Chapter 225

Guests were pouring into another hall preparing for the upcoming auction.

Evadne slipped away from the media, seeking refuge in the corridor

“Miss Evadne Jason rushed to her side, his face etched with worry. Are you alright?”

Just a few persistent journalists. What’s the worst they could do? Cause a little ripple?”

Evadne’s eyes were calm, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. “You shouldn’t be here with me. You should be in the hall managing the event

Jason’s voice was almost hoarse with anxiety. “Those journalists were clearly prepared. They were sent by someone to deliberately make things difficult for you! They keep bringing up our past mistakes, just to embarrass you!”

“This is normal, isn’t it? When you organize a charity event, do you expect the journalists to only sing your praises?”

Watching Evadne’s increasingly dark look in her eyes, Jason couldn’t help but shiver. She was indeed as ruthless as President Ashbourne. This rose, as beautiful as it was, came with thorns and poison.

The event required Jason’s attention as the managing secretary, so he hurried back to the hall
