Finding Love in the Boss’s Embrace After Divorce novel Chapter 1116

"Did you say that Ms. Graves is a friend of Bert's?" In the face of the child, Huston couldn't ask too directly and tactfully.

Lucas nodded without hesitation, "Yes, but I think Ms. Graves really likes Mr. Harper."

The child's understanding of "liking" might be different from that of adults, but Huston was sure that if it was about Bert, he wouldn't let Ms. Graves meet Lucas unless they had a special relationship.

Although his relationship with Evelyn was very stable, Bert had been with her for five years after all. He was always on guard.

So, he couldn't help asking, "What about Bert? Does he also like Ms. Graves who treats you very well?"

Lucas's large eyes blinked a few times as he nodded and shook his head with some hesitation, "It seems not... When we were in Quartz City, Ms. Graves got angry with Mr. Harper and she left."

Well, I'm happy for nothing.

He had been saying all along that he knew Bert well enough, and he was not the type to easily develop feelings for someone and give his heart away.

Lucas couldn't understand the complexity in the adults' eyes. He cut a piece of steak and put it in his mouth. He looked at Evelyn, who was sitting next to him, and said, "Mom, why aren't you talking?"

Evelyn was quietly playing with the corn on her plate. When called out, she trembled a bit with the knife in her hand. It wasn't that she didn't want to speak, but she simply... didn't know what to say.

She knew nothing about Mr. Harper and Ms. Graves. At this time, she could only smile awkwardly and say, "I am eating. I'm a little hungry."

Finally, back at home, Sadie took Lucas to his room to freshen up. Evelyn entered the master bedroom and closed the door behind her. She let out a heavy sigh, feeling the tension that had built up throughout the day slowly dissipating. When she looked up, she saw a man lying half-reclined on the bed, his eyes filled with a smile.

She walked quickly towards him, relieved to vent, "Who exactly are Mr. Harper and Ms. Graves? Am I close to them? When Lucas mentioned his godmother, was he talking about Grace? Besides Grace, has he acknowledged anyone else as his godmother?"

Setting down the phone in his hand, Huston sat up straighter and spread his sturdy legs apart, pulling her into his embrace. He looked up at her tense yet bright face and said, "You're asking so many questions, I don't even know where to start."

"Just tell me everything you know. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll give myself away. I couldn't even talk tonight. Every time Lucas spoke, I felt so nervous, you know.!"

Before she could finish speaking, a large palm appeared behind her head, gently pushing her down, and he leaned in to silence her with a kiss...
