Chapter 318: Dishonest

As soon as Rose left the room, she was surprised to see her husband staring at her with an unfathomable expression. Makes her feel awkward.

"Hubby ... why are you looking at me like that? Is there anything you want to say?" Rose asked curiously.

Evan didn’t answer her immediately, but he took her hand and quickly left the place. Once they were outside, Evan glanced at her again before saying,

"Are you okay?" He glanced at his wife, who was walking beside him.

Evan’s heart was still tense at the thought of what had happened in the room. Previously, when he was waiting for her, he did not let his guard down for a second. Just in case something happened to her inside. Because he believed that the evil woman would obviously hurt his wife verbally.

But he felt strange when he saw his wife coming out of the room. Her facial expression looked normal.

Not the slightest hint of anger or sadness radiated from her eyes. There was only a sweet smile on her face.

"Yeah, I’m fine. But ... that woman doesn’t believe my words and still blames me for her son’s death." Rose chuckled before continuing. "Whatever happened, I feel more relieved because I’ve been honest with her. Whether she believes me or not, that’s her business ...."

"I’m glad you’re feeling better ..." Evan slightly rubbed her back as they continued walking towards the parking lot.

Rose took a deep breath before continuing, "I don’t want to deal with that woman anymore. I hope she doesn’t bother my mother and me anymore ...."

"Wife, I promise, that woman won’t have the chance to do that again ... I will make sure she stays in prison forever. You don’t have to worry ..." he said quietly.

But guilt clouded his mind a few seconds later as if something touched his heart. Because of his actions, the evil woman harbored anger at his wife.

It wasn’t long before Rose and Evan were sitting in the car. However, something seemed to hold Evan from starting the vehicle. Two minutes passed, but they were still in the parking lot. Neither of them started a conversation.

Rose was deep in thought. While Evan was busy blaming himself, It was he who caused Sonya Moses to hurt his mother-in-law.

If he hadn’t gone too far to get rid of Dustin, his mother-in-law’s fatal accident would never have happened. And his wife doesn’t have to go through all this.

After thinking for a moment, Evan turned to look at his wife. He saw her looking out the window, propping her head in her hands.

What is she thinking?

Seeing her expressionless face from the car window’s reflection worried him.

"Wife ... I’m sorry!"

"Huh!? Sorry? Sorry, why? Did you do something wrong?" Rose asked cheerfully and slightly confused.

"Sorry for being dishonest with you..."

Dishonest? About what?

Rose was taken aback hearing his words. Instantly she was worried about what Evan would say to her.

"Gosh! Hubby, can you not scare me?"

"I’m sorry?"

"You’ve said it three times. Sorry? What for? Oh-my-god ... are you cheating?" Rose was stunned to say her last words.

"WHAT! No! How could I do that to you?" Evan was shocked.

"So why are you apologizing?"

"I caused your mother to be attacked by that woman. All because of my jealousy towards that bastard!!" Evan’s voice sounded cold, making Rose freeze hearing his words. She sat up straight, looking at him. Confused.

"Evan... no... I mean, Hubby! Please say it clearly. I don’t quite understand what you’re trying to say."

Rose didn’t understand why Evan was suddenly acting weird. This was the first time she had seen him flustered. This man had always been reliable during this time and never seemed to hesitate when saying his words.

After taking a deep breath, Evan told Rose everything; That he was the one who reported Dustin as a drug dealer to the local police.

"Gosh! Hubby, you scare me ..." she lightly punched Evan’s arm, "I thought you were hiding something big ...."

"Wife ... please listen to me until I’m finished speaking ..." said Evan with care.

"Sorry, Hubby. Is there anything else you want to say?" Once again, Rose felt her heart tighten.

"The man suspected I sent him to jail because he saw me when I found you in the studio." Evan paused, angry, remembering his wife almost killed herself because that bastard almost raped her. "That’s why he made a deal with the White Skull gang to kidnap you ...."

Rose was utterly shocked. Her hands slightly tremble as she remembered that the man was a savage.

"Wait... Wait... H-Hubby, so you’re saying attempted car abduction ... was Dustin’s orders?"

"Hmm ... he asked the White Skull Gangster for help. And when I found out he did, I was furious. At that time, I met the gangsters and threatened them; I will not report them to the authorities on one condition, they have to teach that damn man a lesson in prison ...."

Rose listened to Evan’s explanation in silence; still, her heart was beating fast with shock. She never imagined Evan would go that far just to protect her from Dustin. But, hearing him blame himself, somehow her heart ached.

"Unbeknownst to me, my order to teach that man a lesson had to cost his life ...."

Seeing Evan’s hand gripping the steering wheel, Rose knew right away that this man was still blaming himself.

Slowly she touched his hand gently, "Please stop blaming yourself. This is not your fault ...."

"However ..." before Evan could finish his words, Rose said ....

"No. Don’t talk about this anymore. I promised myself not to think about that man and his mother anymore ..." Rose’s soft voice made Evan’s frozen heart slowly melt. "And stop blaming yourself. You did the right thing to report him to the authorities ...."

Evan nodded slowly.

"Let’s go! My mom had already texted. She asked us to come back for lunch ...."

Soon their car moved. However, Rose’s phone vibrated as the vehicle left the detention area. She was taken aback when her eyes saw the incoming message from Willard Harper.

Rose suddenly remembered that she had not responded to the man’s invitation for lunch.
