Chapter 292 Behave Yourself
Evelyn was successfully irritated by him, it was the first time she had seen such shamelessness in all her life.
Just thinking about John having a father like this, she could guess how he usually spent his time at home. It couldn't help but make her feel sorry for the child again.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Jeff Nord's face turned cold, "Are you going to give it or not? If you don't, then I'll make John continue to work!"
Evelyn's face darkened at his words as she walked out from behind Dermot, standing in front of Jeff Nord.
Jeff Nord looked at Evelyn in front of him, feeling somewhat intimidated, but still stubbornly said, "What are you planning to do? You want to hit me?"
"Come on, hit me here!" Jeff Nord pointed to his own face and leaned towards Evelyn.
As long as Evelyn dared to make a move, he would immediately fall down, who knows he might even be able to extort some money.
Evelyn's hands by her side had already clenched into fists, and in the next second, she moved her hand.
But she didn't throw a punch, instead, she grabbed Jeff Nord's collar and lifted him up, "I warn you, if you dare to disturb John, I'll make sure you can't stand up for the rest of your life!"
The Evelyn in front of him was like a demon from hell. Jeff Nord was being held up by her and his legs were trembling.
Seeing this, Evelyn coldly sneered and then threw him to the ground, "Behave yourself."
Evelyn and Dermot left, Jeff Nord watched their retreating figures with intense hatred, grinding his teeth, "Just you wait! I won't let it go like this!"
As for John, the school was a closed-off institution where he couldn't enter, but Evelyn... he didn't believe he couldn't handle a woman.
In the elevator, Evelyn's anger hadn't subsided, Dermot shook his head helplessly, "There's no need to get angry at someone like that, you didn't need to dirty your hands just now."
"I am angry! How can John have such a despicable father!" Her words were full of anger. If it wasn't for the fact that he was John's father, she really wanted to teach him a lesson right now.
"Don't worry, I'll go and talk to the school, I promise he won't be able to disturb that child's education." The school Dermot found for John this time was no ordinary school. Jeff Nord probably couldn't even get in.
Hearing Dermot's words, Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief. "Well, thank you."
"Thank me for what? Isn't this something I should do?" The man asked with a smile, reaching out to touch Evelyn's head. "Let me handle people like that in the future, so you don't dirty your hands."
As warmth spread over her head, Evelyn's back stiffened and she couldn't move.
With a ding, the elevator arrived and Evelyn felt a sense of relief as she quickly walked out.
"It's late, get some rest," Evelyn said to him as they reached her own door.
Dermot nodded, a half-smile on his face. "Alright, you get some rest too, goodnight."
"Yeah, goodnight."
Evelyn then opened the door and disappeared from Dermot's line of sight.
Inside the room, Evelyn held her chest, her heartbeat racing too fast, realizing that she couldn't control herself.
What's going on? Why is her heart beating so fast right now? That man didn't even say anything.
Evelyn slapped her cheeks and realized that they were burning hot.
Getting up, she walked towards the bathroom and splashed cold water on her face, feeling slightly better. She looked at the woman in the mirror, her face covered in droplets of water, and muttered to herself, "Evelyn, why are you so weak!"
In that moment, Evelyn remembered the oath she made when she divorced Dermot, feeling even more ashamed.
She promised not to look back, right?
She promised to hate the Doyle family, right?
Evelyn, oh Evelyn, how can you break your promise?
But...She couldn't control her heart.
