When They Beg, I Rise!

Chapter 402

After Matthew's words, Evelina's façade crumbled completely.

She hadn't expected Matthew to have overheard their entire conversation that day.

Gritting her teeth, Evelina said, "Mr. Everhart, you've really got it wrong. Lemmy has always had it out for us."

"With a family like yours, it's not just Lemira who would have issues, I'm bloody annoyed myself."

Matthew rolled up his sleeves, "Get lost, out of my sight, now."

Evelina was indignant, "Lemmy, Lucian really wanted to see you one last time. Are you really going to be this heartless?"

Grabbing a champagne bottle, Matthew splashed it towards Evelina, "Shut it, Miss Goody Two-shoes."

He could see right through her manipulations.

He despised the goody two-shoes the most.

Evelina screamed, having worn a brand-new, expensive dress that day.

But she dared not lash out at Matthew, knowing she couldn't afford to offend a member of the Everhart family.

She turned to a less attractive man nearby for sympathy, who then couldn't help but defend her, "Matthew, don't think you can bully people just because of your status." "I'll handle this myself."

Lemira, with a champagne bottle in hand, approached Evelina, "Cut the moral high ground act, stay away from me!"

Evelina hid behind her unsightly defender, not wanting to lose face in front of Matthew.
