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?”

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
