Evangeline didn't react to his hold.
"Brandon, you have crossed your limit now," Justin said, and Liam and Ethan immediately stepped ahead protectively, pulling Evangeline backward towards them with her good hand, making Brandon lose his hold on her neck.
"Do you think just because we are not saying anything, we are afraid of you? Do you want to bring it on?" Aaron walked to them.
The environment started to become heated, but Evangeline's gaze didn't waver from Brandon who was looking at her with a knowing glint.
"I am fine, guys. Thank you. Let me handle it," Evangeline smiled at her friends.
"So you know my name, but you don't know me?" Brandon called her out for her earlier slip-up, and Evangeline smiled before stepping ahead.
"And now you have gotten new friends to protect you so you are going to forget me? How mean of you, Evangeline," Brandon said, and she scoffed.
