Chapter 20
“Evelyn, Theodore’s lips trembled, his eyes filled with joy as he hurriedly stepped forward. However, he was stopped by the security guard.”
“Sir, if you wanted to see a doctor, you had to wait in line.”
Theodore was so anxious that his eyes turned red. He struggled and gritted his teeth, growling lowly, “Get out of my way, I’m here to find someone.”
The security guard looked at Theodore with a puzzled expression in his eyes. His expression became more serious. “Even if you are looking for someone, you must follow the rules, otherwise we will have to drag you
out.”
Just then, a handsome man walked out and stood beside Evelyn. The two of them exchanged some words, and the next moment, the man started to scold Evelyn.
Evelyn hung her head sullenly in front of him, looking somewhat aggrieved and pitiful. The man, however, frowned more and more fiercely.

Theodore couldn’t control anything, he punched the security guard hard. Then he rushed up and grabbed the man’s collar, wanting to teach him a lesson. But Marques reacted faster.

Sensing Theodore approaching, Marques prepared himself in advance. He pinned Theodore to the ground and, seeing Evelyn’s not–so–good expression, he probably understood what was happening.

pale instantly, and her hands began to tremble uncontrollably. She never expected to see Theodore again in her life. In that moment, she was filled with all the hatred.
Evelyn’s eyes instantly turned cold.
Theodore lifted his head and met Evelyn’s emotionless, cold eyes. But he had already anticipated this.
Theodore forced a weak, pale smile.
“Evelyn, I finally found you.”
“Don’t be afraid, I just saw very clearly that this man wanted to make trouble for you.
“I helped you get justice.”
Theodore tried to struggle to get up. But he didn’t expect Marques to be so strong. He ended up being pinned to the ground in a very embarrassing position. After struggling for a while without success, Theodore’s face turned red with embarrassment.
Marques sneered, “Troubling Evelyn?”
“She was the most important person to me, I treated her like family, and our argument just now was just a daily squabble.”
“I am not like some people who do not know how to cherish, taking advantage of Evelyn’s good temper and bullying her blindly.”
Theodore’s face turned red with embarrassment, even his ears. But his focus was entirely on Marques, the most important person.
He glared at Marques menacingly, “What is your relationship with her?”

Evelyn walked over expressionless. She shook her head slightly at Marques, then took his hand. Only then did Marques release Theodore.
Theodore staggered to his feet from the ground, watching Evelyn and Marques holding hands, feeling a piercing glare. His eyes were red at the corners, his face pale, showing more confusion and sadness.
Theodore watched Evelyn carefully.
“Evelyn, you…”
“Sir, I’m sorry, I don’t know you.”
“Although my name is Evelyn, perhaps I am not the one you are looking for.”
After saying that, Evelyn glanced at Marques beside her and said, “Marques, let’s go. Don’t waste time on this person.”
Theodore looked at Evelyn’s cold expression and felt a sharp pain in his heart. He chased after her, still stubbornly asking questions.
“How could you not be Evelyn, you are

“I knew all about Samantha’s antics, I was foolish to let her manipulate
me.”
“But Evelyn, we have been married for so many years, weathered many storms together, have you forgotten all that?”
Evelyn suppressed the cold smile that was about to come to her lips. She stopped in her tracks and asked softly.

“Sir, can you provide evidence that we were once married?”

Divorce was something he personally went out of his way to handle. Not to mention, Evelyn later went to close her own account. He can’t even produce evidence now to prove that he and Evelyn had a past together.
Theodore fell completely silent. However, he still followed behind Evelyn, unwilling to give up hope that she would turn around and look at him. But Evelyn was chatting happily with Marques, and had no
intention of turning back.

Theodore followed Evelyn all the way back to her home. Tessa, who was chatting with Madam Whitney, couldn’t stay calm as soon as she saw Theodore.
Her eyes instantly turned cold, ignoring Madam Whitney’s attempts to stop her, she rushed up and slapped Theodore hard several times. Theodore covered his slightly swollen face, not only not angry, but also smiled foolishly.
He looked at Tessa expectantly, his voice trembling, “Aunt, do you
