Chapter 1347

Chapter 1347:

“I’m not in a relationship with Jenny.”

Waylon wanted to explain himself, but deep down, he knew his words wouldn’t sound convincing enough.

“Forget it. I’ll take you to see Jenny right now and prove there’s nothing going on between us!”

“I don’t want to…”

Waylon had already grasped Evie’s wrist. She struggled, twisting her arm a couple of times, but his grip held steady.

Without giving her another chance to resist, Waylon guided her into the car and blocked the door.

“Evie, listen to me. I don’t want any misunderstandings between us. You didn’t deny my guess just now, which means we’re not done yet.” He closed the car door before she could argue, then circled to the driver’s seat, got in, and started the engine.

As the car moved forward at a steady pace, Evie stole a glance at him, her fingers unconsciously tightening around the seatbelt. In the end, she let out a slow breath and gave up on the thought of jumping out.

There was no escaping Waylon. She had to face the reality head-on. She had already lost him once before. Having him back now was something she couldn’t take lightly. Gone was the girl who passively accepted love; she had become someone willing to chase after what she truly wanted.

Jenny was staying at a hotel under the Johns Group, a comfortable and well-arranged accommodation set up by Waylon himself.

When he called her, informing her that he needed to see her, Jenny readily agreed. As soon as Waylon and Evie arrived, she welcomed them into the living room.

“Waylon, Evie, you two are actually together?” Jenny arched a brow as she shut the door behind them.

Waylon didn’t waste time with pleasantries.

“Jenny, I hope you can be upfront with Evie about the kind of relationship we have.”

“What kind of relationship?” Jenny frowned, confused by the sudden interrogation, but when she turned her gaze to Evie, she instantly caught onto the strange tension hanging between them.

“Oh,” she murmured, her lips curving into a knowing smile.

“I see what’s going on here.”

She turned to Evie, speaking with deliberate clarity.

“Waylon and I are business partners and good friends, nothing more. If you’re feeling uneasy because we’ve worked together before, you don’t have to be.” Jenny stepped closer, her smile warm and reassuring.

“I’ve always known that Waylon has feelings for you. He’s never looked at anyone else the way he looks at you.”

To make her point even clearer, Jenny didn’t hesitate to bring up something personal. She pulled out her phone and, with a few quick taps, revealed a picture on her screen.

“This is my type. Completely different from Waylon.”

Evie leaned in, expecting to see some unfamiliar face, but the moment her eyes landed on the photo, she stiffened. Waylon, standing beside her, pinched the bridge of his nose in embarrassment.

“Jenny, I should probably mention that Evie already knows Laurin. And, well… I only just found out today that Laurin is actually a woman.”

“What?”

Jenny’s eyes widened in shock. She turned to Evie, searching her face for confirmation.

When Evie gave a small, awkward nod, Jenny could only stare at the screen in disbelief. Laurinda’s striking features, the flawless angles of her face, the confident yet graceful air about her—it was hard to process. Even with Waylon and Evie standing here telling her the truth, she struggled to believe it. But she also knew neither of them would lie to her.

“This is… unreal,” Jenny muttered, shaking her head as she studied the photo again.

Evie watched her, unsure of what to say. But Jenny recovered quickly, snapping her attention back to the matter at hand.

“Alright,” she said, locking eyes with Evie.

“So, do you believe now that there’s nothing between Waylon and me?”

Evie hesitated before nodding. She glanced at Jenny, then at Waylon, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed.

Jenny, observing the subtle shifts between them, smirked knowingly. Oh, something good was definitely going to happen between these two.

“Well, since I’ve cleared things up for you, why don’t you two go out for a walk? I think I need some time to digest all of this myself.” It was a playful push, but an effective one. Waylon gave Jenny a small nod before turning to take Evie away.

Jenny walked them to the door, watching as they made their way to the elevator. But just as they were about to step inside, she suddenly called out, “Wait a minute!”

Both Waylon and Evie turned back, curious. Jenny, still holding her phone, smiled faintly.

“I just remembered something. And I think you should hear it.” She tilted her head thoughtfully.

“Waylon, do you remember that one night in Mila? You were in a terrible mood, and you dragged me to Fashion Square, drinking yourself into oblivion?”

Waylon nodded.

“Yeah.”

Jenny continued, “You drank the entire night. I tried to stop you, but I failed. And then, at some point, I turned my head and saw Evie. At the time, I had no idea you two knew each other, so I just watched as she left. Later, when I brought you back to your place, you kept saying her name in your sleep. Over and over again.”

Jenny let that sink in before offering the two one last smile. Without another word, she turned and gently shut the hotel room door behind her.
