Ryan?
The name flashed in Evelyn's mind. What could he want here?
"Madam, would you like to see him? If not, I can decline on your behalf," the maid said, noticing
Evelyn's uneasy expression.
Evelyn shook her head, her tone composed as she replied, "It's alright. Have him wait for a moment. I'll
be there shortly to welcome him."
With a nod, the maid left to relay the message. Since Evelyn was hosting a guest, she needed to
prepare tea and refreshments.
Taking a deep breath, Evelyn wondered what Ryan wanted with her. In any case, she had to meet him.
As Evelyn stood up, she realized the mess she had just made on the floor. She rubbed her temples,
acknowledging her increasingly uncontrollable temper. Not delving deeper into her thoughts, she tidied
herself up, applied a light touch of makeup to her face, and ensured she looked presentable.
Once ready, Evelyn left her room.
The other maid, who had been crying earlier, seemed to have been comforted by her companion.
Walking beside Evelyn, she marveled at how Evelyn's appearance had transformed dramatically in just
twenty short minutes. She silently admired the difficulty of being a lady in high society—these ladies
had to quickly compose themselves so as not to embarrass their husbands.
However, the guest wasn't Colton's close friend.
Evelyn's expression shifted when she noticed Ryan in the living room. She gave a brief glance to the
maid by her side, signaling her to leave. All the maids obediently left the room.
Then, she approached Ryan.
"Mr. Yael, what brings you here today?" Evelyn asked politely as she sat across from Ryan, a faint
smile on her lips.
"I have a proposition. It's a partnership. I wonder if you’ll be interested, Miss Wrenn?"
Ryan's gaze lingered on Evelyn as he grinned. He could see that she was trying to maintain a pleasant
appearance, but no makeup could fully hide her exhaustion after days of distress.
"What do you mean?" Evelyn furrowed her brows. She hadn't expected Ryan to be so direct about his
intentions; she thought he would try to dance around the topic a bit.
This was not what she had anticipated.
"If the information I've received is accurate, then Miss Wrenn, you're unaware of Colton's current
activities abroad, isn't that right? You don't even know when he's coming back."
Ryan nodded to himself as if he hadn't heard Evelyn's question.
He believed that Evelyn had already figured out why he had come here. Just now, she was only putting
on an act. After all, she had never shown any preference toward him over Colton in her choices.
However, he didn't really expect Evelyn to favor him. He just hoped that she would do things that could
satisfy him, and everything else didn't matter.
Evelyn lowered her head and remained silent. Although she appeared calm on the surface, Ryan
detected a hint of panic that flashed through her eyes.
"Alright, Miss Wrenn, there's no need for you to play coy with me. Although Colton is indeed in Florend
to find Nicole, it's actually just a ploy. He's trying to attack me," Ryan explained with a smile, still
patiently choosing his words. He knew that he needed to approach this situation delicately—acting too
quickly would likely backfire.
"He's not really looking for Nicole?" Evelyn looked surprised. She had assumed Colton's trip was all
about finding Nicole. But now, she realized it was a means to shift Ryan's focus, setting up an
opportunity to strike at Ryan.
"Why are you telling me this? It doesn't seem to benefit you in any way. After all, you're here to propose
a partnership with me. Yet, you're revealing your cards, so what's the point of me partnering with
someone who has lost their leverage?"
Evelyn's voice carried a cold, mocking tone. Since that was the case, she had no need to mince her
words.
