Chapter 239 Countdown
If worse came to worst, they’d have Evan fake his death and live his life under a new name. That was what Roxanne and An wished for. Evan was the one who had that contract.
If he thought he could marry all three of them… Well, dream on! They thought, ‘Losing who you are and living as a rat in the sewers will be your fate!’
Something cold gleamed in Roxanne and Anya’s eyes.
Gabriel was in a luxurious presidential suite, enjoying the massage of many beauties. A long while later, his eyes snapped of Evan’s grace period is coming to an end. One more day and it’ll be over. Finally, I can move my muscles. I’ve been here for fa too long.
“If I didn’t know better, I’d have thought this was a vacation.”
That was the cue. Gabriel was going to attack Evan right after the divorce. The Norwoods were keeping an eye on Evan as wel Darius smiled. “Tomorrow’s the last day of the grace period.”
Jamės, Josephine, and the Norwood sisters grinned. Everyone knew what that meant.
The Norwoods roared, “He’s dead once the divorce is done!”
James was snarling and growling, “I can’t wait for tomorrow. Never been so excited for a day in my entire life! He’s the reason we’re in this mess! He’ll be torn to pieces! To think that he laughed at us? He’s going to end up worse! I wish time would go faster!”
The Norwood sisters’ cheeks hurt from their wide smiles. There was only one more day left until Evan’s reckoning. The Norwoods were jumping up and down with jubilation.
Gaius was still recovering in the sanatorium. The mayor and Ivana were with him.
He let out a hearty laugh. “The divorce is tomorrow, eh? Big day! Sylvie can marry him right after that!”
The mayor didn’t look happy at all. “Pardon me, Mr. Stanton, but Sylvie’s not the only one who has a shot at winning Evan ove
Gaius was aware that Estelle wouldn’t marry anyone but Evan. “Ah, to be young again. That’s their business, but my family fear no one when it comes to challenges.”
“My daughter’s not bad either. Estelle’s her campus’ belle.”
“My granddaughter has known Evan the longest. Their bond’s the deepest.”
“My daughter’s 18 years old.”
“My granddaughter is worth billions!”
“My daughter’s 18 years old.”
“My granddaughter has gotten a PhD overseas…”
“My daughter’s 18 years old.”
The gentlemen continued to squabble. In the end, Gaius was bristling. He and his daughter are the same! So wharf Estee years old?’
“Dad, Mayor, stop fighting. What it another girl snags Evan?” An alluring chuckle stopped the angrepant

Gatus and the mayor turned around in surprise. Although Ivana was smiling, Gaius noticed something more in her expressio She was… being coy. He wondered, ‘Could it be that Ivana…’
Gaius’ face darkened as he let out a gasp. ‘Oh, dear God, no. What’s going to happen to Sylvie if Ivana’s making a move? Lord help me!’
As the last day of the grace period arrived, Sylvie went out early in the morning and bought a hundred sets of clothes. Then, si tried all of them on. ‘I’ll bring my A-game to Evan tomorrow!’ she thought. ‘I won’t let you win, Estelle!’
Estelle had left the villa, too. She’d planned on leaving after the grace period started its countdown.
