Chapter 70 Why did you against Evelyn?
In the car back to the city, Keith looked at Evelyn, who was squinting, and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
"Mmm, I'm fine," Evelyn replied.
"Thank you," Evelyn said after coming back to her senses.
Keith shook his head with a smile. "No need to thank me. After all, I haven't done anything yet."
"You coming to save me is already rare enough," Evelyn didn't mind it. For her, she owed Keith a favor.
It's just Dermot...
Just thinking about that man, her face took on a ghastly expression.
Cassie belongs to him, and she took action.
"What's the difference between intervening and Dermot taking action?" Keith asked, sensing that Evelyn was not in a good mood.
Without probing further, Keith knew that if Dermot was unhappy, he would be happy. The reason would be known sooner or later.
Evelyn nodded, not saying anything else. She needed to think about how to get her revenge.
In the Ackers family villa, Cassie sat on the bed, pale. She had been discovered... It filled her with panic for no apparent reason. But soon, she forced herself to calm down.
"What does it matter if Evelyn knows?" She had no evidence. The phone card was unregistered, and the transferred bank card couldn't be traced back abroad. Even if she confronted Dermot, no one would believe her.
Understanding this, her panic diminished slightly. She got up and walked out of the room, ready to go find Dermot. She couldn't just sit and wait for her judgement.
Just as she stepped into the living room, she saw Dermot coming towards the door.
"Dermot, why are you here?" She greeted him with a smile but faltered when she saw his darkened face.
Dermot looked at her coldly, not recognizing the Cassie in front of him. Remembering that Leonard Ackers had asked him to take care of Cassie, who was barely twenty at that time, always innocently following behind him and calling him Dermot. But now, there was no trace of the innocence of her.
As Cassie was being looked at by him, her heart started to panic. "Dermot, you..."
"Why?" Dermot spoke with a cold tone.
"What do you mean why?" Cassie pretended not to understand, but she had a strong intuition that it had something to do with Evelyn, even though she didn't want to believe it.
Seeing that she was still pretending to be clueless, Dermot felt even more disappointed. "Why did you against Evelyn?"
Because she had eavesdropped on Dermot and Todd's conversation, she knew that Evelyn was Dr. Kyte herself. Her face turned pale.
"Dermot, I don't know what you're talking about. I haven't even left the house today. Maybe someone is spreading rumors in front of you. You have to believe me. You know I'm not that kind of person," Cassie explained.
She was confident that Evelyn had no evidence, and no one could do anything to her if she denied it.
However, Dermot was extremely disappointed with her reaction. "What kind of person are you? Maybe I've never really known you."
"Dermot..." Cassie was filled with strong unease, trying to reach out and hold Dermot's hand, but he avoided her.
"When you answered that phone call just now, I was there too," he slowly spoke, causing Cassie to almost lose her balance upon hearing his words.
He had heard it... Even though outsiders couldn't hear her voice, Dermot definitely could.
In that moment, waves surged in Cassie's mind as she tried to come up with a suitable explanation and defend herself. But all she managed to get out was, "I..."
