However, John Davis didn't give up and kept calling her.
Evelyn answered the phone with impatience, "If I remember correctly, it's not time to meet, and..."
She paused, "Thanks to your daughter, I'm injured right now!"
John Davis asked nothing about her injury. He said in a very bad tone, "I call you not for meeting."
"Then what's wrong with?"
He would never contacted her if there was something good happening. So Evelyn had been prepared for that.
"Recently, I'm going to set up a dyeing factory. You can mention that to Lucas that if his company need cloths when designing clothes in the future, they can import the cloths from our factory."
Hearing that, Evelyn only felt extremely ironic.
Obviously, she mentioned her injury voluntarily, but without a word of concern, he just directly put forward such a ludicrous request.
He was really greedy and rapacious.
Evelyn raised the corner of her mouth and sneered, then she directly refused, "No way! Last time when you want to get the shares, I have left a bad impression on Lucas. This time, don't imagine to get any benefit from him."
"It's just cooperation, and I will not get any benefit from him!"
Hearing John Davis' angry voice, Evelyn smiled more coldly.
If that was not the benefit, what would be it?
"Anyway, it's impossible, it's impossible."
She kept a firm attitude.
"You!"
Even though they were just talking on the phone, she still could feel John Davis was angry but she didn't change her mind at all.
Suddenly, John Davis laughed, perhaps because he was extremely angry.
Evelyn could not help frowning, and she felt a little frightened.
"Don't forget that you must submit to me now!"
It was obvious she was threatened by these words.
Suddenly, being angry, she clenched her fists tightly, then loosened, took a deep breath, and she said, "I know". Then she hung up.
She threw her cell phone aside, leaned back against the bed and raised her head, with beautiful little face filled with distress.
This time, how should she mention that to Lucas?
And how would he react to that?
Disappointed?
Or bored?
Once thinking that he would be bored of her, Evelyn was inexplicably irritated. She couldn't help scolding John Davis.
Lucas went out to answer the phone and never came back until the dinner.
Seeing that Lucas came into the room with a tray, Evelyn was quite surprised.
Lucas laid down the plate calmly.
Evelyn regained her consciousness and asked, "Why it is you who bring it here?"
Lucas didn't explain much, but said simply, "Eat your meal while it's still hot."
Since he did not say the reason, Evelyn did not ask any more questions. She picked the meal up, lowered her head and ate it.
Lucas looked at her quietly, with a pair of eyes as deep as a pool, in which there was no any emotional change.
This time, what happened to her was caused because of his mother's fault. Anyway, it was his mother who owed her.
So what he could do was to compensate her on the behalf of his mother.
His eyes really could not be ignored.
Evelyn bit the chopsticks and looked hesitated.
Suddenly, she raised her head, and unexpectedly looked at his deep eyes, which seemingly made her heartbeat pause.
Move her eyes away in panic, she felt uncomfortable and asked, "Did you eat dinner? If you don't eat, go downstairs and eat."
If he continued to stare at her, she would not eat a meal at free and ease.
Her eyes flickered, but she did not dare to look at him. Lucas slightly smiled and asked softly, "What's wrong with your legs?"
