In the blink of an eye, another two months had passed. Evelyn was receiving treatment abroad. Including the time, she had left before, it had been more than three months. Lucas's second semester was almost over, but he still didn't see his parents.
It wasn't that Huston hadn't thought about flying back to take a look at the child's condition, but it would be harmful to the child if he didn't stay for long. Furthermore, he couldn't explain Evelyn's situation like this.
Every day, the video became what Lucas looked forward to the most. He relied on this small iPad to maintain this family relationship.
However, as time went by, the child's mentality would inevitably fluctuate. Lucy and Ben felt distressed when they saw this. They were old, but there was still a generational gap between them, so they could only find Grace to accompany him out to play.
Grace naturally took it seriously. She heard some things about Evelyn from Matt, but she was already worried and couldn't help her much. Being able to accompany Lucas was also good.
On this day, she took Lucas to his favorite amusement park and amusement hall. She hadn't seen a happy smile on the child's face for a long time, but the smile didn't last long. When it was time to eat, she was no longer as happy as before.
Grace cut the children's steak in front of him and asked while cutting it, "Lucas, it's time to eat. What are you thinking about?"
Lucas shook his head, and there was something wrong with his eyes. "Nothing."
Grace pretended to be sad and looked at him. "Lucas has grown up and has his secrets. You don't want to tell godmother, do you? I'm so sad..."
"Is that so?" Lucas curled his lips pitifully and resisted the urge to cry. "I'm afraid they won't want me anymore..."
"Of course not!" Grace felt as if her heart had been stabbed. Her heart ached and she said, "They will not want Lucas. Your parents love you the most."
"Then why didn't they come to see me?"
Grace didn't know how to explain it to him. She could only say, " Lucas, everyone has their responsibilities. In addition to your parents, your father is a lawyer. He also needs to help others."
