Husband With Benefits
Chapter 246: You!!!

Chapter 246: You!!!

"You missed her?" Slowly she advanced towards him with deliberate steps unclear on her intention but very clear how she wanted to beat this man to a pulp! How dare he lead her on and almost sleep with her only to turn up as her brother-in-law?

Nora shot an intrigued glance at Evangeline, sensing the tension in the air. Lucien, realizing the peril he was in, quickly retreated, both hands raised in surrender, wearing a deer-in-the-headlights expression as he said, " Angel, I can explain."

Demetri looked on from his brother to the young princess and understood the matter in a glance. Gently, he tugged at Nora’s t-shirt and handed her a phone with the camera on as he whispered," Now we know why they chose him."

As Nora’s eyes met Demetri’s, she suppressed a giggle and quickly started to shoot the dramatic scene happening before her with Lucien stepping backwards and Evangeline advancing slowly. These brothers were as ’too much’ as ever. But now she was curious about this new development as well.

The only person who was confused was Alexander Sterling who had no idea what was happening. First, his niece had regained her memories, then his daughter was acting strangely, threatening Lucien Frost, while the other man was calling her Angel...

Demetri Frost seemed to have merged with the background and seemed amused. Finally, he called out, "Evana. Do you know Mr Frost?"

Evangeline cast a scathing glance at Lucien before turning to her father, "Know him! I know him well Daddy. This man is a je*k! If beheading were a thing prevalent today, I’d have him beheaded right away! For that matter, I propose that beheading be made legal again, just so that I can see his head hanging outside my door."

Lucien shuddered and protested," Hey! Why are you so violent? I never did try to hide anything from you. You were the one who did not want to know..."

"Mr. Frost. Please wait a moment." Alexander Sterling spoke quietly. He’d have to be foolish to not understand the undercurrents in the conversation and his daughter’s hurt voice.

Stepping between the two people, he gently took her by the shoulders and helped her sit," Evana, how do you know Lucien Frost."

Evana stared at her father and then at Lucien before looking down and muttering," I met him at a party a few years ago. He saved me from the humiliation that some malicious people had planned."

Alexander Sterling nodded. Of course, there was more to the story than she was letting on so he patted her hand quietly, letting her continue.

Seeing her cousin sitting down, Nora quietly turned off the video and approached Lucien who was looking at Evangeline as if she was his favorite dessert and might disappear from here at any moment.

"What is the story here?", she whispered to Lucien. Distracted, he grimaced, and turned to Nora to answer her, "There is no story. I just..."

"Eleanora! Stay away from him!" Evangeline seeing that she was whispering something to Lucien, quickly intervened.

The anger inside her reignited, she stalked towards Nora who watched her with wide eyes. Was she going to be dragged into some cat fight? She did not want to hurt Evangeline...

Instead of doing anything, Evangeline came to her and actually pulled Eleanora behind her and protectively stood in front of her. With a finger pointed at Lucien’s nose, she shot out," You! You will stay away from my younger sister. I don’t care if you are her husband. I will not let you ruin her! It is a pity that her memory has returned! She was actually lucky to not remember a jerk like you."

Before the onlookers could even realize that Evangeline believed that Lucien was Nora’s husband, Evangeline, was on a roll turned to Nora and spoke," Eleanora! I can see that you love your husband a lot! But he is a jerk! He’s cheated on you. He’s been flirting with other girls behind your back when you were sick."

Demetri, who was standing behind coughed as he glared at Lucien. Why was he being dragged into Lucy’s mess? On the other hand, was everyone blind? It was clear only he could stand by his Nora but they kept thinking someone else was her husband. There was Isabelle previously and not Princess Evangeline.

Lucien, now feeling the threat from his brother as well, stuttered," No. Listen to me..."

Both the girls turned to him in sync and spoke," Be quiet."

Evangeline was relieved to see that Eleanora was listening to her and continued hastily," I know Eleanora that you do not know my much as your sister but I am your older cousin and it is my job to protect you! It’s going to be difficult to accept that he is a cheating bas**** but it is the truth."

As Nora nodded, Alexander Sterling tried to intervene," Evana, child, Mr. Frost is..."

Evangeline turned to her father and quickly cut him off as well," I know Daddy that Frost Industries could be a good ally but not at the expense of Eleanora! Didn’t you always say that the wellbeing of the family is more important than material gains?"

"Yes, but..."

"No buts!," With that, Evangeline turned to Eleanora and continued," The future might seem bleak, but you will not suffer Nora, I promise you."

Holding her hand, Evangeline quickly tugged at her and stated," I will not let this man influence you in any way. You are coming with me this instant. I’ll contact the lawyer and set up a divorce. Also, I’ll make sure that he regrets cheating on you. Just agree to the divorce, Nora."

"But Evangeline..."

Evangeline understood that Eleanora wanted to protest so she cut her off," No. Don’t say anything just now. You must need time to think to make your decision. Just remember you are not alone in this world anymore so you do not need to be with him. Also,"

Nora, knowing that Evangeline would not stop, quickly shook the girls wrist and said," Fine! Fine. I will divorce Demetri."

"Over my dead body." Demetri protested immediately!

But Evangeline was clueless and turned to glare at him! Who do you think you are to stop her?. You do that, Nora. Divorce Demetri...Who is Demetri?" Evangeline asked as she paused for breath...
