The Gorgeous Substitute Wife of Mr. President

Chapter 237



Thinking of this, Evelyn felt a twingle in her heart.

And in fact,it really was.

Envy had been a dearly beloved daughter ever since she was a baby,and she had not been beaten by anyone else.But yesterday she was just slapped in public,which had been known to all.How could her family members sit by idly and remain indifferent? "Is this your daughter-in-law?"

Envy's mother came to Evelyn with Sophia.Before Sophia said something, she took the lead in launching an attack.

"I don't want to have such a daughter-in-law if I can."

Sophia looked coldly at Evelyn and said with detestation.

Llistening to their words, Evelyn opened her mouth to try to say something, but before she spoke,she was interrupted by Mrs. Miller.

"Miss Davis should have known my identity and the purpose of my coming today."

She said, looking up and down at Evelyn,and said coldly,"You are very arrogant though you are still young.But who gave you the right to slap my daughter?"

Evelyn had already known that Mrs. Miller came here to get even with her,and this incident was due to her own disrespect,so she accepted all her reprimands,and at the same time put on a gesture of admitting her mistakes.

"I'm sorry.I had too much to drink that night,so I offended Miss Miller.I hope you could give me a oppotunity to apologize and forgive me."

She apologized in a low voice, but as soon as the words fell,the voice of Vivian's sarcasm sounded.

"Well,everyone knows that you can hold your liquor.Drunk?Such a ridiculous excuse!"

When Evelyn heard that,she knew it was bad.

As expected,she saw the anger on Mrs. Miller's face was even worse.

Of course, Mrs. Miller had never thought it could be over after Evelyn apologized.

But now there was a better reason for her to give vent to her pent-up feelings on some extraneous pretext.

"Oh,Miss Davis is so cultured,which really widened my vision. Even though you don't care about your bad reputation in public and dare to contradict defiantly the elders, please stop incriminating Envy.Remember what I say now.If you don't give us a satisfactory answer and see justice done for my daugther,our families' friendship will be over today!"

Hearing this,Evelyn eyes showed shock in a sudden.

She didn't expect it to rise to a relationship between the two families.

She looked at Mrs.Miller in dismay.

And Mrs.Miller had wanted to settle with Evelyn for a long time, but there had been no chance before.So it was impossible for her to stick up for Evelyn at present.

She glanced at Evelyn with cold eyes and said with a smile," Mrs. Miller,this is due to the fact that us Hawk family didn't teach her well.So no matter how you want to deal with her,we have no objection."

This meant that Evelyn now was at Envy and her mother's disposal.

Mrs. Miller also understood what what she said meant,then she looked at Evelyn and said in a cold voice,"Miss Davis,I don't want to embarrass you.As long as you kneel down and apologize to us,this matter can be settled."

Evelyn heard the words and looked at Sophia in disbelief.Then she immediately looked at Envy behind Sophia. Envy also looked at her.

Evelyn took back her sight difficultly.When she didn't know what to do,she heard the voice of Mrs. Miller again.

"Miss Davis,I hope you won't think we are bullying you on the strength of our powerful connections or position. You should know that Envy has always been regarded as treasure in my family.It's just a few days since she came to your family.It's even more shocking to the old man of our family.He's very angry.He thinks that you're a junior,and it is unnecessary for him to come,or it will be our old man who is standing in front of you now.Of course,the result won't be as easy as letting you kneel and apologize!" After Evelyn heard these words, she knew that she maybe really had to kneel today.

If she didn't,she was to break the relationship between the two families.She didn't dare to be the offender.

For a time,she was filled with countless humiliations and grievances.

But no one could understand.

"I see."

She responded with a pale face.

When Sophia and Mrs. Miller saw this,they waited for her to kneel.

However,at this time,the voice of Lucas came behind the crowd.

"What are you doing?"

Lucas was standing at the door with his coat and suitcase in his hands.

When they saw him,they were all surprised.

"Lucas,when did you come back?"

Sophia was the first one to return to her mind and asked.

Envy's eyes twinkled and she smiled to greet him.

Only Mrs. Miller and Evelyn didn't speak,with different looks.

Lucas looked at the faces of all the people and asked again,"Mom,what are you going to do by calling so many people come here?"

Seeing this,Sophia had to say their intention again,and didn't hide the fact that the Mrs.Miller asked Evelyn to kneel down and apologize.

After listening,Lucas glanced at Evelyn and said in a deep voice," Mrs.Miller, I am sorry that Nora beat Envy.It's really her fault,so she really should apologize."

When Mrs.Miller heard this, her nerve was relieved.

Meanwhile,Sophia and Vivian were relieved as well.

They had been worried that Lucas would protect Evelyn again.

Contrary to their relaxation, Evelyn's heart became depressed slightly.

It seemed that even Lucas didn't want to protect her this time.

"You are more sensible."Mrs. Miller said to Lucas with implication when she saw Evelyn still didn't kneel down.

To their surprise,hardly had Mrs. Miller finished speaking when Lucas suddenly changed his attitude and said rigorously," In this case,I will kneel with her.After all,we are a couple.Since she has made a mistake,as her husband,I should also make amends together." When he said so,everyone was dumbfounded.

Evelyn was also stunned.

This scene was pretty similar to what had happened last time.

At that time,Sophia asked her to go to the ancestral hall and punished her to kneel. And he also said similar words.

Evelyn didn't know how to describe her mood at this time.

Such a proud and honorable person,for this matter and for her,just was willing to kneel down and apologize.

She could hardly believe that such a scene happened in reality.

The one who shared the same mood with Evelyn was Sophia.

She calmed down and got frightened and angry by seeing this.

"Lucas,are you crazy?This is none of your business,OK?It was Nora's fault!"This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Are you confused?Or are you fascinated by this tease?"

Listening to the two people's reprimand, Mrs. Miller also regained consciousness, her eyes full of disbelief.

"Lucas,why are you even willing to kneel down with her?Is she worth your doing so?"

Facing their questions, Lucas just glanced at Evelyn and said in a cold voice,"she is now one of our family members!" What he said was that the whole Hawk Family had to take responsibility for what she had done wrong.

As soon as the words came out,everyone was silent and their faces became very gloomy.

The atmosphere even froze for a moment.

Seeing this,Evelyn was deeply moved by Lucas's protection, but she didn't want him to lose his dignity for this.

"Lucas,you don't need to kneel.I'll kneel alone.This is my fault.I have to pay the price!"

After saying so,Evelyn turned her head to Envy and looked at her.

"Miss Miller,I apologize for my offence that day.I am really sorry."

Then she appeared to kneel down...
