“I don’t need your permission to leave.”

Evander, who was already irritated enough, shot Jacob a cold glare as his tone reeked with harshness. “For your information, Angeline is my woman!”

Following his words, Jacob froze in place. He then looked at Angeline in disbelief and asked in a daze, “Angie, is what he said true?”

Her expression changed when she heard his question, and a trace of guilt appeared in her eyes.

“Jacob, thank you for looking after me today. I’m very grateful for your help, but I only see you as a friend and a younger brother.”

Her tone was particularly solemn, making her stance clear.

Before this, she didn’t spell things out clearly because she assumed that Jacob’s infatuation for her was only temporary and that the young man only thought of her as a breath of fresh air. However, at present, she realized that she had underestimated the feelings Jacob had for her.

Furthermore, she was able to comprehend Evander’s feelings for her following the current incident. He didn’t only think of her as a mere pastime. Instead, he genuinely cared for her.

When his tender, soothing voice comforted her, her heart opened up to him, and she gradually accepted him.

Evander would be her one and only choice if she were to ever get married one day.

The man’s lips curved to form a faint smile when he heard Angeline’s response. She didn’t deny our relationship like she usually would, and that’s a big step. All the troubles I’ve gone through are worth it.

Subsequently, he carried Angeline out of the hospital and brought her to his car before giving Roger a call.

A confused expression descended on Angeline’s face as she sat in the passenger seat. I’m not close to Roger, so why would Evander tell him about the allergy?

As though he had noticed the puzzlement on her face, Evander reached out to envelope Angeline’s cold hand in his palm as he drove out of the parking lot. With a tone more gentle than ever, he said, “Don’t worry. You’ll find out when we get there.”

Hearing his words of assurance, Angeline tactfully kept silent instead of asking any more questions.

Evander adjusted the air conditioner in the car to a suitable temperature and helped her recline her seat so she could rest comfortably, but still, her thoughts were a tangled mess.
