Chapter 718 You'd Better Really Have Something Important
Dermot remained silent. Evelyn knew he was definitely angry, but she still urged, "Well? What's your choice?"
Anyway, she had already decided that if Dermot insisted on not seeing her, she would confront him. No matter what, she had to see Dermot tonight,.
"Fine, you win." In the end, Evelyn won the bet. Dermot really needed the Kyte family's support at this moment.
They agreed on a meeting place, and Dermot hung up the phone and turned to walk back into the private room.
He sat back in his seat and continued talking with the clients as if nothing had happened. During this time, Margaret stole several glances at him but couldn't detect any change in his expression, which made her feel slightly relieved.
Dermot probably wouldn't like Evelyn. After all, he had amnesia now, and if anyone were familiar to him, it would be her.
Before long, the deal was settled, and they stood up and walked out of the private room together.
At the entrance, Dermot and Margaret watched the clients leave.
"You're really impressive," Margaret couldn't help but praise.
Perhaps Dermot's status wasn't as high as other members of the Doyle family, but in terms of ability, he was far superior to them. He was the boyfriend Margaret deserved, unlike those useless guys who only had a family background.
Dermot thanked her, "It's getting late. Let's head back."
"Okay." Margaret nodded and walked straight to the parking lot, only to find that Dermot wasn't following.
"What about you?" She was worried, sensing something was off.
"I have something to do so that I won't be seeing you off," Dermot said without explaining further.
But she knew it must be related to the call from Evelyn earlier. He was probably going to meet Evelyn.
Hatred grew in her heart, but she didn't voice it. "Alright, be careful. Finish up early and get some rest. Don't overwork yourself."
She knew he didn't like clingy women. If she pressed him now, it would only make him resent her, so she didn't.
Dermot drove away, and after a moment of hesitation, Margaret followed. She wanted to see if he was really going to meet Evelyn.
At the coffee shop, Evelyn checked the time again.
An hour had passed since their agreed meeting time, and Dermot still hadn't shown up. But she wasn't angry because she knew that since Dermot had decided, he would definitely come.
He was just deliberately being late to make her wait, but it didn't matter. She wouldn't leave just because of this.
As she refilled her coffee, Dermot arrived.
"You'd better have a good reason." As soon as he sat down, he made his displeasure very clear, looking at Evelyn as if she were an enemy.
Evelyn smiled and ordered him a cup of coffee.
Margaret's car was parked across the street from the coffee shop, where she could easily see Dermot and Evelyn inside.
Her grip on the steering wheel tightened uncontrollably. "Bitch! We agreed to stay out of each other's business, but you just had to bother Dermot."
"I won't let you succeed. Dermot can only be mine." She had invested too much time and effort in Dermot and had already made their relationship public.
She would never allow herself to lose.
With this in mind, she took out her phone and made a call. "Leak the information to the Roberts family that the Kyte family and the Allen family are teaming up against them, and they still can't figure out why."
"Oh, and make sure they know that Evelyn is the one instigating all of this," she added, reminding them.
