Chapter 202

“This ain’t no nightmare, it’s more like a midnight fright.” Cassius joked, taking a sip of his red wine.

After all, he and Arnold were spending the evening with their sister. Even Unfaithful Thaddeus wouldn’t dare to mess around.

Otherwise, the dagger hidden in his cross necklace wasn’t just for show, not even Jesus could save him then.

Unfaithful Thaddeus really has the guts to come here? Quick, prepare for battle!” Arnold cursed, eyes glued to the screen, fingers flying over the keyboard.

“Prepare for battle? What kind of battle, a keyboard duel?”

Evadne shook her head, looking agitated. Tm the one who summoned this demon, It’s only right that I send it away Let me go check”

She approached the entrance alone and switched on the video call.

The screen lit up, revealing Thaddeus handsome face with a hint of coldness.

“What are you here for?”

Evadne asked, her expression calm as if she didn’t know him, “No other places to go in Elmsworth? You just have to loiter around my house?”

“Evadne, come out. Let’s talk” Thaddeus ignored her sarcasm, his voice deep.

“So we can’t talk like this? Is it that you think I can’t see your face, or I can’t hear your voice?”

The man swallowed hard, letting out a sigh.

She really was as cold as ice.

“Evadne, stop fooling around. Come out, I have something to tell you.”

“Fooling around? Which eye of yours saw me fooling around with you? I’m clearly trying to drive you away. Can’t you see that?” Evadne couldn’t help but

sneer.

“I want to see you.”

Thaddeus’ eyes glittered in the dim light, his voice hoarse as if he was suppressing a lot of complex emotions, barely managing to voice out his desires, as if he had left all his pride and dignity behind.

“I want to see you”

Evadne’s heart clenched. She stepped back slightly

After a moment, she took a deep breath and laughed lightly.

If it was in the past, she would have cried tears of joy hearing Thaddeus say these words, she would do anything to hear him say this.

But now, his desire came too late. Their relationship had changed. If she continued to cling on, she would only demean herself.
