Chapter 640

Evadne’s hand paused mid–air, her lovely eyes narrowing slightly.

Confronting Warner’s mockery, she was indeed a bit miffed, but perhaps it was the stabilizing effect of being in love, her anger quickly subsided.

Yet, while she could contain her irritation, Thaddeus could not.

He grabbed her hand and clenched it tightly, forcefully pulling her into his embrace. His large hand gripped her shoulder as he glared at Warner with steely eyes.

“So that’s the kind of reputation the Bright family prides itself on. I thought it was just arrogance and rudeness.”

Warner’s brows knitted together, “What did you say?”

“Isn’t it true?”

Thaddeus, looking down from his height, created an oppressive atmosphere as cold as an iceberg, “I don’t care what the history is between your families, but I know Evadne–she’s a lady of grace and poise. She wouldn’t pick a fight without provocation. Your discourtesy towards her speaks volumes about you. Mr. Bright, as a man of standing and older than Evadne, your behavior is despicable.”

Evadne looked up at him, her eyes glistening with emotion.
