Chapter 392

Adrian Valentine met his challenging gaze with a cold smirk.

Was Sebastian Orlando the man Evelyn Roland wanted to marry?

He'd investigated this man thoroughly.

Not an ordinary opponent.

His looks rivaled Adrian's own.

The power behind him was unfathomable.

"Fine. I could use someone to carry my bags." Evelyn walked out without glancing back.

Adrian pressed the elevator button, his gaze sharp as a blade on her retreating figure.

Sebastian smoothly placed a hand near Evelyn's waist.

Adrian's pupils constricted, forced to watch the elevator doors close between them.

Once out of Adrian's sight, Sebastian immediately withdrew his hand.

"Was he bothering you again?" His voice was low.

Evelyn shook her head. "Just ran into him at the supermarket."

Sebastian knew better but chose not to press.

A man like Adrian didn't deserve to stand beside her.

They'd just entered Scarlett Orlando's studio when Evelyn discreetly passed her a sanitary pad.

Scarlett emerged from the bathroom clutching her stomach. "Sebastian, take Evelyn shopping. I'm not feeling well."

Sebastian stiffened.

Couldn't this girl watch her words?

Evelyn's ears turned pink.

Scarlett successfully pushed them out the door.

The elevator opened to reveal Adrian rushing toward them.

Victor Ashcroft looked frantic. "Sir, Isabella Langley's been kidnapped!"

Adrian's brow furrowed. "Mobilize everyone. Find her immediately!"

His gaze brushed past Evelyn without recognition as he strode by.

A sharp pain pierced Evelyn's heart.

After two years, he could still panic for that woman.

Victor deliberately raised his voice. "Madam, the kidnappers have contacted Mr. Langley."

Evelyn's eyes gleamed.

Both Mrs. Langley and Mrs. Valentine knew the truth now.

This dog-eat-dog drama would be entertaining to watch.
