Chapter 253 She’s not my future wife anymore!

New York Film Festival.

The venue’s decor had undergone some changes, but it had become even more luxurious.

They had only been inside for a moment when Calvin Turner approached. He first exchanged pleasantries with Evelyn, expressing his admiration for this rising star in the business world, then turned to Alice and asked, “Alice, you know Evelyn?”

Alice could only reply, “Of course, we’ve known each other for a while.” Find upd𝒂ted 𝒏ovels on n𝒐velbin(.)co/m

Evelyn also chimed in with a smile, “Mr. Turner, Alice and I are close friends. I even worked in her shop before. Please, just call me Evelyn from now on.”

Hearing Evelyn’s words, Calvin heartily responded, “It’s good to see young folks like you get along and support each other. In that case, Evelyn, if you ever run into any problems, don’t hesitate to reach out.”

“Thank you, I might need your assistance in the future,” Evelyn replied, her radiant smile contrasting with her previous reserved demeanor.

William observed silently. Evelyn’s transformation wasn’t surprising. After all, both Guinevere and Morgana were not ordinary individuals and had their ways of navigating social situations.

With just a few words, Evelyn seemed to have formed a small alliance with Calvin. If things went as planned, she wouldn’t need to use her Soulmancer abilities to thrive in the business world.

“Evelyn, I’ve heard that you’re the granddaughter of the late James Taylor. Is this true?” Calvin inquired with a hint of suspicion in his narrowed eyes. “I recall that James Taylor had previously transferred all his business dealings. Why have you made such a grand return?”

Calvin wasn’t entirely sure why the Taylor family had divested all their businesses, but he’d heard it was related to some past grudges, particularly after David Taylor’s death on Mount San Juan Teotihuaca. After that, the Taylor family became a target for many. The detailed reasons remained a mystery, as his own father had not elaborated.

Now, with Charles Turner gone, only a few old-timers like Anthony Carter might know the truth.

Of course, Evelyn couldn’t possibly be aware that James Taylor had instructed all members of the Taylor family to relinquish their businesses and go into seclusion solely because William’s and Scott’s son, David, had offended Timothy Hill on Mount San Juan Teotihuaca and met his end there. After news broke of William’s survival, the Taylor family was destined never to rise again.

Evelyn smiled and said, “The Taylor family might have stepped back, but now I’m running my own business.” Pausing for a moment, she asked, “Mr. Turner, I’m curious, why did our Taylor family suddenly withdraw before? Is it related to that Timothy Hill on Mount San Juan Teotihuaca?”

Calvin pondered for a moment before replying, “There might be a connection, but it surely isn’t just because David offended Timothy Hill.”

Evelyn blinked and responded, “Regardless of the reason, now I am my own person, and the Taylor family is separate. Mr. Turner, you won’t become an enemy of mine, will you?”

Calvin offered a slight smile and said, “Evelyn, I think you should pay a visit to the Carter family, particularly Mr. Carter. If he bears no ill will towards you, then we might become allies.”

“Anthony Carter?” Evelyn’s smile slowly faded. “Please relay a message to him for me, Mr. Turner: if he sees me as an enemy, he can come at me.”

Visit Anthony Carter?

Evelyn’s current strength was formidable, making her unafraid of any Soulmancer faction. While the Carter family might be wealthy, they seemed insignificant in her eyes.

She wasn’t even daunted by Timothy Hill of Mount San Juan Teotihuaca.

With over a thousand “demigods” at her command, who should she fear?

Scott had previously attempted to harm her mother. Yet, because of Evelyn’s status, didn’t he end up kneeling before her mother, apologizing?

Though she was just a woman, she was the legacy disciple of Hades. All the “demigods” of Maplewood Town regarded her as their leader.

Evelyn slightly released a bit of her energy aura, and this alone made Calvin feel an indescribable pressure. Her cold demeanor sent shivers down his spine.

Having faced countless challenges to get where he was today and having seen numerous scenes, Calvin had never imagined that a girl younger than his own daughter could exert such a powerful presence on him.

Alice was oblivious to all of this, but William coldly interjected, “Evelyn, you’d better watch your actions and words!”

“Hmm?” Evelyn looked at William with a hint of surprise, momentarily forgetting that William was associated with the 13th Bureau.

“I’ve heard that you’ve reached an agreement with Scott,” Evelyn replied. “Rest assured, I won’t cause trouble. But if someone challenges me, I have every right to retaliate, don’t I?” As she finished speaking, she retracted her energy aura, once again appearing as the harmless girl she once was.

Sweat trickled down Calvin’s back, but he still addressed Evelyn, “Don’t worry. I’ll convey your message to Mr. Carter.”

Alice stared at Evelyn, at a loss for words. She could sense that the Evelyn before her was no longer the timid girl from the past. The Evelyn now… seemed somewhat terrifying.

Calvin sneakily glanced at William. He knew William was also a Soulmancer, and not just any ordinary one. The fact that William’s single remark made Evelyn concede indicated that he might have the strength to protect Alice.

“You young folks chat, I won’t disturb any further.” Calvin no longer wanted to continue the conversation with Evelyn. The pressure was too intense.

“Mr. Turner, take care,” Evelyn replied with a faint smile, adding, “Rest assured, Alice and I have a good relationship.”

After Calvin left, Lucy couldn’t help but whisper to Evelyn, “Evelyn, you were so domineering just now.”

Evelyn simply raised an eyebrow and said, “Come, let me introduce you to your Timothée.”

“Sure!” Lucy felt that Evelyn had changed from before, becoming even more assertive. It was remarkable that she could stand toe-to-toe with a heavyweight like Russell.

Evelyn cast a glance at William, asking, “Are you both coming?”

William replied, “Sure, we’re free anyway.”

Evelyn turned her head, leading Lucy into the crowd and no longer paying attention to William.

She suspected that William might be the reincarnation of Arthur, but her mindset had experienced some subtle shifts.

Regardless of who William is, she shouldn’t diminish her stature.

Before, she was just a queen, but now she has the capability to become an empress!

If her power reached its peak, wouldn’t William know how to choose?

Currently, William is just a novice Soulmancer. He might still crave power.

Whatever William desires, she, Evelyn, can provide!

William stood with a cold face beside Alice. Alice gently tugged on William’s sleeve and whispered, “Master, your future wife, she…”

“She’s not my future wife anymore!” William retorted, his eyebrows raised. “Let’s go and meet this Timothée.”
