Chapter 335

Evadne didn’t feel embarrassed, if anything, she felt insulted on behalf of Avery.

She was a woman of clear sentiments, but she never looked down on anyone of treated anyone with scorn. That was not how she was raised.

“No biggie, if we’re not allowed in, we can come back when it’s open. Let’s go.”

Evadne didn’t want to cause any trouble for Avery. She casually suggested, “If you want to ride, you can come to my family’s ranch. It’s pretty much the same.”

Just as she was about to leave, Avery grabbed her hand, squeezing it gently, “Evadne, don’t go. We need to get in there tonight.”

Evadne’s fingers twitched as she instinctively tried to pull her hand back, but she couldn’t.

Avery’s tone was firm.

She had never seen this assertive side of him since they reconnected.

The two bouncers exchanged a look before one of them said coldly, “You better leave now, or don’t blame us for being rude. Mr. Byron is entertaining guests inside, no riff–raff allowed.”

Evadne was close to rolling her eyes to the heavens.

Riff–raff? They probably haven’t brushed their teeth, otherwise their words wouldn’t stink so bad.

“Oh, is that so?”

Avery, however, remained composed. He stepped forward, “What if I insist on going in?”

“Are you looking for trouble?”

One of the bouncers glared at him, ready to shove Avery away.

To his surprise, before his hand could even touch Avery’s shirt, he felt a blur before his eyes, and then a sharp pain in his arm, followed by a scream! Evadne’s eyes widened, as she watched Avery perform a clean shoulder throw, sending the bouncer crashing to the ground, unable to get up.

The other bouncer, seeing this, charged at Avery.

Another scream, another broken bone.

“Evadne, let’s go.” Avery pulled out a pristine white handkerchief from his pocket, delicately wiping his hands, his voice gentle towards Evadne. His demeanor was of an educated gentleman, as if the brute force displayed earlier had nothing to do with him.

Evadne was speechless.

Avery pressed his lips together, his expression tender. He reached for her hand again, leading her away without a second glance.

“Wait, wait! Who, who are you?” The bouncer on the ground asked in pain.

Avery paused, chuckling lightly, “My last name is Chambers.”

The two bouncers paled in shock.

Meanwhile, Thaddeus, unable to reach Evadne, was growing anxious in his luxurious car.

“Mr. Thaddeus, can’t you get a hold of Mrs. Abernathy?” Gordon was equally anxious.

“Yes. Even though she despises me, she never ignores my calls.”
