The Gorgeous Substitute Wife of Mr. President

Chapter 21



Lucas came out of the shower and went straight to bed to rest.

He was still here. That made Evelyn nervous. Evelyn waited a long time but Lucas stayed still.

Evelyn suddenly relaxed a lot.

She rubbed herself against the soft quilt. Then she finally fell asleep deeply.

The next day, it was another sunny day.

Lucas went straight to the office after having breakfast.

Evelyn had nothing to do at home.Since the weather was so nice, she asked servants to put a lounger and a small table in the yard. Under the sunshine, she could alter the design drafts Lucas had given her yesterday. Some snacks, drinks were put on the small table. She enjoyed holding the stack of design drafts, lying on the lounger, drawing and altering. How comfortable it was.

When Amelia came out from the other side of the garden, that was all she saw.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Seeing Evelyn's leisurely appearance, she clenched her teeth out of hatred.

She sent someone to monitor Nora for days trying to catch her tripping.

She thought Nora was going to sneak out like before.

Who knew that Nora had turned into a different person. She even didn't get out of house.

She was either reading or drawing every day at home, cultivating her own body and mind. She had totally changed.

Amelia suspected she was exactly another person if Amelia didn't see her face.

After a long pause, Amelia waved to a busy maid in the yard and asked. "Linda, come here!"

"Miss Morgan." Linda stopped the work and tidied up her clothes. Then she ran over. "Are you looking for me?"

Amelia raised her chin to Evelyn's way. "What is Nora doing?" She asked with a serious expression.

But that didn't not fit her personality at all.

"I hear she is altering the design drafts for Master Davis."

Linda said carefully. She knew what Amelia was thinking. She was afraid and blame herself for not informing her in time.

"What?"

Amelia was shocked. This morning she heard from Sophia that Lucas would start a construction company.

Deep professional background and ability to appreciate designs both are needed in design industry.

She had seen a lot of beautiful Chinese clothing in her family since childhood, and also many T-shows. So she thought she was qualified to help Lucas.

She was going to offer to help Lucas before he got enough people for his construction company.

At that time, she could get Lucas's appreciation, and also nurture the relationship between each other.

But now, Lucas gave the design drawings task to Nora, who was a outsider!

What do that idiot know?

"What a joke!"

Amelia forced a laugh. What is Nora capable of?

What she did could make Lucas give her this important task. She had no idea.

But Nora, who looked relaxed over there, was eating grapes and sometimes drew on the drafts. It could make people think she was professional.

Amelia didn't want to stay there any longer.

She turned around and walked angrily to the mansion. Sophia saw her and stopped her in the living room.

"Amelia, are you looking for Lucas? Why are you back so soon?"

Sophia asked, seeing Amelia was back with an angry look. Of course,she wanted Amelia to help Lucas.

Lucas would need help to start a new company, and also he could nurture the feelings with Amelia.

Besides, Amelia was brought up by her. She knew Amelia, and she knew Amelia was capable.

"Sophia, I am not angry at myself. Do you know that Lucas gave the new company's design drafts to Nora Davis?"

She paused, trying to calm herself down. "Nora Davis? You also know her. Put her behavior aside. Let's talk about her major. She majored in finance but her credit wasn't completed. So she bought an academic certificate." "Give her such an important job. I hope she won't be a drag on Lucas."

"Nonsense! I can't believe there is such a thing."

Sophia held Amelia's hand and said. "Don't worry. I will talk to Lucas about it. Nora is definitely not qulified to do it."

Amelia nodded. "There is no better way now. Unfortunately, these design drafts have been screwed up now."

She lowered her head with a depressed look.

However, she didn't agree with Sophia. When would Lucas come here again?

Waiting for Sophia to talk to him, maybe it would be too late.

Anyway, she couldn't let things keep going on under Nora's will.

Evelyn stretched herself and stood up from the lounger.

The design draft in her hand was left here with a half altered.

Design was totally brainy thing. Inspiration couldn't come in a flash.

After having afternoon tea, Evelyn felt bored.

"Why not go to grandpa's place? I can take the clothes bought yesterday to him."

When Evelyn was there, grandpa was drawing. Seeing her coming in,he asked, "Come here. How is this painting grandpa just finished?"

Evelyn saw it was old phoenix tree painting. Although she had not studied Chinese painting, she knew something about it. She looked at it for a while and said. "Grandpa's painting is powerful. With this branch upward, it seems a symbol of prosperity." The elder Mr. Davis heard it and glanced at her. "That's brilliant, Evelyn. Now you can read the implied meaning."

It was just an idea popping up in Evelyn's mind. Seeing grandpa agreed without any doubt, she smiled. “Grandpa, I bring you some clothes I just bought yesterday. Today I come here specially to bring them to you."

"Really?"

It was the first time he received a gift from his grandchildren. He wanted nothing and always used the best things. Children were afraid of him and dared not to get close to him.

So he was delighted to hear that Evelyn had bought him a present. He couldn't wait and had to put it on immediately.

The old servant, who had been with him all these years, saw this and also became delighted.

Other people said that Evelyn was not good enough. But in his eyes, this filial piety was rare.

Evelyn majored in fashion design. So the clothes she chose were extremely stylish.

The light grey coat, with a pale blue shirt and a pair of casual trousers which was just designed by Gianran, made the old man suddenly look several years younger. Evelyn was a sweet talker, saying it was not because what he was wearing, just because of his own charm.

So a good afternoon passed.

Dinner time at evening.

Lucas asked Evelyn directly after having a few mouth of rice. "How are the design drafts now?"
