Chapter 339

Thud!

Dolores stumbled, her arms flailing wildly, her designer handbag sent flying. With a look of comic dismay, she fell flat on her back!

“Ouch! That hurts!”

She sat there on the ground, tears welling up in her eyes from the pain, her lips trembling.

Any regular guy would have helped a beauty like her when they saw her fall, especially if they were the cause of it.

But Thaddeus just ignored her as if nothing happened, and with a swift stride, quickly disappeared from her sight.

At this moment, Gordon also ran over.

He glanced at Dolores, who was in a pitiful state, and then followed Thaddeus,

In just a few seconds, Dolores began to question her usually high self–confidence in her appearance!

“Dolores? What are you doing sitting on the ground? You look ridiculous!”

Bevis had just come out for a smoke and frowned when he saw his daughter’s predicament.

“Dad! You see your own daughter fall and you don’t even help, but instead make snide comments!”

Dolores, using the coffee table for support, shakily stood up. Her ankle was swollen and her Chanel high heels were broken. She kicked the broken shoe away in anger!

“I bumped into Mr. Thaddeus. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be in this embarrassing situation. But I don’t know why he was in such a rush.” Dolores sat on the sofa, gasping due to the pain.

She had hoped that tonight she could make a memorable impression on Thaddeus, but instead, it turned out to be a disaster. She was so frustrated that she was on the verge of tears!

Bevis noticed the urgency in Thaddeus‘ departure and his expression turned grim.

In the underground parking lot.

“Mr. Thaddeus! Where are you going? What’s going on?”

Gordon, sweating profusely, followed Thaddeus, his voice trembling with anxiety.

“Evadne is in trouble. I need to find her immediately!” Thaddeus‘ expression was icy, his jawline sharp and handsome.

The veins on the back of his hand, which was pulling open the door of his sports car, were prominent. His dark, stormy eyes revealed his intense

emotions.

“I’ll come with you! It’s better to have backup!”

“No need, you drive too slow! And you can stay behind to handle any aftermath!”

With those words, the engine of the sports car roared to life. Like a released arrow, the car shot out of the parking lot.

Gordon watched as the car sped away, leaving a cloud of dust. He sighed, his heart heavy with worry.

“Mrs. Abernathy must be okay. Mr. Thaddeus, you must bring Mrs. Abernathy back safely!”

The black Lamborghini sped like lightning down Elmsworth Street.

“Evadne, I’m coming. You must be okay. You must be okay!”
