Chapter 82: Let’s Sleep After I Ravish You Tonight

"Of course. I always have one," she replied with a grin. "Just so you know, from now on, I'll always protect you."

She put her phone down on the side table before lying next to me. There was space between us, as she was still as picky as always. She didn't like anyone close to her except Mason and Ash. Of all people, I never expected Evangeline to say that.

I didn't speak; I just looked at her. She knew I was staring intensely at her, probably why she wasn't looking back.

"You're aware of how much I liked Ash... even when we were kids. I know Mason already told you that; that jerk loves to talk," she began. "And you're carrying his child. Of course, I'll protect you." Her voice was full of hope and pain at the same time. I didn't know the feeling of heartbreak as she did, but I understood how hard it was to watch the person you love... love someone else. But at the same time, I realized people are different. People have their ways of loving someone.

Simon, my father, was trying to get me because he didn't want Mason to take over the mafia. He didn't care if others got hurt as long as he saved the person he wanted to save.

Evangeline, on the other hand, didn't mind the pain she felt while protecting me. She didn't think about how much it hurt to watch over me... or even just see me, knowing how deeply she once loved Ash. They had the same bloodline running through their veins: Parker. Yet they had such different characteristics.

"Thank you, Evangeline," I said sincerely, not taking my eyes off her as I spoke.

"Don't thank me yet, bitch. After you give birth, I'm going to pull your hair," she snorted, rolling her eyes.

I couldn't help but laugh. Her feisty side still shone through.

Evangeline looked at me. "Ash is much stronger than you think."

"Huh?" I frowned, surprised that she suddenly brought him up when we'd been talking about something else.

"Learn to trust him with all your heart," she said, turning to face me. "Ash may be hard to love, but he loves deeply, and you're a lucky bitch because he loves you. He's only like this with you." She looked at me intently.
