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

Chapter 254 The Birth of Evelyn

To be honest, even if Vincent went to war with the Lan family because of Garland's behavior, it was understandable.

That was a sudden loss of goods worth 3 billion yuan, and they had to pay the buyer three times the total amount. The financial loss was a small matter, but the Si family's reputation and prestige in the arms industry suffered a severe blow.

Vincent could only swallow this loss, after all, the private sale of arms was expressly prohibited in the Northern Continent.

"Go back to the Si family."

Vincent came to his senses with a cold look and walked straight towards the car not far away.

"Sir, shall we not go to the harbor to take a look?"

Enzo touched his nose and caught up with Vincent.

"The goods are gone. What are you going to see? Are you going to see how your bunch of losers can bring shame to our Si family?"

Vincent's cold voice floated into Enzo's ears. Enzo wrapped his coat tightly and shut his mouth obediently.

Evelyn, who kept looking back out of worry about Vincent, was forcefully stuffed into the car by Garland. The moment Ollie and Garland sat down, the car started and sped away from this bustling area.

"Why did you intercept Vincent's munitions?"

Evelyn subconsciously moved a distance away from Garland and spoke indifferently.

"Why, he gave you dividends?"

Garland raised his eyebrows and looked at Evelyn with a gloomy face.

"boring."

Evelin was speechless and wanted to roll her eyes. When did Garland become so good at scolding people?

“Keep your distance from him.”

"Otherwise, next time he will lose more than just the munitions."

Garland picked up the goblet and shot a warning look at Evelyn through the glass.

"Then don't blame me for turning my back on you."

Evelin narrowed her eyes and sneered.

Garland was already very dissatisfied with Evelyn's excessive enthusiasm for Vincent compared to himself. When he heard her confront him so sharply, the anger that had just been suppressed could not help but rise again.

The atmosphere in the small carriage suddenly became tense. The two men stared at each other with swords drawn, and it seemed as if a war would break out in the next second.

"Alright, alright, we should be happy today because we took down an important hideout of Ares! No more quarreling."

Ollie saw that the situation was not right and quickly spoke up to ease the atmosphere. Evelyn glanced away and ignored Garland.

Garland seemed to be extremely angry. He didn't want to bow his head first and remained silent. Suddenly, the car fell into endless silence.

Let's make some noise! ​​Who will care about you two?

The villain in Ollie's heart was complaining and going mad. Besides him, who else in the world would care so much about the relationship between Garland and Evelyn!

Glancing at Evelyn's back, who didn't want to see him, Garland's eyes dimmed a little, and the words stuck in his throat could no longer be spoken, so he could only move his gaze back to the computer screen.

Evelin just felt uncomfortable with Garland staring at her back, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she felt the burning gaze disappear.

She looked at the trees and tall buildings speeding past outside the car window. The colorful lights were shining everywhere, forming a dazzling halo in her eyes.

Evelin felt dazzled and dizzy as she watched, and gradually she could no longer hold on and leaned against the glass window and fell into a shallow sleep.

In her dream, Evelyn felt that her whole body was floating lightly in the void, surrounded by countless fragments of her and Garland's past memories.

From her birth into this world as Lilith, to their meeting and knowing Vincent.

Then, when she grew up as a young girl, she fell in love with Vincent, and they tortured each other. Garland's paranoia and madness were intertwined as a result, and Lilith's life came to an end from then on.

All of Lilith's memories were shattered into countless pieces and scattered all over the world. She drifted in the wind with these pieces, waiting for her master who would never come back.

It was unknown whether it was several decades or hundreds of years that passed, but Evelyn saw that some of Lilith's memory fragments were combined together, wrapped in a beam of golden light and landed in front of the gate of Lanburg.

She was born on a night ravaged by a snowstorm, and found Shuslan Castle with the remaining breath of Lilith.

Evelin’s expression was stunned, she had never seen these memories before, even after drinking Vincent’s blood and recalling her life as Lilith, she had never known a single thing.

Soon, Evelyn saw the door of Lanburg being pushed open, and Edward, who had a strong figure, appeared in front of her.

Edward looked at the naked child at the door and an expression of pity immediately appeared on his face.

He quickly picked up the child and brought her into the room, wrapped her up in a thick coral fleece blanket, and sat down next to the fireplace with her in his arms before he felt relieved.

Edward looked at the baby's cheek carefully. Her skin was as white as snow and even more delicate than porcelain.

The azure eyeballs were like fireflies all over the sky, twinkling with starlight.

Her rosy little mouth curved into a brilliant arc, and she stopped crying when she saw Edward's face, as if she was very close to him.

"She looks so much like my Liz..."

"God have mercy on me...God have mercy on me..."

Edward held the baby carefully, tears welling up in his pupils uncontrollably, but the corners of his lips were curved upwards.

Evelyn then realized that this was decades after the Battle of Anders.

Lilith's grandmother, the woman who had been elegant and calm all her life, died in the war, and her mother, Princess Elly, died young.

Father Ron had numerous injuries from years of fighting and was at an age when he should have been enjoying his retirement, but because of the battle with Anders he took up his sword again and went back to the battlefield.

Having lost his son and daughter, he became depressed after the end of the Battle of Anders. Eventually, he fell ill and died in bed.

Garland, whose life was saved by Lilith, was sleeping in his bedroom.

No one knew if he would wake up, let alone if he was still alive.

It seemed as if overnight, Edward's son and daughter-in-law were all gone, his wife who had been with him for half his life was also gone, his granddaughter who was doted on by the whole family died, and his grandson was unknown whether he was alive or dead.

From then on, Prince Lancaster was the only one left in the entire Lancaster family, guarding this huge family business alone, and Garland, whose life or death was unknown.

Therefore, after seeing the baby who looked exactly like Lilith, Edward burst into tears. He, who never believed in fate, murmured, "God, have mercy on this lonely old man."

Willing to send Lilith back to him.

Evelyn wiped the sore corners of her eyes, and her heart ached inexplicably when she saw Edward with half of his hair white, holding the baby with a bitter smile and tears.

It turned out that no one knew how lonely Edward was and how much he had endured. No one cared about how he struggled through the days when he was the only one left in the Lan family.
