The Gorgeous Substitute Wife of Mr. President

Evelyn was relieved when hearing the phone ring.

"I have to answer the phone."Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

She smiled. And Joseph nodded politely.

Evelyn took out her phone. Unexpectedly, her expression changed a little.

It was Lucas who called her.

She felt so guilty. Then she faced Joseph with her back and answered the phone.

"Hi... What is the matter?"

She asked. But the one in the phone remained silent for a moment.

"Where are you now?"

She didn't know if it was because she was afraid of being found out, Evelyn's hands were shaking when she heard his words.

"I am outside. I am going back."

She answered with half-truth and half-lie. Then another one fell into silence again.

"Well? With whom?"

It was a long time before Lucas said with the chilly voice, which made Evelyn feel uneasy. "Uh... with my dad."

The excuse which she made when she went out came to her mind.

Lucas's eyes were even colder when he heard that.

He glared at the two person outside the car window. Then he hung up without saying anything.

Evelyn looked at the phone screen, where showed he had already hung up the phone, frowning. She felt uneasy but couldn't tell why. She never found that not far from them, there was a black Maybach stopping at the intersection. The man sitting inside was exactly Lucas.

His face was so dark and the atmosphere around him was dropped to the extreme.

It was like the severe winter, which could freeze people to death.

Cater also sat in the car, shaking with fear.

"Mr. Hawk, I think it may be a coincidence. Maybe young mistress met a friend on her way home."

He tried to moderate the chill and help Evelyn explain.

But as soon as he finished his words, his cold eyes fell on him.

"I remember her house is in the west of the city. And Is here the center of the city?"

"Well... If young mistress was having lunch with Mr. Davis?"

Cater still tried to explain.

Lucas snorted. "Ok. If it's real like what you said, why she lied to me? Is that man John Davis?"

Cater was immediately speechless.

It took him a long time to come back to himself. And he stared at Lucas with a strange expression.

"Mr. Hawk, are you jealous?"

Lucas froze, and when he collected himself, his eyes were filled with anger. "You speak too much today, are you too leisure lately?"

Cater heard the threat. He quickly covered his own mouth and shook his head.

Lucas saw it and said with cold voice. "Go back."

Then he looked at that person again. His dark eyes was filled with danger.

However, Evelyn knew nothing about this.

She stared at the phone and spaced out for a while. Finally Joseph broke the silence.

"Is something wrong? You look bad."

He looked at Evelyn with concern. He didn't hide his emotions in his eyes.

Evelyn came back to herself. But she couldn't mind what he just said, she just wanted to get back immediately.

Her instinct told her that Lucas's attitude was not right.

"Nothing, but it is getting late. My family is worried about me. I have to go back."

Joseph couldn't hide his sense of loss when he heard this.

But he still smiled gently. "I will send you back. It's late. It's not safe."

Evelyn obviously couldn't let him send her back. Or Lucas would know all these things.

"No, I will just take a taxi."

As she said, she suddenly thought of her best friend. So she said to him. "Well, maybe I can't go to see Amanda. Would you please help me send her back? She is alone here and not familiar with this place. I can't just let her be here alone." Joseph listened to her word, he was unable to refuse her because he was too gentle. He nodded. "Ok, I will send her back for you. When you are free, we can come out again."

"Ok, when we all have time."

Evelyn promised him politely, then said goodbye and took a taxi to go back home.

In less than half an hour, she arrived home.

She paid and got out of the car. She signed when looking at the brightly lit garden in front of her. Then she walked in.

"Young mistress."

The housekeeper saw her and greeted her politely.

Evelyn nodded.

She was intended to go upstairs directly. She seemed to think of something and suddenly stopped.

"Is Lucas back?"

"The young master came back early today and he should be in his room now."

Evelyn nodded and went upstairs thoughtfully.

She stood outside the door but didn't get in for a long time. She thought for a long time.

Finally, she took a deep breath and opened the door.

In this huge room, Lucas was drinking cold wine with his back resting against the French window, with some kind of isolated expression.

The pale-yellow alcohol under the light was particularly enchanting.

With Lucas's flawless face, it was totally a deadly temptation.

Evelyn spaced out for a moment before she collected herself.

She was kind of annoyed. And said to him. "I am back."

Lucas paused when hearing her voice.

He raised his eyes to see the woman at the door. Nobody knew what exactly he was thinking. She slightly opened mouth and asked. "Did you have fun in the Davis'?" Evelyn was about to put down her bag then she froze.

Thinking of the lie she had told, she got up the courage and replied. "Yes."

"Really? I did not go this time. Did not your father say anything?"

Maybe Lucas did see her pale face and asked again.

If Evelyn had not been so nervous, she would have found the chill in his eyes.

But she was too nervous to see his face.

"Well... Dad knows you are busy, he did not say anything."

She kept lying, trying to cover for herself.

Lucas didn't move his eyes at all, still staring at her.

He had given her a chance, but she still tried to deceive him!

As expected, this woman is totally a liar.

When he thought of it, the anger was rolling in his chest.

"Bang." He dropped his glass heavily.

Evelyn was shocked by his actions.

She looked anxiously at this angry man in front of her with confusion and nervousness in her eyes.

Did he find out anything, didn't he?

She thought, then shock her head again.

Even though he had known she lied to him, he would have been like this, but said directly.

As she was puzzled, Lucas stood up abruptly and crossed her side with a tight face.

Evelyn watched him leaving, asked subconsciously. "It's late. Where are you going?"

Lucas paused, then left without looking back.

"Go to work."

Evelyn frowned. It was really a mystery to her.

If Lucas did not find out she was lying, why did he suddenly get angry for no reason?

Did he blame her for being late?

But as soon as he called, she came back, not even said goodbye to Amanda.

It was really hard to guess what he was thinking.

Evelyn curled her lips, picked up the clothes at the end of the bed and entered the bathroom.

She was also relieved.

Anyway, she had gone through this situation.

But she didn't know when she could meet her friends as Evelyn Davis again.
