Rewriting My Heart's Fate (Ethan and Evelyn) novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58 

“Do you trust me, Lyla?” 

Lyla nodded vigorously. “Of course. You have my utmost trust, Evel 

I smiled and reached out to fix her hair. “Then trust me, I’ll make them pay for what they did to you, but not right now. Can you wait? I looked into her eyes as I spoke 

Lyla leaned in and whispered, “Are you going to fight them as well?” 

“knock them out,” Isaid quietly, looking at her. 

“Seriously? Do you need any help Mhould go buy some pepper spray later.” 

Lyla was always such an optimistic and cheerful person. She was also always so considerate of my feelings. I shook my head and told her to wait for me. 

Later on, Ethan brought Leah out of the mediation room. Leah stood in front of me, and even though she looked innocent and pitiful on the surface, her eyes held a subtle defiance that belied her fragile facade. 

I was deceived by her demure, saintly appearance in my previous life, but not anymore. “I’m here to apologize on Lyla’s behalf.” 

“It’s okay.” Leah smiled, tugging at Ethan’s sleeve. “I’m sure she d 

didn’t mean to hurt me.” 

“I’ve already apologized “Ignoring Leah’s Insincere words, I turned to look at Ethan “Can I go now?” Despite my question, I tamed and called out to Lyla without waiting for his response. 

When I turned around, I didn’t notice the conflicted look on Ethan’s face or hear him tell Leah, “Please don’t cause any more trouble, Leah” 

I took Lyla back to the house 1 had purchased 1 chose this place because it was fully furnished, allowing me to move in right away. 

A while ago, when I had some free time, I also personalized it with some new furniture and decor. This was the first time I was coming over since completing the makeover. 

As soon as she stepped inside, placouldn’t help but exclaim, “This place looks amazing, Eve! I love it!” 

Lyla then changed her shoes and dashed into the living room to hug the fluffybonny stuffed animal on the sofa. 

I switched on the lights by the door and went into the kitchen to boil some water. “I’m glad you like it. The room on the right side of the hallway is all yours. Feel free to check it 

“You prepared a room for me?” she squealed. “I’m going to check it out right now!” 

I fumed to look at her and couldn’t help but smile. After showing her around, we snuggled up on the couch, watching films and having a heart–to–heart. As night fell, I told Lyla I’d make her dinner and headed to the kitchen. 

When I brought the food to the table, the smile on her face disappeared. She looked at the home–cooked meal on the table and teared up. 

“Why didn’t you get a housekeeper, Eve? Why are you doing the cooking yourself?” 

I was aware that her abrupt change in mood was because she cared about me. After all, I’d never cooked a day in my life.
