions. Come on, let’s go home.”

Although Angeline didn’t say where she was going, Evander could tell from her panicked expression that it had something to do with Hanson.

So, she’s going to meet Hanson, huh? Why would she be in such a hurry to meet him this late at night? No, this won’t do. I can’t just sit around and do nothing while the two of them get together!

Noticing the worried look in Floretta’s eyes, Evander held her hand and headed toward the underground parking lot.

Meanwhile, Angeline had just gotten out of the taxi in front of Charming Temptation.

There were rows upon rows of fancy cars parked nearby, and she could hear the deafeningly loud music from outside the entrance.
