Sophia could not help complaining." What? Your son drove Amelia away. We should be thankful that they are not annoyed. " Hearing this and looking at the discontent on her face, Devin understood what she was thinking. But he didn't think that way.

"I think there is nothing wrong with Lucas. Though Amelia has lived in our house for years and we said she is just a guest, we all know exactly what people are thinking about this. It really had some bad effects on her reputation." Sophia was still reluctant.

Especially now, the Morgans suddenly gained a higher status. When this occurred to her, rage was filled in her eyes.

She could not help complaining."Really. I have not figured out what father was thinking, Amelia should be the best for Lucas. She has a pretty look and a pretty family background, she will be a good wife for Lucas. But father insisted to keep his promise at that time, insisted to let Lucas get married to that useless woman and she only knew how to benefit herself."

Hearing this, Devin hawk frowned.

"Dad always thinks keeping promise is important. You know it. No more these words, in case it's known by father.

He lowered his voice to warn her. Even if she wanted to complaint more, she had to keep them in her own heart.

...

The next day, Evelyn knew the news of promotion of the Morgans. She was shocked for a while.

Well, Amelia left and her father got promotion.

She didn't know what people were going to say about her this time.

This was going on forever.

Thinking of it, she rubbed her brows to relief the headache.

She came there just to play her own role well in this year, who knows that there was always a wave going up and going down.

At the moment, she could only take a step at a time.

She just hoped that the trouble wouldn't come to her so soon.

She thought to herself, but reality was just the opposite.

The Morgans was going to celebrate their promotion.

But while they had improved their status, they still needed to keep a low profile.

And Amelia's father had worked in the south side of the Jiangnan, now he stayed in Jingdu. He just got this job, superiors would observe him for a while. So he couldn't make it a big banquet. He was going to invite some relatives and friend to gather at his house. And Evelyn heard from the housekeeper at night.

The Morgans also invited the Hawks to dinner.

She thought it had nothing to do with her.

After all, Amelia hated her very much. And no one came to tell her about it. She let the housekeeper prepare dinner when night came.

As she was going to eat lunch, Lucas came back.

"Don't you know we are going to the Morgans' to eat dinner?"

He asked, frowning as he looked at the dishes in front of Evelyn.

He looked at the dished in front of Evelyn, asking her with frown.

Evelyn was stunned. Then she came to her mind and said slowly. "Nobody told me about it, I thought I wasn't on the invitation list." Though she said it mildly, Lucas still knew her mind.

He frowned tightly. He guessed it might be his mother's idea.

"You are my wife, you are part of the Hawks. You should be there."

His eyes were deep. Hearing it, Evelyn's heart started to beat fast. But she did not care.

Because she cared about another thing.

If she went there, she always felt like she would get in trouble.

But now, she had no excuse to refuse him, she could just wait and see what would happen.

Thinking so, she went upstairs and simply dressed.

A light blue dress made her simple and generous. And the elegant make-up, it was not eye-catching. After all, the Morgans held this dinner.

As for Lucas, he was still in the same high-level custom suit.

They simply dressed. And they went to the main house, intending to go with Sophia.

In the living room, Sophia was talking and laughing with Vivian. On seeing Evelyn, their smile faded.

Especially, Vivian said coldly." Nora? what are you doing here?"

Evelyn did not respond her immediately, but looked at Lucas.

Lucas gave her a glance, frowning with discontent.

"Aunt, Nora will go with us to the Morgans'. Is there something wrong?"

These was threat in his voice, which made Vivian couldn't say a word and got annoyed.

"How dare she go there, she..."

Vivian intended to say that Evelyn drove Amelia away. But before she could finish her words, Sophia stopped her.

"All right, Vivian. Since Lucas is going to take her with us, just let her. With Lucas on her side, I believe she will be fine."

Sophia didn't want to argue with her son about it anymore.

She knew in her heart that the more she quarreled with Lucas over these things, the more Lucas would make excuse for that woman.

In the end, she wouldn't drive the woman away, but she would make their relation more intimate.

Thinking of it, she changed the strict attitude before, said indifferently. "Remember to pay attention to your own words and behavior there. Don't lose our face, or, even if Lucas wants help you, I won't let you go easily." Evelyn shivered in her heart, hearing her fake words.

They would blame on her even if it wasn't her fault.

She thought in her heart. But her face was still calm. She nodded slightly.

So, they left for the Morgans together.

The Morgans' was brightly lit. This house was the European style villa. Although it couldn't compare with the Hawk's, it was still gorgeous.

As they arrived, Mr. and Mrs. Morgan and Amelia stood at the door to greet them.

"Welcome, Mr. Hawk, Sophia."

Mr. and Mrs. Morgan saw them and greeted them first.

Amelia followed her parents and greeted them sweetly.

Devin and Sophia's worries suddenly disappeared for their enthusiasm.

It seemed that they didn't care much about the thing happened before. And they began to chat.

Amelia stood by them and kept looking back.

She knew that Lucas was coming today. She had been dressing up since this afternoon to make Lucas see her at his first sight and amazed by her.

She was full of discontent in her heart after that thing.

She didn't believe she couldn't compare with Nora, that bitch.

The elders saw her solicitous appearance in their eyes, but didn't speak it out.

It was not long before Lucas and Evelyn, who had fallen behind, reached the house.

Lucas got out first.

Amelia saw him. She was so delighted and about to step forward, but then she froze.

Lucas didn't immediately come to her, but went to the other side, opened the door for Evelyn and invited her out like a gentleman.

Amelia looked at Evelyn. Her face suddenly changed.

She didn't expect Evelyn, the bitch, dare to come!

But it seemed something occurred to her. She removed her angry face, smiled brightly and stepped forward to greet them. "Lucas, you are finally here. We have been waiting for you for a long time. She went around Lucas and kept talking to him.

Then, as if she just found Evelyn was here, she pretended to be sorry and made a playful apology." Evelyn, I am sorry. I forgot to say hello to you. It has been a long time since I saw Lucas, I'm a little excited."
