Chapter 342 He Won’t Accept Anyone Else Besides Her
As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of everyone present changed slightly, especially Evelyn. The originally harmonious atmosphere had vanished, and it became slightly
subtle.
Although no one expressed it directly, Evelyn could feel that they were all worried about her.
After a few seconds of silence, Huston stood up from his seat,
reached for the coat behind the chair, and explained to Evelyn
