The Queen Returns And She’s Unforgiving

Chapter 159

Evelyn was stunned for quite a while by Justine's words. Could it be true?

She looked at Lucas in front of her with gloomy eyes.

At that moment, she couldn't discern what Lucas was thinking at all. If things truly were as Justine had guessed, then he was going to great lengths to humiliate her and the Reeds as well. She could not accept that her mother's wedding ring would be worn on the hand of Millie's daughter.

"Evie, let's think of another way," Justine suggested anxiously, watching Evelyn and noticing how much paler she had become. Clearly, this had shaken her badly.

Evelyn nodded calmly.

Things had already come to this, so she could only take things one step at a time and figure out another way.

A charity gala had its own rules, and she certainly couldn't break them.

She looked ahead. Tiffany was in high spirits as her head turned toward Lucas as she spoke. Lucas was listening quietly.

To anyone watching, they looked like a perfect match, loving. This was contrasted by Evelyn's frustration and embarrassment.

Evelyn closed her eyes, forcing herself to calm down as quickly as possible. She wasn't a pessimistic person. Even if there were no path forward, she would find a way to carve one out.

She would never give up on her mother's ring.
