Chapter 101
“Let me show you what a true beast looks like!”
Evangeline had drunkenly called out for Alex with such joy, a sound that still echoed in his ears.
That was why he was determined to prove to her through his actions that it was always him by her side. the one who passionately claimed her, always him.
Evangeline had woken up in a rage, and he realized she was filled with regret.
Regret for surrendering to him the night before.
He got out of bed and started putting on his clothes that were scattered around, doing so with a calm precision.
Walter was undeniably good–looking. Even in crumpled clothes, his charm was untarnished.
“Evangeline, weren’t we supposed to meet at the County Clerk’s Office? Make sure you’re not late.”
If Evangeline had never loved him, then he would grant her wish. He would agree to the divorce and let her chase after Alex.
With a decisive slam of the door, Walter left without a backward glance,
Just pulling up his pants and walking away, Walter was the epitome of a heartless cad.
Evangeline, thinking of her virtue lost in such a bewildering way, snatched a pillow and hurled it in the direction he had gone.
“Walter, you jerk!”
She was a complete mess: Her hair was a wild tangle, her eyes and lips puffy and swollen, and her body. was marked with bruises.
Walter’s doing was the cause of her misery. It was all his fault.
She vowed that if she got even the smallest chance, she would make him pay dearly, to get revenge.
Evangeline’s tears caught her off–guard as she struggled to get out of bed, the sharp pain in her body making her wince. She barely had the strength to take another step.
She had to push through. She had to get that divorce from Walter, the absolute worst.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She snatched up her phone and made a call. Someone’s played me. Find them, fast.”
She trusted entirely the person on the other end of the line, someone she had personally trained to be discreet.
It was not that she did not trust James. He was her uncle, and if he knew, he might just go berserk on Walter. The drama might escalate, and she would never forgive herself if Cole found out.
The County Clerk’s Office felt all too familiar.
Counting the wedding, this was Evangeline’s third visit.
Evangeline had a tough time getting ready in her hotel room. Nevertheless, she managed to make it to the meeting spot as fast as she could.
Walter, all dressed up in his sharp suit and shiny shoes, was already there, regularly checking his watch. It was clear he had waited a while.
The moment Evangeline stopped in front of Walter, he impatiently asked, “Why are you so slow?”
