Chapter 198 Another wave occurs
He also didn’t want to mention to Evelin what he and Huo Wanqing had talked about.
At that time, Huo Wanqing called him out of the meeting room alone, and there was no more evidence at all.
Instead, he told her her identity directly.
"Garland, the misunderstanding between you and me has become deeper and deeper. I think it's more appropriate to say some things out loud."
Garland frowned, not understanding what tricks Huo Wanqing was trying to play.
"I thought that maybe you have someone you truly love in this life. Even if I remember it, I should take the truth to the grave."
"After all, no matter in this life or the last, I love you, and it is because of my love that I am willing to fulfill your wish."
Huo Wanqing's next words caused Garland's eyes to change suddenly. She chuckled inwardly, thinking that the foreshadowing was almost complete.
"What's the meaning!"
Seeing that Huo Wanqing stopped talking, Garland stared at her tearful eyes, as if he wanted to see something in her eyes.
"Once you know the truth about some things, you can't go back."
Huo Wanqing met Garland's impossibility gaze, and looked back at him, imitating what she thought was Lilith's expression.
No one has ever seen Lilith, except Edward. Even Garland now only has a vague understanding of her, so vague that it can be ignored.
So she studied and practiced Lilith's every move, expression and eyes very seriously.
Even though it was all hearsay, she had absolute confidence and her acting was very convincing.
Sure enough, Garland's shocked pupils indirectly proved what Huo Wanqing was thinking.
Garland just felt that it was impossible, absolutely impossible.
However, Huo Wanqing's stubbornness and tenacious eyes seemed so familiar to him.
At this moment, it seemed that the face in the dream that was always covered with a layer of mist began to become clear.
Until their eyes overlapped with Huo Wanqing's.
He completely forgot that he was once 90% sure that Huo Wanqing was the girl he had been looking for in his dreams.
And the remaining point was the proof he got by luck.
So he found all kinds of reasons to prove that Huo Wanqing was not that person at all.
Today, the moment Huo Wanqing looked at herself like this, the last bit of thought disappeared completely.
"Gallan, do you recognize me?"
Huo Wanqing was very satisfied with Garland's reaction. When he was most conflicted, she dropped a bombshell on him.
"What did you say…?"
Garland stared at her blankly, muttering something.
"It seems that you didn't listen to me and didn't wait for me."
Huo Wanqing looked calm, but her tone was filled with disappointment.
"You are…"
"It's me. I'm always here with you."
Huo Wanqing nodded, and slowly put her jade hands on Garland's eyebrows and caressed them.
"You are really her, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Garland shook his head and couldn't believe it.
But everything he had investigated before, including the unusually familiar feeling that Huo Wanqing gave him after they met, all came flooding back to him.
It completely devoured his remaining sanity.
"Perhaps there really is some kind of connection between us. Even though you forgot your promise in this life, you still found me."
Huo Wanqing did not answer, but Garland naturally understood what she was saying.
It was he who escaped from the pile of dead bodies in the underworld to the southern continent and was rescued by Huo Wanqing.
“I have wanted to make it clear with you countless times, but seeing your feelings for Evelin becoming more and more precious.”
"I just couldn't bear to speak."
"Because I can't bear to see the person I've loved for two lifetimes stuck in this dilemma."
"I decided to keep it secret until I die."
"Then why are you saying it now?"
"Since you've decided to keep it secret, why are you saying it out now?"
Garland felt a little overwhelmed. It was so hard for him and Evelyn to be together again.
Just one step away...
"I was forced into this situation. I want to use this method to ask you to enforce the law impartially and let my sister rest in peace."
Huo Wanqing looked at Garland's angry and helpless expression, her heart and eyes filled with pain.
"Even if you think I'm blackmailing you, this is the only way I can do."
"Everyone can see that you have been protecting Evelyn."
"But if you are willing to agree to me, I will do your thing in exchange."
“You can pretend that what happened in the last life never happened, marry Evelin, have children, and live happily together.”
"I won't mention it to anyone, and I will never bother you again."
Huo Wanqing retreated to advance, and chose to give in because of her love for Garland.
But every word reveals reluctance and helplessness.
"So, I promise you, we are even now."
Garland looked up at Huo Wanqing, who looked as gentle as ever.
Even if doing so would label him ungrateful and abusive.
He also couldn't bear to leave Evelyn.
"Yes."
Huo Wanqing nodded solemnly, with a hint of determination in her eyes.
At this moment, she actually felt that what Evelin said was right, she was too suitable for acting.
Is a natural actor.
Garland's fingers were suddenly burned by the burning cigarette butt, and the sudden pain brought him back to reality.
He tugged at his tie randomly and leaned back in a somewhat dejected manner.
His mind was in a mess, and everything was gradually out of his control.
This feeling made him want to go crazy.
But no matter what, he decided to tell Evelin his plan first.
He didn't want to create any more rifts with Evelyn because of these trivial matters.
"Bring the little prince here."
Garland's deep voice sounded, and the servants waiting outside the door immediately took action after hearing the order.
"Brother, it's not good!"
"Something happened!"
Suddenly, Yuri rushed into the study in a panic.
Garland straightened up and motioned for him to continue.
"After the party today, one of the guests went home and started feeling unwell."
"After he was sent to the hospital, he was diagnosed with an infectious disease he had never seen before. A doctor who knew about it said it was the LE virus."
"It's all going viral outside right now. What was said a few days ago was not a rumor. It was... you who brought back the virus and caused the guests to be infected."
"The people are denouncing the Lan family and want an explanation."
At the same time, Evelin, who had just passed by the living room, also had her pupils tremble after hearing Oli come over to report this sudden incident.
"what?!"
"Are you sure he was infected with the virus after he left the Lan family?"
Evelin spoke, her eyes dark and filled with gloom.
"I'm not sure, but if they all bite to death, it's the Lan family's problem."
"The public also believed it. After all, there were rumors some time ago that my eldest brother was infected with the LE virus."
Oli shook his head and reported everything he had just investigated in one breath.
