Jackson was already pulling out a chair, looking way too pleased with the seating arrangement. "Well, look at that. Fate is a comedian."
Evelyn is leaning closer to Axel. "Did you plan this?"
A faint smile appeared on his lips. "I didn't have time to plan anything. But at the last minute, I asked Dylan to contact them and say I would attend the event."
'Ah, so Dylan is the culprit,' she thought, hiding a small laugh. He was indeed a thoughtful assistant... sometimes too thoughtful.
"Eve, sit down. You're drawing attention," Axel said softly, pulling out a chair beside him with effortless grace.
Evelyn didn't even get the chance to choose another seat; the name cards were already perfectly placed. There was no escape.
"Thank you, Mr. Knight," she said with a polite smile, lowering herself into the chair and smoothing her gown.
She couldn't believe this charity dinner would become her first public appearance with her husband.
