Chapter 742 Let Go of Him

As Stephen met her gaze, he could see that there was no deceit in her appearance. Marrying her backwould indeed save a lot of trouble.

“Alright.” He confirmed. But then, his tone shifted. “But…” Evie was a little nervous, her hands tightlyclutching the sides of the dress. “But what?”

Stephen looked down at her and asked with a light smile, “Do I look like someone who would cheat inmarriage?” Evie didn’t even think about it and immediately shook her head. No, he didn’t seem like thatat all.

“But our marriage lacks any kind of emotional attachment. Therefore, even if you have someone else inyour heart, it wouldn’t be considered cheating.” Evie told him truthfully what was in her heart.

“You married me for family reasons, and I married you for family reasons. We both have our ownreasons, so…” “So, are you playing tongue twisters with me?”

Stephen looked at her, who wore a serious expression and deliberately interrupted her words, a faintsmile appearing on his handsome face. “I just don’t want you to feel burdened. Don’t miss out on theperson you love just because you married me.” Evie’s tone was extremely sincere. She Towered herhead slightly as she spoke.

“Because I know how painful and regretful it is to lose the person you love.” Stephen frowned slightlywhen he heard Evie’s words.

They were both people who had been hurt by their love. He raised his hand and touched a girl otherthan Zayla for the first time. Stephen placed her chin lightly, causing her to look up.

“Have you completely let go of him from your heart?” he asked. Evie nodded. “He is already mybrother-in-law.” Brother-in-law? It sounded interesting.

There were three daughters in the Olsen Villa, and she was the second eldest. As an illegitimate child,she was naturally the least favored. “As long as you’ve let go.” As for the past between her and that“brother-in-law,” Stephen didn’t want to know.

Just as he did not want to open up his heart to anyone, telling them how much he once loved his sister.Evie looked at him with a little confusion in her eyes. Stephen lowered his head and narrowed thedistance between them.

“You should understand my identity. Every little thing I do could have a big impact.” Evie nodded. “Don’tworry. I won’t trouble you.”

Actually, from the very beginning, Stephen had thought this blind date was a huge trouble. He wasdisgusted by the idea, wanting to go through the motions. But later on, after carefully thinking about it,he understood his mother’s good intentions.

Therefore, Stephen changed his mind and turned the original blind date banquet into a private meetingbetween them.

Why a private meeting? It was so that he could better explain that all he wanted was a marriagepartner. But before he could say anything, Evie’s act of secretly opening the door caught his attention.

When she appeared in front of him, wearing a plain and elegant dress, She was like a glacier lily,delicate and resilient, thriving in the unforgiving high-altitude climate. But Evie always lacked thatconfidence.

When talking to him, her voice was soft, and her head was lowered. It was as if she was always a stepbehind Stephen. Yet, this aspect of her made it difficult for him to feel displeased with her.

Later, after some explanations from her, Stephen understood. The lack of confidence she displayedwas due to the harsh suppression by the Olsen family during her growth. She always kept her headdown, appearing shorter than him, and it was also because of the Olsen family. Why did he choose themost insignificant one out of that stack of photos? One was to better negotiate the marriage, and theother was not to bring any threat to the Vargas Group.

The third reason was his personal one, probably because of his own background. It was preciselybecause he had been through the rain that he wanted to hold an umbrella for someone else.

The atmosphere in the private room grew increasingly cold. Evie pursed her lower lip, wondering if shesaid something wrong just now. But she was already being so careful… “Mr. Vargas?” she called outtentatively.

Stephen came back to his senses, and his voice sounded again. “What do you think constitutescausing trouble?” Evie said without hesitation, “For example, being with another man…”
