Save Her Lose Us (Evangeline and Soren) novel Chapter 284

"Mr. Glenn? To what do I owe the pleasure? Calling so late, it must be important." Finn's voice instantly reverted to its usual flippant tone.

Glenn got straight to the point. "I want to know your true intentions with Evangeline."

Finn's eyebrows rose. "That's a rather serious accusation, Mr. Glenn. Why assume I have an agenda? Can't a man simply admire a woman for who she is?"

"It doesn't matter whether you're using her or you admire her," Glenn said, his voice flat. "I just need you to protect her until I get back."

Finn didn't agree immediately. "I'm curious, in what capacity are you asking this of me?" It wasn't that he saw Glenn as a threat; he was just enjoying the game. He'd done his homework on Evangeline's past, which included her circle of friends. Glenn's background was hard to dig into, but Finn had managed to uncover a few key details. And everything he found pointed to one conclusion: Glenn was in love with her.

UME had started with just the two of them, back when the Whitmore family was on the decline. With his resources, Glenn could have partnered with anyone, yet he chose her. Even the company's name—UME—was a dead giveaway. You. Me.

When Evangeline got married and UME faced turmoil, Glenn had secured foreign investment and moved operations overseas, nearly falling out with investors who wanted him to change the company name. The moment Evangeline's divorce was final, he had returned, risking everything. The reason seemed obvious.

"As family," Glenn's voice cut through his thoughts. "The kind of family that wants to see her safe and happy, always."
