Chapter 117 Give Me an Explanation for the Trouble
As the banquet neared its end, Evelyn couldn't help but sigh with relief. These kinds of occasions really weren't suitable for her. She should try to avoid them in the future.
However, didn't Aidan say he would come too? Why hasn't she seen him?
She searched around for Aidan and Niall, but found nothing. Just as she was about to withdraw her gaze, she happened to see a familiar face.
Her eyes narrowed, and she walked over.
When Evelyn caught Ruby Kite, she was cautiously avoiding the crowd, seemingly trying to make herself invisible. Therefore, when she was caught, she was a little incredulous.
She had been so careful, yet she was still discovered?
Evelyn felt hilarious.
What is Ruby thinking? Patting her shoulder, Evelyn said with a slightly unpleasant tone, "Kite, could you please explain to me?"
Oh no, Evelyn is angry.
Only when she is angry does she call her Kite.
Ruby Kite turned stiffly, meeting Evelyn's not very nice expression, and awkwardly smiled, "I came immediately after finishing my work at the company."
"Oh, really?" Evelyn's eyebrows raised, her tone floating in disbelief.
"Yes," Ruby Kite nodded, serious.
Evelyn rolled her eyes, pulled her to a less crowded place, and coldly interrogated, "What have you been up to lately? Be honest with me."
She had thought that Ruby Kite was acting abnormal before, but didn't give it much thought, thinking it was just her overthinking.
But now she was certain that this girl was definitely hiding something from her.
Ruby Kite pursed her lips and rare silence fell.
Indeed, Ruby Kite had encountered a lot of things recently, which bothered her, but she couldn't tell Evelyn. She knew Evelyn's personality, unable to stand seeing friends being wronged. If she knew the whole story, she would definitely make things difficult for that person.
But...
That person had an extraordinary identity. Someone that no one in Moris City could afford to offend. She had heard that they were even friends with Dermot. In this situation, how could she dare let Evelyn know?
"Hurry up!"
Evelyn's face was serious, and Ruby Kite was startled. Annoyed, she said, "It's nothing. Just that my dad's company has been quite busy lately, and I've been occupied."
"Ruby Kite, do I look like a fool to you?" Evelyn's voice was cold, clearly genuinely angry.
Helpless, Ruby Kite sighed and said, "I've recently met a man."
"A man?" Evelyn's voice suddenly rose, filled with disbelief.
Since Ruby Kite broke up with her last boyfriend, there hadn't been a man in her life for three whole years.
"Shh." Ruby Kite gestured for her to keep her voice down, then continued, "Is it necessary to make such a big deal out of it? You got married and divorced, so what if I have a man in my life?"
"I also remember someone saying that she would remain pure for that scumbag," Evelyn said coldly. If it wasn't for that, she wouldn't be so astonished.
Ruby Kite felt a bit embarrassed and dryly chuckled, "I was just joking and you took it seriously."
Evelyn looked at her, not saying anything.
"Well, well, it's mainly because I never expected to meet him either." Talking about Craig, Ruby Kite's mood became complicated.
Knowing it was because of a man, Evelyn wasn't as worried and asked, "What's his name? Where does he live? How old is he?"
"What is this? The Gallup?" Ruby Kite was speechless.
"I'm just looking out for you." After all, she was her best friend and didn't want her to make the same mistake again.
Okay, my friend, if this is a scam, it would be the most hilarious thing ever.
Ruby Kite shook her head and said to her, "Don't ask so many questions. When it's appropriate, I will bring him to meet you."
"Appropriate?" Evelyn didn't understand what she meant.
