RedNovelRegret 235 Chapter 235 Gentry lunged forward, ready to throw a punch, but Evander blocked Charlotte with one arm and swung his free fist squarely at Gentry.
Gentry staggered backward and crashed to the floor. He wiped the back of his hand across his nose and saw blood.
"Dr. Moore!" Charlotte broke free from the man behind her and rushed to help, but Evander caught her by the wrist. She spun around and slapped him hard across the face. "Evander, that's enough!" Evander's head turned slightly from the blow, but he simply stared at her, his expression unreadable.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCharlotte hurried over to Gentry and helped him to his feet. "Are you alright?" "I'm fine, don't worry." Gentry dabbed away the blood, then shot a glare at Evander. "Men who only know how to control women are the lowest of the low." Evander's brow darkened. "Whatever's going on between us is none of your business." "I think you're the one who doesn't belong here," Gentry retorted. "You show up in a fancy suit with your perfect manners, but for all we know, you're just screep who gets off on harassing women." Evander adjusted his cufflinks and, oddly enough, let out a short laugh. This was the first tanyone had ever described him like that.
Just then Natalie arrived with a couple of security guards. “Mr. Howard." She glanced at Charlotte and Gentry, then gave Charlotte a respectful nod. "Ma'am." Gentry hesitated, startled by the address. Natalie's "Ma'am" clearly surprised him as well. He turned to Charlotte. "He's your...?” "Ex-husband," Charlotte answered coolly.
Gentry's eyes widened in understanding.
"Ex-husband?" Evander's voice was hoarse, his eyes burning as he stared at her. "I never agreed to the divorce." "Our marriage has only existed on paper for a long tnow. What's the point in dragging this out?" Charlotte took a steadying breath and met his gaze. "Evander, 1/3 12.46 # Chapter 235 marrying you was the biggest mistake of my life." Before he could say another word, she took Gentry's arm, ready to leave.
Evander called after her, "Charlotte." She stopped but didn't turn around.
"I know everything now." Charlotte's eyelids fluttered. What exactly did he mean by "everything"? Was he talking about what Tricia had done? She turned back to face him, a bitter smile tugging at her lips. "You only start doubting Tricia now? You only just learned the truth? Don't you think it's a little late?" His jaw clenched.
"I told you before, and you insisted it couldn't possibly be her." She recited his words right back to him, each one landing like a knife. "You only ever trusted your own judgment. But when my family was destroyed, that's when you finally said you'd learned the truth. But it was already too late!" "Charlotte..." He choked on her nand took a step toward her.
She immediately stepped back. "Don't cany closer, Evander. Please, I'm begging you-just letgo!" Pulling Gentry along, Charlotte walked away.
Evander stood rooted to the spot, watching her go, his eyes dark and empty.
Charlotte had no idea how far she'd walked, or how long she'd been clinging to Gentry's arm
"Charlotte, it's alright. They didn't follow us," Gentry finally said, om breaking the silence. She snapped NQ out of her daze and quickly let go of his arm. "Sorry-1 dragged you into this."
"Oh, con, don't say that. At worst, I was just sticking my nose where it didn't belong probably deserved that pun 'punch anyway" Gentry rubbed his nose, then added, "But honestly, I can't help myself. If I see something wrong, I have to step in." 2/3 12:46 Chapter 235 Before Charlotte could reply, he asked, “But seriously, he's really your...?" Charlotte nodded.
"So you got married that young, huh? What a shame-' A shthat his clean-freak friend never stood a chance?
"Yeah, it is a shame." Charlotte managed a rueful smile. "But no such thing asa se out there's chance in life. Still, at least I figured things out before it was too late." İ Chapter 236
