She lives a quiet, humble life as a farm girl, and everyone around her sees only a simple country woman. But beneath that plain exterior lies a billionaire identity waiting to be uncovered, and the truth will upend every assumption people made about her.
Or were you trying to make sure I looked like a plus-sized stripper? Just then, Nathan Blackwell walked in. Without even looking at me, he went straight to Evelyn. You mentioned that luxury handbag you wanted was sold out.
I had someone get it for you through a private auction. Thank you, but you're engaged to Chloe. This might not be appropriate. Only then did Nathan finally turn to me.
Since you're still here, I'll make this clear. Our parents arranged this engagement. That doesn't mean I agree to it. If you have any sense, you'll ask your family to call it off yourself. Don't make this ugly for everyone.
Put your mind at ease, Nathan. I'm not interested in you. This engagement is over as far as I'm concerned. If you really want out, have your father talk to mine today. Don't stand there acting like you're above me. You're not.
