StartNovelChapter 354:
Kristopher’s brows furrowed subconsciously.
Why had she shown no reaction to the news of his potential marriage to another woman?
Was she pretending to be indifferent?
Or did she truly not care?
This thought unexpectedly sparked a flicker of annoyance within him. He adjusted his tie, his emotions
conflicted. “Cathy and | haven't started considering marriage yet.”
Evelyn's smile momentarily faltered.

marriage so soon would certainly stir rumors about you and Cathy.”
After speaking, she poured Kristopher another cup of tea and smoothly changed the subject. “Recently, my
brother mentioned his interest in the land south of the city. He's thinking of developing a villa community, similar
to this one.”
Her smile grew eager as she handed the freshly filled cup to Kristopher. “I’ve heard from my husband that you're

She paused, striving for a gentler tone. “If you could grantthis favor now, | would have no objections to your
future engagement or marriage to Cathy...”
Kristopher’s brows furrowed. “Mrs. Miller, excuse me?”
Before he could finish, Belinda rose from her seat and faced Evelyn. “You're discussing Mr. Cox and Miss Miller's
marriage and your business affairs. Is it appropriate to involve me, an outsider, in these matters?”
Belinda’s interruption suddenly made Evelyn aware of her presence in the tea room.
Her face soured instantly. “Miss Nelson, you could have excused yourself.”
“It wasn’t my choice to chere for tea,” Belinda retorted sharply.
She scoffed and turned her attention
