Obviously, the other party was also stunned. When he saw Evangeline, he paused for a moment and then returned to normal.
Evangeline thought that such a pause wouldn't attract Zion's attention, but Zion was very concerned about everything regarding Evangeline.
"What? You two know each other?"
"No."
"Yes."
The two of them answered at the same time. It was indeed a different answer.
Evangeline suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She had said that she didn't know him.
The other side sneered and said, "Miss Xiao is still a cold and aloof girl. She doesn't like nameless people like me. Well, let's pretend that we don't know each other."
Benji Shelby's words made Evangeline even more embarrassed.
"No, I just didn't think of it for a while. You're my classmate, my classmate in high school."
Evangeline chuckled.
If she had known that she would meet Benji who had pursued her in high school, she would not have followed Zion here.
But how could Benji know Zion?
Evangeline was confused.
Zion looked at Evangeline meaningfully. The look in his eyes made Evangeline's hair stand on end. She even wanted to turn around and run away.
Just when she didn't know what to do, Zion opened his mouth and spoke up.
"Benji, take a look at her wound. She's my fiance."
Zion emphasized the words "fiance".
Benji was slightly stunned, and his expression was a little complicated. However, he said self-deprecatingly, "I want to, but I'm afraid that Miss Xiao won't like my skills. Why don't you find someone else for her to see?
Besides, it’s improper for men and women to be intimate with each other, and you will feel embarrassed, won't you?"
"No, in my eyes, you two are just doctors and patients. Besides, shortly after the operation, she fought with others and tore open the wound that has been delayed for so long. It's inevitable for her to be infected if she finds someone else. What's wrong? Why do you choose patients as a doctor?"
Although Zion's last words were not threatening, Benji couldn't take it anymore.
"Yes."
Benji turned around and walked into the villa.
Evangeline looked at his back with some hesitation. Thinking of his relentless pursuit of her and her ruthless refusal, she never thought that there would be a chance for her to meet him again one day.
She remembered that Benji was having a difficult period of time as a student. He went to school all because of his scholarship. On the one hand, it was because she had someone in her heart. On the other hand, she didn't want such an active boy to delay his studies because of feelings, so she was very determined at that time.
How were they going to get along with each other now?
Sh*t!
"Why does Benji have a relationship with Zion? And they seem to be on good terms." She thought to herself.
The more Evangeline thought about it, the more conflicted she became.
Looking at the expression on her face, Zion couldn't help asking, "What's wrong? Is his back more handsome than me?"
"Ah? No!"
Evangeline quickly clarified, but she didn't know how to explain it.
"Get in and treat your wound. There's no hurry for you to stay here tonight. We have a night to talk about your relationship with Benji."
His words made Evangeline want to cry.
She really didn't want to talk at all!
However, Zion didn't give her time to refuse. He picked her up and walked in.
