"Anne, you can go by yourself or you might be dragged by me."
By this time, Esmeralda had come to her senses.
This was the territory of the Rafferty. Everyone here belonged to him. She and Evangeline couldn't escape from this place at all. Instead of letting Evangeline get involved in this, she might as well let her go. This matter had nothing to do with her.
"Anne, I'm already very grateful that you've come to save me. You're the person that Klaus cares about the most. He has never been raised by the Laurent family since he was young. He has to fight in front of the Laurent family alone, and from time to time, he has to be wary of the schemes of the Laurent family. He doesn't live an easy life. On the other hand, I'm the one who grew up pampered by my father. Actually, I live a more comfortable life than anyone else, but now I know that I’m not father's daughter. Isn't that very ironic? However, I also know that I can't let someone who isn't a daughter of the Laurent family implicate someone that Klaus cares about the most. Anne, I envy you a lot. Really!"
Esmeralda's eyes were filled with tears.
She struggled free of Evangeline's hand as if she was walking back.
Killing one was enough, killing two to earn one!
Esmeralda intended to go back, but she didn't expect that Evangeline would suddenly give her a slap from the back.
When her body slowly slipped into Evangeline's arms, she heard Evangeline say, "Everyone's life can be very wonderful. I promised you that I would take you back with me."
After saying that, Evangeline jumped out of the window with Esmeralda in her arms.
Esmeralda finally fainted, but her lips curled into a smile.
Did Klaus care about her?
Even if she had schemed against Klaus at the beginning, wouldn't he blame her?
A tear rolled down from the corner of Esmeralda's eye.
She had never hated her plan so much. For the first time, she felt that she was very bad in front of Evangeline and Zion.
Evangeline didn't know what Esmeralda was thinking at the moment. After she jumped out of the window with Esmeralda in her arms, the door of the room was also knocked open.
When they saw Rafferty lying on the ground, covered in blood, they immediately panicked.
The whole villa was in a mess.
Evangeline quickly brought Esmeralda to the back of the mountain. Mylo was already waiting.
"Get in the car!"
Evangeline was stunned for a moment. She didn't ask Mylo why he was here, nor did she ask anything else. She quickly carried Esmeralda into the car.
Mylo stepped on the accelerator quickly, and the car flew out as if it were flying.
On the way, Evangeline didn't say a word. Mylo looked at her and asked in a low voice, "Do you trust me so much? Aren't you afraid that I will send you to the Amor to get a reward?"
"You won't!"
Evangeline was very sure, which made Mylo stunned for a moment.
"Why not? After all, people's hearts are unpredictable, aren't they?"
"Because of Rita, you won't!"
Evangeline's words stunned Mylo again. He then looked at Evangeline and said, "You're really nice to her."
"She is my best friend and my sister-in-law. The person I don't want to hurt the most in my life is Zion, so I believe that the person you don't want to hurt the most in your life is Rita."
Hearing Evangeline's words, Mylo didn't say anything, but his heart was stirred.
His closest parents and grandfather had never trusted him so much, but Rita believed in him. Now even her best friend trusted him unconditionally. What else could he feel sad about?
After all, he was no longer alone in this world.
He had a companion, a family, and a lover. His life began to have color, didn't it?
The smile on Mylo's face disappeared.
"She's fine. Her body is very weak now. She can't contact you, but she's worried about you."
