Chapter 385 What's the Relationship
The police arrived, and the customers left the store.
Watching Evelyn's confident smile, Natalie had no idea where her confidence came from. Could it be that she had evidence?
Filled with doubt, she approached Evelyn. "You claim you didn't plagiarize. Do you have any evidence?"
"Rest assured, I will submit my evidence to the police. Miss Barns, you should think about whether you have any loopholes. If I find any, your reputation will be ruined," Evelyn smiled, giving Natalie a sense of certainty.
Natalie was a little frightened by her words but quickly regained her composure. "I'd like to see what evidence you have!"
Before leaving, Natalie still felt unsatisfied. She turned back to Evelyn and got close to her. "Dermot hasn't had time for you lately, has he?"
Evelyn furrowed her brows but ignored her.
"Don't you want to know what he's been up to? I happen to know," Natalie smiled maliciously, her face showing ill intentions.
Standing up and avoiding Natalie, Evelyn prepared to leave. "No, I don't want to know. Dermot and I are perfectly fine, you don't need to worry."
"Fine? Then why do you seem like you don't know anything?" in Natalie's eyes, if Evelyn had known about Dermot's father's disapproval of their relationship, she wouldn't be smiling so happily.
Seeing Evelyn about to walk away, Natalie made one last remark on purpose. "By the way, have you been to Dermot's study and seen the photo? Isn't that woman strikingly similar to you?"
Evelyn couldn't help but stop in her tracks at these words. The next moment, she turned around and approached Natalie. "Who is that woman?"
She couldn't ask Dermot.
Unable to find much information online, she could only ask Natalie for help. Of course, she didn't fully trust Natalie's words but hoped to get a clue, even just a name, that would lead her to uncover everything about that woman.
Natalie smirked, somewhat surprised. "It seems like you've seen the photo."
Evelyn didn't argue and instead asked, "What is her relationship with Dermot?"
"What relationship?" Natalie's lips curled up. Looking at Evelyn's current expression, she felt strangely satisfied.
"Maybe you wouldn't believe it, but even someone like Dermot could be rejected," Natalie finally managed to vaguely utter these words.
Rejected? Evelyn's brow furrowed even tighter.
Natalie was in a great mood and was willing to chat with Evelyn a bit more. After all, it made her happy if she could make Evelyn uncomfortable.
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much. That woman was never really Dermot's girlfriend," Natalie said.
With her sudden remark, it seemed like she was comforting Evelyn, which puzzled her. "What do you mean?"
"The meaning is simple. Although Dermot really likes her, they never officially got together." Natalie indeed knew a lot about Dermot, at least more than what Evelyn knew.
Dermot really likes her?
Hearing this, Evelyn's heart felt as if it had been struck, and she felt a painful discomfort.
Natalie didn't care whether Evelyn was feeling bad or not. As long as she saw Evelyn's unhappy face, she felt content. "When Dermot confessed to her, she didn't accept but rather rejected him."
"But precisely because of this, Dermot couldn't forget about her, so he found you as a substitute. Do you think he is a jerk?" Natalie smiled joyfully, finally causing Evelyn to feel upset.
Although she knew Natalie had ill intentions, Evelyn couldn't help but feel distressed hearing all this.
Are all these things true? She couldn't help but doubt.
But... looking at Natalie's smug expression, it didn't seem like she was lying.
