Save Her Lose Us (Evangeline and Soren) novel Chapter 49

Glenn's arrival caught both Winston and Helena off guard.

Winston's face flushed with embarrassment. He didn't dare scold Glenn, so he turned his irritation on Evangeline instead. "If you were waiting for a friend, why didn't you say so earlier?"

Evangeline almost laughed. "Did you ever give me the chance to explain?"

Not that it would've mattered, she thought—Winston probably wouldn't have believed her anyway.

"Alright then, since you're waiting for someone, we'll get out of your way," Hazel interjected with a bright, diplomatic smile, trying to ease the tension.

Winston, clearly annoyed but unable to argue further, had no choice but to leave with a sour look.

Hazel tugged gently on Giselle, who was still staring blankly, and the two of them headed toward the departure gate.

But just before leaving, Hazel couldn't help glancing back over her shoulder.

In her memory, Evangeline was always a lone wolf—distant, self-sufficient, never the type to have close friends. When did she start spending time with people like that? And judging by his appearance, this Glenn fellow clearly wasn't just anybody.

As Hazel pondered this, Giselle suddenly stopped in her tracks, turned, and gazed dreamily back at Glenn. "Mom, that man is gorgeous. Do you know who he is?"

Hazel shook her head, curiosity piqued. She turned to Winston. "Do you recognize him?"

Winston squinted. "He does look a little familiar."

Before he could say anything more, Giselle's eyes lit up. "Dad, can you introduce us? Please? I really like him."

Winston frowned slightly. "Looking familiar is one thing, but I don't actually know him. It's not that simple."

Giselle pouted, unwilling to give up. The thought that such an attractive man was here for Evangeline made her even more frustrated.
