Evelyn cleaned the last bowl and put it in the drying machine. "Where are you going?"
"School." He took another sip of water, put his thin lips in the mouth of the bottle, and raised his head. His Adam's apple bobbed a few times. Just drinking some water was damn charming. "We should find a kindergarten for Lucas."
Since Lucas returned home, he had been at home most of the time. Now that their relationship was on the better side, there was no reason for him to stay idle.
It wasn't that she hadn't thought about it, but...
"Isn't it too fast?"
Too fast?
He casually placed the water on the counter and said, "It's unnecessary for children to play every day when they don't go to kindergarten. Will it be fast?"
This was just an excuse to make her feel uneasy.
She bit her lip. In fact, she didn't want to fool him, but she really wasn't prepared. She felt like she was being pushed forward.
Seeing that she didn't speak, he was about to ease his mood, but he didn't give her time to think. "I have an appointment with the director in the afternoon. Come with me to have a look. We'll talk about it when you come back."
She looked at the reflection in the window. In fact, after last night, he had already revealed all his secrets. After five years, the anger in her heart had actually turned into resentment. Even if he sincerely apologized, she would not refuse to admit it.
Looking at the stiff man standing in front of her, who was obviously angry, she pursed her lips, took a step forward, and took the initiative to show her goodwill. "Can you not think so badly of me? I just have a lot of things to consider, and I'm not targeting you."
"Then who are you targeting?" He didn't look like a boss at all, childish and awkward.
Looking at him, Evelyn's heart softened, she said, "I didn't target anyone. Just now, I mentioned Bert just didn't want the conflict to worsen. He is in a bad mood now. I am indeed worried, but it is not a woman's concern for a man. For me, he is also my family. I don't force you to understand. I just don't want you to misunderstand."
