Chapter 156

Author: Happy Breadwinner
Fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars arrived at the government complex, one after the other. They surrounded the whole area, their sirens echoing down the streets.

Inside the now-empty building, faint rustling sounds echoed through the halls. Bodyguards, armed with sharp blades, dispersed and searched floor by floor. Whoever was holding Beverly captive would not be spared.

"Mr. Gray, this is the floor plan of the government complex, as well as the accommodation arrangements for the international dignitaries and their teams," Lucas said, flipping through the documents to show Evan.

Evan ordered decisively, "Find where James Bronson is staying."

Lucas quickly located it. "Eighth floor!"

"You lot, follow me. The rest of you, keep searching."

James' cold, indifferent expression flashed through Evan's mind, and the rage surging through his chest nearly seeped out through his eyes.

He didn't care who James was. If he'd dared to take Beverly right from under his nose, then Evan wa

    James froze, his eyes fixed on Beverly's hands pressed against his chest in resistance.As he took a moment to compose himself, he looked from her rosy lips to her nose and eyes, holding her deeply in his sight. Yet, his hand only tightened around her."Is it also true that you're remarrying Evan?" he asked softly.The memory of that night's intimacy flooded Beverly's mind. Unable to meet his eyes, she shook her head. "No."Her breath was filled with the faint inky scent of him.Though his voice was gentle, his entire being radiated an unyielding intensity that held her captive in his embrace. As he held her against him, pinned under his cool, penetrating gaze, Beverly feared the consequences would be unimaginable if she said the wrong thing.Yet, James was clearly being so tender."Where did this rumor come from?" Beverly asked, puzzled. "How have I not heard of it?"James didn't answer, though his mood visibly lightened. Releasing her face, he slid his hands under her arms an

    "If the shoot goes well, we won't need your help with the outdoor charity event, Ms. Sinclair," Wendell continued.Beverly's gaze remained fixed out the window, and she stayed quiet for a long time—so long that Wendell thought she would refuse, but then he heard her say, "Alright."She wanted to discuss something with James. She didn't want Esther to have frequent contact with him, nor did she want him to appear in their lives so often. Thus, she wanted to reclaim full custody of Esther.The more time she spent with James, the more she realized that not only was she growing fonder of him, but Esther was also becoming increasingly attached to him. In fact, he always seemed to know exactly what Esther wanted.…Esther was especially happy that she was going out with James and Beverly. As the car drove along the coast, she sat in James' lap, occasionally moving from his arms to Beverly's.As the two of them took turns holding her, their faces drew closer from time to time. Noticin

    Beverly looked over and saw James' face. For some reason, he seemed even more handsome than he had the day before.As he gently helped her to her feet, she muttered somewhat sheepishly, "I'm not scared of you."Was that some kind of dry humor?James scooped her up into his arms and said softly, “Then why were you walking so fast? You nearly fell, you know.""Chief!" Beverly exclaimed under her breath, noticing that he'd been followed there by a large group of people.The entourage included not just his own staff but also several officials and senior software engineers.She clutched the front of his shirt and urged anxiously, "Put me down."James halted, standing still as he looked down at Beverly. His gaze was so profound that it seemed to see right through her."Your high heel is down there," James said.Only then did Beverly realize she was missing a high heel. She struggled slightly, saying, "I can manage with one foot.""And let them watch as you hobble downstairs while I

    The doctor said, "Since Ms. Sinclair is also here, I'd like to discuss some follow-up details regarding Harold's head injury with both of you. Ms. Bronson, please step out for now."Tabitha glanced at Evan and Beverly. She had no choice but to leave the hospital room. Through the glass window, she watched as Evan's gaze remained fixed on Beverly.She felt a surge of panic. She'd assumed that Beverly wouldn't go back to Evan even if things between her and James were strained. After all, Evan had taken a bullet for Beverly, yet she hadn't so much as frowned. That was proof that she truly hated him.In that moment, Tabitha deeply regretted encouraging Beverly to leave James after drinking last night.She quickly sent a message to James. "James, when are you coming back? If you don't return soon, Beverly really won't want you anymore. She's going to remarry Evan."Tabitha felt this was a real possibility. Anxious and unsure of what to do, she hoped James would come back soon to win Be

    The next moment, Evan's phone exploded. Thick smoke billowed out, as if fueled by furious rage. At the same time, the hidden camera on Harold also malfunctioned.In the building across from them, fire alarms blared.Beverly looked over in horror and saw smoke pouring out of one of the windows. Her building was close enough that they needed to evacuate immediately.Beverly and Maya shielded Esther, while Kathy held Harold's hand.Downstairs, Evan stood out starkly among the evacuated residents from the opposite building.Beverly dragged Harold by the hand toward Evan. It was the first time in three years that Harold had felt Beverly's hand in his. Her touch was very warm, and he instinctively returned the grip.But in the next moment, she pulled her hand away and pushed him toward Evan. Then, she turned and walked away.Evan quickly caught up to her. "Bev, I just got back from my body check-up." He unfolded his medical report. "The doctor said I might suffer from long-term compli

    Beverly was in an exceptionally good mood until she ran into Evan on her way out of the auction house."Bev, my mom and Christina have returned to Alterra, and I need to go for a follow-up appointment. Could you look after Harry for me?" Evan pressed a hand to his chest, over the spot where he'd been shot.Since the shooting at the wedding, no further leads had been uncovered after Sheldon had been released on bail and fled.Evan had been awarded the Medal of Valor for saving James. When he brought it up, Beverly thought of James and found it hard to refuse.But…Right in front of Evan, she took out her phone and called Ashley."You're fired."Evan fixed his deep, dark eyes on Beverly. "Bev, why did you fire Dr. Tate? It seemed to me like she was having a good impact on your treatment.""Why?" Beverly let out a cold laugh. "Evan, you had Ashley deliver the hangover cure last night. You also instructed her to show me that photo album from the charitable foundation."Ashley is a
