Chapter 352

"Knock, knock!"

Just as their lips were about to meet, a loud rapping on the car window startled them.

Brooks jumped, pulling away from the kiss. He glanced up.

It was Charles, looking none too pleased.

The noise woke Evelyn too. She blinked awake, following the sound with her eyes.

Through the glass, she locked eyes with Charles, who was clearly fuming.

Instantly, Evelyn was wide awake.

"Brooks, you should head home and get some rest," she said calmly, handing him his jacket.

This was her way of telling him to steer clear of the drama between her and Charles. It was a quiet nudge for him to leave.

With that, she opened the car door and stepped out, offering Brooks a small, reassuring smile to signal his exit.

She shut the door behind her and walked straight inside, not even glancing at Charles.
