The Gorgeous Substitute Wife of Mr. President
Chapter 160

Evelyn didn't know what he was thinking about, seeing his face suddenly turned serious, and he was frown, she felt puzzled.

Why he becomes unhappy again?

She carefully thought about the words she said to him just now, she did not replace any problem, so she felt that the man was always in an uncertain mood. She curled her lip and ignored him and turned to clean up the drawings on the table.

However, her ignoring made Lucas feel even more depressed.

So, they spent the whole night like that peacefully.

For the next two days, although Evelyn did not ask Lucas for help, she was also worried about her mother.

Because her mother was still being threatened by John.

However, two days passed, John didn't come to urge her, she was relieved.

If things are as serious as John said, he would have called to urge her every day.

But now he hasn't been looking for her for two days, and it may be not that serious.

When she thought about it, she didn't care much about it.

But she didn't know that John has been waiting for her news.

He thought that Evelyn would soon put things into effect because of her mother.

Just as before.

But he did not know that this time he waited so long time but did not hear the good news, but the company's situation became more and more awful.

"Chairman, the project department came to report just now, because the funds we prepared have not been settled now, the cooperation of several projects we negotiated before has been transferred to other companies."

The assistant came in with a gloomy face to report to john and dared not look at John after he finished speaking.

John looked at him with an angry expression.

"What's the matter? Don't you tell them that if they wait a few days, the fund will be ready soon?"

The assistant was scolded by him innocently.

He thought of another news he hadn't tell him, "I said to them, but they didn't want to wait, not only for the unsigned projects, but for the project we are running. They also deliberately defaulted and handed over the projects to others so as not to be ruined by us." John was trembling with anger after hearing this.

If things continue going on like that, the company will go bankrupt sooner or later.

He forced himself to calm down, and took a deep breath, looked at the assistant in front of him, and said, "You send some people to placate the partners as much as possible, and tell them that the project will never be ruined by us. As for the rumors of the Davis, it will be explained in these days, tell them not to believe what is said outside."

The assistant took his orders and left immediately.

As he left, John began to busy with his business.

He took the car keys on the table and went downstairs to ask Evelyn for the things he had entrusted.

Evelyn didn't plan to meet him at all.

John had guessed that she would not come, so he said it toughly and gave Evelyn no choice but to meet him.

"How is the matter going these days?"

John can't wait to ask Evelyn about it.

Evelyn looked at his anxious look, her eyes were filled with impatience.

"I haven't told him yet."

She said straightly, John glared at her and got angry.

"Didn't you talk it with him? Why? Do you know how dangerous the company is now?

Evelyn listened to him and said. "I don't know, I don't want to know, either. I won't do it. Because of your endless requirement, now the family members are particularly disgusted with me. If you still want Nora to live a good life in their family in the future, you'd better not force me." John was furious by her words.

"Ah, are you threatening me?"

He looked at Evelyn with a sneer and with chill in his eyes.

"Don't threaten me with Nora. You should know that Nora is much better than you. I believe she can handle the relationship with Hawk family well."

Evelyn snorted when she heard this.

Just as she was ready to satirize him, what John said next made her get angry.

"This time, no matter what excuse you have, you have to do it unless you don't want your mother to live!"

"John Davis!"

Evelyn stared at him angrily.

John didn't care at all. He said in a cold voice, "You should know that you are never have the right to negotiate with me. As long as I give an order to not save your mother, it is impossible for you to see her anymore!" Evelyn was shivering because of his words, and her fist was clenched tightly.

"Do you f*****g still have humanity?"

She sharply questioned him, and John laughed with sarcasm.

Evelyn was very angry: "John, you are so despicable, to make use of such a weak and sick woman, she is your ex-wife anyway!"

"Just ex-wife."

John said scornfully.

The scornful look made Evelyn stunned, and the cold feeling spread all over her body.

Only now did she really know how ungrateful the man was.

In other words, he had made clear her mother and her status from the beginning, they were just a chess piece in his hand.

Since she agreed to the deal, she had no resistance at all.

Because her weakness was hold by the man.

Therefore, she had to compromise again.

She returned home with a gloomy face and thought of John's account. She was in a bad mood that she couldn't eat any food. She locked herself in her room and thought about how to speak to Lucas. However, no matter what she thought, she knew that as long as the words were spoken out, they would surely annoy Lucas.

She must say it to him. suddenly, she was in a dilemma and was so worried.

She didn't know if it's because of her emotional fluctuation, or because she haven't eaten anything, she had a stomachache suddenly. And the housekeeper came to inform that Lucas was back.

"I see."

She frowned slightly and tried to go out of the room and went into the living room.

As Lucas entered the room, she greeted him: "You are back."

Lucas took a look at her, nodded silently, and then he wanted to go upstairs.

Evelyn saw the situation, she hurried to approach to him, and said, " Lucas, can you wait a minute, I need to talk to you."

Lucas heard her words, and he stopped.

He turned around and squinted on her, his eyes was flashing.

"Go to the study."

After said that, he took the lead in going to the study.

Evelyn looked at him and hurried to catch up with him.

Along the way, she was very worried, but she did not know that Lucas had already guessed what she wanted to say.

Although she did not say that day, he knew that she would replace him sooner or later.

After all, he was the only one who can help Davis Company now.

Soon, they arrived at the study.

Lucas sat down at his desk and asked, "So, what's the matter?"

Evelyn saw the situation, made up her mind. She said directly, "Can you mobilize some funds and lend it to Davis company?"
