Chapter 442
Evelyn Davis stared at the handsome man by the doorway. She tried so hard to suppress her feelings. "You're back."
She held her tears and forced herself to speak. She tried her best not to let Lucas Hawk spot any difference in her. She didn't know that her acing was flawed.
Lucas Hawk didn't notice anything unusual. However, he wanted to stay close to her.
Unexpectedly, Evelyn Davis avoided him.
Lucas Hawks noticed his unrequited affection. He, then, looked at Evelyn Davis with concern.
Evelyn Davis was also stunned. When she noticed his awareness, her heart pounded.
"Uh, I'm not feeling well. I don't feel comfortable." she did not know how to cover it up, so she gave him lame excuses.
She knew her changes were caused by John Davis' threat.
She knew she would leave soon, so she turned down her hopes with Lucas Hawk.
She didn't know whether she could limit her involvement with him or not.
Lucas Hawk didn't know what she was thinking. He raised his head and nodded, "Well, you better rest. I'll take a shower and make us dinner." Evelyn Davis didn't refuse. She nodded in agreement.
She lowered her head as she watched Lucas Hawk disappeared into the bathroom.
What should she do?
No one could give her the answer.
She bit her lips and sat at the balcony until Lucas Hawk done showering. She tried to look natural and walked downstairs with him to have dinner.
During the dinner time, Evelyn Davis was mostly in trance. She didn't take care of Lucas Hawk like she always did. Her behavior made Lucas Hawk squinted his eyes.
He didn't ask Evelyn Davis a question, because he knew she wouldn't tell him anything.
After dinner, he walked Evelyn Davis back to the bedroom then walked outside to find Mo Li.
"What happened to madam today?"
Mo Li had expected this question since she was aware of her changed too.
She thought about the time Evelyn Davis started to act strangely and replied, "Today, madam visited the Davis. She didn't go anywhere else. I think it has something to do with her family." Lucas Hawk frowned. He was puzzled.
John Davis loved his daughter. John Davis should be happy that Nora Davis visited him. How was it that she looks like she has a lot in mind now? What happened to her family? He knew something must had happened to the Davis.
After all, John Davis was a greedy man. It was only a matter of time before he got into trouble.
John Davis must had called her back to do him some favors and Nora Davis must had felt the favors were difficult.
Mo Li didn't know what Lucas Hawk was thinking.
Lucas Hawk came back to his senses and asked Mo Li to leave, "It's okay. You can go back."
He waved Mo Li away.
Nora Davis seemed to have something in her mind and she might need his help. He was not worried. He would wait until Nora Davis bring it up herself. When the time came, he would told her the conditions for an exchange.
After he done thinking about it, his face was a lot better.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Mo Li looked at him while clenching her fists. She turned away.
Even after she came back to her room, she still couldn't calm herself down.
"It's me. I need you to do something." said she with a cold eyes.
If Nora Davis got into trouble and asked Lucas Hawk to help her, she would definitely let the trouble be on Nora Davis's shoulder.
She would take this opportunity to get rid of the woman out from this family.
Evelyn Davis didn't know about all this.
Evelyn Davis didn't want Lucas Hawk to spot something different from her. So, she showered right after she had dinner and went to bed early.
The next two days, she didn't know how to act in front of Lucas Hawk.
Lucas Hawk could easily spot her strange behavior, but he didn't tell. He was a little upset.
He had made it clear that she could always ask him for a help, but she had been procrastinating for too long, now.
He was a little uncomfortable. Did she not believe him?
This way, Evelyn Davis was gradually detached and Lucas Hawk was always sulking. The former atmosphere was no longer exist. Every day, both of them would greet each other as if they were in a formal meeting and they would get busy with themselves afterward. Evelyn Davis felt something was changing in her relationship with him. She was so miserable that she didn't know how to fix it, because she was the one who caused it.
She thought of fixing her relationship with Lucas Hawk, but every time she did, she remembered John Davis' threat. She couldn't give up.
Actually, Nora Davis was more of an arrogant and unreasonable woman.
She had a bad temper as well. This way, Evelyn Davis had completed a little of the transformation.
Today, Joseph Kent suddenly called her.
"Evelyn, are you free? We haven't seen each other in a long time. Do you want to hang out?"
Evelyn Davis was surprised, but she didn't refuse.
"Okay. I'll see you in our usual place."
She really needed to go out to relax her nerves. Only when she was completely calm could she make clear arrangements and refuse to be restricted even by her family. She hung up and changed her clothes.
Mo Li saw her going out. She naturally followed.
Evelyn Davis knew this and stopped for a while.
She didn't want Mo Li to follow her, but she wouldn't listen to her. She finally gave up her idea.
If Lucas Hawk happened to ask, she could just replied that she met with someone she used to know.
Less than half an hour later, she arrived at their usual place.
"Ev... Nora, here."
Joseph Kent subconsciously called her real name, but when he saw Mo Li was behind her, he stopped. Evelyn Davis was relieved.
"You can go there and sit. I'll see you when I finish."
Evelyn Davis didn't respond to Joseph Kent. She turned her head to Mo Li.
Mo Li looked away from her and stared at the man, for far away from them, coldly.
"I don't care what you do, just don't disgrace your husband!" said Mo Li. She turned around and sat down.
Evelyn Davis knew her meaning and smiled.
It seemed that in the eyes of some people, she really was the restless Nora Davis.
She didn't know whether to feel sad or grateful.
At least, that would make her change easier.
She walked to Joseph Kent and sat across him.
"Why do you want to meet me today?"
Evelyn Davis gathered her mind and started to talk.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. I don't know how you're doing. I'm worried about you. Amanda Murphy worried about you too. She said her call to you never get through."
