Chapter 641
The silence was suffocating.
Then Lucas spoke, voice rough. "Since when?"
They turned. His eyes were bloodshot.
Natalie smiled, detached. "Recently. We’ve known each other forever. Feelings just... happened."
Lucas’s knuckles whitened. Veins bulged along his forearms.
Evelyn jumped in. "Congrats! Should’ve told me sooner."
Natalie’s gaze flicked to Adrian. "That’s why I brought him."
Evelyn forced a grin. Poor Lucas.
She ushered Natalie and Adrian out, then turned.
Lucas looked wrecked.
"Forget her," Evelyn said.
His jaw clenched. "No. We’re breaking them up."
Evelyn groaned. "Men only want what they can’t have."
"I’m not helping."
Lucas pulled out his wallet. "Take every card."
Evelyn hesitated. Then she snatched the black Amex. "Not for the money. For your happiness."
Lucas’s lips twitched. "Thanks, sis."
Evelyn pocketed the card. Cha-ching.
Now, how to sabotage a happy couple?
