Chapter 216

Maria did not notice anything wrong with Evelyn's tone because she was as calm as usual.

Maria then asked with concern, "I thought both you and Lucas could come back and stay here. Have you settled in, then? Do you want me to arrange a housekeeper for you guys?"

Lucas had many properties under his name. Once he picked one according to his needs, he could get someone to go over and clean it up as soon as possible. However, since both Lucas and Evelyn were busy with work, they would hardly be home.

Evelyn replied gently, "There's no need for that, Grandma. We've taken care of everything."

"Alright," Maria replied. She could not help but ask, "Why did you guys suddenly want to redo the renovations?"

It was all fine when they were staying there, was it not? It had only been a little over three years since they first renovated it.

She clearly remembered that Evelyn worked hard on the place back then.

Evelyn looked away for a moment. At last, she calmly said, "Maybe it's to get rid of all the bad memories from the past and start a new life."

Perhaps Lucas was not erasing their marital home, but the three years he had unhappily spent with her. It was as if she had never existed at all.

Maria did not notice what Evelyn was implying. She subconsciously thought that Evelyn meant she and Lucas were planning to live a good life together. As such, her mood was instantly lifted.
