Chapter 94
At this moment, Rebecca knew the truth couldn’t be hidden forever. She heaved a sigh and uttered, “Yes, he is my ex husband, and the onhei genuinely loves is Emily, not me.”
As Boris heard this, his eyes dilated in disbelief. He rarely showed such an unbelievable expression but hearing that the woman he tried to pursue We Chris Evans’s ex–wife, his world shakened.
“You are Chris Evans’s ex–wife?” Bo
“Yes, I am.” Rebecca confessed.
questioned and was taken by surprise.
She chewed her lips, brushing off the searing pain in her heart as she continued, “Four years ago, I divorced Chris and took the blame for Emily’s
crime.”
Perhaps it was because Rebecca’s heart died the moment she accepted her defeat. When Rebecca talked about the past, her eyes were as calm as water, and there was no hatred and anger in the past.
Did she forget the humiliation she had received. past?
the
No, it was etched in her mind, and she ignored the budding thorn in her heart.
Before Rebecca had absolute strength, she couldn’t reveal her true intentions. Or else, the opponent would have killed her before she even made a move, especially when the opponent was a strong man like Chris.
“That day, I gave birth to my daughter.” Rebecca mumbled. A mixture of grief and guilt flashed across her eyes. Thinking about her daughter made her hollow because Rebeccaana was the only weakness she had in this life.
Another bombshell!
Boris stood still for a long time before coming back to his senses.
“I didn’t realize your story was so rough.”
Taken aback, it took Boris a long time before he digested Rebecca’s statement and regained his senses. His eyes flickered in sympathy as he gazed at Rebecca and consoled her.
After saying this, he heaved a sigh, feeling stuffy in his heart, and went on, “Rebecca, you’re strong. Would you mind if I asked something?”
“You can,” Rebecca responded, looking at Boris with a hint of trust.
“Is the child custody in Chris Evans’s hands? If so, you’re having a hard time when you want to visit her, right?” Boris probed, which made Rebecca silent as though he had hit the nail on the head.
“Yes, Chris forbade my existence. My daughter didn’t know her mother existed because Chris would never allow it. Even if we meet, he will strictly control the time.” Rebecca said helplessly.
Boris felt like his throat had dried. He may not be Rebecca, but for a mother who yearned for her child, he admires her courage not to shed a tear in front of him. “Rebecca, do you want to reclaim the child’s custody?” He asked firmly.
“I want to,” Rebecca paused, in two minds, and blurted out, “But…”
“It’s alright. Leave the rest to me. I’m a lawyer. I might not be able to beat Chris in business, but in this field, I had the upper hand.” Boris remarked. Grateful for what she heard, a part of Rebecca refused Boris‘ intention. She could not involve him in her personal affairs any further.
“I believe in your ability, but I don’t have any plans to file a lawsuit recently. I want to find a job first and then consider other things when I have a certain financial strength.” Rebecca politely rejected
In fact, Rebecca knew how wise Boris was. Besides, he was no stranger to things in the wealthy family. He could easily guess what she was worried
about and understand it.
“I understand and respect your decision, Rebecca. However, the evil couldn’t overpower the righteous. We must understand how to use legal means to protect our rights and interests because we live in a society where the law is supreme. Think things over first, and find me at the office at any time.

Til definitely help you get back what you deserve. Bork stated, hiniling at determination.
That night, Rebecca fell asleep.
Chris And Boris’s words were deeply imprinted in her mind. One warned her sternly, and the other sincerely offered her a hand to help
In this predicament, if Rebecca rejected Boris, she would appear to be hypocritical and have different opinions.
However, she could not use his safety as a bet. If she did things that would push Chris’s Initton, she knew better than anyone how cruel that man was
As the night deepened, Rebecca finally made up her mind. She took out her phone and made up
a message for Boris.
Boris: II’m sorry, but I have to turn down your offer. I appreciate your good intentions, but I don’t deserve them. I’m a troubled woman, and I’m not worth your time.]
As soon as the message was sent, Rebecca didn’t think twice and turned her phone off.
She knew how persistent Boris was, and she didn’t want to take advantage of his kindness any more. She’d rather choose the latter, which is to deal with it on her own.
