Chapter 780


    Chapter 779 Evelyn’s face was still pale from the earlier fright, but she maintained herposure and rationality as she looked


    directly at Eugene. She said, “If that’s the case, then I''ll give you both my blessings.” After saying that, she let go of Ste’s hand.


    There was a faintly lonely smile on her face. “Madam Ste, I''ll head back first. | think it was an earthquake just now. Please take


    care.” Everything happened so suddenly and swiftly that Ste did not even have the time to react before Evelyn left. while,


    Mnie lowered her gaze to Eugene’s hand around her waist. Pursing her lips slightly, she pushed him away. Eugene’s


    expression turned somewhat grim. His already dark and deep eyes seemed like an abyss that could swallow her whole. As


    Evelyn walked away, her smile faded, reced by a cold indifference. Having grown up in Prime City, such minor earthquakes


    did not scare her. She had seen everything clearly when the squirrel lunged at Mnie-Eugene’s emotions, his swift actions,


    and his instinctive gesture to protect Mnie’s stomach. Evelyn studied psychology. Combined with the information she had


    gathered from her friend, she a child that was not allowed to be was almost certain that Mnie’s child belonged to Eugene. It


    was thered from her friend, she born. Families like theirs could indulge in all sorts of affairs, but they could not afford to be


    careless with a child. However, it was up to the Scott family how they were going to deal with the situation. With this thought in


    mind, Evelyn felt a sense of relief. She took out her phone and sent a message to Peyton. Since an earthquake had urred,


    they could not stay here any longer and could only return to the inn using the way they came from. Fortunately, the earthquake


    was not a particrly strong one. 1 However, for people like Mnie, who rarely experienced earthquakes, it was quite


    frightening. It was a sudden earthquake, so there were concerns about aftershocks. Due to this, no one dared to descend the


    mountain rashly. They could only temporarily stay at the inn and return to Jepton the next day. Reny sat beside Mnie and


    suddenly remembered something. She looked at Mnie’s belly, asking, “Does your stomach feel alright? You were startled just


    now. My mom said pregnant women can’t get shocked.” it was Mnie shook her head. She felt fine overall. If there was a


    moment when she was truly scared, only when the squirrel suddenly lunged at her during the earthquake. Eugene had shielded


    her then. Thinking of Eugene, Mnie pursed her lips slightly. She lowered her gaze as she tried not to dwell Chapter 720 on it


    too much. 212 Dimer was served as usual in the lobby. Xander came to call Mnie for dinner. Mnie was resting In her room


    after returning from the hot springs when Xander arrived. She had just woken up. The moment she stepped out of her room, she


    bumped into Ste, who was dragging a suitcase along while talking to Evelyn beside her. Although Evelyn remained polite, her


    attitude seemed colder than before. When she saw Mnie, she even smiled at her. However, Mnie did not feel much from


    Evelyn''s sunile. On the contrary, she even frowned slightly. Perhaps it was because of the hint of disdain in Evelyn’s expression


    despite her smile. It was not until Evelyn walked out of the inn and saw Eugene and Cedric waiting outside that she spoke up,


    “Mr. Cedric, Madam Ste, Eugene, | haven’t seen my friends for a long time. They''ll being to pick me up shortly, so | won''t


    be going back with you.” Before leaving, she gave Eugene a meaningful nce and added after a bit of hesitation, “Eugene,


    goodbye.”
