The Queen Returns—And She’s Unforgiving Chapter 14

Chapter 14

“Do you not know about it?” Maria was infuriated as she sensed that something was wrong.

She continued, “I booked tickets for you two for a two–day trip at Reis Mountain. Lucas told me he had already given you the tickets when I asked him about it yesterday.”

Evelyn was confused as Lucas hadn’t mentioned anything about it. However, it was clear to her that he did not want to go on a vacation with her and had deceived Maria, hoping to brush things off.

“Grandma, I had something to do at the very last minute, so…”

“It’s the weekend. What can you possibly be doing? Don’t try to cover for the rascal. Evie, why don’t you two go up there now? I’ve already arranged everything for you two. I’ll go and push him.”

Trying to stop Maria from doing so, Evelyn confessed, “Grandma, actually, Lucas and I have already…”

“What about you two?” Maria’s tone softened as she spoke to Evelyn.

It was obvious that Maria did not know that they had filed for divorce. Had Lucas not informed the Grant family about it?

Otherwise, Maria would not have arranged such a trip for them.

Evelyn felt slightly frustrated by the turn of events. Maria was in poor health, and she had a heart condition. Was Lucas just waiting for the right time to break the news to Maria?

If that was the case, Maria might not be able to handle the shock if she were to admit the truth now. She didn’t want to be the bad guy either.
