Rogue

Evangeline grew impatient, stood up, walked to Edward, and grabbed him by the collar, forcefully pulling him up from the floor.

With a loud thud, she slammed him onto the meeting table and slapped the termination contract prepared by the lawyer in front of him. “Quickly sign the contract. Don’t waste my time.” Evangeline demanded.

Edward gritted his teeth and said. “Let’s talk privately. After we are done talking. I will sign it.”

Evangeline narrowed her eyes to slits. A cold glint in

flashed across her eyes.

Without a word, she placed his left hand on the table and, with her right hand clenched into a fist, ruthlessly struck down

Thud!

“Ah!” Edward let out another miserable cry.

His whole body trembled with pain as his face contorted. “Evangeline, how can you, as a girl, be so violent? You’re becoming more and more detestable! By acting like this, how can you compare with Meghan? Although she may have some inconsistencies, at least she’s gentle. Unlike you, so violent, always resorting to physical violence!”

minds of the Gallagher family are not quite normal,”

After Hugo heard Edward’s words, he couldn’t help rolling his eyes. Tve noticed that the min

He added, “The livestream has exposed Meghan. She took the lead in forming gangs to bully Evangeline and pushed her off the cliff. Why do you still think she is good! Your brains are meant for thinking, not to be an accessory.”

Steven said contemptuously, “Did Meghan not want to resort to physical violence? It’s because she can’t win!TM

Finnegan nodded in agreement. “That’s right. Meghan took the lead in attacking Evangeline several times in the livestream, but they were no match for Evangeline.”

Edward’s face darkened

He paid no attention to their ridicule but glared at Evangeline with a sinister gaze.

Evangeline hooked her lips, smirking. “Hate me, huh? Can’t stand me, huh? Well,

you can go die.”

She continued to provoke, “You can’t beat me and can’t outsmart me. Cursing at me won’t change a thing. I’m not going to change. Look at you. It must be so tiring to be alive. End your life, and it’s all over. You won’t have to be angry anymore.”

“You…” Edward was enraged and almost spitted blood. “You are heartless, wishing for me to die!”

Evangeline tilted her head and smiled innocently. “Wasn’t it you who wanted me dead first! You made me sign that contract, intending to expose me to cyberbullying, pushing me to end my life, right? Don’t tell me you didn’t know the consequences when you had me sign that contract,”

She continued. “As the owner of an entertainment company, you know exactly what would happen if I followed that contract. But when you made me sign it, there was no hesitation. Even after I signed it, I could see the satisfaction and schadenfreude in your eyes. Do you think you deserve my sympathy?”

Edward’s handsome face turned red.

His lips moved, attempting to explain, but he found no

I no words.

When they were discussing the contract, the intention was to subject Evangeline to online attacks as a punishment.

He was well aware of the power of cyberbullying.

Many people were driven to depression and had even taken their own lives due to cyberbullying.

However, Edward thought they couldn’t be blamed.

At that time, Evangeline beat up their whole family and sold the shares of Gallagher Group to their competitor at a low price. She seemed determined to ruin the Gallagher family. Hence, they felt justified in teaching her a lesson.

“Stop

p talking nonsense and sign this quickly, or I will break your other hand, Evangeline impatiently declared.

10:31 AM

Edward gritted his teeth, picked up the pen. and forcefully signed the contract, sealing it with the company’s stamp.

Then, Evangeline handed the contract to the lawyer.

The next step involved the lawyer completing the necessary procedures and officially terminating her contract with Superb Entertainment..

From now on, she would be a free agent.

Evangeline turned and left Superb Entertainment.

As soon as she walked out of the company, her phone rang.

It was a call from the police station.

Evangeline answered the phone quickly.

The police officer on the phone sounded apologetic. “Evangeline, I have news for you. George stated that Meghan has a mental disorder. He had a psychiatrist to check on her, and the psychiatrist diagnosed her with schizophrenia. She has been released for now. As for Samson, he has been released on bail

Evangeline responded calmly, I see. Thank you.”

After hanging up the phone, she curled her lips into a smile.

Reporting to the police was just a procedural step.

It also let the Gallagher family understand her determination and dispelled any unrealistic fantasies they might have.

Before reporting to the police, she knew that even if the charges against Meghan were proven, the Gallagher family had the means to get her out.

Although the family business of the Gallagher family was affected, it didn’t collapse entirely. Getting Meghan out of trouble was only a trivial

maller

Their accumulated connections and relationships over three generations would be worthless if they couldn’t handle such a minor issue. “Have Meghan and Samson been released!” Arthur asked.

His tone showed no surprise. Apparently, he expected this outcome.

