Chapter 162 Evelyn didn't look at the stage again. Picking up her glass, she continued drinking her juice.
Meanwhile, upstairs, Brandon and the others naturally didn't miss this "fight".
Brandon lazily leaned on the couch and laughed. "This is rather amusing. Evelyn truly overestimated her own capabilities-from fighting Ms. Moore for the ring to fighting her for the opportunity to perform... the word 'female competition' is written all over her face!" He suddenly thought of that tat the art exhibition when Flynn told him gossip about Evelyn having a husband. Tiffany even helped Evelyn by stopping them from gossiping. At least Tiffany hated the rivalry between women so much that she even put aside past grudges and helped Evelyn maintain her dignity.
Evelyn couldn't compete with Tiffany in that aspect.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHarry raised a brow slightly, and his gaze naturally landed on Evelyn.
Brandon leaned over and added, "I think Evelyn won't give up on Mr. Grant for a while." However, Harry thought about it for a moment and replied, "Not necessarily." Brandon looked at him, confused, but Harry didn't plan to explain himself.
Just now, the moment Lucas and Tiffany got on the stage, he happened to see Evelyn's mocking sneer when she leaned forward to drink her juice.
She absolutely didn't care.
Evelyn was able to remain calm because she had trained her heart over the years to withstand stress. However, Justine, a bystander, was unable to stay calm. She angrily looked at the two people on stage who seemed like a perfect match. All she could do was feel sorry for Evelyn.
Had Lucas ever truly regarded Evelyn as his wife? How could he so openly display affection with another woman with no regard for Evelyn's feelings or well-being? "I really want to leave immediately if we don't still need to find Fergus. Who cares about watching those two play in perfect harmony?" exclaimed Justine as she downed a glass of chilled sparkling water in one go, still fuming with suppressed anger.
She couldn't even begin to imagine how Evelyn had endured all those years. Evelyn shook her head. "As long as I can find Fergus, nothing else matters." Justine could only nod. "Alright. But I have to admit, Lucas plays quite well. Truly the product of a top-tier heir's education. Besides, having more skills never hurt." Evelyn didn't respond because she didn't expect it either.
Now, it seemed that even after three years, she still couldn't understand or truly see through a person. Yet Tiffany had gotten Lucas to completely open his heart to her in a few months.
It was clear how high the walls Lucas had built were when it cto emotions and daily life with her.
Tiffany and Lucas' performance cto an end. The applause was thunderous.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis time, Lucas stood and put his hand out to Tiffany. Tiffany smiled, placed her hand in his palm, and bowed gracefully as she stood with him. She was elegant like a swan.
The man beside her was cool and striking, making her appear even more dazzling.
The result was obvious, and in the end, five schools would be built in the names of Tiffany and Lucas.
Evelyn no longer felt any ripples of emotion. Her heart had gone numb and painless.
The banquet continued.
The host stepped on stage, wearing a smile. "Tonight isn't only about the charitable donations for children in impoverished areas-it is also a celebration of another joyous occasion for the Clark Group!"
Only then did Evelyn turn her head. She noticed Jessica walking onto the stage hand-in-hand with Blake.
Jessica was full of joy and happiness as she clung to Blake's arm andm looked out over the crowd. "Today, Blake and I have decided to get engaged!"
