Chapter 165

Evadne tilted her pretty chin ever so slightly, locking her eyes on Thaddeus as she walked towards him.

In an instant, the guy felt as if all his blood was rushing to his heart, his throat tightening, the muscles under his suit becoming tenser. It was as if every nerve in his body was being pulled by Evadne, longing to be closer to her

Edith frowned slightly, clinging tightly to Thaddeus. A strong sense of possessiveness and anxiety made her grip even tighter.

She could intuitively feel that Thaddeus not only knew this beautiful woman, but also cared deeply about her.

But just when Thadders was full of anticipation, thinking that Evadne was coming towards him, she slipped past him like a gentle breeze.

“Chritian!” Leaving the stunned Thaddeus behind, Evadne curled her bright eyes into a smile, calling out softly.

“Oh! My sweetheart!”

Chritian, coming from the other end of the corridor, greeted Evadne as if she was a long–lost friend. She waved at her excitedly and even used a term of endearment, which showed they were close.

Everyone present was dumbfounded, including Edith.

Chntian was known for being aloof and arrogant. During the three years Edith studied with her, Chritian rarely praised her and was always indifferent.

What was it about this woman that could easily win over the rare smile of her mentor?

“Darling, I didn’t expect to see you in Elmsworth! I had known, I would have made time to have dinner with you!” Chritian happily embraced Evadne.

“I didn’t want to disturb you. You have rehearsals and preparations,” she replied.

Evadne knew Chritian under the name of Haron, as Chritian had ordered more than one dress from her, and they had a good private relationship.

It could be said that Evadne had such charm. Anyone who had worked with her eventually became her friend.

Thaddeus watched Evadne chatting happily with the world–cla** pianist, and memories flooded his mind.

His broad shoulders trembled slightly, and his gaze almost lost focus.

He remembered that when Evadne first married him, her bright and clear eyes would also smile at him like Edith, and she would excitedly talk non–stop about interesting things like other young girls.

But he always ignored her, he was too stingy to give a look that belonged to her.

Gradually, Evadne became silent, playing a role that no one paid any attention to in Windermere Estate, quietly staying by his side.
