Chapter 187
Evelyn followed Lucas to sit down. Sophia over there had talked with Envy again.
"Envy, when you come here this time, you must stay a few days longer. It is said that you have taken over the company during this time? If you happen to have any problems in your company, you can let Lucas to help you." Sophia was really willing to create a chance for the two to get along.
She said, not forgetting to look at Lucas with warning: "Lucas, did you hear what I just said?"
Lucas nodded and said helplessly, "I see."
Evelyn looked at all indifferently. She couldn't help sneering.
It was just endless.
Even if at first she didn't understand Sophia's intention of letting them come, she understood now.
In particular, there was Amelia.
The irony in her eyes was even greater when she thought about it, but she soon covered and ate quietly.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Sophia, looking at Evelyn who was calm, frowned slightly.
Guessing Evelyn was pretending to be generous, she didn't pay any more attention. She entertained Envy warmly and asked about her family.
"Just now I heard you say you're starting to take over the company. Is your father going to retire and enjoy the life?"
Envy replied with a smile: "Almost. He said he has worked hard for most of his life. It's time to rest and take my mother around the world by the way."
When Sophia heard this, she couldn't help joking: "your parents are still as affectionate as ever, which makes us envy. When you were a child, you and Lucas also got along well with each other. You often chased him and asked him to take you to play." Envy was shy to hear her mention of childhood.
"Sophia, it has very long time. How can you tease me now?"
Sophia laughed, and then said a few interesting things about childhood, which completely ignited the atmosphere.
However, comparing with their hot chat, Evelyn's side would be much colder.
After dinner, Lucas originally planned to take Evelyn back. Who knew that Sophia left Lucas with a sentence directly. "Lucas, it is the first day for Envy to stay here. And you are the master. How can you not accompany?"
After she said that, she deliberately looked at Evelyn and continued, "You two probably haven't been together for a long time since last time. You should have a lot to say to Envy. You should accompany Envy, so as not to let the Envy talk to me the old woman about some nutritious household chores."
Lucas couldn't refuse and looked sideways at Evelyn.
Evelyn did know that was arranged by Sophia intentionally. If she persisted in leaving, she was afraid that Sophia would take the opportunity to say she was narrow-minded.
She curved the corners of her mouth and said with a smile, "since mom said that, let's stay for a while."
Lucas nodded and then motioned Envy to speak in the living room.
Envy nodded and followed him to the living room.
During this period, she passed by Evelyn, and her eyes flashed with meaningful light.
Evelyn didn't find out. She looked at the back of two people one before the other. She was uncomfortable for no reason, but she soon ignored.
But she didn't care. Sophia saw it.
Her eyes flashed with pride.
That was what she wanted.
She walked past Evelyn with a snort. She told to Lucas that he must treat Envy well and then went back to her room for rest.
Evelyn watched her leave, then sat beside Lucas and listened to his conversation with Envy. However, she couldn't insert it.
Because they were talking about finance, which she didn't know at all.
It was frustrating and depressing for her.
It had been said before that Envy was different to Lucas.
Now she could see clearly Lucas's appreciation to Envy.
Although Envy was now the fashion editor in chief, she has also majored finance for family reasons, and she has achieved better achievements than these in fashion circle.
a result, she and Lucas had no problem to communicate. Even they were more and more appreciated each other.
The handsome man and the beautiful woman formed a harmonious picture which made her a little redundant, and even gave her a kind of illusion.
They were people from two worlds.
Evelyn thought of this, the uncomfortable feelings in his heart became more and more stronger and even she was sad and jealous.
She noticed her different feelings. Looking at the two people who were chatting with each other, she suddenly didn't want to stay here. "Lucas, I'm tired. I'll go back to room and rest." Lucas didn't think much about it. He nodded and said, "Be careful. I'll come back later."
Evelyn listened and felt some blockage in her heart, nodding randomly and going directly out of the living room.
And all of this was in the eyes of Lucy in the corner. She went upstairs with a smile to reply to Sophia.
Sophia was satisfied when she knew that Evelyn was the first to leave.
This was just an appetizer. Sooner or later, she would let the bitch know that she couldn't match her noble and extraordinary son.
...
Evelyn didn't know Sophia's intention was. She was absent-minded when she returned to the new house.
The picture of Lucas getting along with Envy just now flashed in her mind. Even when she said she was tired, he didn't care about her as usual. Wait...
Evelyn, what were you thinking about?
At this time, she finally realized that her mind was wrong.
All her thoughts just now were just like a jealous woman.
Be jealous?
How could she be jealous?
She would be separated from Lucas after a few months. From then on, they were strangers. She should not have these feelings and thoughts. Wake up, Evelyn!
She kept admonishing herself in her heart, but it had little effect.
Even it made her more and more uncomfortable. Especially when she thought that she would never see Lucas again. Her heart was like being bitten by ten thousand ants, which even made her ache when she breathe. Evelyn knew that it was not good to let herself go like this. She must find something to divert her attention and let her forget all these feelings.
She saw the drawing board on the worktable. She took it up to continue the unfinished drawing without thinking letting she concentrate on work.
At first, she was flustered and couldn't find the feeling. She even broke several pieces of manuscript paper, and then she gradually calmed down and sank into the state.
As she entered the state, those disturbing thoughts also faded and hid in the bottom of her heart.
However, even if Evelyn calmed down, she did not stop drawing.
Even though she was really sleepy at this time, she dared not go back to bed. Because she was afraid that once she lay in the bed full of memories, the emotions that she suppress hardly would come again. She forced herself to perfect and colour the design manuscripts one by one.
She didn't know how long it took. Her eyes became more and more blurred, and finally she couldn't insist, so she had nodded off over the desk and slept.
Before she went to sleep, she could not help but complain in her heart.
It was the middle of the night. Haven't they talked enough?
