Chapter 487
Evelyn was a little moved by Clyde's proposal, but she wanted to stay in sight of Lucas in her last days.
"Thank you, Mr. Lowell, for your kindness, but I haven't changed my mind about the company. If I had to change, I will choose your group first."
His eyes flashed with disappointment, but he said nothing.
Two people continued to talk, later, because the company's business, Clyde went first.
Evelyn did not leave immediately, but stayed and sat in the cafe for a while.
She looked out of the French window at the busy street and her thoughts drifted away.
The brief conversation had only reminded her that, seeing that she had less and less time left, was she really going to waste that much more time quarreling with Lucas? No, she didn't.
She impulsively ran out of the cafe, stopped a taxi and reported home address.
More than ten minutes later, she stood at the door of Hawk, but did not go in.
She looked at the familiar scenery, she was like a deflated ball and lost all her mind, she lingered in the doorway.
What will she say and do when she sees Lucas?
Evelyn struggled and even tried to turn away several times, but she was overcome by her thoughts.
She took a deep breath and walked heavy with expectant steps toward the house.
As she walked down the long corridor, she was ready to turn into the living room, she heard the voice of Mo Li.
"Sir, this is the soup I asked the kitchen to make for you. Take it while it's hot."
She followed the sound, and saw Mo Li came up to Lucas with a cup of soup in the garden.
Lucas glanced at Mo Li and leaned back in his chair. "put it on the table."
Mo Li opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but Lucas did not listen to her, he closed eyes.
Because yesterday John said he would take Evelyn home, he took a day off to wait at home.
Mo Li was not willing to leave, she thought to put Nora out of the house, she can be with Lucas alone and he will like her slowly.
Unexpectedly, the woman was gone, but he seemed to return to before, became a cold human.
Mo Li bit her lips, she was not daring to disobey his order, she only put down the soup behind Lucas.
She looked after Lucas obsessively, only this time she can release her repressed love.
Evelyn took a full view of Mo Li's love, and then looked at Lucas, who was completely unconscious in front of her. And she felt bad in her heart.
She could see, Lucas was sure about Mo Li. Or how he did not notice her hot gaze.
She should have known that it would be different for Mo Li to stay with Lucas and be his confidant.
She had the naivety to think that she was his wife, and that she was fundamentally different from other people, so of course Lucas trusted her a little more. Now she could see what she was in his heart.
She looked deeply at Lucas and turned away.
Half an hour later, she returned to the old town.
As she turned into an alley, she tripped by something and fell forward.
Before she could exclaim, she fell on something which was soft and snorted.
"Ah-"
Evelyn jumped up from the floor. She took several steps back.
When she had recovered herself, she took a look by the night-light, and saw a man lying where she had fallen.
His hair was messy with mud, she could saw his appearance, the clothes on the body was dirty, thick bloody smell emanated from the man. "Hello, are you still alive?"
"
Evelyn was scared, but she forced herself to ask.
The man made no response and lay motionless on the ground.
Evelyn had no choice but to proceed with caution.
'Hello, wake up!
She poked at the man with her hand, but there was no response.
This alley was not far from her home, and it was good to save a man who was dying, Evelyn pulled the man to the rental house with all her strength.
The man was dragged along by Evelyn's stumbling, all the way down, he filled with many new injuries.
By the time they finally got back to the rental house, Evelyn was exhausted, sitting on the ground breathing heavily.
It took her a while to recover, dragging the man onto the sofa and taking water to clear his wounds.
Fortunately, she still kept the old medicine at home, not expired, otherwise she did not know how to save the man.
An hour later, Evelyn finally dealt with his wounds and cleaned him.
Seeing under the lamplight, the man's angular face was very handsome, but he lost much blood and looked pale, he was half naked, sticking a lot of strange bandages, he was looking very funny. This man's identity should not be simple, right?
Evelyn stood on the edge of the sofa, looking at the man, thinking about the television she had watched.
It was also at this time that she was only belatedly aware and aware of what trouble she had picked up.
"I wonder if it's too late to throw people out now."
Evelyn stare at the man faintly, she finally did not make this decision, "I keep you one night, tomorrow morning when you wake up, leave my home!"
Then she brought him a blanket and covered him with it. Then she went into the room to rest.
In the middle of the night, Evelyn vaguely heard the dull sound of something falling to the ground, which made her sit up in bed.
She was stunned, then she realized that the voice came from the living room. Suddenly she thought of the man she had placed in the living room. She got out of bed quickly, put on her slippers and went out.
With a bang, she turned on the light and saw the man who should have been lying on the sofa fall to the ground, his pale face showing an abnormal flush, his forehead covered with sweat and his body still shaking. Evelyn started and hurried over. "hey, are you all right?"
She tried to lift him onto the sofa, but as soon as she touched the man's arm, she saw that his body temperature was alarmingly high.
"It's hot."
Evelyn drew back her hand in surprise and helped the man onto the sofa. She was about to turn around and look for some antipyretics when she was caught by the wrist. "Don't go... Don't go..."
The man clutched Evelyn so hard that Evelyn felt pain.
"I won't go, clam down, just to get your medicine, you are sick."
Evelyn had no idea who the man thought she was, and she had to coax him in the situation.
Fortunately, the man got Evelyn's promise, he gradually let her go.
Seeing Evelyn originally white wrist spread a circle of red mark, she did not pay attention to it, she turned around to seek antipyretic.
When the man took the medicine, Evelyn took cold water to physically cool him down.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
It took most of the night for the man's fever to abate, and Evelyn was so tired that she fell asleep beside him.
