Chapter 207 Captured

Deborah was caught off guard and startled. She quickly lowered her gaze to take a look.

Joseph spoke casually, not even looking at her, yet he gently held her hand in his palm.

Although their hands were under the table, there were still so many people present.

Deborah’s face turned slightly red, wanting to pull her hand away, but Joseph’s grip only tightened.

Deborah felt awkward, but he acted as if nothing had happened, continuing the conversation as usual.

Deborah couldn’t free her hand, so she just let him be, pretending to be calm and continuing to eat with one hand. Evelyn was eating melon up close, almost going crazy with delight.

She had been secretly watching Deborah and Joseph all along, and when Joseph discreetly took Deborah’s hand, she immediately noticed.

Evelyn’s face turned even redder with excitement than Deborah’s.

She stealthily turned on her phone’s camera and reached under the table, attempting to take a sneaky photo. She wanted to stretch her hand out a bit further, to get a little closer, so she could take a clearer picture.

With Adrian in between, he suddenly frowned and said, “Can you restrain yourself a bit? Why are you hitting me?” Evelyn was caught off guard and startled. Her body, already leaning to one side, suddenly lost its balance and she lunged directly towards him.

Adrian sat in the chair, unable to back away, and he couldn’t possibly push her to the ground either.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Evelyn threw herself into his arms, and the two of them almost fell to the ground together.

Adrian reacted quickly, immediately reaching out to support the back of the chair, preventing it from falling over.

steady herself on the table, but instead, she accidentally

As Evelyn lunged forward, she instinctively reached out to knocked over a glass of wine in front of Adrian.

The red wine spilled out completely, drenching her coat entirely.

The light-colored coat was stained with a large patch of dark red from the spilled wine, and Evelyn’s face turned beet

red.

Should she say it or not? As she hesitated, she found herself leaning on Adrian’s chest. She reached out to support herself, and noticed that this man seemed quite sturdy.

Looking at the delicate skin, there’s actually muscle on the body.

Adrian was wearing a black shirt in the private room, where the air conditioning was turned on. Feeling a bit warm from the alcohol he had consumed, he took off his sweater and coat, leaving them outside.

Evelyn touched something, realized what it was, and immediately stood up and moved away from him.

The eyes of the crowd all turned this way in unison, staring in amazement.

It was really unexpected that Evelyn was so bold and unrestrained.

In front of a large crowd, not only did she throw herself into Adrian’s arms, but she also directly started touching

him.

There was not just the Moxley family here, but also outsiders present.

Nora had a smile hidden in her eyes as she stepped in to help Evelyn, “Adrian, there are so many people here, mind your manners and don’t bully Eve.”

Adrian protested, “Mom, she’s the one who pounced on me! How did it turn into me bullying her?”

Nora said seriously, “I saw everything. What did you say something that scared Eve? It was because of that she lost. her balance and fell towards you.”

Joseph immediately joined in the excitement, his face showing sudden realization, “Oh, I see! I knew Evelyn wasn’t just some random person.”

Donna laughed so hard that her face was full of wrinkles. “Adrian, this kid, just can’t hide his thoughts. Alright, alright, he’s just a young man, there’s nothing wrong with making a fuss. Let’s all continue eating.”

Evelyn’s face turned red all the way to her ears, and everyone around her had an expression that said, “We all

understand.”

Adrian wanted to explain, but no one was willing to listen to his excuses.

After all, no matter what, Evelyn is a girl, and even if she’s open-minded, it’s unlikely that she would suddenly throw herself into his arms in public for no apparent reason.
