    Chapter 830 Lucky Him


    Jenny was spotted by Evan the moment she walked into the restaurant. He waved her over. “Here, sit.


    Food’s almost ready.” “Sorry for making you wait.” Jenny went to sit opposite Evan across the table.


    Evan waved her off but didn’t ask her how she got there. He’d seen Alec drop her off from the


    restaurant windows.


    Evan respected Alec for being generous enough to drive Jenny over for their dinner, knowing it was


    with his love rival. He wouldn’t have been kind enough to do that himself.


    The food was soon served, most of it Jenny’s favorite. “Eat up while it’s hot. II


    “Don’t mind if I do.” Jenny had been starving since the afternoon, so she quickly helped herself to


    dinner.


    “This is really good, Evan. Where’d you find this ce?”


    “I drove by a couple of times and saw they had a lot of customers, so I figured they must be doing


    something right. I wanted you to try it out, so here we are,” Evan happily answered, passing some


    mashed yams to Jenny.


    “Wow,” Jenny thought. “I wouldn’t have been able to find a ce with such good cooking just by driving


    through Bardoff City.”


    “What’d the police say?” Evan asked. “ss is going to get the noose, right?

    Jenny shook her head. “Turns out the guests killed by the bomb are still alive, just heavily injured. My


    guess is he’ll just get a life sentence.” Of course, the details remained in the court’s jurisdiction.


    Something dark red in Evan’s eyes when he heard “life sentence,” but it quickly


    vanished. “Lucky him.”


    “Yeah. Thewyers his family hired are trying to argue that he never intended to kill anyone, given how


    weak the bombs he nted are.”


    “He mustn’t have known shit to have bought such low-quality weapons,” Jenny thought to herself,


    amused.


    Evan smiled. “We’ll leave it up to the coppers then.”


    “Yeah. There’s nothing else I can do now.” Nothing illegal, anyway.


    Their conversation continued merrily throughout dinner. Afterward, when Jenny thought she could


    finally go home, Evan pulled out two tickets from his pocket.


    “I got some tickets for a concert nearby. Wanna join me? It could help our digestion,” he asked, all


    smiles.


    Jenny giggled. “Only you would think of something like that.”


    “So, are youing?” Evan grinned, eyes full of adoration for Jenny.


    The woman eyed the tickets and nodded. “Sure. We’ll see how well music helps with my metabolism.”


    “Let’s walk over then. It’s not far.” Evan went up to Jenny holding her hand.


    The warm feeling in and around her palm made her stiffen. She gently pulled her hand away even as


    she nodded at what he’d said.


    Their atmosphere suddenly grew awkward, with Jenny instantly regretting agreeing to the concert after


    dinner. She should’ve gone straight home.


    Evan, meanwhile, was unbothered. His smile remained as he quietly walked to the concert with Jenny


    beside him.
