Chapter 228 Amazing Island Encounters
Many people held hands in front of the bright bonfire and formed a circle. Grace found a place to stand, and Evelyn followed. Unfortunately, there were too many people, so the two of them were separated and there were a few people between them.
“Grace, Grace…” Evelyn called out to her. However, the surrounding environment was too lively, and Grace had gone crazy playing, so she couldn’t hear her at all
Just as she was about to walk over to her, her left hand was suddenly wrapped in a faint warmth. Her body suddenly stiffened, thinking that someone had held the wrong hand. She immediately wanted to pull her hand back, but the more she pulled, the tighter her grip became.
There was a hint of anger in Evelyn’s eyes. She turned her head and was about to scold him in a low voice when she met a pair of deep dark eyes.
“It’s you?!”
After seeing the man’s face clearly, Evelyn resisted more violently and sobered up a little. “Are you following me?”
If the incident at the orphanage in Jewel City was an accident, then this time, she would never believe that it was a coincidence!
Bert looked down at the little woman in front of him. She was drunk and slightly tipsy. Her little face was ruddy, and her voice was nasal. She was wearing a V–neck dress, with dark blue and white skin. Her black and smooth hair fluttered in the wind, which was very eye–catching.
In the crowd, he almost saw her at a glance.
Hearing her angry question, the man curled his lips slightly. “It was indeed an accident.”
He didn’t expect to meet her here. He just came over to hold her hand when he saw her standing there. As for the reason, he was not very clear. He just wanted to get close to her.
“Nonsense!” Evelyn didn’t believe it at all. “Country Z isn’t so big. How could it be so coincidental that you met me twice at the same time and place?”

Bert shrugged. “It’s incredible indeed, but this is the truth. Besides, why should I follow you?”
“You!” Evelyn was at a loss for words. She just wanted to get rid of him immediately, and her face couldn’t help darkening. “No matter what you think, don’t follow me from now on, and don’t say hello to me.”
Bert sneered, “Miss Shelton saved my life. How could I pretend not to know you?”
Evelyn was already annoyed and had drunk a lot of wine. She was so angry that she couldn’t help but out of her temper with him. “If I had known that you would pester me like this, I wouldn’t have saved you at all!”
The smile in the man’s eyes disappeared in an instant, and his long and narrow eyes returned to their previous coldness, which made people feel cold at once. “Ha.”
He chuckled and then immediately released the big palm that was holding her. “Unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world.”
