Save Her Lose Us (Evangeline and Soren) novel Chapter 235

Downstairs, Winston poured tea for Mr. Wellington with the utmost deference.

Mr. Wellington shot him a sidelong glance, his lips twisting in a grin that never reached his eyes. “Mr. Whitmore, are you certain you know how to make Evangeline come with me willingly?”

“Of course,” Winston replied with a smile. “After all, I am her father. She has no choice but to listen to me—and even if she refuses, I have ways of making her comply.”

Hearing Winston’s confidence, Mr. Wellington narrowed his eyes, feeling his mood lift.

Last time, not only had he failed to get what he wanted from Evangeline, but Soren and his friends had beaten him up. The memory still made him uneasy, yet his mind remained haunted by thoughts of her: Evangeline’s smooth, delicate back; her graceful figure; that innocent yet seductive face. He’d been restless ever since.

He’d almost resigned himself to losing her for good—until, just as he was ready to give up, word spread through their circle: Evangeline and Soren had divorced.

Divorced. That meant, whatever he did now, Soren would no longer stand in his way.

He could finally indulge himself...

A wicked anticipation curled through him as he licked his lips.

Just then, a knock sounded at the door.

Evangeline stood outside, and beside her, Finn played idly with her hand, clearly reluctant to let go.

Victor had once claimed that Evangeline had him utterly bewitched; Finn hadn’t believed it at the time, but now, he could understand. At the very least, he was completely taken with her hands—clean, slender, so pale against his own. And on her finger, she wore the diamond ring he’d given her.

Anyone who knew would say it was her mother’s keepsake.

But for those who didn’t… it looked very much like they were engaged.

Not that it was just others who sometimes got confused—even Finn himself, every now and then, felt a flicker of uncertainty. Evangeline trusted him, let him kiss her, accepted his closeness, as if she truly belonged to him, loving him with all her heart.
