Chapter 198
There was nothing happened in next two days.
Evelyn didn't want to celebrate her birthday. She didn't pay attention to it. In addition, the company had a lot of things, so she soon left it behind. This day, just as she was about to go back from work, she received a call from John, asking her to meet him.
Evelyn didn't want to see him at the bottom of her heart, but due to the original agreement, she could only go. "What's up?"
She went to the appointed café and sat down directly without greeting John ans then she came to the subject. John frowned because of her attitude.
"What's your attitude? Don't you know greeting when you see a man?"
He positioned as an elder to scold, but Evelyn interrupted him impatiently.
"If you call me just to teach me a lesson, I'm sorry I don't have so much time."
With that, she got up to leave.
John was too angry: "stop!"
Evelyn stopped, raised her eyebrows and looked at him, "do Mr. Davis want to say?"
John was angry. However, when he thought of the next thing, he can only bear it. "Sit down!"
He glared at Evelyn and ordered.
Evelyn was not stubborn. She sat down.
After all, if they really argued, she was the one who has suffered.
"Come on, what can I do for you?"
She asked again in a cold voice.
John looked at her coldly and talked about the purpose of today.
"A few days later is Nora's birthday. Every year, I will give her a very grand birthday. Last year, when she married Lucas, it was even more grand!"
He said that, pausing: "so this year the party must not be bad, especially when Lucas is back. It must be very well. At that time, all the famous people in Jingdu would be invited. With the name of Hawk family, these people will attend." Evelyn listened to him talking about the birthday party. She was very upset.
They two were his daughters, but he didn't realize that one was living in the heaven and the other was living in the earth.
She told herself not caring too much. After all, she had already known that.
But she couldn't help but feel ironic.
She looked at John in a indifferent way and said, "it's useless for you to tell me so much. Now I am in Hawk family. It's all a matter of the Hawk family. Only Mrs. Hawk can decide how to manage it."
John choked when Evelyn said that.
Then he understood. After all, Evelyn was the daughter-in-law of Hawk's family. It was impossible to ignore it.
Evelyn saw that he agreed with her words and gave up the idea of charging the birthday party. She was relieved.
Otherwise, she would go on as he asked, for fear that she would be ridiculed by Mrs. Hawk and other people.
And then she thought of another thing, compressing her lips, "and on my birthday, I want to go to the hospital to see my mother."
When John heard this, he frowned slightly and refused without thinking.
"No way. Don't forget your present identity and the thing before which was almost exposed!"
Evelyn bit hr lips and wanted to fight for it. But before she could speak, she was interrupted by John.
"And that's an important day for Nora. You can't make any mistakes playing her now!"
He said, and then continued in the tone of almsgiving: "anyway, if it's not for Nora, how can you have such a grand birthday party? I think you'll just one time in your life. Enjoy it. Behave yourself and not make any trouble for me." Evelyn trembled with anger when she heard the humiliating words.
She grabbed her handbag, jumped up from the sofa, sneered at John and said, "I'm sorry, but I don't care about what you said!"
After that, she left regardless of John's terrible face.
All the way home, she was still in a bad mood.
Especially thinking of John's humiliating words, she was so angry that she couldn't even eat, so she went directly to the back garden pavilion to stay.
She wondered if she had been wrong in the first place.
She shouldn't have come to this man.
Without him, she had no way to save her mother.
And when she promised the man to replace Nora, she knew it was an unequal cooperation.
So it was all she expected that she would be humiliated now. She had nothing to be sad about, did she?
Evelyn's anger disappeared with this self comfort.
She wished time could pass quickly, and to let her end this terrible cooperation earlier.
She looked up at the night overhead and sighed.
She seeing that sky, the stars were all over. They were shining, twinkling and very good-looking.
She gazed at the distance, and the wind was blowing slowly by her side. It seemed that her disappointment in her heart was blowing away.
Just as she was going to pace back slowly, she saw a slender figure coming towards her.
She saw the man slowly approaching, he showing his flawless face.
The yellow street lamp behind him shone on him, as if giving a layer of golden light on his body, making people unable to move their eyes. Evelyn looked at him fondly until he came to her.
"I listened to the housekeeper that you didn't eat at night again. What's the matter?"
Evelyn collected herself, and the chagrin flickered in her eyes.
She saw him every day. How can she was stunned because of him?
She pretended to be calm and cover up: "nothing, just creation in the daytime. I have no inspiration, so I am a little upset."
Lucas had no doubt. He knew that designers were very annoyed when they had no inspiration.
"Don't worry. Take your time. The company is stable now. Don't push yourself too hard."
He comforted her. Evelyn knew that he was caring about herself, and her heart was touched. "I know."
She responded with a smile.
Just as she was going to go back with Lucas, she heard that he suddenly mentioned her birthday.
"By the way, I've told the housekeeper to do this. Do you have any requirements?"
Evelyn was stunned. Looking at the seriousness in his eyes, her feeling was very complex.
"There's no requirement. Let the housekeeper do on his own decision."
When Lucas heard this, he frowned slightly and seemed to be dissatisfied with the answer.
He always thought that Evelyn's attitude to the birthday party was not as positive as that in the information.
But Evelyn didn't noticed. At this time, she was immersed in her own thoughts and couldn't extricate herself.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Of course, she should be happy when Lucas was about to give her a birthday party, but she couldn't laugh. Because she knew that the reason why Lucas held it was because she was Nora, not Evelyn.
She felt sad and lost when she thought about it.
Wake up, Evelyn. Why were you upset and sad?
She felt that she was seriously ill and deeply involved in this play. She knew that all these were not belonging to her, but she was eager. Evelyn, didn't think about it. These didn't belong to you at all!
Whether Lucas or the birthday party, it was not what she should think.
And in the past years, she and her mother also lived in this way. Why were you so greedy now?
