The Gorgeous Substitute Wife of Mr. President
Chapter 176

Because of the drug effect, they almost made love until the sky turned white and then went to sleep.

Evelyn was so tired that her bones seemed to be falling apart and she didn't even have a bath. She was lying on the bed, completely limp and in a trance. But before she fell asleep, she could not help swearing at Amelia.

It should know that as Lucas usually had s*x vigorously, she had already spent a lot of energy on making love to him.

Now that he had been drugged, and could not control himself, she was on the verge of losing half her life by having s*x with him. Amelia was really like that went for wool and came home shorn, bringing trouble upon her at the same time.

...

The next day, Evelyn woke up late.

For a moment she felt as if she had been run over by a car, making her limp and unable to move.

Lucas sat at the side of the bed, watching the woman wake up and continue to stay in bed, and frowning slightly. "How? Aren't you going to get up?"

When Evelyn heard his voice, she turned her head in surprise and saw Lucas dressed up sitting on the couch.

"Why are you still there?"

As soon as she said this, she noticed something was wrong and asked him again quickly. "Err...I mean, aren't you going to work today?" Lucas took one look at her, smiling weakly and saying to her. "Today is my day off."

Evelyn responded, lying still in bed.

Lucas watched, frowning.

"Now that you are awake, getting up and washing your face, and then you and I will go out to meet a friend of mine."

Evelyn was stunned for a while, nodding.

"I get it."

When she had finished speaking, she got out of bed, too.

As a result, as soon as her feet touched the ground, she felt her legs were so weak that she fell forward.

Seeing that she was about to fall to the ground, she closed her eyes, bracing herself for the pain.

But the expected pain did not come, as she was carried into his warm embrace by his strong arm. "Thank you..."

She breathed a sigh of relief, thanking the man in front of her.

Lucas released her, looking at her meaningfully.

"Well, I was responsible for your fall, anyway."

When Evelyn heard this, she understood the implication of his words immediately.

For a moment the picture of their passion last night flashed through her mind, her cheeks burning. "Rascal!"

She glared at him with anger and shame, she turning into the bathroom.

Lucas looked at her running back, he suddenly laughing.

Evelyn's face burned as she heard the laughter.

She pressed herself against the door, patting her cheek with both hands and she calmed down after a while.

Since Lucas had told her that she would go out to meet a friend of his, she put on a light makeup after washing, which made her look very energetic. By the time she was done, Lucas was no longer in the room.

She did not hurry to replace him, but went to the dressing room, choosing a slim dress to show her temperament before leaving the room. Downstairs, Lucas sat on the couch reading the financial paper.

When he looked up subconsciously at the sound of footsteps, his eyes flashed with wonder.

He saw Evelyn coming down the stairs slowly in a pale blue dress, the train of which followed her like a blooming flower.

The gold and silver lines brightened the plain dress and made Evelyn look gentle and graceful, and elegant and natural.

Evelyn did not notice the flash of surprise in Lucas' eyes. She walked up to Lucas, whispering. "I'm all right. Shall we go now?"

Lucas came to his senses, disguising the look in his eyes, and nodding with reserved indifference. "Let's go."

After saying this, he went out first.

Since it was lunchtime when they went out, the appointment was made in a Chinese restaurant.

As Evelyn followed Lucas, they were soon led out of the private room by the waiter.

Lucas pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Evelyn.

As soon as she got into the room, she saw someone inside, and he looked very handsome.

The man wore a fine casual suit with a mild smile on his face, so it was somehow comforting to look at.

It was none other than Jacob.

Seeing them, he got up to shake hands with Lucas, who was walking towards him. At the same time, the two best friends bumped into each other's shoulders slightly. "Here you are, keeping me waiting for so long."

Hearing this, Lucas seemed to have a smile on his lips, he saying jokingly. "You can choose not to wait for me."

Hearing this, Jacob could not help grinding his teeth.

"How can you say that? How many days have I been back before you had time to see me? If I don't wait for you, can we still meet?"

With that, he slightly punched Lucas's chest to show his disapproval.

"It is because that I've been busy lately, and besides, I'm here to see you."

Lucas didn't mind his impolite words, chuckling back.

Evelyn watched their interaction with surprise and amazement.

After all, she has known Lucas for so long and never seen him so close to anyone.

Just when she looked at Jacob curiously, Jacob also noticed her.

"Hello, Evelyn."

He greeted her with a smile. Because of Lucas, he knew Evelyn.

When Lucas saw Jacob, he introduced him to Evelyn, saying. "He's Jacob, my friend."

Evelyn nodded, greeting him politely. "Hello, Jacob."

She did not know that her behavior made Jacob could not help but look at her, but soon he stopped.

Lucas, of course, knew why Jacob was looking at her, but instead of explaining, he invited Jacob to sit down and eat.

As the dishes were served, the two of them began to chat.

"How long are you going to stay this time?"

"HMM... It should be more than a month. There's an academic exchange I need to attend."

Lucas nodded. "That's good."

Seeing this, Jacob asked him about his recent situation.

Lucas laughed, saying. "I am still the same, but much better than abroad."

Jacob was surprised to hear what he said and was about to say something, but Lucas did not want to continue the topic and talked with him about finance and economics.

Evelyn saw that they were talking so warmly that she did not disturb them and she served Lucas the food.

Jacob was surprised that she could say so little that he could count on by five fingers after a meal.

After all, that's not what he heard about Nora!

Although he was surprised, he did not show it.

After dinner, since Lucas and Jacob had more to say, they offered to send Evelyn home first.

Evelyn didn't reject them either.

The two then took her back to the Hawk family, then walking toward the company.

On the way, Jacob looked at Lucas as Lucas was driving, and he couldn't help but wonder. "Did your newly married wife change her character or was it because she met me for the first time, so she wanted to leave a good impression on me? She seemed so nice." Hearing this, Lucas glanced at him sideways, understanding what he meant, and smiling. "At first, I thought she was faking just like you, but after getting along with her for long time, I found that she didn't fake."

When Jacob heard this, his eyes looked a little surprised, and thinking of the rumor, he could not help but exclaim. "The rumor is sure to destroy people. According to what you say, and combining with what I saw, I am sure that your wife is very nice!"
