The Queen Returns—And She's Unforgiving novel Chapter 26

Evelyn looked back and met Lucas' dark gaze, and he was holding onto her medical report. Her heart clenched tightly as she lost her composure and snatched it back from him.

"Did you read it?"

Looking at her pale face, he asked, "Why are you so nervous?"

He saw the medical report fall out of her pocket as he made his way toward her, so he picked it up but had not had the chance to look at it yet.

"You're overthinking things, Mr. Grant." Evelyn relaxed, returning to her usual calm and composed demeanor.

Looking at her thoughtfully, Lucas said, "Evelyn, you seemed to love calling me Mr. Grant recently."

She did not explain that it was because Tiffany had brought it up once. Not to mention, they were about to get a divorce soon, so it was only appropriate of her to address him as Mr. Grant.

Shoving the report back into her purse, she asked, "Is something the matter?"

"Are you sick or something?" Lucas did not dwell on the issue as his cold gaze swept over her, showing a rare concern for her.

However, she knew that he did not care at all.

It was especially so after she witnessed how nervous he was over Tiffany's cold. She knew that he was merely being polite by asking about her health.

He was just brought up well. Despite his cold behavior, he had basic manners and knew how to be polite.

In the past, she would have been touched by his empty concerns.

"It's nothing. I also came here to visit my uncle," she replied impassively, out of courtesy.

"Tiffany is sick," Lucas mentioned suddenly.

Evelyn looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

He remained stoic, and the way he discussed his lover's condition so openly with his own wife was almost laughable.

"That day, she had waited for more than an hour when she went to meet Sebastian at the Flying Seal Group. It resulted in her catching a cold," Lucas elaborated, taking out a cigarette.

Just as he was about to light it up, he decided to put it back.

"Be straightforward, Mr. Grant." Evelyn met his eyes. Did he think that Tiffany had caught a cold because she had said something to Sebastian?

Looking at her with a cold expression, he questioned, "Why were you at the Flying Seal Group that day?"
