Infidelity: His Regret, My Revenge – A Twisted Love Story You Can't Ignore

Chapter 25

Evan turned to me, his tone humble and gentle.“I heard someone questioned your innocence; I spoke out of turn, without your permission. I hope I haven’t caused you any trouble.”

Suppressing my surprise, I replied, “…It’s my fault for causing you trouble, Mr. Jones.”

“Shall I clarify the situation for everyone?”

“…Please.” I restrained a gasp. Since he was here, refusing would be foolish.

The women present were practically starstruck; he was so handsome, so gentlemanly, so refined. His humble inquiry was captivating.

Evan addressed the crowd.”Last night, I saved Ms. Frost.”

“I was meeting a client at that hotel. Leaving, I encountered Ms. Frost in the hallway, disoriented. The person assisting her seemed suspicious, so I had the hotel investigate; then, I helped her. Luckily, we arrived in time; she wasn’t harmed.” He gave a detailed account, omitting ambiguous details. This served as testimony while preventing malicious rumors.

I admired his thoroughness. But a man so meticulous… why would he “stroll” into this event, inviting trouble? Unless… I was so miserable, he’d felt an overwhelming surge of sympathy?

Lost in thought, I stared at him; this adoring gaze didn’t escape Julian’s notice. He clenched his fists.

The Shaws and Crowes were silent; Rita tried to cause more trouble, but Caffrey covered her mouth. The guests nodded, fully believing Evan’s account. The Jones heir’s testimony carried immense weight! Even if I’d slept with eight men, even with irrefutable evidence, they’d turn a blind eye and a deaf ear. To contradict him would be to insult him. But his concern indicated nothing had happened; otherwise, even a pitiable beauty wouldn’t evoke his compassion if she were truly defiled.
