Evelyn Todd 소설 & 이야기

It wasn't romance. Not yet. It was something far more important. Trust. That evening, a black sedan arrived outside the Grand Geneva Hotel. The driver stepped out and opened the rear door. "Good evening, Mr. Laurent." A second car pulled up only moments later. Evelyn stepped onto the hotel entrance in a navy evening dress beneath a light cream coat. She stopped when she noticed Adrian waiting nearby. "Good evening." He smiled politely. "Good evening." There was no awkwardness this time.

And there she was. Evelyn stood framed in the glass, a silhouette against the cool interior darkness. She was on the phone, one hand gesturing languidly. She was forty-five, but the word that slammed into Brody’s mind, as it always did, was sumptuous. She was wearing a simple cream-colored sundress, but it clung to every one of her lush curves: the full, heavy swell of her breasts, the dip of her waist, the generous flare of her hips. The fabric was thin enough that he could see the shadow of her nipples, pert and dark, and the vague outline of her panties beneath. Her auburn hair was piled in a messy, elegant knot, tendrils escaping to caress the long, elegant column of her neck.

Why can’t he pay them to cure Mom? I learned to read novels to Mom back then until she fell asleep. She loves Thomas Hardy, just like Dad. I distanced myself from everything that would remind me of her suffering. This annoying confinement that smelled of alcohol. They tried to hide the irking scent with artificial fragrance from bleach and soap, but it did nothing to my senses. Even from Hardy’s books, I kept a respectful distance because every word, every hard cover, reminds me of her. “Can you direct me where Evan Carter is?” I breathed out at the receptionist. She has a landline trapped on her shoulders and right cheeks. Fingers keep punching on the keyboard.

Amber shouted but Evelyn already zoomed off. Evelyn Browns is a high ranking model and she was well known in her country, America and internationally. She is not famous because she is the only daughter of the Brown family, the second richest family in America but because of her cheerful and gentle nature. "I just wish his betrothed is handsome and popular gosh!..I can't wait to snap with him and post it on my social media handles" She shouted but covered her mouth quickly. "She said not to tell anyone!" She mutters, biting her lower lips.

Zenda Harries leaned back in his chair and smiled at the ping from his inbox. “She said yes,” he murmured to himself, almost amused by his own relief. It wasn’t just about the event. It wasn’t even about her presence boosting the symposium’s profile. It was her. ************************************************* The venue was already buzzing when Evelyn arrived that morning, her Lumina badge pinned neatly to the lapel of her deep emerald blazer. Her stride was confident, but her chest hummed with anticipation. Zenda was already there, speaking with two delegates from Johns Hopkins. But when he saw her, he paused the conversation and stepped toward her with a warmth that was impossible to miss

They said they didn’t take anything or put it on top so it was impossible for them. I opened it and a lot of paper came out to me again. I immediately remembered the necklace with the M pendant. I hid it in my bag and I wasn’t wearing it anymore because I forgot so I took it immediately. I looked again. I shook it and put it around my neck. I started looking at the papers. Maybe my Mom or Dad has a letter here. Or maybe there are important documents here. ‘Certificate of Deposit’? I frowned at what I had read. Depositors name: Mary Madison Evans.

She said that with a judging tone. Wasn’t she just toxic? Jackson sighed, “Yes, I’d be back”. What more could he say? He scrutinized Timothy one last time, “Don’t start with your tales of telling them to leave”. “I’d leave if I don’t find you back by tomorrow” Evelyn stated, “I don’t need anyone’s idea. I know what’s best for me and my family”. She went back into her cavern. “Evelyn is pretty haughty, isn’t she? She ran off her first wedding. And insulted the future mother in law of Lydia. She’s that way” Timothy huffed.
