Evelyn figured she wouldn't even get the chance to explain before Charles decided she was lying because she couldn't stand Dahlia and her daughter. So, instead of heading straight to Charles, Evelyn left the hospital. Just as she stepped outside, a sleek black Maybach rolled up, stopping right in front of her.
