Chapter 969 Don't Even Think About Pestering Me
Alivia looked at the gentle eyes and unconsciously softened her tone. "Hello, I'm Alivia Graves."
Evelyn gazed at the sight of the two figures standing close together. After all these years, she hadn't seen any
woman around Bert. Witnessing this scene, she felt a bit surreal. However, Alivia appeared young, probably in her
early twenties, with a beautiful and pure look. Sitting beside Bert, she resembled a harmless little white rabbit.
She couldn't help but find it interesting that such a woman could appear by Bert's side.
However...
Evelyn thought about the topic they had just discussed regarding the lawsuit involving Huston. Bert wanted to
advise her about it, as he knew the other party's capabilities. However, Evelyn rejected his suggestion, leading him
to believe that she wanted to keep her distance from him. But the truth was quite the opposite.
On this matter, the only thing she needed to do was to believe that Huston could handle it well.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThinking of this, Bert seemed to have seen through her mind and said, "Now, can you rest assured? I don't want to
help you out of my personal feelings for you. You don't have to avoid it."
Evelyn sighed helplessly. Instead of being annoyed by his misunderstanding, she was tolerant and patient. "I didn't
mean to avoid you. You really don't have to worry about this matter. I believe Huston can handle it well. But you
should worry more about your own business if you have time."
She smiled meaningfully at Alivia as she spoke, "You are the only woman who has appeared by his side in these
years."
Alivia opened her mouth but didn't know what had happened to Bert. She didn't even know his name until today.
She could only answer hesitantly, "Ah, really...?"
"Yes." Evelyn's gaze shifted between the two of them. She wanted to see something, but unfortunately, Bert was
skilled at disguising everything, and she couldn't discern anything. "Since you have someone to accompany you, I'll
leave first. My child is waiting for me at home. If you have time, come and visit him. Lucas misses you a lot."
Bert didn't look well. When Evelyn got up and was about to leave, he said, "Evelyn, it's not that simple. You must be
careful."
"I know." Evelyn comforted him. "Don't worry. I'll let you know as soon as I need you."
"Let me give you a ride."
"No need. You stay with Alivia." Evelyn walked to the door with her bag and waved at Alivia. "Let's get together
another time when we have the chance."
Alivia quickly got up, thinking it would be a tense situation between them as rivals, but now that the other party
suddenly became so agreeable, she felt a bit at a loss. "Goodbye," she said.
After the door was closed, the private room returned to silence.
Just when Alivia was about to breathe a sigh of relief, her body was pulled back to the sofa again. This time, she
was not as polite as before. Her neck was directly strangled. Although it was not strong, it was full of threats.
Alivia didn't even dare to breathe loudly. Looking at Bert in horror, she said, "Mr. Harper, you may not have gone

Just when she was cooperating with him in acting, barely moments after Evelyn left, he was already planning to
turn against her.
"How do you know I'm here?" Bert's voice was as cold as the wind in December, sharp enough to slice through a
person's face with a single word.
"It was the manager who told me." Alivia knew she could not deceive him, so she told the truth. "I came to ask you
one thing."
Speaking of the purpose of her visit, Alivia became serious. "Did you pay for my mother's surgery expenses?"
"No." Bert denied it without hesitation. His face was so gloomy that it could squeeze out water. "Don't think about
pestering me. You will regret it."
If she regarded him as a do-gooder with an overflow of sympathy in the past, she'd better reconsider and spare
herself the trouble.
He denied it, but Alivia did not believe him at all.
