?Chapter 776:


    Evelyn hadn’t entered this marriage to be ignored. She was resolute in her aim to capture Jeffry’s heart. She knew this situation could not persist.


    With resolve, Evelyn made up her mind to confront Jeffry at his office the following day to unearth the reasons behind his prolonged absences—was it really just work, or perhaps someone else had captivated his interest? The thought only fueled her growing irritation.


    Following a night devoid of sleep, Evelyn meticulously applied foundation and concealer the next morning to mask her under-eye circles. Once fully prepared, she made her way to Jeffry’s office.


    Before they were married, Evelyn had frequently dropped by Jeffry’s workce. After theirvish beachside wedding, she was widely recognized there as Mrs. Harper.


    Upon her arrival, the receptionist offered a warm wee, saying, “Mrs. Harper, are you here to see Mr. Harper today?”


    d in an elegant gown, Evelyn returned the greeting with a poised smile. “Yes, indeed.”


    She reached into her bag and produced a box of elegantly wrapped candies. “I’ve been swamped and haven’t managed to visit. I thought I’d bring some of our wedding candies to share.”


    The receptionist expressed her delight, “Oh, thank you, Mrs. Harper! Congrattions again on your wedding! Here’s to many joyful years ahead! You and Mr. Harper really are a wonderful pair!”


    Evelyn responded with a smile, “Thank you. I’m heading up now.”


    “Please, after you,” the receptionist said warmly, pushing the elevator button for her.


    Once Evelyn left, the receptionists gathered around, buzzing with admiration.


    “Mrs. Harper is truly thoughtful, bringing us candies like that!”


    “She really is genuine and soft-spoken.”


    “With his youth, good looks, and wealth, Mr. Harper is quite a catch. And Mrs. Harper, with her grace and poise, matches him perfectly.”

    Evelyn’s distribution of candies won her widespread acim among the employees of Halver Group, a testament to how small, thoughtful acts could make a big impact.


    Upon entering, Evelyn caught the attention of Elvin Craig, Jeffry’s assistant, who was preparing to update on his tasks. “Miss Morgan, what brings you here today?” he inquired.


    Evelyn’s face momentarily clouded over upon hearing how he addressed her. Maintaining a seemingly warm smile that masked her actual emotions, she corrected him, saying, “Elvin, remember, I’m your boss’s wife. Isn’t it time you stopped calling me Miss Morgan?”


    Caught off guard, Elvin paused for a moment. Despite his role as Jeffry’s assistant, he was more acquainted with Jeffry’s dealings with Lydia and his contractual rtionship with Evelyn. He subconsciously still saw Evelyn’s connection with Jeffry as strictly professional, thus the address as Miss Morgan.


    Elvin quicklyposed himself and amended his mistake. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Harper. It was an unintentional oversight.”


    “Mistakes happen. Just ensure this one doesn’t ur again,” Evelyn said, her tone sharp and clear, ensuring Elvin understood the gravity of her words. Elvin, aware of his boss’s personal and professional lives, likely didn’t prioritize Evelyn due to Jeffry’s frequent absences.


    Evelyn figured Elvin skipped calling her Mrs. Harper because Jeffry hadn’t been around much, and his assistant probably didn’t see her as someone who mattered. By calling it a mistake, she gave him a quiet nudge—a reminder to treat her with more respect next time.
