Evangeline was aware that her notoriety had spiked after her split w walter, thanks to Julia, the deceptive charmer. It was absurd, however, to think that a quick restroom break would turn her into the
talk of the town.
Roslyn let out a sly chuckle “Before we dive into that. Evie, let me introduce you to a friend.”
Of course, she was not just doing this for Matthew’s sake–she was really trying to stall for time.
With Evangeline looking on in surprise, Roslyn tugged Matthew to the front
“Meet my friend Matthew Chale He’s got killer vocals and is a Binger Roslyn beamed.
“Hi there. Ms. Evangeline.” Matthew said, offering his hand confidently
“Hello, Mr. Chale.” Evangeline responded, shaking his hand with a polite nod before quickly letting go.
Evangeline was more preoccupied with the sudden change in the room’s mood than with this Matthew who had popped up out of nowhere
Unbeknownst to her, someone in the comer had snapped a perfect shot of her handshake with Matthew.
Bathed in the glow of the screen, Evangeline’s natural beauty shone through her face without a trace of mükeup yet captivating.
Her clothes were nothing special, but her stunning figure made everything she wore look effortlessly chic To Matthew, Evangeline was like a fairy–so–ordinary, yet so breathtakingly beautiful.
The place was crawling with good–looking people. However, when Matthew laid eyes on Evangeline, he was spellbound.
His heart raced in a way it never had before, his cheeks feeling unusually warm
Clutching his chest, as if to keep his heart from jumping out, Matthew had an epiphany
He was head over heels.
It was not because of who Evangeline was or that she was the lyricist he desperately needed. He was utterly enchanted by her, by the sheer allure of her presencel
“Oh yeah? What kind of beats do you dig?”
Their chat about music took off, and they were quickly lost in the conversation.
However, in a corner, a pair of eyes watching Evangeline sharpened with intensity.
Who was that guy, anyway? Why was Evangeline chatting him up for so long?
Walter was seething, his anger simmering with no outlet, and he clenched his fists out of sight.
As the secret backer of the movie, he had to make an appearance to support his own investment. He had even booked the whole midnight show for some alone time.
Who would have thought that the tickets he had handed out as a favor would draw such a crowd?
There was also one surprise he had not counted on–Evangeline.
In the dimness, the cold aura around Walter grew even more intense.
