Save Her Lose Us (Evangeline and Soren) novel Chapter 346

She had heard a rumor that Mr. Howard had been in a car accident a while back, losing a leg, and that Soren had something to do with it. She had dismissed it as gossip at the time.

But looking at him now, could it be true?

Just then, Evangeline caught a strange look from Poppy, who quickly averted her gaze when their eyes met. She frowned, sensing Poppy was hiding something.

While Evangeline was trying to figure it out, Poppy put on a placating smile. "Mr. Howard, what are you doing here? There must be some kind of misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?" Mr. Howard patted his empty pant leg and sneered. "What misunderstanding could there be? Soren cost me my leg, and..." His jaw clenched. "Now, I just want him to come here and end up just like me."

"As for you two," he added, his voice dangerously calm, "I can let it go."

Poppy's heart clenched. Her wedding to Soren was only days away. She didn't want anything to happen to her, nor could she bear to see Soren hurt.

She bit her lip, her gaze flickering toward Evangeline as she hesitated.

Evangeline didn't notice. Hearing Mr. Howard's words, some of her tension eased, but she was still confused. This had nothing to do with her. If he just wanted to lure Soren here, why kidnap her?

As if sensing her confusion, Mr. Howard wheeled himself over to her. "Don't think you're innocent in all this. I lost this leg because of you."

"Because of me?" Evangeline frowned, completely baffled. How was she involved?

Seeing her bewildered expression, Mr. Howard let out a cold, harsh laugh. "How amusing. Soren never told you, did he?"

His eyes roamed over her, his gaze greedy and unsettling. Evangeline felt a chill and instinctively tried to pull back, but the ropes held her fast.
