The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 328

A man of Danny's caliber attends countless elite galas and crosses paths with the best mixologists in the world. This drink is nothing groundbreaking. But since it comes from Tara—an amateur who just showed off a neat party trick—he acts like it is the nectar of the gods.

Damn, Luke thinks. He has fallen so hard for this gorgeous woman.

"Tara, what are you doing here?"

The atmosphere is perfect, and Tara is in a fantastic mood, but the sudden, jarring voice drags her spirits right into the dirt. She looks up to see Evan appearing out of nowhere, staring at her with feigned concern.

"It's dangerous for a girl to be drinking at a bar. You shouldn't be drinking, you hear me?"

Tara has no idea who gave him the right or the authority to speak to her like that. All she knows is that he is ruining her night. She doesn't even bother lifting her eyes, her face tight with disgust. He isn't nearly as tall or handsome as Danny, nor does he even measure up to Luke. Where does he get the nerve to play the overbearing protector?

"Tara, did you hear me?"

Seeing her completely ignore him while scrolling on her phone, Evan flushes with anger and humiliation. He is standing in public, talking directly to her, and she is treating him like empty air. He wants the ground to swallow him whole.

"I was wondering where that garbage truck explosion happened. Turns out, it's just you opening your mouth."
