Chapter 161
After hearing her words, Lucas felt ironic and uncomfortable even though he had known that for a long time.
He looked at Evelyn coldly, and raised the corner of his lips with sarcasm.
"So that's why you waited for me?"
Evelyn was about to explain, but did not know what to say. She just stood in the same place, pouting her lips and pulling her clothes.
Looking at her look, Lucas did not like her behaviors.
It showed that she was sure that he would agree.
His eyes narrowed slightly and he smiled softly. "Are you so sure I'll help you this time?"
Evelyn bit her lips. Just when she was ready to say something, Lucas continued again.
"Nowadays, the Davis Group is like a bottomless pit. Nobody can guarantee the return of investment. Do you think that as a businessman, I will suffer such a loss?"
Naturally not.
Evelyn answered silently in her heart, but even if she knew that, she had to let him promise.
Otherwise, John would not let her mother go.
"Although the Davis Group's crisis is very serious now, it is also a big group anyway. It contains a lot of business. If the Hawk Group can mobilize funds and use these business as a condition, and let the Davis Group give up some, there will be no loss for Hawk Group, even a possible profit, even if the Davis Group can't be saved in the end.
She tried her best to analyze the advantages and hoped to successfully persuaded Lucas.
But as she finished her speaking, the study room was silent.
She looked at Lucas uneasily and was very nervous.
Se didn't know whether it was because she was so nervous that her stomachache, which had never been alleviated, came back again, even with a hint of aggravation.
She gripped her lower lip tightly, and a thin sweat came out of her forehead.
Lucas did not find her strangeness, but thought carefully about what she had just said.
He had to admit that it was really a good idea.
But it was just just good, and even...
"Your plan is really good. It seems that we can get what we need respectively. But once the Hawk Group gives a favor, which means to tell others that the Hawk Group is the Davis Group's reliance."
Saying this, he paused and then laughed and said, "The Davis Group can not only get rid of the crisis but have the Hawk Group as its reliance. It's a good plan to kill two birds with one stone. Who taught you? John."
The last sentence was not a doubt but an affirmation.
Evelyn frowned, knowing that he had misunderstood.
"No, it's my own idea."
She explained softly, but Lucas raised his eyebrows with surprise in his eyes.
It was really beyond his expectation.
Evelyn did not discover the change in his eyes. After saying that, she organized the words in her heart for a while before she spoke again. "The reason why I say that is that I think the Davis Group has today's crisis because of itself, and I think it's better for you to take away the benefits than for others."
She said that, and her eyebrows were wrinkled again.
The pain in the stomach got worse and worse, as if a knife was cutting on her stomach.
Suddenly her face turned pale and her forehead blew with cold sweat.
As if she couldn't stand straight, she staggered back suddenly, and then she hunched up.
"What's wrong with you?"
When Lucas heard the movement and looked up, he saw Evelyn standing shakyly.
He got up unconsciously and went to Evelyn to help her.
Evelyn was stunned to see the man who appeared beside her.
Then she straightened up as if there was nothing wrong with her.
"It's all right."
She broke away from Lucas' support and bit her lip and said, "What do you think of what I just said to you?"
She hoped to get Luc as' answer, so that she could give John a reply and her mother would not be afflicted by that person.
Lucas was dissatisfied with Evelyn when he found that she payed all her attention to the Davis Group.
"Although I am in charge of the Hawk Group, as for the matter of mobilizing a large amount of funds, I need to discuss with the directors in the company. I will not promise you now, but I will take it into consideration." Evelyn looked at his businesslike appearance, with her disappointing eyes.
But she quickly adjusted her mind, took a deep breath and bit her lip and said, "Well, I hope you can think about it."
Lucas nodded. Seeing the situation, Evelyn didn't want to stay here any more and proposed to leave.
"Then I won't disturb you. I will go back to my room and rest first."
She turned around to leave.
However, when she stepped out, a pain in her stomach seemed to reach her nerve, causing her to urgently breathe. Suddenly, she did not even have the strength to stand, and felt dizzy, then she straightly fell down backward. Looking at her movements, Lucas did not go forward at once, but stood still.
He thought the woman was playing a trick to gain an end by enduring bodily suffering and forced him to agree now. "You, don't exercise your wits for personal gain in front of me, or I won't even think about it."
He gave a cold warning.
On the ground, Evelyn did not respond.
He looked at her for a long time, frowning.
Finally, he went over.
"Get up."
He squatted down and pushed her.
Evelyn rolled over unconsciously along his strength, and her pale face was imprinted in his eyes in an instant.
Lucas suddenly looked anxious and slapped her on the cheek.
"Evelyn, wake up."
Evelyn did not respond. He looked very nervous and anxious. He immediately held her and walked to the room. At the same time, he did not forget to ask the housekeeper to call the family doctor. He didn't know how long it took when Evelyn wake up again.
She looked around in a blank way and did not react for a moment. Then in her ears, came out Lucas' voice.
"Wake up?"
Evelyn regained her consciousness and remembered that she had fainted before, then she bit her teeth tightly.
"Thank you for sending me back."
Seeing this, Lucas hummed.
"You clearly know that you have a bad stomach, so you should have a good meal."
He narrowed his eyes and looked dangerous. "Or do you want to take advantage of this problem and rise my sympathy so that you can allocate funds to the Davis Group?"
Hearing his words, Evelyn looked a little sad and worried.
But she could understand him.
"Sorry, I am not deliberate to faint, and I don't think so much. It's up to you to decide whether to help or not. Even if you don't help the Davis Group, I won't say anything. After all, it's not your duty." She stood up and looked at Lucas calmly.
Lucas looked back at her and was unhappy with her attitude of keeping out of the affair.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
But looking at her face which was as white as paper, he could not be angry with her at all.
He stepped forward, breathless, and handed over the cup and the medicine in his hand. "Take the medicine first."
Evelyn was stunned and hesitated to accept them.
"What? You are no going yo eat food, even the medicine now?"
Seeing that she was tardy in taking medicine, Lucas raised his eyebrows and provoked her, "Didn't you just say that you haven't thought of threatening me with the illness? What are you doing now?" Evelyn regained her consciousness, frowned and looked at him, then she took the medicine silently.
Seeing her take the medicine obediently, Lucas' eyes narrowed. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "Doctor has said you have a serious stomach disease. Why is it so serious? How do you catch it?"
