The Queen Returns—And She's Unforgiving novel Chapter 120

Her eyes met Lucas' deep gaze at this moment. "Here," he said as he looked at her indifferently.

Evelyn was surprised by his gesture toward her. Situations like this rarely happened. They did not interact much, and Lucas was not the type to be sentimental.

As for his thoughtfulness now, it was most likely thanks to Tiffany's influence.

Expressionless, Evelyn took the tissue and turned to leave. But before she could, she tripped over a cushion and twisted her ankle in the process.

"Be careful."

"Careful!"

Two voices could be heard, one after the other.

Soon enough, two hands reached out and steadied her at the same time.

Evelyn looked up and glanced toward Lucas and Blake, who were both beside her.

Lucas watched with a calm expression, and his tone was unhurried.

Blake, on the other hand, raised a brow at Lucas. "I never knew you had a soft spot for damsels in distress too."

This made Evelyn a little uncomfortable. He was just taking a dig at Lucas' indifference to her in the past.

"Thanks," Evelyn said as she pulled her hands free from both of them.

Lucas did not say much to Blake. He lowered his gaze and said to Evelyn, "Take care."

Meanwhile, Justine had already pulled out her phone and snapped a photo almost instantly.

She leaned over to Sebastian and whispered, "Doesn't Tiffany follow you on Instagram?"

"What do you want?" He was sure that she was up to something when she asked that.

"Post this on your Instagram Story and make it so that only she can see it. We've got to help Evie regain the upper hand!" Justine answered as she forwarded the photo to Sebastian. "Since she can't tell who's the real deal, we'll just have to put her in her place!"

Sebastian was left speechless. Justine sure knew how to hit someone where it hurt.

That said, he was not exactly a saint either. He was quite protective of his friends too.

As for the Instagram Story, he did not limit it to just Tiffany. He tagged Mason and Jason too. Surely, at least one of them was bound to see it.

He marveled at just how kind he was to not leave them out on the good stuff.

Evelyn had no idea what Justine and Sebastian were plotting behind her back. The ceremony was already enough to keep her busy.
