Chapter 1241: Chapter 1238: Her Body and Heart Belong to Eva Nightingale!
Betrothal gift? Eliana didn’t expect the betrothal gift to arrive so quickly.
She didn’t know that Eva Nightingale had already gone to the Sovereign Empire for a secret marriage. If she knew her own daughter was hiding such a thing from her, she would surely be furious, as marriage is a significant matter.
Which parent would want their child to marry so hastily?
"Accept it." How could the goodwill of the President of Country Z be repeatedly refused? Liam Coldwell was really passionate about Eva.
On this trip, Eliana heard that back when it was about Eva, Liam Coldwell even placed Sophie Linwood under house arrest and didn’t let her step into Coldwell Gardens for a whole month.
...
The next day.
The afternoon in New York was overcast.
Eva went out to go to a spa in the New York City Center.
As soon as she got out of the car, she saw a familiar figure. The figure of a woman in sportswear magnified in her pupils, and Eva frowned displeasedly, "Jasmine, didn’t I tell you not to bother me?"
She was always stern with her subordinates.
"Forgive me, Miss." To avoid being recognized, Jasmine deliberately wore sports clothes. Her tall figure and short hair still couldn’t hide her intense assassin aura.
Maybe she was too dull, with murdering only in her eyes; even after a disguise, her lethal air was still overwhelming.
She didn’t have a hint of innocence or cuteness on her.
In fact, Jasmine had light purple eyes and a tall figure. She was used to being serious; her voice unexpectedly sounded a bit neutral and very seductive.
With short hair, if she really hid her chest, one might not be able to tell her gender!
"Madam is urging Miss to return. I’m not here to take Miss back, but please consider, a year is too long. If possible, I hope Miss returns to Eastern Europe sooner." Jasmine spoke briefly, getting straight to the point.
"Miss, you aren’t truly in love, are you?"
Jasmine teasingly thought: "Miss, the Young Master treats you well, Master Yi treats you well, Jasmine also cares for you well, why go to the Sovereign Empire?"
Eva was irritated by her advice.
She rummaged in her bag for a long time, holding a cigarette butt but refrained from taking it out to smoke.
For preparing for pregnancy, she had already quit smoking.
In the future, she won’t touch cigarettes at all!
"Jasmine, just help me cover it up when you go back. How could I possibly be in love?" Even though he’s handsome, it’s not enough to trap myself hopelessly!!
"Yes... Miss." Jasmine agreed, then watched Eva walk into the spa.
As an assassin, she was ruthless and loyal, her body and soul belonged to her master. Therefore, her body and soul wholly belonged to Eva, only to Eva, even if it meant her head, she would offer it willingly.

The whole afternoon passed like this.
Eva left the spa in the evening.
Half an hour later, she returned to her villa in the affluent neighborhood.
Isabel Grant was in the living room, saying to her, "Eva, the Coldwell Family’s celebration is coming soon. They’ve sent an invitation; you’ll attend as the Young Madam of the Knight Clan."
"Additionally, the authority of the mistress at Lanwan Residence will be passed to you."
Isabel spoke kindly, sincerely accepting Eva.
Eva felt rare guilt: "..." What if, after the divorce 11 months later, the elders find out? Would it be a huge blow?!
Eva refused: "Thank you, Madam, but I... I think it’s better if you continue as the mistress. I just got married here, and if I immediately become the head at Lanwan Residence, the rest of the uncles and aunts certainly won’t let it slide."
