Chapter 362: Life and Death Hanging by a Thread (40)

Evelyn still maintained her usual gentle smile, speaking to Elijah in a soft and spoiled tone, "Elijah, when do you have time recently?"

Elijah leaned against the wall, lazily raising his head to glance at Evelyn, then slowly swirled the wine in his glass, seeming somewhat indifferent. "Charlotte Green, what's up?"

"Nothing much. You promised to take me to Hong Kong. Next week I happen to want to take annual leave. If you have time, we can go together," Evelyn's tone was soft and gentle.

In the past, Elijah would have agreed without a second thought. But today, he couldn't help but think of the words Isabel had said during their argument: "If I don't take these away, do you expect me to just watch you spend all this on some frivolous woman?"
