Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1097 It's a Deal

Desire filled Evelyn's eyes as she looked at the jar the man held. The man's words were tempting, and she couldn't help but walk closer to him and reached for the jar.

However, before she could get her hands on the bug, the man hid it away. "What's the rush, Miss Wrenn? Why don't we make a deal?" the man said slowly with a triumphant smile. He knew that Evelyn would definitely accept his proposal. After all, Evelyn would only benefit from this deal.

"As long as the bug can fulfill my wish, I can give you anything you want," replied Evelyn as she stared at the jar.

"I only have a simple request, which is also beneficial to you... After you have completed your end of the bargain, I want you to get me Nicole," the man said.

As expected, Evelyn was excited when she heard his request. "No problem. I want her to disappear from my life so badly."

As Evelyn thought about Nicole, her eyes were filled with jealousy, and she emitted an intimidating aura.

The man smiled in satisfaction before handing Evelyn the jar and a parchment paper. "This paper contains the precautions for raising a love bug. If you need me, I will contact you myself. Well then, I hope we can get along well." As the man spoke, he reached out his hand with a thoughtful smile.

Without hesitation, Evelyn took the jar and shook the man's hand. "Me too."

After Evelyn went back to Gould Residence, the first thing she did was lock herself in her room. Then, she slit her palm open and watched her blood flow into the jar. As the bug drank her blood greedily, Evelyn had a crazed look. She could already imagine Colton confessing his love to her and wanting to marry her.

"Colton... Oh, Colton... Soon, you will be mine..." she mumbled. She seemed to be in a trance, not even feeling the pain from the wound on her palm.

After some time, the bug was full. Since Evelyn had lost a lot of blood, she felt dizzy and her vision was blurry. However, when she saw that the bug looked better after feeding off her blood, she felt that it was worth it.

In the meantime, Rita and Siobhan had returned from the wedding. Their arrival snapped Evelyn out of it and she quickly kept the jar away. No one could find out about this!

As she kept everything away, she heard Siobhan's voice from downstairs. "Is Evelyn back yet?" she asked the butler. Her voice was cold, and it was obvious that she was still angry.

"Miss Wrenn is already back and is now in her room. Do you want to go and check on her?" the butler said courteously.

"No. Before this matter ends, she will think about what she has done," Siobhan said firmly. She realized she had covered up for Evelyn so much that the latter had done something unforgivable.

On the other hand, when Evelyn heard her words, she felt her world crumbling. Mom is furious. She will never be on my side like she used to be. If I don't do anything to make up for this matter, she will never treat me as her daughter ever again!

Just as Evelyn panicked, she saw her reflection in the mirror. Since she had lost too much blood, her face was as pale as a ghost.
