Lucas had previously worked at the headquarter of the Lamont Group.
In the past few years, he had become a manager.
Moreover, the Bevell family and the Lamont family were relatives.
He could not be compared to his uncle, Maverick, but he was also capable.
When he was transferred, he knew that it was related to Everly.
At that time, he could not believe that Maverick could do this for a woman.
There had been rumors in the company about the relationship between Everly and Maverick. Lucas knew that he is in the wrong for cheating Everly. But it had been five years ago. At first, he thought that his uncle and Everly...
He could not believe that they would be together.
Perhaps because Everly had once been his girlfriend, Lucas thought she is not worthy of Maverick.
Lucas thought highly of Maverick.
So, when he was transferred, Lucas was reluctant.
He didn't expect that not long after he left, there would come such a scandal. As Everly's ex-boyfriend, he was repeatedly mentioned. These days, his old classmates, colleagues all called him and asked about it. Lucas felt embarrassed.
Now, Everly contacted him.
The feeling of inferiority in Lucas's heart was now replaced by this inexplicable feeling of superiority.
She should have contacted him. She had brought him so much trouble!
If the scandal was true, he was no longer on the wrong side.
By blaming Everly, Lucas had not a sense of guilt but thought the whole world owed him.
This was the case for Lucas.
He felt that Everly had let him down. When he picked up the phone, his tone was arrogant. "I didn't expect that Miss Everly would contact me."
Everly was stunned for a moment. Hearing the ridicule in his tone, she lost interest to communicate with him. "I am also surprised that I need to contact you. Mr. Lucas, since we don't want to contact each other, let's cut to the chase. Have you seen the video?"
Lucas was angry.
He thought that Everly wants to ask for her help.
But her attitude was so unfriendly.
Was she so arrogant because Maverick was on her back?
But Maverick had not stood up for her!
Lucas was convinced by his fanciful thought. "I saw it. Everly, did you date me to get in touch with my uncle?"
Everly was speechless.
"I was really blind at that time. Now in the time of need, do you think of me again? But in the past few years, my sense of guilt has inhibited me from finding a wife. What a surprise! You turn out to be a bitch."
Everly was so angry that she laughed out, "Lucas, are you crazy?"
"How dare you scold me?"
"If you were standing in front of me, I would also hit you!"
