Save Her Lose Us (Evangeline and Soren) novel Chapter 272

Just moments after Evangeline drove away from the real estate agency, a luxury sedan glided to a smooth stop at the curb.

The window lowered, revealing Finn's handsome face.

He rested his head on his hand, his elbow propped on the car door, and glanced at the agency's rather shabby sign.

After a moment's thought, he opened the door and stepped inside.

Business was slow on a weekday. After seeing Evangeline out, the agent had immediately started venting in the office group chat.

When a colleague joked that he didn't know how to treat a lady, he sent back a vomiting emoji. "What lady? All polished on the outside, but for all we know, she's the kind who… well, you know. What decent woman would be willing to live in a place like that?"

Just then, he noticed someone at the door and lazily lifted his eyes.

His gaze swept over Finn, instantly recognizing the designer suit and expensive shoes. He shot up from his chair and hurried over.

"Sir," he said with a fawning smile, "are you looking to buy or rent?"

"The woman who was just in here," Finn asked, ignoring the question. "What did she want?"

The agent realized Finn was asking about Evangeline, and his enthusiasm instantly deflated.

He couldn't help but remember the last time this happened. Glenn had come in, also decked out in designer brands and looking loaded, only to rent a tiny, run-down apartment.

Was this guy planning to do the same thing? Renting a hovel just to be near Evangeline?

What was with these people? Was this some new trend for the rich?

He wouldn't even make enough on a place like that to cover a cup of coffee.

At that thought, the agent slumped back into his chair, his tone turning snide. "What do people come here for? Surely not to ask me on a date."

"You're not chasing after her too, are you? Let me give you some advice, buddy. Steer clear of women like that. They look all prim and proper, but who knows how many men they've been with behind closed doors."

"There's already some guy living next to her. They're together all the time…"

Before he could finish, Finn's foot shot out and kicked the leg of his chair.

The sudden move caught the man completely off guard. He toppled backward, landing flat on his back with his feet in the air.

A curse died on his lips as Finn planted a foot on his chest. In one swift, clean motion, Finn grabbed the back of his collar and hauled him up as easily as lifting a kitten.

The agent's face turned beet red as the collar choked him.

The commotion drew the attention of the other agents in the office, and several pairs of eyes turned their way. One person started to step forward, but froze, pinned in place by the icy, tangible force of Finn's glare.
