Chapter 278 

The elevator doors slid open. Emily thoughtfully kept Evelyn in the elevator, not forgetting to help Evelyn press the button to the underground parking. 

Emily said, “Ms. Granger, we parked our car on the first floor. I’m afraid you’ll have to get to your car alone.” 

Evelyn felt the pain shooting through her heart after Brian rejected her. In the past, he was accommodating and sweet. This was the first time he had kicked her out. 

She felt oddly threatened. Such was a woman’s sixth sense it might not make much sense at the moment. 

She had a feeling that Brian must have had a crush on someone else.
