The Gorgeous Substitute Wife of Mr. President -
Chapter 468
For the next two days, Evelyn didn't go out.
But Austin always contacted her on the pretext of knowing about the contract.
Evelyn didn't want to get into unnecessary trouble, so she always declined with all kinds of excuses and asked Austin to go to the Davis Group.
Two days later, Jingdu News made a big move again, congratulating the Qin family and Yahuang on their successful signing in a blaze of publicity.
As soon as the news spread out, it surprised other Jingdu companies.
They didn't expect someone else to be so bold to cooperate with the Yahuang Group despite the Hawk Group was suppressing it.
Of course, they were more regretful after they were shocked.
Because after signing the contract successfully, Nora introduced Yahuang into the domestic market, and led Qin family to win many projects at home and abroad, and even secretly seized many resources originally belonging to the Hawk Group. Abroad, Lucas also learned about the domestic situation from Cater's report.
He said coldly with a calm face, "Things were almost handled here. Book tickets and we'll go back tomorrow. By the way, ask people to check how Yahuang and the Qin family cooperated. I want their new trends."
Cater nodded and accepted the order.
...
On the next day, as soon as Evelyn got up, she got the news that Lucas was coming back. She was very happy and in a good mood all day.
By evening, Lucas was back.
"Lucas."
It was hard for her to hide her yearning, so she quickly walked up to Lucas and greeted him.
Lucas's steps paused. He took a cold look at her and passed her by with a cold face.
Evelyn was stunned and stared at the back of his departure. She stood in situ at a loss, as if she was soaked by a basin of cold water.
Mo Li didn't know why Lucas had this attitude towards Evelyn, but when she saw Evelyn's frustrated look, she smiled with gloated and went after Lucas.
"Mr. Hawk, how was your trip abroad?"
Lucas said a cold "yes" and went straight to the living room to put down his briefcase.
"What is going on between Yahuang and the Qin family?"
He asked Mo Li, but he looked at Evelyn.
It turned out on the way back, Lucas had found that the reason why Yahuang was able to enter Jingdu was all due to Evelyn.
"Tell me what you have done in this matter."
""
"..."
Evelyn pressed her lips, not knowing how to explain.
"You have nothing to say?" Lucas looked even worse.
Evelyn's heart was filled with grievances, but she could not tell him the truth, "The Davis family wants Yahuang to operate. You have always disagreed. I had no choice but to replace Austin."
Lucas snorted coldly, "You had no choice? I told you that if the Davis family put you in a dilemma, you just tell me. What's more, didn't I tell you to stay away from those male confidants you used to have? Is it because I've been so kind and doted on you recently that you forget your identity?"
Evelyn was wronged and unable to tell him the truth. She moved her lips and looked at Lucas sadly.
Lucas didn't replace the difference in her eyes, especially when he thought of the picture Mo Li showed him, his heart was full of surging anger.
"Nora, it seems that I underestimated you. I thought you were honest in this period of time. It was just that you pretended to be tame in front of me and tried to help your old lover to gain benefits. How could you even sacrifice yourself for your old lover and forget the humiliation that Yahuang gave to you, or are you born to be a slut that everyone despised? Was it my meddling that day that destroyed your good plan?"
Evelyn turned pale, "No. It's not like what you said!"
Lucas didn't believe her anymore. He took a deep look at her and turned to go upstairs.
Evelyn wanted to go after him but was stopped by Mo Li.
"Get out my way!"
She stared at Mo Li and pushed her, but Mo Li was motionless.
"Young mistress, can't you see that? The last person Mr. Hawk wants to see now is you. I advise you not to annoy Mr. Hawk, otherwise, he will say something more harsh."
Evelyn was froze all over, watching the view of Lucas 's back disappear in the corridor in a daze.
Mo Li sneered and ignored her, turning around and chasing after Lucas.
Evelyn took her eyes back sadly and headed for the bedroom.
When passing by the study, she heard Mo Li reporting something to Lucas in a light voice. Bitterness spread to her heart.
She knew that she had done it wrong, but she had no choice at all.
In the next few days, the two entered a state of the mutual neglect due to Lucas's unilateral indifference.
No matter how Evelyn tried to replace opportunities to talk to Lucas, she was always ignored by Lucas.
Even they started sleeping in separate rooms at night.
Evelyn did not expect that the problem would become like this, and she was more bitter and uncomfortable.
Several times, she was so impulsive that she wanted to tell Lucas the truth, but she finally gave up.
Mo Li watched Lucas and Evelyn become more and more estranged day by day. She was more and more proud. At home, Mo Li did not spare any effort to suppress Evelyn.
Just like on this day, Evelyn planned to go to the kitchen to make some supplements for Lucas when he came back in the evening. However, she was scolded by Mo Li as soon as she got to the kitchen.
"Nora, are you trying to kill Mr. Hawk?"
Evelyn scowled and retorted, "Miss Moyou'd better pay attention to what you say. Anyone may harm Lucas except me!"
"Except you? I think you're the most likely to harm him. If Mr. Hawk is harmed, you can be satisfied. You and your old lover can be together again."
Evelyn was shivering with rage, and she glared at Mo Li with bloodshot eyes.
Mo Li was not afraid either. She scoffed and got close to Evelyn's ear. Then she said with a voice only the two could hear, "If I were you, I would leave the Hawk family after doing such a humiliating deed. If you stay in the Hawk family so shamelessly, it would only make Mr. Hawk hate you more. Don't you see that Mr. Hawk thinks you are dirty and doesn't sleep in the same room with you now."
The word "dirty" made Evelyn have difficulty in breathing. Her heart was painful, as if tens of millions of ants were nibbling it.
Mo Li saw her look clearly and curved the corners of her mouth like a triumphant winner, "If you are wise, just leave on your own initiative, otherwise you will suffer later."
Evelyn returned to her senses and stared at Mo Li without blinking.
With a sound of "slap", Mo Li's face turned to one side, and five reddish marks appeared on her white cheek.
Everyone froze, as if they had never expected that Evelyn would do this.
"Bitch, how dare you slap me!"
Mo Li didn't expect her to do this either, so she was angrily after she responded and stared at Evelyn with bloodthirsty eyes.
Evelyn shook her stinging hand and sneered, "Why I dare not? I have endured you for a long time. What's your qualification to drive me away? Even if I'm driven away, I'm driven away by Lucas!"
Mo Li clenched her fists tightly. Just as she was going to fight back, Lucas' voice sounded cold behind them.
"What are you doing?"
Mo Li and Evelyn froze at this.
Mo Li suddenly loosened her clenched fist and glanced at Evelyn with bad intention.
Evelyn was uneasy at the moment.
Before she could respond, Mo Li pretended to be aggrieved and complained first, "Mr. Hawk, you came back just in time, please justify for me. I just told young mistress that she shouldn't go to Austin and get you into trouble. However, young mistress just beat me and warn me not to bother about her business!"
Lucas's look darkened, and the air around him dropped several degrees.
Evelyn's heart thumped and hurriedly explained, "Lucas, listen to me, it's just... Ah, what are you doing?"
Before she finished speaking, Lucas grabbed her wrist suddenly and walked upstairs.
Several times, she nearly fell because she couldn't keep up with Lucas.
Lucas ignored that and went upstairs attentively.
Mo Li was downstairs looking at Evelyn's embarrassed appearance. Her eyes were full of undisguised pride. Looking at Mr. Hawk's angry appearance, she guessed that he wouldn't let go of Nora easily this time!
