"Vivian William, let's see who will save you this time” Evelyn scoffed with eyes full of jealous rage.
She stood and left after a while. At that point, it was a crucial moment. All her planning would be futile if Finnick suddenly returned and saw her here.
While changing her shoes at the entrance, she clenched her fist in hatred at the sight of Vivian's and Finnick's shoes placed together neatly on the shoe rack.
She swore that she would wipe away all traces left by Vivian from every corner of this house.
She swung her gaze away from the shoe rack and opened the door. There stood a person she never expected to see here.
"Ben, what...what're you doing here?" stammered Evelyn. Her face turned guilty from the unexpected appearance of Benedict.
"That is what I should be asking you." Benedict trained his sharp gaze on Evelyn. "What are you doing at Vivian's and Finnick's house?
"I...I..." Evelyn's eyes darted everywhere but Benedict's face. She couldn't find a valid excuse for her being there.
Despite not knowing the reason for her being there at the very least, he knew she was up to no good seeing the guilty look on her face.
"Haven't you done enough to Vivian? What else are you planning to do to her?" Benedict interrogated fiercely.
Evelyn trembled at Benedict's sudden raised tone and replied unhappily, "Ben, you have scared me.
Why are you acting all mean?"
Benedict pointed furiously at Evelyn. "Tell me now! What are you planning to do? I'm warning you now if you dare to harm Vivian again, I'll be the first to punish you for it!"
"Ben!" Evelyn had never been treated by Benedict this way. He'd always spoiled her since young.
