Chapter 90 Are You Avoiding Me?
I could see how much Evie loved Gabriel before, but Gabriel, that scumbag, did such an unforgivable
thing! He didn''t only cheat on Evie, he even brought the homewrecker with him when he broke up with
Evie. How could there be such a scumbag in this world?
"He has gone too far. Gabriel is an asshole. How could he treat you like this?"
My hands were clenched into fists, and my heart was full of anger. At this moment, I wanted to find
Gabriel and get even with him.
"Hollie, I''m sorry, I''m really sorry. I really shouldn''t have quarrelled with you for Gabriel. I know you did it
for my own good at that time. You didn''t want me to get bullied by this scumbag. I''m sorry I didn''t
believe you."
Evie''s tears flowed even more fiercely. She kept wiping her tears with a tissue and kept apologizing to
me. The way she was acting now made me feel worse than when I had ended my rtionship before.
"Evie, it''s alright, you don''t need to apologize to me. I know you loved Gabriel at the time, so you
couldn''t listen to reason. I don''t me you."
Even though she had made me sad at the time, I had never med her. If I were in her shoes, I would
have probably done the same thing.
"Hollie, you really don''t me me? I threatened to end our friendship for Gabriel."
Evie looked at me uneasily and asked again. I could see the guilt in her eyes.
"We''ve been friends for so many years. Don''t you know my character? If I really me you, I won''t
The uneasy expression on her face made me feel a little ufortable. I knew that she must feel very
sorry towards me now.
I was angry at the time, otherwise, I wouldn''t have left her house. But so much time had passed since
then. I had calmed down a lot. Evie was still my best friend. How could I continue to be angry with her?
"Thank you. I''m relieved. Thank you very much. Thank you foring tofort me at this time."
Evie hugged me tightly again, choking with sobs.
"Don''t go and be polite with me now. I know you''re really sad. If you need to cry, just cry. It will make
you feel better."
I patted her back gently and keptforting her.
I had also been betrayed before. I knew that kind of heartbreaking pain. I once lost the will to live. I
knew that Evie felt the same as me at the moment.
"Hollie, I really love him, but why did he treat me like this? Why? I even gave him my virginity. Why
didn''t he cherish me? Why did he hurt me like this?"
With tears streaming down her face, she asked many questions, but I couldn''t answer a single word.
Evie was a good girl. She had given her all to this rtionship, but the person who paid the price was
the one who was most likely to get hurt.
"Evie, forget him. He is not worthy of your love. Just pretend that you''ve been bitten by a dog."
I felt I was insulting dogs when Ipared Gabriel to a dog. Even dogs were loyal. He wasn''t. He was
a total scumbag.
"But I really like him. I really want to be with him. Hollie. Tell me, what should I do?"
Evie could note to terms with the fact that Gabriel had dumped her for another woman. This was
her first love. She had given everything she had to this rtionship, but this was how it ended. Most
people wouldn''t have been able to ept this.
"Evie, can you calm down? Gabriel, that scumbag, is not worthy of your love!"
Seeing that Evie couldn''t stop her tears, I remembered that it was all caused by that scumbag Gabriel. I
had the impulse to stab him with a knife right now.
After hearing what I said, her crying grew louder and louder.
I could only hold her tightly in my arms now. I couldn''t do anything. No matter what I say or how I
We spend the whole night in each other''s arms. She cried the entire night and only fell asleep at dawn.
Iid her down on the sofa and took out a quilt from the bedroom to cover her. I saw the tear stains on
her face.
I sighed and felt a little worried. I didn''t know if Evie would be able to get out of this sorrow. When I saw
how sad she was, I regretted not letting her know about Gabriel''s true colours earlier.
I took out my phone and looked at the time. It was almost time for work. But with Evie''s current state, I
was a little worried about leaving her alone here, so I called my supervisor to ask for leave.
I sat beside her and wiped away the tears on her face. Then I went out to buy breakfast.
Even though I wasn''t the one who got dumped, I was still unhappy seeing my best friend in such a
state.
Walking alone on the road, I was extremely depressed, and the impulse to get even with Gabriel grew
stronger.
The phone suddenly rang. I frowned. When I saw that it was Brandon, I frowned. I didn''t know why he
was calling me at this time.
"Hello, Mr Sutton."
It was working hours now, so when I picked up the phone, I addressed him politely as Mr Sutton.
Hearing my voice, the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then Brandon''s cold voice
came, "Why didn''t youe to work today? Hollie, are you deliberately avoiding me?"
Brandon''s tone was filled with displeasure and doubt.
"Mr Sutton, you think too much. Even if I don''t want to see you, I won''t risk a pay cut. I have something

to do today, so I can''te to work. I just spoke with my supervisor, so I don''t think I need to report to
you."
Brandon''s words made me speechless. When had I ever deliberately avoided him?
I would work overtime every day for the overtime pay if I could. Why would I skip work just to avoid
him? He had a really active imagination.
And he was so narcissistic. Did he really think everything I did was because of him?
"Why can''t youe to work? What''s the reason?"
Brandon continued to ask as if he would not give up until I gave him a reason.
"Why should I tell you the reason? I already applied for leave."
I was already in a bad mood, but now I was forcibly questioned by Brandon. It just made me more
irritated. Who did he think he was? Why should I tell him why I was taking leave?
"Hollie, I''m your boss. Don''t you need to give me a reason for asking for leave?"
Brandon''s voice came again. At this moment, there was impatience in his voice.
