Lana Chambers sneered, her voice laced with malice. "This is far from over! Does Eve Vaughn think giving us a check settles the score between us? That Charlotte took that beating for nothing? Hmph, in her dreams!"

Jason Vaughn said worriedly, "Maybe we should just let it go. If she can pull out fifteen million, she must be in Jonah Spencer’s good graces right now. Otherwise, she wouldn’t dare defy us like this. Our priority is to make sure Charlotte’s wedding goes smoothly. We shouldn’t be making more enemies, especially not Jonah Spencer. We can’t afford to cross him!"

Lana resisted the urge to call her husband spineless and said patiently, "You don’t get it! It’s precisely because that damn girl has Jonah Spencer’s favor that we have to find a way to make her lose that support. Don’t forget how much Eve Vaughn hates us. Once she becos Mrs. Spencer and decides to get revenge, will we even be able to fight back?"

Jason Vaughn thought for a mont, then nodded. "You’re right! We can’t give her the chance to walk all over us."

anwhile, Eve Vaughn held the signed agreent and let out a small sigh of relief.

At least they wouldn’t harass her endlessly anymore. She could finally have a mont of peace.

「And so, she passed an entire week in peace.」

On Friday night, Mason Lawson had a business dinner, so Eve Vaughn asked Mia Kendall to go shopping.

"He has a banquet, why didn’t you go with him?" Mia Kendall offered, then asked, "Did he even offer to take you?"

Eve thought for a mont and shook her head. "No. Anyway, I’m not comfortable in those kinds of settings. Even if he had asked, I wouldn’t have wanted to go."

Mia analyzed the situation seriously for her. "Whether you want to go and whether he asks you to go are two completely different things. Have you thought about it? Mason Lawson is surrounded by admirers. At public events like this, as his girlfriend, you should be by his side. That’s how you show all those other won to back off. But what does it an that he’s keeping you hidden away like this, your status all vague and unclear?"

Eve’s heart skipped a beat. She fell silent for a mont before saying, "He probably has his reasons. Even if he wanted to make our relationship public, I wouldn’t want to. I’m just a regular college student right now. At least, not until the day I’m worthy of him."

"Now that’s where you’re wrong!" Mia said. "How are you not worthy of him? For one, you’re younger than him! When he’s sixty, with osteoporosis and can barely walk, you’ll only be fifty! He’ll probably be the one relying on you to take care of him!"

Eve didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at her friend’s words.

Mia said with a straight face, "Don’t laugh, I’m being completely serious! You need to find so ti to ask him and get a clear answer. Regardless of whether you want to go public, he needs to show his stance. Otherwise, what’s the point? He calls you his girlfriend, but you’re just his stay-at-ho girlfriend? Don’t forget that woman from last ti. That was a lesson. If you had been by Mason Lawson’s side then, would those little vixens have dared to cling to him?"

Although Mia Kendall was usually carefree and sotis spoke without thinking, Eve Vaughn felt that what she said today made a lot of sense.

So, she decided she would find the right ti to ask him what he was thinking.

Just then, her phone rang. It was her uncle.

Eve frowned instinctively. ’I already gave them the check. What kind of trick is he trying to pull now?’

Probably out of curiosity, Eve answered the call.

This ti, Jason Vaughn’s voice wasn’t its usual arrogant self. Instead, he spoke politely, "Evie, don’t get the wrong idea. I’m not calling to cause trouble today. Tomorrow is your grandmother’s seventy-ninth birthday. When your father was alive, he’d co celebrate her birthday every year. Now that your father is gone, shouldn’t you at least co over for a al and celebrate with your grandmother on this day?"

Eve rembered that when her father was alive, he would indeed take their family of three back to their hotown on her grandmother’s birthday, or he’d bring her grandmother to Rivaster.

Even though her grandmother had always been cold and distant toward her father, her father had always been a very filial son.

As Eve hesitated, Jason Vaughn added, "Your grandmother has been talking about your dad a lot recently. Sigh, she even said she dread about him last night."

Eve’s heart trembled slightly. "I’m surprised she even rembers my dad," she said.

She had thought her grandmother only cared about her uncle, her one living son, and had long since forgotten about the deceased Simon Vaughn.

For her father’s sake, Eve Vaughn agreed. "Alright, I’ll go back to our hotown tomorrow."

"No need to go to the hotown, your grandmother is with ," Jason Vaughn said. "You were right the other day. Now that your dad is gone, I should take on the responsibility of caring for your grandmother. We’ve moved into a villa in Violet Court, so just co here tomorrow."

After agreeing, Eve hung up, feeling a bit strange.

’Did Jason Vaughn have a personality transplant after getting that fifteen million?’

The two of them finished their shopping, watched a movie, and had dinner. By then, it was already very late.

Mason Lawson ca to pick up Eve Vaughn and also gave Mia Kendall a ride back to the Kendall Family’s ho.

He had had a bit to drink at the banquet, so his driver was at the wheel.

Sitting in the front passenger seat, Mia Kendall sent Eve a WeChat ssage: "Give him a sniff. See if you can sll any woman’s perfu on him."

Eve secretly glanced at Mason Lawson beside her and texted Mia back a single word: "Boring!"

However, after Mia got out of the car, on the way back, Eve really did lean closer to Mason Lawson and subtly took a sniff.

All she could sll was alcohol; there didn’t seem to be any perfu.

Seemingly noticing her small movent, the man’s lips curved into a slight smile. He pulled her directly into his arms and said, "What are you sniffing for, like a little puppy?"

Eve was instantly embarrassed. ’So he noticed after all.’

Still, she tried to bluff her way out of it. "I was just trying to sll how much you drank. And from the sll of it, you definitely didn’t hold back."

Mason Lawson chuckled, his hands beginning to roam restlessly over her body. "You little liar, you don’t even bother thinking up your excuses anymore! Aren’t you afraid I’ll get wild now that I’m drunk, hmm?"

"Mr. Lawson..."

Eve quickly grabbed his hand, stopping his movents.

The driver was still in the front seat, after all.
