Madisyn, however, didn’t spare him a second thought.

Later, as she walked to the parking lot, she spotted Andrew’s familiar luxury car waiting for her.

She opened the door, only to replace someone unexpected inside.

Evie had been ecstatic when she came here and saw the car earlier.

She had exclaimed, “Andrew, you do care about me a lot! I can’t believe you came to pick me up yourself.

I’m so touched!”

“Don’t flatter yourself,” Andrew said flatly, his expression betraying no emotion.

“I’m here to pick up Madisyn.

As he spoke, the car door swung open, revealing Madisyn.

The moment their eyes met, Evie felt a pang of realization-she was the odd one out.

“Alright, I get it.

I’m the third wheel here.

I’ll just leave,” Evie said as she moved to exit the car.

But Madisyn caught her arm.

“Stay.

You’re not busy, right? Why not join us for dinner at my home?”

“Really?” Evie’s eyes brightened.

Andrew’s cold gaze flicked toward her, making her shrink back.

“Actually, Madisyn, maybe I should go.

.

“Come on, let’s all go together,” Madisyn insisted.

“Okay!” Evie quickly agreed, latching onto Madisyn’s side and doing her best to avoid Andrew’s icy stare.

The two girls chatted away happily, completely ignoring Andrew, who remained silent.

The driver, watching the scene unfold, couldn’t help but think that Evie might be in trouble later.

At the Johns family’s residence, Elaine was taken aback to see Madisyn bringing Evie home for dinner.

However, she greeted Evie warmly.

With her usual charm, Evie said, “Mrs.

Johns, you’re absolutely stunning! You look way younger than my mom.

Elaine chuckled, clearly amused.

“Haha, you know how to flatter,” she said, enjoying the compliment.

“I’m just telling the truth! My mom can be a bit fiery, but you’re so gentle.

I’m really jealous of my future sister-in-law,” Evie continued, laying on the flattery.

“Sister-in-law?” Elaine asked, a little confused.

Evie’s eyes widened in realization-she’d said something she shouldn’t have.

Sensing Andrew’s piercing gaze, she quickly corrected herself without daring to meet his eyes.

“I mean, I’m envious of Dane’s future wife.

Dane is Madisyn’s brother, so he’s like a brother to me too.

It must be such a blessing to have a wonderful mother-in-law like you!”
