The Gorgeous Substitute Wife of Mr. President
Chapter 42

"Hello?" Evelyn took up the phone and asked," May I help you?"

The other side of the phone was hesitating for a while and said," I'm Clyde Lowell. I'm sorry to bother. I'm making this call to ask that have you made you decision about the thing you considered." Clyde's voice was polite and mild making people amused.

Even though, Evelyn said politely," My apology. I may not accept your invitation."

The rigorous words of Lucas seemed to replaying beside her ears.

They had unpleasant arguments because of this. She did not want any trouble anymore.

She tried to hang up the phone as she was saying but stopped by Clyde's voice.

"Miss. Davis, are you worrying about anything? Are my conditions do not fit your mind? If they are not, you can make any requirements except relating to shares. I will do my best to fulfill them for you." Clyde said sincerely.

Evelyn's temple pumped when she heard his words," No, in fact... Your conditions, I'm very satisfied, but..."

Clyde understood something. His voice grew mild again," Is there anything hard to speak for Miss. Davis? I'm really admiring your talent. It will be the loss of the costume designing industry if your talent is buried. Therefore, I wish you not to refuse me." Evelyn took a deep breath. She was moved since Clyde was trying hard to persuade her.

"Clyde Lowell, thank you for approving me."

She could feel the sincerity of him, but she could not help now.

"You are welcome. I can see Miss. Davis's ability. I think our brand will be well known domestic and overseas since the combination of us. We will make a lot of money in the future, too. I promise you to gain both fame and wealth for sure." Clyde persuaded again and again. He was itching that he wished Evelyn to accept his conditions.

Evelyn pressed her lips a little. She had been out for a while so she changed the subject of talking," Mr. Lowell, it's not convenient for me now. It's talk later."

Clyde was astonished," My apology. How about we make an appointment and talk face by face."

She could feel the unusual atmosphere in the box behind her even though there was a door in between.

"I'm sorry. It's really not the time for talking now."

Evelyn hung up the phone in hurry and returned to the box.

Sophia changed her expression when she saw Evelyn was returned with a phone in her hand. Her tone was also mystifying," It is hard to gather all the family to have a dinner. How could you still be so busy and left the elders waiting for you." "My apology!" Evelyn bent her body a little to show her apology then she pulled the chair and sat down.

She was embarrassed since there were many pairs of eyes looking at her.

"It was only a call."

Grandpa Hawk wanted to take Evelyn out of the awkward situation, but it could tell that he was not happy with the words of Sophia.

The air seemed to be froze suddenly. Sophia's face turned between green and red since she was embarrassed but she did not dare to offend her husband's father.

Sophia did not dare to talk more. Her husband tried to warm up the atmosphere," Please, please, the dishes will be cold later."

Evelyn's phone rang again when his voice had not settled down yet.

Not only Sophia but also her husband was unhappy on his face this time.

Amelia snorted lightly. She was not satisfied with Evelyn obviously but no one noticed her.

The screen of the phone flashed ceaselessly. The name, Clyde Lowell on it was offending to Lucas's eyes.

His indifferent face grew more gloomy. He could not help to raising his head and glanced at Evelyn.

What was going on between she and that Clyde Lowell. It came the call first then messages now?

Evelyn took a deep breath. She took the phone and tried to text him back a message.

She tapped by her fingers very fast and she said in the message to Clyde," Let's talk face to face somewhere tomorrow afternoon."

Amelia stood up in the opposite side when the message was just sent out. She grabbed Evelyn's phone and took it away," Nora, you have to do your business after the dinner."

She waved the phone in her hand to Evelyn and smile," I will keep the phone for you now."

As Amelia was saying, she pretended to put the phone a side in a casual way but it was the place that Sophia could just see.

Sophia glanced at the phone unconsciously but she saw the words and flew into a great rage. She yelled with her ghastly face," Nora Davis!"

All the sights went to her since she yelled.

Evelyn glanced at her phone then her sight wiped Amelia and she understood something.

She did not write something wrong.

Sophia was making a fuss over a trifling matter

Sophia became more irritable since she noticed the expression on Evelyn's face was still light. She was almost breaking out her anger but she was stopped by a voice. "Mother, let's talk about things after the dinner." Lucas frowned and interrupted Sophia's words.

Sophia was choked by Lucas's words and she could only endure with her teeth clenching.

But her face was gloomy.

It was quiet in the box. No one dared to touch the chopsticks.

Grandpa Hawk was enraged," Sophia, do you have any disagreement with the marriage between Nora and Lucas? If you do, come straight to me. Why are you obstructing the kid?" Sophia was wilted since the old man was enraged suddenly. She pressed down the anger forcibly and squeezed out," I dare not."

"Then settle down and have the dinner."

Grandpa Hawk did not stick on it since she admitted the fault.

The voice of the old man was combined by stateliness. It made the box in silent instantly.

Evelyn looked at grandpa with apology. She felt warm in her heart.

Amelia chagrined in her mind," The old man was still being partial to Nora Davis even though she was acting like this. He even rebuked Sophia because of her."

Sophia stayed in quiet since she was rebuked by the old man in front of inferiors. She ate the meal in silence and no one tried to say anything on their own. The box seemed to be silent. They dismissed unhappily after a short time.

"Allow me to take you home, grandpa."

Lucas opened the door of the car for grandpa Hawk and replaced the driver to himself.

Evelyn followed and got in the car. She sat beside the old man.

Grandpa Hawk was expressionless since he got in the car. He was full of stateliness.

Even the air in the car was depressive.

On the half way, grandpa Hawk suddenly rebuked," Lucas, are you unsatisfied with Nora, too? How could you let her get along with your mother like this? As a son, you should comfort the relationship between your mother and your wife. How could you just indulge your mother making difficulties to Nora purposely?"

The old man was very angry. His chest heaved and he coughed a few times.

Evelyn reached out her hand instantly to subside.

Lucas who was driving was frightened, too. He admitted the fault instantly," I'm sorry, grandpa. I will not be like that anymore!"
