Evander could not help but smile when he saw her concealing her emotions. Hence, he gracefully cut a piece of his steak and placed it in front of her. As if on purpose, he said, “Eat more and replenish your energy. We’ll continue tonight.”

Khaff! Khaff! Angeline choked on her food, and her face flushed red.

Evander was frightfully skilled at flirting. She would have turned weak at his words if she had not been good at keeping herself composed.

I’d better visit the Golding residence less in the future. Otherwise, I’d be taken advantage of without even realizing it.

After lunch, Evander had to return to the office for a meeting. Not wanting to stay at the Golding residence, Angeline went upstairs to get her bag so she could leave with his car.

Before leaving, she applied several layers of liquid foundation on her neck. Still, the hickey was still visible.

Seeing Evander waiting for her by the room door brought her anger to new heights.

“Look at what you’ve done. I’m going to make you pay next time.”

Angeline was stunned when she heard the words that slipped out of her mouth. She realized she was behaving bolder in front of him.

Just as she was thinking about that, a stern female voice rang out.

“I’d like to see what you’ll do to make my grandson pay.”

Angeline frowned as she realized the sudden change in atmosphere. Meanwhile, Francesca stood beside the couch downstairs, looking as if she was ready to confront a formidable enemy.

Without any hesitation, Angeline went downstairs with Evander.

Sitting on the living room couch was Valerie. Although all her hair had turned white, she still looked energetic, and her eyes were sharp as ever, as if they could see through a person’s heart.
