Dexter didn’t resist. He turned off the hairdryer and let Evangeline grab his hand to feel his pulse.

He looked down at Evangeline who was feeling his pulse seriously, smiling.

After a while, Evangeline took another hand of his and continued to feel his pulse.

After a few minutes, she let go of his hand and frowned slightly. “Why is your pulse so erratic? And I’ve noticed that you seem a bit depressed lately. Is something bothering you?”

Dexter looked down at her and said, “Not seeing you for a long time makes me anxious. We’ve never been apart for so long”

Evangeline was stunned. She thought about it carefully and realized that they had indeed never been apart since they met each other.

She was abandoned after birth and later adopted by a homeless elderly person with intellectual disabilities.

Her grandfather died when she was three, leaving her homeless

According to city planning regulations, there shouldn’t be homeless people on the streets, so she was often taken away in the.. middle of the night and sent to another city with a group of homeless people.

After a long journey, she was eventually dumped in a chaotic area of a southern border city. Although it was poor, it was tolerant and open and did not reject homeless people.

Of course, it was also full of danger and crime. She later learned that it was called the slums. She met Dexter, who was two months younger than her, and from then on, they became dependent on each other.

She used to hear people there talk about people coming in and taking them back as organ banks for the rich.

She was afraid of being taken away and her organs removed. Therefore, she and Dexter hid during the day and didn’t venture out for food until night

They lived in hiding for two years until, at the age of five, they met Naomi, who was five years older than them.

Because her grandfather who adopted her at the beginning had intellectual disabilities, he never gave her a name. Having learned about this, Naomi named her Evangeline.

Naomi said that her name represented happiness and peace.

The mysterious Naomi had a dilapidated house in that chaotic place.

She took them in and let them live in her house.

They lived together for five years until everything changed when Dexter and she were ten and Naomi was fifteen. She fell seriously ill, and Naomi went abroad to earn money for her medical expenses. As for Dexter, he was found by his family. He and Evangeline had never been apart from each other from three to nineteen until the Gallagher family wanted to take her back a year ago. She was curious about how her biological family differed from the Johnson family who had adopted her.

The Johnson family was very rich and powerful and they didn’t agree to adopt her at first. It was Dexter’s insistence that made them give in. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

She didn’t blame them because, after all, the Johnson family cured her illness and gave her a secure life.

Although they didn’t love her, they never made her suffer.

Because of Dexter, even though they were indifferent towards her, they remained polite. She was grateful to the Johnson

People often had excevuse fantasies and desires for what they had never had. Therefore, at the repeated requests of the Gallagher family, she decided to unite with them

before going back, she wamed Dexter not to look for her and asked him to take good care of himself.

shag out of anger, Dexter didn’t contact her for an entire year “Did you miss me, Eva?” His clear voice brought Evangeline back from her memories.

Evangeline blinked guiltily. Honestly, she didn’t. She was very busy at the Gallagher residence and had no time for him.

“I know your answer, Eva. You don’t have to say anything.” Dexter said.

Evangeline said. Td After defeating the white tiger, the first person she thought of was him.

Dexter said in a low voice, “You don’t have to explain it to me, Eva, Even if you place me last and only think of me when you need help, I won’t be upset.”

Evangeline’s mouth twitched. She knew that every time he kept calling her Eva, it meant he was angry. He rarely used that name when chatting with her, but whenever he was upset, he would deliberately use a strange tone, giving her goosebumps.

Evangeline tried to comfort him. I’m sorry. Don’t be mad at me, okay? You’re starting to get a bit depressed now. Anger isn’t good for your health

Dexter glanced at her seriously and said, “You have a special way of comforting people.”

Evangeline laughed awkwardly.

Dexter continued, “Don’t worry, Eva. Even if I get sick because of my anger, I won’t blame you, and you don’t need to feel responsible for it.”

Evangeline felt helpless. I wasn’t saying that…

Dexter said. “And you don’t need to pay for my funeral.”

Evangeline’s mouth twitched. She reached out to pat him on his head and said, “Enough. If you keep acting weirdly, I’ll beat

you!

Dexter pursed his lips and stared at her.

Then he grabbed her shoulder without saying a word, turned her around, and continued to help her dry hair.

After drying her hair, he walked into the living room without saying a word.

Evangeline followed him out. She collapsed on the couch and kicked him. “Can you stop being mad at me? Let’s make up. okay?”

Dexter said in a low voice, “No. Never. I like being mad. It’s none of your business.”

Evangeline said, “If you keep doing this. I’ll get mad too.”

Dexter glanced at Evangeline and quickly gave in. “Fine, I forgive you this time, but remember, next time you can’t go so long without getting in touch with me. Maybe when you finally think of me one day, I will be dead.”

Evangeline smiled and said, “Okay” She got up to look for her phone in her suitcase. Since it had been plugged into the

power bank, the phone sens pill on after hall a month.

As soon as she turned on her phone, she saw countless messages pop up on WhatsApp,

She dumped back on the couch and checked thote messag

Evangeline felt a bit annoyed. After adding them back on WhatsApp and live–streaming what George and Meghan did, she had forgotten to block them

Evangeline blacklisted the three men without hesitation this time.

Then she started replying to Arthur and her friends messages.

Dexter took a nail clipper from the table, placed her feet on his legs, and silently trimmed her toenails for her.

Evangeline used to do this for Dexter when they were kids, and now it was time for him to pay back.

As soon as Evangeline replied to Steven’s message, Steven directly set up a group chat and invited them for a video call. Evangeline picked it up. When she entered the group chat, there were already four people waiting for her.

Congratulations. Evangeline. You not only won the competition but also broke the record!”

You may not know how happy we are, Evangeline. Many websites crashed because of the online frenzy, and major media is congratulating you on Twitter. Also, every TV channel is reporting your story!”

“Now everyone on the street is praising you!”

“You’ve worked hard these past few days, Evangeline. Take some time to rest. When you’re back, we’ll celebrate for you in person.”

Dexter paused and looked up at Evangeline who was smiling.

He remained expressionless and continued to trim her nails,

“Ouch…” When Evangeline was about to say something, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her little toe. She couldn’t help but

gasp.

“What’s wrong, Evangeline?”

“Are you okay, Evangeline?”

“Are you hurt, Evangeline? If you are, go to the hospital now.”

They were worried about her. However, before Evangeline could say anything, Dexter apologized, “Did I go too deep? I’m sorry. I’ll pay attention next time.”

The four men on the phone stopped talking.
