Chapter 117 VT Gradually, I found myself zoning out again.
"That's all for now. You can discuss these designs with them when you get back," Eren said as he handedthe sketch papers.
I finally snapped back to reality and took the papers from him. "Okay, I'll head out if there's nothing else you want to add," I said, trying hard to avoid making eye contact with Ethan. Then, I turned to leave. However, the sharp sound of a chair scraping against the floor madeinstinctively look back.
Ethan stood there, staring directly at me, but he didn't say a word.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI was confused and pushed the door open so I could finally leave.
Once I sat at my workstation, I noticed my heart pounding like a drum.
"Evelyn, you're something else." I silently mocked myself and decided to wash my face to calm down.
The sound of running water helpedregain my focus. Looking at myself in the mirror, I adjusted my wet hair and took a deep breath before heading back out.
"Evelyn." I heard Ethan's familiar voice behind me. I hesitated for a moment but didn't plan to stop.
When he realized I was ignoring him, he cover and grabbed my shoulder.
"What do you want?" I turned toward him and frowned, brushing his hand off.
His gaze was intense, as if he could see right through me. Out of politeness-or maybe something else I stood there waiting for him to speak.
"Evelyn, um... I..." It was rare to see Ethan hesitate while speaking.
A sinking feeling hit me; if Ethan was hesitant, it must be about Leah.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeemed like he was here to mediate again. That bitch sure knew how to stir up trouble.
I didn't want to hear anything he had to say. "You're here to plead Leah's case, right?" I asked, cutting him off. "If so, there's no need to talk I'm busy, so please don't disturbif there's nothing important." I paused for effect. "Not even when there's something important." With that, I turned and walked away, leaving Ethan standing there.
At that moment, Ethan's phone rang. He picked it up, and upon seeing the caller ID, he immediately thought of Leah. His brow furrowed involuntarily, but he still answered.
A stern voice cthrough the phone. "Ethan, Leah calledin tears. Why aren't you helping her?" Leah. It was always Leah.
Ethan felt a wave of irritation, but he maintained his respect for lan.
e "Grandpa, Leah's the one who went against Evelyn-" "Can Evelyn even be compared to Leah?" lan cut him off. "I've watched her grow up! She toldeverything-she didn't do it on purpose. It's just a bracelet! And Evelyn even reported it to the police. You think someone so petty deserves your support?
"I heard Leah asked for your help, and you refused? Do you expectto handle this personally?
"Leah is really upset. Her pride is shattered that she doesn't even want to go back to university because of this. She likes you so much-how can you be so oblivious? I don't care what method you use, but you need to put this situation to rest!" Listening to lan's barrage of complaints, Ethan instinctively glanced in the direction where Evelyn had walked away. "Hey! Are you even listening to me, you brat?"