Under the moonlight, tears fell from the corners of her eyes as Chris’s cold and ruthless warning lingered in her ears, making her fall into the depths of the abyss.
‘Rebecca, I did not let you die in prison. You owe me your life. Remember, whoever helps you is my enemy. If I find out that you and Mr. Scordia are plotting something behind my back, neither of you will witness the sun the next day…
Rebecca cried herself to sleep with those sharp words wavering in her mind. It was a nightmare that kept her being hunted as though she was shrouded in a net by Chris and had nowhere to escape.
Days passed and Monday approached which indeed kept Chris from becoming busy as a bee.
In the morning, he personally sent Rebeccaana to the kindergarten. When he learned that Rebecca had resigned, a sense of relief lingered in his heart as he handed his daughter over to the new teacher.
After ensuring Rebeccaana’s safety, Chris was about to turn around. However, Rebeccaana’s voice sounded from behind, saying, “Dad, please let Grandma Agatha pick me up in the future.”
Chris’s body stiffened upon hearing those words coming from his daughter.
When he turned around again, his heart was tightly grasped upon witnessing that Rebeccaana had already held the teacher’s hand, and the two walked into the building without looking back.
Rebeccaana didn’t even bid him goodbye, and with that thought, Chris’s eyes became grim, and a strong sense of frustration welled up in his heart. He turned his back and left the place with dangerous, heavy footsteps.
On his way to the company, Chris sat in the back seat with a cold expression which the driver didn’t dare to question what had caused his mood to deteriorate. Instead, he secretly glanced at the rearview mirror and held his breath.
“Turn around and go to Downtown New York.” Chris deadpanned.
With that, the driver nodded and followed what Chris/commanded. He maneuvered the vehicle and drove in the lane toward the designated place.
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance to downtown New York. The driver peered in the rearview mirror and found Chris asleep.
“Mr. Evans, we’ve already arrived.” The driver spoke politely.
Chris quickly opened his eyes, turned his head to look at the dilapidated building outside the window, and frowned in disdain. Is he crazy? He actually asked to drive in this shabby place! Did he really plan to go upstairs to see if Rebecca was at home?
Chris felt an inexplicable irritability and anger upon pondering these thoughts. He did not know whether to hate Rebecca or himself.
The temperature inside the car suddenly dropped, colder than ever before.
Tangled in chaos, he clicked his tongue and remarked, “Turn around and go to the company.”
Baffled by Chris’s unpredictable temperament, the driver didn’t dare to ask anything and drove back to the Evans Corporation. He only thought that
Chapter 94
Chris Evans was far too busy running his conglomerate life than chasing glitters and golds.
Meanwhile, Rebecca was busy looking for a job outside. She had been interviewed by several companies without success,
Her education was not low. Wasn’t on the lower scale and after all, she was once the daughter of the Gadot family. Her mother had put a lot of Citon into cultivating her to be prim and proper.
Although she was not an all–rounder, her talent and strength in painting were still worth mentioning to look at. During her school days, she won many awards in prestigious competitions.
At that time, every time Rebecca won an award, she would call Chris to share her triumph with him.
However, Rebecca’s expectations had always been shattered. She had never heard a good word from Chris’s mouth. He didn’t even bother to congratulate nor dotted her, and only treated her as a speck of dust in the thin air.
Unexpectedly, Rebecca got the opportunity to study at a prestigious foreign school. There was only one place in New York for her, but she did not seize the opportunity and threw it away without considering its merits.
She naively thought that Chris would be moved if she’d do it for him but,
it was

all in her whimsical dream. He despised and hated her.
In her youth, she fell in love with Chris. She restrained all her radiance and isolated from the world after marriage. She was willing to be a meek and obedient Mrs. Evans, just to win his love and favor but in the end, it ruined her.
Looking back at her weak and pathetic self, Rebecca retracted her thoughts. She gazed
at the returned resume in her hand and let out a bitter laugh.
If she hadn’t been in love, she wouldn’t have done anything for Emily. She would already be an excellent designer and made her name in the fashion industry.
