Chapter 806 What do you want to tell me
Huston looked at her wrinkled face and said, “I don’t mean to force you to do anything. I know that you have feelings for Bert, but he has other feelings for you. You should be able to feel it.”
Evelyn bit her lip. Yes, she could feel it. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
The man’s voice softened. “We should all see our hearts clearly, Evelyn. It’s also time to see other people’s hearts.‘
In the end, Evelyn decided to stay in Jewel City. After she made up her mind, the first person she informed was Bert. She took Lucas back to her apartment. Although Huston was reluctant to leave, he did not say anything when he thought of how she did this for him.
When the elevator reached the floor where they lived, Evelyn held the child’s hand and walked to the door. She was a little nervous. She had not had such emotion for many years when
she faced Bert.
Evelyn took a deep breath and unlocked the familiar numbers. With a beep, the door opened.
She pushed the door open and saw a black figure sitting on the
sofa.
“Hello, Mr. Harper!” Lucas opened his arms and ran to him. He threw himself into his arms and kept rubbing his head against his chest. “I’m missing you.”
The stiff atmosphere was broken by the child’s unintentional action. Evelyn frowned, closed the door, and walked to the sofa to sit down.
Bert looked at her and said, “I’m coming.”
With Evelyn’s throat tightened, she nodded and replied, “Yes.”
This time on the phone, she only said that she had something to talk to him about, but didn’t say anything. But when she entered the room, she felt a little depressed. Evelyn guessed that he should roughly know what she wanted to say.
This man had always been very sensitive.
“Uncle, did you miss me?” Lucas looked up at Mr. Harper, his big eyes full of expectation.
Bert softened his expression and said seriously, “I missed you
too.”
Hearing his words, Lucas became even more excited. He took his hand and was about to walk away. ” Uncle, let’s go to have fun. You haven’t played with me for a long time.”
“Don’t worry. I will talk to Mom first. You can go to the room and play by yourself. I will come to you later.” Bert was very scrupulous about the position of the child and didn’t want him
to hear the heavy topics between adults.
Lucas was sensible. He nodded and went into the room to play.
Watching Lucas disappear at the door of the bedroom, Bert said thoughtfully, “He is not strange at all.”
“How could that be? He has lived with you for so long. It’s only been a short time. How could we be estranged…”
Before she could finish her words, the man looked at her with his sharp eyes. His deep eyes were fixed on her. “What about you?”
With Evelyn’s heart tightened and her eyelashes trembling, she blurted out without thinking, “I don’t know how to do it either.”
However, after hearing what she said, Bert chuckled. If she was not shy, she would not have been nervous when he asked this question, and she would not have been so obvious to cover it up.
Instead of asking further, he changed the subject. “What do you want to tell me?”
When they finally got to the point, Evelyn had to let go of the nervousness in her heart and braced herself to say, “I’ve thought a lot these days, Bert. I admit that I thought of Eoland at first. I thought I was used to living there, but gradually I found that I just wanted to avoid the problem at hand. My parents and Lucas’s grandparents are both at home. I can’t be so selfish. I have to be responsible for myself and them.”
