Chapter 742 Let Go of Him
As Stephen met her gaze, he could see that there was no deceit in her appearance. Marrying her back would
indeed save a lot of trouble.
“Alright.” He confirmed. But then, his tone shifted. “But…” Evie was a little nervous, her hands tightly clutching the
sides of the dress. “But what?”
Stephen looked down at her and asked with a light smile, “Do I look like someone who would cheat in marriage?”
Evie didn’t even think about it and immediately shook her head. No, he didn’t seem like that at all.
“But our marriage lacks any kind of emotional attachment. Therefore, even if you have someone else in your heart,
it wouldn’t be considered cheating.” Evie told him truthfully what was in her heart.
“You married me for family reasons, and I married you for family reasons. We both have our own reasons, so…”
“So, are you playing tongue twisters with me?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStephen looked at her, who wore a serious expression and deliberately interrupted her words, a faint smile
appearing on his handsome face. “I just don’t want you to feel burdened. Don’t miss out on the person you love just
because you married me.” Evie’s tone was extremely sincere. She Towered her head slightly as she spoke.
“Because I know how painful and regretful it is to lose the person you love.” Stephen frowned slightly when he
heard Evie’s words.
They were both people who had been hurt by their love. He raised his hand and touched a girl other than Zayla for
the first time. Stephen placed her chin lightly, causing her to look up.
“Have you completely let go of him from your heart?” he asked. Evie nodded. “He is already my brother-in-law.”
Brother-in-law? It sounded interesting.
There were three daughters in the Olsen Villa, and she was the second eldest. As an illegitimate child, she was
naturally the least favored. “As long as you’ve let go.” As for the past between her and that “brother-in-law,”
Stephen didn’t want to know.
Just as he did not want to open up his heart to anyone, telling them how much he once loved his sister. Evie looked
at him with a little confusion in her eyes. Stephen lowered his head and narrowed the distance between them.
“You should understand my identity. Every little thing I do could have a big impact.” Evie nodded. “Don’t worry. I
won’t trouble you.”
Actually, from the very beginning, Stephen had thought this blind date was a huge trouble. He was disgusted by the
idea, wanting to go through the motions. But later on, after carefully thinking about it, he understood his mother’s
good intentions.
Therefore, Stephen changed his mind and turned the original blind date banquet into a private meeting between
them.
Why a private meeting? It was so that he could better explain that all he wanted was a marriage partner. But
before he could say anything, Evie’s act of secretly opening the door caught his attention.
When she appeared in front of him, wearing a plain and elegant dress, She was like a glacier lily, delicate and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmresilient, thriving in the unforgiving high-altitude climate. But Evie always lacked that confidence.
When talking to him, her voice was soft, and her head was lowered. It was as if she was always a step behind
Stephen. Yet, this aspect of her made it difficult for him to feel displeased with her.
Later, after some explanations from her, Stephen understood. The lack of confidence she displayed was due to the
harsh suppression by the Olsen family during her growth. She always kept her head down, appearing shorter than
him, and it was also because of the Olsen family. Why did he choose the most insignificant one out of that stack of
photos? One was to better negotiate the marriage, and the other was not to bring any threat to the Vargas Group.
The third reason was his personal one, probably because of his own background. It was precisely because he had
been through the rain that he wanted to hold an umbrella for someone else.
The atmosphere in the private room grew increasingly cold. Evie pursed her lower lip, wondering if she said
something wrong just now. But she was already being so careful… “Mr. Vargas?” she called out tentatively.
Stephen came back to his senses, and his voice sounded again. “What do you think constitutes causing trouble?”
Evie said without hesitation, “For example, being with another man…”
