Chapter 211

Felicity Valentine's expression darkened instantly, a flash of cruelty flickering in her eyes. Her fists clenched so tightly her nails dug into her palms.

"Since you're being so uncooperative, Miss Roland," she sneered, waving her phone, "this video will go viral."

Olivia Valdemar shot to her feet, shielding Evelyn Roland. "You wouldn't dare!"

Felicity smirked and suddenly shoved Olivia. Evelyn's pupils constricted in alarm.

"Watch out!"

Olivia staggered backward, losing her balance. Water erupted as she plunged into the pool. Without hesitation, Evelyn dove in after her.

Amid the splashing water, Evelyn caught Olivia's back. But then—a vivid streak of red bloomed in the water.

"The baby..." Olivia's face drained of color, her fingers clawing at Evelyn's sleeve.

Chaos erupted. Screams pierced the air. Phones were whipped out.

"Silence!" Evelyn's voice cut through the noise like a blade. "All men, out! Anyone filming will answer to the Valdemars!"

She carefully lifted Olivia onto the pool deck, her gaze sharp as a scalpel. "I need a needle!"

A pair of slender hands offered a brooch pin. Evelyn didn't even glance at the person, swiftly sterilizing the pin with a lighter.

The silver needle found its mark with precision. Olivia's moans gradually subsided. The crimson stain stopped spreading. Only then did Evelyn's tense shoulders relax slightly.

"You're safe now," she murmured, only to notice Olivia's wide-eyed stare fixed behind her.

Evelyn turned.

And met the fathomless gaze of Sebastian Valdemar.
