Chapter 170

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the hall became awkwardly quiet.

Evadne turned around in surprise, meeting Avery’s warm gaze.

Mr. Avery’s call of “Evadne” made Byron’s face even more gloomy.

Emeric glanced at his daughter and then at Avery, his eyes becoming inscrutable. He just smiled faintly and said, “So Avery went out of his way to pick up Evadne? What a bother for you”

“Mr. Emeric, no need for the formality”

Arnold nudaca Ca**ius sitting next to him, and asked in a low voice, “Ca**ius, when did Evadne and Mr. Avery get so close? How come I didn’t know?

“Do you need to know everything about Evadne?” Ca**ius responded nonchalantly.

“Do you know about them being close?”

“I know.”

“Oh! Are you showing off?!”

“Tasked Avery to pick up Evadne.”

Arnold gasped, “Ca**ius, how could you casually hand your little sister over to another man? You can’t just judge a person by his appearance, and you need to see his heart. What if Mr. Avery has ill intentions toward our sister? What if he did something inappropriate to her on the way?”

“Having ill intentions is pretty normal. No man in this world, no matter how perfect, could resist Evadne’s charm. As for the latter, there is no need for us to worry.” Ca**ius slightly curled his lip, “If Mr. Avery was the kind of person you described, would he still be standing here intact?”

Exactly.

After all, when girls of the same age were still playing with dolls, Ca**ius and Elvis had already taught Evadne martial arts,

In fact, Ca**ius did this not without a selfish motive.

Thaddeus occupied thirteen years of Evadne’s life. Although she was now fully awake and had completely excluded that man from her heart, the deep wound Thaddeus left on her was hard to ignore.

At this time, a person needed to appear to fill the void in her heart.

Her brothers couldn’t play that role, but he thought maybe Avery could.

After the two families met, the men talked about various topics in the living room, and the three ladies pulled Evadne into the backyard for questioning.