Evangeline nodded and replied. “Yes, they are out. However, they will soon realize that prison is their sanctuary. The real hell awaits them outside. Arthur raised an eyebrow and smiled.

He thought, It seemed she didn’t intend to let the Gallagher family go.

Arthur said, “If you need help, just let me know. I’ll assist you.”“”

Hugo raised his hand and said, “Count me in I can help you, tool”

Steven said. “And me! And me!”

Finnegan touched his nose and said, “I can’t help you with your revenge. But if you ever feel mentally disturbed, I can offer my support.”

Thud!

Arthur punched Finnegan on the head with force. “Watch your words, don’t casually curse people for being mentally disturbed” Evangeline didn’t respond to them. She walked forward and said, “I am in a good mood today. I will treat you all to a meall”

Hugo suggested, “Well, there’s a new fancy restaurant on Xosa Street How about trying it

Evangeline said, “It’s my treat. It’s up to me. We’ll eat wherever I want.”

Hugo smiled, “All right, we’ll follow where you lead us, ma’am. We’ll have whatever you treat us!”

With a disdainful expression, Steven criticized, “You’re calling someone several years younger than you ‘ma’am? You’re making her sound old!”

Hugo said, “Despite being younger than me, her aura is stronger. Calling her ‘ma’am‘ is fitting”

The two bantered like a pair of artillery guns, exchanging words without stopping. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Half an hour later, the group sat around a table in a small restaurant, each with a bowl of fermented fish noodle soup in front of them

Evangeline slurped on the noodles and drank some iced cola. Sansfied, she let out a belch.

The other four stared at their bowls with grave expressions, not moving their forks for a long time.

“Evangeline, is this edible?” Arthur’s gaze looked complicated, his brows furrowed in resistance,

Evangeline rolled her eyes at him and said. Tim eating it now. Are you asking if it’s edible?”

Arthur was at a loss for words.

Evangeline said, “If you don’t want to eat it, stay away from me. Those who cannot stomach this cannot be trusted. Don’t think about getting close

to mel

Upon hearing that, Arthur’s mouth twitched.

He thought. Is she for real?

After an internal struggle, he reluctantly picked up his fork and started to cat

“How is it? What does it taste like? Does it resemble shit? Anxiously, Steven asked.

Arthur twitched the comer of his mouth and glanced at him. Thaven’t eaten that before, so how would i know what it tastes like?”

Steven was rendered speechless.

Suddenly, Arthur said, “It tastes okay. You can give it a try.

Upon hearing Arthur’s words, the others finally picked up their forks and started eating.

The noodles were addictive. The more they ate, the more they liked it.

Initially, they wore expressions of disdain, but in the end, they finished their bowls and even drank two sips of the soup.

After leaving the noodle restaurant, Steven suggested going to the Amusement Villa. This place was his family business dedicated to entertaining the wealthy, a place ordinary people couldn’t easily access.

Evangeline had no objections.

She hadn’t properly enjoyed herself during her year back in Hofcaster.

Steven said, “My family’s resort is close to Noffort Circuit We can go there in the evening to watch the races. This year’s international competition is held there tonight”

He added, “By the way, ma’am, are you interested in car racing? If you aren’t, you can go somewhere else with Arthur tonight. The racing venue belongs to my family. I have to check it out.”

“Did Jasper sign up for it?” Hugo asked.

Steven nodded and said, “Yeah, he also signed up. He participates every year. Last year, it was held in Wallera, and he joined too, ranking in the

top

ten”

Hugo said, “He’s quite persistent. I heard he participates every year, only to catch the attention of Queen Jade. He aims for good results to get noticed by Queen Jade.”

Jasper’s idol was Jade.

Jade was a legendary figure in the racing world. Almost everyone who loved racing considered Jade as their idol.

Evangeline’s eyes sparkled, and she asked, “Is it still possible to register now?”

Steven was puzzled. “What?”

Chapter 43

Evangeline repeated, “Is it still possible to register now?”

Steven finally replied, “Well… Theoretically, it’s too late because they’ve already sorted out the groups, and the slots are fixed.”

He continued. “Although this competition isn’t a major one, it’s relatively formal, not just an entertainment race. For entertainment races, you can sign up anytime. But that’s in theory. You can buy a slot to join at the last minute.”

Evangeline said. “Can you help me buy a slot! I have a friend.

Steven said, “Certainly, many mediocre racers intentionally sign up to sell their slots. What’s your friend’s name? Tell me the name, and I’ll contact the racing venue to arrange it. We can change the name on the slot”

“Jade, Evangeline replied.

Everyone’s expressions froze, and they looked at Evangeline in astonishment.

Steven asked. “Are you kidding me?”
