Her Precious Baby

Is this how Angeline exacts her revenge? If so, it’s a resounding success! Even though Hanson did not love Joseline,

someone as proud as him could never accept being betrayed or having raised another man’s child for so long.

Hanson then rose from his seat and grabbed his jacket, ready to settle the score with Joseline.

“Bad news, Mr. Yiurk!” Suddenly, Charles Burton of the public relation department barged in. “Golding Group is

signing the contract today for acquiring Project Serenity.”

“What?” The anger Hanson suppressed inside him finally exploded when he heard the news. “What happened to

the promise you made me? How about Mr. Quill of Golding Group?”

Charles shivered so much that he could barely talk properly. “I heard he got kicked out of the shareholders’

meeting last night because the company found out that he was working with us. He kept saying he wanted to settle

the score with you since he couldn’t even get his shares back.”

Sensing the severity of his situation, Hanson propped his hands on the table with a hardened face.

He had the company focused on Project Serenity for more than half a year because he was convinced it would pay

off. However, he never expected that Evander’s drastic action would bring such damage to him.

After all, he was sure nobody knew about his cooperation with Jason Quill. Someone must’ve talked! Could Angeline

be responsible for this too? What exactly is she thinking?

…

On the other side, Angeline took a nap in the car because she was so busy in the past few days that she did not

sleep well. When she opened her eyes, she had already reached Hallsbay.

Angeline then rubbed her sleepy eyes to check her strange surrounding and realized that she was not in the

residential area of her home, so she turned to Sylas at the front and inquired puzzledly, “Where are we?”

“Don’t worry, Ms. Sorelle. This is the Golding residence. Mr. Golding asked me to take you here.”

“What?” Even though Angeline patted her chest, she could not seem to calm herself down. What the heck is

Evander planning? Why does he want me at the Golding residence? I don’t have time for this for I still have some

business to tend to with Nancy!

“Angel!” The soft voice of a young girl cried out suddenly, which was enough for Angeline to know that it was

Floretta calling to her.

Having not seen Floretta for so many days, Angeline missed the girl dearly, so she hurriedly opened the car door

and saw Nancy walking over with Floretta in hand.

“I’ve missed you so much, Angel.” Floretta came running with her arms open and threw herself at Angeline.

“I’ve missed you too. I’m sorry for not attending to you in the past few days,” apologized Angeline as she hugged

Floretta and stroked the girl’s braids.

Nancy shook her head helplessly while looking at the two. “Floretta understands more than you think. Heck, she’s

basically your lucky charm!”

“Mr. Golding asked you to come?” inquired Angeline in a deep voice, surprised to see Nancy.

In response, Nancy shrugged to show that she had no choice. “Yeah. I was baffled too, but he wanted me to

welcome you when you arrived. There’s another guest in the house.”

Having decided to play along since Evander had gone through the trouble for the arrangement, Angeline took

Floretta’s hand along with Nancy and entered the house.

“Come on. Put more lamb in there, Evander. Someone as wealthy as you shouldn’t be stingy!”

Angeline had just reached the door, but she could already hear the complaining of a man coming from inside.

Then, she saw a long table in the living room, and on it was a steaming copper pot surrounded by various meat

slices, vegetables, and other ingredients.

Evander was in casual wear when he lifted his head to look at Angeline while holding a plate of raw lamb.

“You’re here!” exclaimed the man beside Evander before Angeline could say anything.

“You must be Evander’s future wife!”

“No…”

“You’re Angeline, right? I’ve seen your movies. They were great! I’ve already told Evander that you should join

Golding Entertainment.” Wearing a flamboyant pink suit, the man approached Angeline with great enthusiasm as if

he was greeting the president.

He then winked at Angeline and shook her hand without even considering if she wanted to shake his.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Golding. I’m Evander’s childhood friend and the poor guy he sent to Astoria for a

month, Roger Jantz. You have to help me get justice.”

Angeline could not help but get a headache when he looked at Roger, who had not stopped talking from the

moment she entered the house.

She found it hard to believe that someone as taciturn as Evander would have such a talkative friend.

“Let go!” A cold voice suddenly disrupted the harmonious atmosphere.

Evander, who seemed to have appeared beside Roger and Angeline out of nowhere, stared at Roger’s hand holding

Angeline’s so fiercely that his eyes looked as if they were going to shoot laser beams.

After letting go of Angeline, Roger rolled his eyes and uttered jokingly, “You’re as jealous as a cat, and I’m going to

have Mrs. Golding here teach you some manners.”

With that, he turned to Floretta and spoke in an alluring tone. “Come here, Floretta. I have some scrumptious meat

slices for you if you stay with me.”

“Childish!” Nancy insulted Roger indifferently, causing him to give her a displeased look.

“Who do you think you are, witch? How I talk is none of your business!”

“You’re nothing but a pervert,” retorted Nancy while scrutinizing Roger, for she was not one to go down without a

fight. “Talk to us when you learn how to dress like a normal human being. Floretta is only five, so I won’t allow her to

be tainted by the likes of you.”

With that, she snorted at Roger before walking in with Floretta.

Staring at Nancy’s back, Roger got so furious that he wanted nothing more than to curse at the woman then.

With the two’s bickering, the usually solemn atmosphere at the Golding residence suddenly turned lively.

Angeline began to blush since Roger kept calling her Mrs. Golding, so she turned to Evander. “Could you tell Roger

to stop calling me that? Our relationship hasn’t reached that phase yet.”

“Sooner or later, you’ll be mine anyway. I don’t see why I shouldn’t claim my right sooner,” voiced Evander in a

dignified manner as he reached out to pull Angeline into his arm before heading to the dining table.

Evasion did not even cross Angeline’s mind as she nested in Evander’s warm embrace and gazed blankly at the

man who did not think his action was inappropriate in any way.

Just like that, Evander kept Angeline in his arm while he stood before the table and addressed everyone. “Today is a

family gathering, so you can be at ease and make yourselves at home.”

Even though the gathering consisted of only five people, including Francesca, Evander’s words seemed to have

elevated the barbeque dinner to a grand feast.

The way Evander held Angeline in front of everyone obviously showed that he was announcing her as his future

wife.
