Chapter 782
Now that Evelyn had caught up with him, Colton turned and looked over. He had a gloomy complexion and there
was a cold aura in his gaze as he stared at her.
Such a sight left Evelyn feeling guilty, so she gritted her teeth and pitifully said, "Collie, why are you looking at me
like that?"
Disgust flashed in his eyes as he answered coldly and bluntly, "Don't show up in front of my grandpa again."
She instantly turned pale and tears started to form in her eyes as she looked at him. "What have I done, Colton?"
she asked aggrievedly. "You seem to hate me a lot."
Although Evelyn looked pitiful, Colton did not feel anything for her. He answered with a cold tone, "Evelyn Wrenn, it's
impossible between us."

courage all of a sudden, raised her head to look at Colton.
"Collie, we've known each other since childhood. Not to mention, the Wrenn Family and the Gardner Family are
business acquaintances. There will be nothing but benefits if we are a couple."
He couldn't help thinking about the event that happened when he was a child as he looked at the pitiful woman in
front of him.
However, after what he experienced the last time, Colton knew that the person in front of him was no longer the
innocent person he remembered when he was a child. She seemed to have grown into someone who schemed a
lot.
"I have someone whom I like," he explained with a flat tone.
Evelyn bit her lower lip. She knew that he fancied Nicole and jealousy flashed in her eyes as she raised her head.
"Collie, about William's matter, Old Mr. Benedict won't allow you to be with Nicole. Didn't you have the hots for
Sasha back then? You eventually overcame your feelings for her in the end. So, I can wait. I can wait until you no
longer love Nicole."
"That's enough," he interrupted her soliloquy.
There was an obvious coldness in his dark pupils as he met Evelyn's eyes. After a split second, he finally broke the
silence. "No matter whom I am with, it has nothing to do with you."
Tears swam in Evelyn's eyes suddenly. She sniffled with pity on her face as she queried, "Collie, why did this happen
between us? We used to be so good together. I remember that I saved you when we were younger—"
Due to Colton's impatience, he turned to face Evelyn. The corner of his mouth suddenly turned upward to reveal a
sneer before he interrupted, "Evelyn Wrenn, judging from the fact that you saved me, I won't care about the tricks
you tried to pull on me over the years. After you spiked the medicine, your saving me won't come into play

Her face paled at his words. Whenever he ignored her in the past, she would bring up their childhood to evoke his
guilt so that he would acknowledge her.
However, the current Colton was a different man, who didn't seem to care at all…
Evelyn's face paled even more at that point as her lips twitched. She squeezed her bag with both hands as her
feigned ignorance disappeared at that moment.
She bit her lip again and was about to say something when his cold expression forced her words down her throat. It
was enough to render her silent.
He reached out to open the car door and forced his voice down. "Where do you live? I'll send you back?"
It was all that he had in him to prevent himself from snapping at her.
Colton had a good relationship with Gabriel, so even though he hated what Evelyn did, he wouldn't sever his
relations with Evelyn just yet because of the Wrenn Family.
Moreover, there was some explanation that Benedict needed to do.
