As Sophia left, the new house returned to quiet.

Evelyn was still thinking about those people. It was told from her face that she was pondering. Lucas went to give Evenly a comfort since he thought what Sophia said made Evelyn upset. "Don't take what she said so serious. Have a rest."

Evelyn collected herself from pondering. She saw the back of Lucas going upstairs and she realized that he was misunderstanding but she was still glad since she knew that Lucas was caring her.

Even though she did not take what Sophia said seriously, it was making her uncomfortable anyway.

However, with his comfort, it was completely different.

She went upstairs with smile, but she found that Lucas had already changed clothes.

"Are you leaving? You said have a rest, didn't you?"

She frowned and asked. Lucas nodded.

"I just received a call from the company. They need me to deal with something."

After he said, Lucas had dressed up and he was ready to go.

"Wait."

Evelyn held him instantly.

"What's wrong?"

Lucas was confused. He turned his side to her.

"I would like to know how you found out that those people were coming for me? You knew the reason why they were coming for me, didn't you? I can't make it clear, besides, I don't even know them and I did not offend anyone. Why they were coming for me?" Evelyn planned to ask those questions on the bed but she did not have the chance so she could only make them short.

Lucas frowned. He did not expect that Evelyn was still thinking about those.

"I asked people to protect you since you were tracked last time. Therefore, I would know at the first time if you have a trouble. As for the reason they were coming for you, I have not got a clew so don't think too much. I would make it clear." Lucas knew that Evelyn would be more panic if he says nothing so he told her all the things he knew meanwhile, gave her a comfort.

Evelyn was disappointed when she heard what Lucas said, but she still let go him sensibly.

"That's so kind of you."

Lucas frowned. He seemed disliked her distant words. But he did not say anything else. He just nodded and left.

Lucas met Mo Li who just came back after sending Sophia away when he just walked to the yard.

"Are you going out, sir?"

Lucas nodded," Yes, I got business."

Mo Li was excited when she heard that.

"Let me to go with you."

She followed Lucas as she was saying.

Lucas frowned and looked at Mo Li. He refused with a cold voice," You stay and protect Evelyn." He left directly after he said.

Mo Li was immediately disappointed and she could only watch the back of Lucas leaving.

...

In the room, Evelyn could not fall asleep after Lucas left.

Even with Lucas's comfort, she could not be in ease.

She did not offend anyone but it did not mean that Nora did not, either.

They changed their identities with each other anyway and that woman was always arrogant and aggressive. That was well known!

Evelyn got up from the bed and called John.

"What's the matter, again?"

John's impaAs Sophia left, the new house returned to quiet.

They changed their identities with each other anyway and that woman was always arrogant and aggressive. That was well known! Evelyn got up from the bed and called John.

"What's the matter, again?"

John's impatient voice came through the phone.

"Tell me, did Nora offend any gangsta before?

Evelyn queried.

There was a pause in the other side of the phone after Evelyn asked the question.

After a long while, John's voice came through again but his tone and voice were odd," Why you ask that? Everything's good, isn't it?"

Evelyn did not found out that. She queried again," Just tell me that."

John pursed his lips and his tone was impatient again," How could she? You are being unreasonable. Just hang up the phone if there is nothing else."

He tried to hang up after he said but was interrupted by Evelyn's yell.

"John Davis!"

John's hand trembled, he got mad," Where you get the ball to yell at me?"

Evelyn ignored his rebuke. She clenched her teeth," You made me do that. You'd better explain frankly. Did Nora offend anyone?"

She found that John was trying to escape from the question even mad at her.

In fact, he was.

John stayed in silent after Evelyn queried again.

"Why you are not talking? Tell me, I have the right to know!"

Evelyn rebuked when she realized that there must be something John and Nora trying to hide from her.

John was disgruntled when he heard what Evelyn said.

"Why should I tell you about Nora? Just do your job."

He contradicted but Evelyn sneered.

"Why? Because my life is in danger now!"

She said with anger in her eyes.

"John Davis, don't forget, that is not in the contract we made before. Listen, you and Nora would not be in ease if any accident happens to me. You have my word!" John's face suddenly became gloomy when he heard Evelyn's threat.

"You are more and more aggressive now. You are even not satisfied with one threat. What? Are you making my compromise a ticket of you being unreasonable?" He warned Evelyn with a sense of danger in it.

Evelyn trembled but she still struck back," You compelled me!"

She did not expect that the thing will come to this but those father and daughter bullied her too much.

They would be eaten by them if she doesn't resist!

"You have my word anyway. You and Nora would not be in ease if anything bad happens to me or my mother!"

She was giving those harsh words holding her phone tight in her hand.

John understood that she was not joking. He could only compromise again.

"You have no right to know those things about Nora. But I could send people to protect you and your mother in the dark."

Evelyn knew that was the best he could compromise. She stopped tangling and said," You'd better keep your word." She hung up directly after she said.

Evelyn sat on the bed and took a deep breath to calm down after she hung up.

She could not fall asleep at all so she just simply went out to the garden since she found the weather was good.

But she found Mo Li was standing outside the door when she got out the room. She was frightened.

"What are you doing here?"

Mo Li just glanced at her but she did not talk.

Evelyn could not help frowning.

She found that Mo Li was rejecting her so she did not say anything else and left.

She did not want to be ignored when she was showing kindness anyway.

But Evelyn did not expect that Mo Li followed her everywhere she went.

She looked at the person standing behind her and frowned hard.

"Why you following me?"

Mo Li was still in silent.

Evelyn looked at Mo Li's indifferent expression. She could not endure anymore and queried again," What do you want?"
