Chapter 579 I Hope Uncle and Mother Can Be Together
Evelyn explained with a smile, “I’ve never tried it before. I’ll make it for you today.”
“Great!” Lucas was happy to hear that and immediately walked around the living room.
It was not difficult to cook BBQ, mainly because it was troublesome to deal with the ingredients. After
all, it
was Christmas, and Evelyn had prepared a roast chicken symbolically.
Evelyn cleaned up all the ingredients, and everything was ready except for Bert.
At 7:30 p.m., the man walked into the duplex apartment.
As soon as Bert entered the door, he smelled a fragrance. He looked up at the dining room and was
used to being alone at home. He was still a little stunned.
Evelyn heard the noise and waved at him. “Bert, change your clothes and come over for dinner.”
It was not the first time they had had a meal together in so many years, but it was the first time for them
to have such a ceremony.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt”
Bert felt as if a small thermometer had warmed his heart. He put down his briefcase, walked to the
cloakroom, changed into his home clothes as fast as possible, and entered the dining
room.
All kinds of fresh vegetables, beef, and mutton were on the table. In the middle was a bottle of high-
quality dried red wine, one of his treasured liquors.
Noticing his gaze, Evelyn shrugged her shoulders in
embarrassment. “I forgot to buy wine, so I opened your bottle.”
Of course, Bert didn’t mind. He pulled out a chair and sat down. He asked, “Why did you think of
BBQ?”
“I was planning to cook and found no seasoning, so that’s all I could do.” Evelyn sat down with Lucas
and handed him a knife and fork. She poured the red wine into the glass, raised her hand, and invited
him to clink glasses. “Happy Christmas.”
It was the first time for Bert to drink with her, so he couldn’t help laughing. But he still clinked glasses
with her and said, “Happy Christmas.”
With a “ding,” the cup made a crisp sound. Evelyn took a deep breath, put it aside, and put the meat
slices onto the fire.
On one side, it was spicy, but on the other, it was not. Lucas is too young, so he can only eat light food.
The atmosphere during the meal was not bad. Bert didn’t talk much during the meal. Thinking of the
company’s affairs, she
habitually told him, “By the way, I plan to move the company to the street next month. You passed by
with me before. Do you remember?”
“Yeah.”
“Now, the team is developing fast, and we must recruit professional talents. The place is too small, and
we can’t afford it. Although the rent is a little expensive, it won’t be enough.” Evelyn was still a little
worried. After all, the high rent in Lownon is mind-boggling.
“You can properly sort out the work and charge according to the simplicity of the lawsuit. No matter how
long it has been established, if you want to expand the company, it should at least look formal and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgrand, and the legal environment should be changed.” Bert only said a few neutral words, which was
also a kind of encouragement for her.
Evelyn nodded. “I agree.”
After chatting, Evelyn asked Lucas, “Do you have any wishes for the new year after Christmas?”
She could take the opportunity to spend more time with him in the next few days.
Lucas stuffed a big mouthful of meat and tilted his head. After thinking for a while, he blinked his big
watery eyes, looked at Evelyn, and then at Bert. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and
excitedly waved a fork in his hand and replied, “Yes! I hope Uncle can be with Mom forever!”
Children said whatever they wanted to say. But when adults heard it, they changed their minds.
Evelyn subconsciously looked to the opposite side and happened to meet the man’s gaze. When their
eyes met, there seemed to be a spark around her, and her face was burning hot.
Lucas seemed to realize that something was wrong with the atmosphere. He raised his head pitifully
and asked, “Mom, will you be separated from Uncle?”
