Chapter 1099 Rtionship
Evangeline was momentarily dazed before instinctively retracting her hands. “I don''t know how.”
“We''ll start from the most simple one.” Genevieve forced the violin into Evangeline''s arms. Then, she
seated thetter among the ensemble before sitting next to her.
Genevieve received the violin handed to her by one of the violinists and smiled faintly at Evangeline.
“It''s fine. I''ll be here to keep youpany.”
Evangeline has been very fond of ying the violin since she was little. However, after her father
rebuked and humiliated her, she never touched the musical instrument again. At that moment, holding
the violin, she merely felt her hands burning as if she was clutching a piece of hot iron.
After a long while, Evangeline grasped the bow.
Seizing the break period, she tried ying the violin and realized the sense of familiarity with the
instrument was still there. ncing through the scores, she noticed most of the pieces were ssical
music she had listened to countless times.

Soon, the second half of the concert began. Mellifluous ssical music reverberated inside the opera
house as the audience indulged in the magical performance with closed eyes.
After the concert ended, all the guests stood up and pped their hands. Apparently, they were very
satisfied with the performances. Subsequently, the crowd dispersed in twos and threes.
Genevieve said to Evangeline, “Their rounds of apuse are recognition of your musical prowess. You
were excellent during the y.”
Evangeline''s back was drenched with sweat. Nheless, a thrilling look spread across her face as if
she had finally vented all her pent-up grievances after so many years.
Genevievepletely captured Evangeline''s heart after the concert that night. As a result, they
became even more closely acquainted as Evangeline put her guard down around Genevieve.
Part of the reason might also be due to Evangeline''s perception that Lostaria was the Sheratons''
territory, so Genevieve wouldn''t dare to do anything to harm her.
That day, when they rested at a dessert shop after they were done shopping, Genevieve grasped the
period when Evangeline went to the restroom to imnt an eavesdropping software given to her by
Frank into Evangeline''s phone.
When Evangeline returned from the restroom, the waiter brought a box over.
Genevieve nced at the content when the waiter opened the box. She recognized those to be
chocte truffles, a type of confectionery well known as the freshest chocte in the world with an
expiry period of twenty-four hours.
The box served by the waiter was rose-vored chocte truffles. Genevieve caught whiffs of the
mixed scent of rose and chocte in the air.
Although the waiter didn''t say a word, Evangeline seemed to have known who the sender was because
her facial expression darkened instantaneously as she uttered coldly, “Take it away!”
“Ms. Evie...” The waiter stood rooted in his spot, looking particrly troubled.
Genevieve was afraid Evangeline would lose her temper, so she took one of the chocte truffles from
the box. “Don''t let him take this away. I am quite fond of chocte truffles. However, the expiry date for
this type of chocte is too short, so it''s rtively hard toe across this delicacy,” she said while
cing the piece of chocte truffle in her mouth.
Sensing Genevieve''s liking for the confectionery, Evangeline didn''t make things difficult for the waiter
afterward.
Thebined taste and smell of the chocte and rose were gratifying. Genevieve couldn''t help but
take another piece of the chocte truffle from the box. “Aren''t you trying one of these? Otherwise, I''ll
finish the entire box soon.”
“Finish the whole box if you like the chocte.” Evangeline lifted her cup of coffee and took a sip, her
countenance hidden behind the drink.
After returning to the hotel, Genevieveunched the eavesdropping software on her phone. She was
now informed of the things Evangeline told her housekeeper and who thetter contacted.
The subsequent few days, Genevieve didn''t meet up with Evangeline, but she continuously tapped into
thetter''s phone.
Evangeline called Zephyr once to invite him to have a meal together, but he rejected her by saying that
he was busy with work.
Besides that, Genevieve even listened in on another matter.
When Frank went to the hotel to meet with her, Genevieve asked in surprise, “Did you know about
Evangeline and Alston''s rtionship?”
“I do,” Frank replied indifferently.
Only then did Genevieve realize Evangeline yearned to marry Zephyr partially because of her family.
The other contributing factor was her reluctance to continue being involved with Alston, as she
despised their rtionship.
Genevieve uttered in perplexity, “It is amon thing for a man to marry their sister-inw. As
someone from a mafia family, why does morality tie down Evangeline?”
Before Frank provided her with an answer, Genevieve had already gained rity.
“I have a way to acquire information about the core members of the Sheraton family now.” Although
Genevieve treated Evangeline as her friend, she didn''t forget her task.
She questioned Frank again, “Is there any update on Zephyr?”
Since Zephyr left her the card that night, he didn''t contact Genevieve anymore, causing her to feel
more afraid, fearing he might do something terrible to Johanna.
