Suddenly, Siobhan felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She was utterly stunned as an expression of disbelief
remained on her face.
“No, it’s impossible. My dad gifted it to me and spent a fortune on this. There’s no way he lied to me!”
She then whipped out her phone and punched in a number.
It only took a few beeps, and the call was quickly answered.
“Hello, Siobhan?”
“Dad, the Eternal Heart you gave me is fake, and you lied to me! Am I right?”
The man on the other end of the line fell silent for a long time before sighing heavily.
“Siobhan, I didn’t expect you to discover this. Since you’re a grown lady now, there is no need for me to hide the
truth from you.”
Siobhan remained silent, so her father went on, “When you saw Eternal Heart in a magazine back then, you insisted
on having it. However, Eternal Heart is not just any ordinary diamond. It is hard to buy even with money. So, I asked
a friend to make a replica of it.”
The truth was finally revealed, and the scar on Siobhan’s heart was forcibly ripped open again.
“N-No, you’re lying, aren’t you?”
She bit her lip with disbelief in her eyes.
“Why would I lie to you? Be more pragmatic. From tomorrow onward, all your credit cards will be suspended!”
With that, he hung up the phone. Siobhan was dumbfounded as she held the phone tightly in her hand.
Meanwhile, Angeline’s lips curled up slightly. With a smile on her face, she reminded unhurriedly, “Ms. Yiurk, you
slandered me with a fake diamond necklace and even threatened to send me to the police station. Don’t you think
it’s ridiculous?”
The look she shot Siobhan was frosty. Does she think I’m a pushover?
Siobhan glared at Angeline with resentment and bit her lip tightly, yet she was unable to formulate a response for
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe longest time.
“It seems like the commotion is over.”
Evander got up slowly and straightened his clothes, looking grim.
“I remember Yiurk Group wanted to propose a collaboration with me recently. It seems like that’s unnecessary
now.”
Everyone at the scene was baffled, and nobody dared to make a sound.
After all, Golding Group was a renowned and influential corporation in the business industry. Nobody wanted to risk
losing a collaboration with them.
By that point, Siobhan’s face was as pale as a sheet, and she was too stunned to speak.
With a sullen face, Zeferino came out in time to ease the tension. “Mr. Golding, please have mercy. Siobhan was
reckless, but her mistake wasn’t grave. Please forgive her.”
“It was her fault for offending Angeline.”
Evander’s eyes were particularly sharp. He looked directly at Siobhan, but he seemed to be speaking to everyone
present.
“Nobody can bully Angeline with me around!”
With that, he put his arm around Angeline and turned to leave the scene.
Angeline was puzzled as she stayed in Evander’s arms while looking at his profile.
What does Evander mean? Is he making our relationship public?
After leaving the event, Angeline got into Evander’s car. When she saw Sylas waiting outside patiently after closing
the door, she finally spoke up.
“Weren’t you being too reckless back there? Why did you acknowledge our relationship in public?”
“Are you afraid?”
“That’s not it…”
“So you don’t want to make our relationship public?”
Hearing that, Angeline appeared hesitant. She was silent for a while before she answered somewhat incoherently,
“I’m just not ready to do this. I’m a female celebrity, and there’s a limit to how long my popularity lasts. If I make
my relationship public, especially when you’re my partner, I’m afraid the public won’t take it well.”
“There’s no need to worry.”
Evander cupped her face in his hands with an extraordinarily passionate gaze. Then, he spoke in his deep voice
firmly.
“As long as you want it, I promise you’ll remain at the top of the pyramid, shining brightly like a star.”
Angeline was stunned speechless. She found herself getting lost in Evander’s eyes as if she would be mesmerized
by them forever.
Her heart gradually grew warm at his words.
She didn’t doubt Evander since he was more than capable of doing as he promised. However, Angeline felt more
uneasy because of this.
“Truthfully, I think it’s more relaxing for you to stop working and be my wife instead.”
Evander stretched out his hand to caress her hair as he gazed at her affectionately.
However, Angeline lowered her eyes, looking slightly dejected as her insecurity intensified.
What worried her most about going public was not her reputation but how long their love could last, especially with
Olivine’s interference. There was no way the latter would give up easily.
At that moment, a “click” sound was heard, and the door was pulled open from the outside.
While panting, Angeline’s assistant said, “Angie, I have been looking for you for a long time. Your phone has been
ringing for a while, and I don’t know who is calling, so I dare not answer it.”
Since they were at an event, Moistdore Cosmetics had rules prohibiting celebrities from using their phones for fear
of not achieving the desired outcome.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAngeline had given her phone to her assistant for safekeeping from the moment she entered the venue.
Angeline’s face grew serious when she heard what her assistant said. She took her phone and saw that it was a call
from an unknown number.
Pursing her lips, she dialed back.
Soon, the call connected before the anxious voice of Wilfred’s nurse was heard.
“Ms. Sorelle, you finally answered your phone! I’ve been trying to reach you all night.”
All Angeline could hear was the bustling voices of people on the other end of the phone, and it sounded like they
were crying, which was very noisy.
Suddenly, a sense of foreboding rose within Angeline. She didn’t dare to dwell on it as her hands trembled slightly.
“I’m sorry, I was attending a business event. Did something happen to Grandpa?”
The nurse paused for a moment before answering in a choked voice, “Please come to the hospital, Ms. Sorelle. Old
Mr. Sorelle has passed away.”
Angeline’s face was ashen as if she had been struck by thunder. It took her a long time to find her voice.
“What happened? No matter how grave Grandpa’s condition was, he shouldn’t have passed away this soon.
“It was Ms. Joseline. She went into Old Mr. Sorelle’s ward and said something to him. After she came out, Old Mr.
Sorelle’s heart stopped beating…”
Joseline! It’s her again!
Angeline’s eyes shone with resentment and hatred. Her arms trembled, causing her phone to slip between her
fingers and drop to the ground.
“Don’t be too sad.”
Evander wrapped his arm around her and said in a deep voice, “I’ll take you to the hospital now.”
At that point, Angeline could no longer speak. She shivered uncontrollably as though cold water had been flung on
her.
