While at The Valley.
When Evelyn returned to the living room, Oscar was already waiting—though not very patiently. The moment he saw her, his eyes narrowed in concern.
"Are you okay, Eve? Why do you look so worried?" he asked, his voice softer than his usual teasing tone.
Evelyn sat down opposite him, smoothing her hair back as a small smile formed on her lips.
"Yeah, I'm okay. I just... told Axel about Blake Martinez."
Oscar's expression darkened instantly. Not because he was angry with Evelyn for telling Axel, but because he was angry with Martinez's family for their evilness.
"That bastard Martinez is really courting death."
Evelyn huffed. "His whole family is rotten. I heard they're involved in smuggling and illegal businesses. They just hide everything under a shiny, respectable disguise."
"Well, my friend, I'm the one who told you that." Oscar chuckled.
Evelyn blinked, then laughed. "Ah, sorry, bro. I forgot. Your database brain is clearly superior."
