Chapter 219

Maria smacked Lucas' arm and hissed, "Come on, you silly brat! Why didn't you talk to Evie? Can't you change this character trait of yours?"

She noticed that Lucas had only paid attention to the books ever since he returned. It was as if those books were more attractive to him than Evelyn.

Mason heard what Maria said. He poked fun at Lucas and said, "Well, he's afraid Ms. Reed won't want to leave anymore if he was nice to her. All women are very soft-hearted, you see."

This was especially the case for Evelyn, who was madly in love with Lucas.

Lucas did not think much about what Mason said. He just ignored him and ended the call.

"Why are you still standing there? Take Evie to the office." Maria did not feel at ease letting Evelyn leave on her own, so she dragged Lucas out the door.

As soon as Evelyn closed the trunk, she said gently, "It's fine, Grandma. There's no need for the trouble."

Lucas raised his eyebrow. He certainly did not have the intention of giving her a lift back.

He curled his lips and said, "See, Grandma. Evie can do it herself."

Evelyn stopped in her tracks for two seconds because he'd called her "Evie". It was barely noticeable, but she frowned a little.
