Chapter 291

Penulis: Happy Breadwinner
But how could Evan possibly be afraid of James?

"So what if this is your home? Esther is my daughter, so it's not like you can keep her here against her will. Bev, if James truly loves you, he wouldn't let his family treat you so harshly."

Evan crouched down in front of Beverly, hoping she would at least look at him. "I know you don't have any real feelings for each other. You're only with me because you resent me and want to hurt me.

"I know I was wrong, Bev. Please come back with me, and we'll live a good life together as a family of four."

Evan pleaded humbly in front of everyone. He didn't care about his dignity anymore—all he wanted was Beverly.

Carly's eyes stung with jealousy, but she caught the key point. "What do you mean no real feelings? Are you saying these two are a fake couple?"

Wanda's head spun, and she nearly collapsed. But luckily, Harvey caught her just in time.

"James, what exactly is going on between you and Bev? I sensed something was off when you first got

    When Beverly woke up, she found herself in the bedroom on the third floor. James was no longer by her side.She rubbed her throbbing temples, remembering the warmth of James' breath as he whispered in her ear before he left early that morning."Honey, take the children to the Hanson estate first. I'll join you later."Beverly touched her ear, which James had kissed, feeling as if the warmth of his lips still lingered on her earlobe.The first thing she did after getting up was call Damien. But the phone rang for a long time without anyone answering.Beverly was puzzled. After all, Damien had always cared deeply about Timothy, so there was no way he would go an entire night without checking in.She felt a prickle of apprehension.After washing up and changing, she went downstairs.Esther, Harold, and Timothy were playing in the living room. They'd been dressed up beautifully by Maya and Kathy.Esther was wearing a Princess Maryanne dress, with two small braids and a tiny crown

    "What are you doing here?" James asked."Waiting for you to come back from your date," Kyle replied. Meeting James' indifferent gaze, he scoffed coldly. "What? You have the guts to do it but not to admit it?"Evan's people were following James, while Kyle's people were following Evan. So Kyle knew everything Evan knew as well. "No wonder you didn't react when I told you Beverly was with that bastard Evan," Kyle continued, anger flickering behind his glasses. "Beverly is Cipher—the top-tier hacker who can control missile processes."From the very beginning, you've only kept her by your side because of her abilities, haven't you? That's why you allowed Evan to do as he pleased and to take Beverly away again and again. You never truly cared about her. James, I thought you'd at least be better than Evan."Rubbing his brows in exhaustion, James said in a calm, detached tone, "See Mr. Dawson out."Ramon, standing by the door, moved toward Kyle.Kyle's anger flared at James' nonchalan

    Kyle's sudden appearance and his move to knock Evan down startled the crowd around them.Beverly immediately stepped forward and took Esther into her arms.After rushing over, the patrolling officers stopped Kyle from continuing and helped Evan back to his feet.Evan was already worn out from a sleepless night. Now, he looked even more haggard."Dealing with Henderson Group is my sister and my matter. It has nothing to do with you," Kyle said icily. "Don't even think about using any excuse to get close to Bev. Get lost!"As Evan listened to Kyle, his gaze remained fixed on Beverly. When he saw that she remained silent, his expression darkened."Your sister?" he sneered. "What makes you think you're fit to be Bev's brother?"Behind his glasses, Kyle's eyes grew sharp and cold, his anger simmering.Beverly stepped between them, facing Evan. "My affairs have nothing to do with you. I'll handle Henderson Group myself."Just then, Maya and the others, who'd been separated by the cr

    Beverly's ear grew warm as she glared at James angrily. "It's getting late—I need to pick up the children."James released her, a faint smile touching his lips as he noticed her flushed cheeks. "I'll arrange a driver to go with you."As much as Beverly didn't want that, her legs felt so weak that all she could do was nod.…Meanwhile, Evan had been sitting in his office at Skyscape Tech all night.Lucas pushed the door open and entered. "Mr. Gray, we can't find Ms. Marwood anywhere, even after searching every possible location. Not only that, but there are also many unfamiliar figures lurking around the company."It's likely that she'd collaborated with the police again," he said with growing concern. "I'm afraid it won't be easy to find her this time.""Keep an eye on James and those around him. He must be behind this. He's won over Esther and now has his sights set on Harry," Evan said icily, his dark eyes burning with fury. "Only he would have the means to protect Sally and t

    Gwen had accidentally broken the heel of her high heel that day, and James had reached out to steady her. The warmth of his palm against her skin had lingered on her mind ever since.Gwen had originally been quite confident, and after meeting the seemingly harmless Beverly last night, she'd become even more so. Yet, now…"I stayed up all night reading the literature you provided and also contacted both experts," Gwen said. "I think we should discuss things with them further before making a decision."I know you're busy, but both the experts and I hope you can be present during the discussion. So, are you free this evening?"James glanced at Nolan, who checked the schedule and replied, "We can free up an hour.""Alright, I'll be there tonight," James said, picking up a glass of water and placing it in front of Gwen. His expression carried the appreciation of a superior for a subordinate. "Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Parker.""I'm just doing my job," Gwen replied lightly, but

    There were only eight days left until James officially assumed his position, and after that, Beverly would leave him.When she'd been with Evan, she'd never faced issues like this. After all, his bodyguards would always stop any woman who tried to approach him. Yet in the end, it was Evan who dealt her that devastating blow.Lost in thought, Beverly felt James' hand tighten around her waist.He held her slender waist with one hand while cupping her face with the other. Her face was so small that it barely filled his palm.Slowly, he brushed the tip of his nose against hers. "You've made progress again, haven't you?" he whispered, his warm breath teasing against her skin.Beverly pressed her lips together, feeling that if she opened her mouth, she would end up kissing James. Her cheeks grew hot from the heat of his embrace as she looked at him evasively."You didn't run away even when you were angry," James remarked quietly.Beverly could sense the temperature around them risin
