Heartthrob: The vampire princess doesn't want to be a stand-in

As she spoke, Evelin gracefully reached out and picked up the crystal glass on the table. Her eyes were focused on the crystal glass, and she looked so leisurely and contented, as if she was admiring a precious work of art.

Everyone was just surprised and had no idea what she was trying to do.

Then, Evelin raised the crystal cup high into the air, but her fingers suddenly loosened.

With a crisp "pop" sound, the crystal glass fell vertically and shattered on the smooth marble floor, making a shattering sound.

Evelin slowly squatted down under the surprised eyes of several people, and she didn't seem to mind being scratched at all.

He picked up a few pieces of glass without a care in the world, his eyes revealing nothing.

“Evelyn, be careful not to cut your hands!”

Garland immediately stretched out his hand nervously, trying to stop Evelin's movements.

This time, he did react much faster than Vincent.

Unexpectedly, Evelin avoided his outstretched hand and shook her head gently, indicating that she was fine.

Garland was unable to touch Evelin's hand and froze in mid-air awkwardly.

Evelyn placed the fragments on the table one by one, and soon, she had re-arranged the shape of the original bottom of the crystal glass.

"Do you think a broken mirror can be put back together?"

Evelin pointed at the fragments that still had traces even after being restored to their original state, and looked at the man opposite with empty eyes.

She seemed to have lost her soul. Her voice was low and calm, but it revealed a hint of helplessness.

"OK."

Garland stood there quietly, with a trace of painful self-blame in his eyes.

His voice was very soft, and he seemed to be trying hard to suppress his emotions.

He didn’t understand what Evelin wanted to do, but he felt a faint sense of crisis in his heart.

There seemed to be an invisible, intangible, and insurmountable gap between the two of them that prevented him from getting closer to Evelin.

Yes, it's like two pieces of glass forced together on the table.

"But even if we can get back together, there will always be irreparable scars."

The corners of Evelin's lips curled up, and she slowly moved her gaze away from Garland and onto the broken glass in front of her.

She raised her hand and touched the irreparable cracks.

Even though her fingers were cut by sharp fragments and blood was oozing out, she seemed to be completely unaware.

"These traces are the barriers between the two of us that can never be crossed."

Evelin shook her head gently, her pupils gradually filled with a faint mist as she looked at the table of fragments.

Her voice seemed a little choked, and it was obvious that she was holding back.

The most precious memories of her past emerged in her mind.

At that time, they supported each other, leaned on each other, and they only had each other.

However, the appearance of Huo Wanqing broke the calm on the surface, and she took root in Garland's heart.

It gradually took over all his emotions and controlled his mood.

Evelyn thought she had tried.

Try to forget everything that happened in the past and the hurt that Garland and Huo Wanqing brought her.

She tried desperately to be with Garland.

But what was the result? It only earned Garland's distrust.

When she snuggled in Garland's arms to gain a sense of security, she couldn't help but want to ask him in her mind, "Have you ever said sweet words to Huo Wanqing like this before?"

All these, one by one, are like a nightmare that follows you all the time.

No matter how she tried to avoid them, she couldn't control them or get rid of their presence.

Every time Garland said he loved her, she would think of how he had given up on her again and again because of Huo Wanqing.

"If that's the case, don't go back to the beginning."

“We can piece it back together to be more refined than before.”

Garland clenched his fists and finally swept away the debris on the table.

He never believed in fate or arrangement, he only firmly believed that everything was achieved through his own ability.

Including his love with Evelyn.

Even if Evelin felt that these words sounded so high-sounding and pale explanations.

He would still take action to win Evelyn's heart again.

Because for him at this moment, losing Evelyn was far more terrifying than anything else.

"It's up to you, but no matter how hard you try, there will be no results."

Evelin’s pupils turned cold, and there was no longer any ripple in her heart as she looked at the man in front of her whom she once loved deeply.

“Evelyn, you can only be mine.”

Garland stared at Evelyn's back as she walked away, clenching his fists tightly.

He believed that as long as he grabbed it and held it tightly in his hand, no one could take it away, and she would not be able to escape.

Vincent seemed to be hesitant to speak, and finally just shook his head and chose to leave.

He could help Evelin with everything except feelings, even if he wanted to, he was powerless.

After Huo Wanqing was taken back to the police station, she was kept in the observation room.

The police questioned her four or five times but still failed to get any useful information out of her.

Even though the ironclad evidence was right before her eyes, she watched the surveillance footage as she inserted the needle into Huo Youshan's neck.

Huo Youshan died struggling in agony.

She also kept her mouth shut and refused to admit that she did it.

"If you keep wasting time like this, the evidence of your crime will never be erased."

"Huo Wanqing, stop wasting each other's time."

Without Garland's pressure, Director Liu's words became much sharper, and he no longer had the respect for Huo Wanqing that he had when they were in the Lan family.

"I want to see my lawyer."

"Or have Garland come to see me."

Huo Wanqing had a blank expression on her face. After she said these two sentences coldly, she continued to lower her eyes and ponder without saying a word.

The entire observation room fell into endless silence again.

Director Liu seemed to have reached his limit. He angrily threw the documents in his hand on the table, turned around and walked out.

If it wasn't related to the Lan family, Garland would have ordered him to participate in person, otherwise, as a director, would he have to do such a thing in the middle of the night!

"It's been six hours! And apart from meeting with the lawyer and Lan Dian, I still can't get any useful questions!"

"I feed you guys for nothing!"

Chief Liu was furious at the group of police officers guarding outside the door, and his roar echoed throughout the corridor.

Since he is under pressure from above, he can only put pressure on his subordinates.

"Director Liu, the brothers did try their best."

"She's just wasting time like this. Besides, she has the identity of the head of the Huo family. We dare not do anything."

The leading officer, Officer Li, had a sad face and was full of complaints but had no place to vent.

Director Liu just felt angry, even though it was a foregone conclusion that Huo Wanqing was guilty.

But these officials certainly don't want to offend any wealthy nobles.
