Just after saying it, Evelyn regretted it.
Martin’s emotions were gemine in his eyes, feeling as if his actions were a bit like a beauty trap,
She smiled and prepared to change the subject.
A “good” froze Evelyn’s smile on her face.
My mind “clenched” suddenly, it’s over, is this person for real?!
Seeing that things were not going well, Evelyn decided to retreat quickly.
“Mr. Wilson, let’s discuss it next time when you have free time. I won’t disturb your rest.” Leaving these words, I politely exit.
Martin was left alone with a longing gaze he wanted to hold on to.
I hurriedly left the hospital.
Just arrived downstairs, I saw the familiar and luxurious Rolls–Royce parked at the entrance.
Many people started “clicking” non–stop to take photos.
Evelyn pulled the corners of her mouth and pretended not to see as she walked around.
Rolls–Royce followed carelessly and slowly behind.
After a long while, unable to bear Reed’s thick–skinned behavior any longer, I coldly knocked on
the car window.
“Evelyn, get in the car!” came the lazy, husky voice. The car window rolled down, revealing half–covered gold–rimmed glasses, exposing the slender and attractive eyebrows and eyes. Tilting her head back, she instantly revealed her fair neck, which looked quite tempting from this angle.
Damn this beauty-
This man was really good at using his appearance.
She took a deep breath, walked around to the other side, opened the car door, and moved inside.
“Mr. Peterson, really, you didn’t need to come pick me up,” Evelyn said, sitting down and giving Reed a disapproving look.
“But I wanted to pick you up,” Reed said, sounding a bit hurt, his voice slightly lowered with a hint
of sweetness.

Evelyn covered her chest and closed her eyes, she could not be tempted, she could not be tempted…
Shrugging, she opened her eyes and said helplessly, “You know my family, if my mom sees this, who knows what kind of trouble she’ll cause.”
The streetlight was dim, and Reed had a serious expression on his face. His eyes were filled with deep affection as he said, “Evelyn, I could accept everything about you.”
Evelyn’s heart skipped a beat, Reed’s reactions always caught her off guard. Sometimes, he would be so straightforward that it made her blush and her heart race, while other times he would be clingy and playful like a fox.
She thought he would throw a tantrum as he used to in the past.
But I didn’t expect…
This sentence rolled through the heart, as if a feather gently brushed across the heart, giving a tingling sensation.
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.
Reed leaned in, a little too close, and Evelyn could almost feel his breath right next to her ear.
“Evelyn, perhaps you could try to believe me.”
Evelyn couldn’t resist and was about to give in, almost saying yes.
A “beep” woke her up.
Reed cursed under his breath, giving a fierce glare at the rearview mirror, and started driving away.
Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief and sincerely thanked the driver behind her.
After a while, I arrived home.
The car stopped, and neither of them spoke.
A faint fragrance wafted over. It was Reed’s perfume.
The scene just now reappeared, and Evelyn felt her face uncontrollably heating up.
She seemed like she should say something.
After a moment, Reed spoke, “Evelyn, can you give me a chance?”
Evelyn froze, unsure of how to react for a moment. She tightened her grip on her bag and stared ahead without saying a word.

“It’s okay, I won’t push you, I can keep waiting… his low voice came again.
Evelyn’s heart tightened, feeling a bit reluctant.
His words had barely faded when Evelyn mustered up her courage and, holding her breath, cautiously said, “Once this project is finished, I will tell you the answer.”
Reed’s eyes lit up instantly, and he broke into a happy, silly smile.
Evelyn also laughed along.
Fool-
Evelyn lay in bed, carefully reminiscing about the scene just now, and couldn’t help but spin
around.
A message came through, shattering her good mood.
It is Evelyn’s mother’s information.
“I have arranged a blind date for you with wealthy people. Tomorrow at twelve o’clock, at table
number 15 in the King Restaurant, dress yourself up nicely.”
