The Queen Returns—And She's Unforgiving novel Chapter 115

There were two cars at the door.

Blake was the first to get out, and he was immediately followed by Derek and Lily, who came uninvited.

Evelyn looked terribly upset. She had never wanted Derek to come on her mother's death anniversary. Most of Naomi's suffering back then was caused by Derek. He had never visited her grave once after she passed away, so why did he suddenly turn up now?

"Evie, this is such an important day. How could you not inform me about this?" Derek walked up to her with a frown. He looked slightly displeased and helpless as he continued, "I should be present."

Evelyn subconsciously looked at Blake.

If not for Blake, Derek might not even remember what day it was.

Blake met her gaze and frowned. He wanted to say something, but Derek waved and said, "You don't need to blame Blake. We were once husband and wife, after all. How could I not remember this day?"

Evelyn, however, found it amusing. Derek's hypocrisy made her feel like puking.

Did he pick this day to piss them off? Nobody in the Reed family would welcome him.

"There's no need. My uncle and grandmother don't wish to see you. Please leave," Evelyn said with the last shred of decency she could muster, but her tone was still icy.

Derek frowned. He looked at her with a complex and displeased expression. "What kind of attitude is this? Have you forgotten that I'm your father?"

Evelyn curled her lips. "Mr. Harrison, should I remind you that my last name is Reed?"

Their father and daughter relationship had dwindled since three years ago.

Derek's expression darkened. Feeling slightly pissed off, he said, "Why are you becoming more and more like your mother? You're stubborn and unyielding. If it wasn't for me, how could you have married Mr. Grant and live such a comfortable life? Do you think you can marry above your station on your own?"

Derek was infuriated. How could Evelyn be so ungrateful? How could he have raised such an ungrateful daughter?

Evelyn's expression finally changed. She thought of all the miseries she had experienced in the past three years and said sarcastically, "You're right. If it wasn't for you, I never would have ended up in this state."
