Chapter 357
When Lucas heard this, he couldn't help hugging Evelyn hard.
She wasn't the only one. Actually, after the doctor announced that she might not survive, he thought he would lose her. "No, you're alive now, aren't you?"
Lucas kissed Evelyn on the top of her hair, gently coaxing her with red eyes.
It was his tone that made Evelyn even more upset, as she clutched at Lucas's clothes, sobbing.
"It hurts..."
Since Evelyn was crying too much, her wound was accidentally torn.
And her cheeks, which had been flushed with tears, turned pale, she gasping.
Lucas heard her complaining of pain, pressing the call bell and calling back the doctor, who had been away for a while.
The doctor thought something was wrong, hurrying back.
It turned out that she was only crying so hard that her wound was accidentally torn, so the doctor was just amused.
Still, he pressed his emotions, urging. "Mr. Hawk, Mrs.Hawk is not fit to get too excited right now. The wound has just been stitched up, so it will be all right when it heals." Lucas knew he'd made a mistake, but he wasn't embarrassed, as he was just very worried about Evelyn.
"Is there nothing to stop the pain?"
He asked, not wanting to see Evelyn feeling sick.
The doctor understood his intention, but did not agree with him.
"There are pain relievers, but they have a very negative effect. As a doctor, I don't recommend them to patients."
Lucas had only been trying to ask, but when he heard about the side effects, his idea disappeared.
"Nora, let's put up with it. You'll be all right after two days."
He coaxed Evelyn, his face full of tenderness.
The pain had calmed Evelyn down, at least for now.
However, when she saw the love in his eyes, she became confused again after managing to calm down.
Fortunately she managed to hold back, and though she still sniffled now and then, she was not quite as excited as before.
When the doctor found out, he offered to leave.
After the doctor left, Lucas watched Evelyn as he wiped tears from her face.
Seeing her calm down, he worded his inquiry carefully. "Nora, can you tell me exactly what happened that night and how you got hurt?" When Evelyn heard this, she wanted to express her dissatisfaction, but it meant that her identity would be exposed if she did this. Her identity cannot be exposed!
Futhermore, she had no idea what had happened that night.
After all, it was Nora who was arrested by those people. She was afraid that what she said here was not the same with John, which would make Lucas suspect her.
She thought, looking down, and hiding her apology in the shadow of her long eyelashes.
"Lucas, I don't want to say what happened that night, so can I stop talking about it?"
She looked at Lucas imploringly.
Lucas thought she was scared, so he didn't force her.
"Well, if you don't want to say it, let's not talk about it. Have a good rest. I'll be right here with you."
He coaxed Evelyn gently.
Evelyn was moved and ashamed by his words.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Just as she was getting ready to rest, she saw John coming in the doorway out of the corner of her eye. Her eyes suddenly turned cold, like a knife shining with cold light. Lucas didn't notice the change in Evelyn because of his perspective.
But John coming in, saw it.
He was shocked but understood why the woman was looking at him like that.
But he thought of the purpose of this time, he staring back with warning.
Evelyn was shaking with anger that John had not only dared to appear in front of her, but also had the courage to threaten her after what he had done.
Lucas was also aware of Evelyn's feelings at this point, he asked with concern. "What's the matter?
As he spoke, he looked over Evelyn's eyes and saw John standing in the doorway.
"There you are."
He frowning, thought Evelyn's attitude was strange, but he didn't think much about it and greeted John.
"Yeah, I heard Nora wake up, so I come over to see her."
John played the role of a good father, after replying, he looked over, asking her with concern. "Nora, how are you? If there is anything you want to eat, I will ask the servants at home to cook some of your favorite dishes for you these days." In the face of his insincere concern, what Evelyn remembered in her mind was how he ignored her that night.
She, turning her head aside, and pretending she was out of spirits, didn't want to respond.
Lucas thought she was tired, telling him briefly. "Her condition is stable for the time being, but doctors need to keep her under observation for some time."
Just then, his cell phone rang. It was from the office, so he had to answer it.
"Nora, I'm going to answer the phone. If you need anything, ring the bell or ask someone to call me over."
He, taking his cell phone, told Evelyn.
Evelyn's face softened as she faced him.
"Then go and answer the phone."
Lucas nodded, walking to the door.
He didn't forget to tell John when he passed by. "Please, John, keep an eye on Nora for me."
John, of course, would not refuse. He smiled obsequiously, agreeing.
It wasn't until Lucas came out of the room that he stopped smiling.
After making sure Lucas was gone, his face became gloomy, closing the door.
Evelyn's eyelashes twitched as she heard him close the door.
She could detect John's approach, but pretended not to see it.
John didn't care about her indifference, he confronted her. "Did you ever say anything to Lucas that you shouldn't?"
Evelyn glanced at him coldly, turning her head aside and ignoring his words.
John looked at her, screwing up his eyebrows.
"Evelyn, I'm talking to you. Please pay attention to your attitude."
Evelyn looked at him, who was with anger all over his face, then she raised the corners of her mouth coldly.
"This is my attitude to you now, and if you are not satisfied, you can leave!"
John was so angry, and yet, thinking of his purpose, he managed to hold back his emotions.
"If you don't want your mother in danger, you'd better remember what to say and what not to say."
Evelyn became furious when she heard him threaten her with her mother.
"You can have a try!"
She stared at John with angry eyes.
John didn't mind, grunting coldly. "Anyway, remember what I said. If we're in trouble because of you, I won't be well off, and neither you nor your mother will be alive!" Evelyn was furious, and a little frightened in her heart.
She was not afraid alone, but she did not want to involve her mother in.
She clenched her fists saying nothing.
John watched her fall silent, then spoke of his purpose this time. "And if Lucas asks about that night, tell him what I told you."
He simply told her about the experience of Nora on that day, and finally he did not forget to warn her. "Remember, don't say the wrong thing!"
