Chapter 580 Did You Miss Home?

Evelyn tightened her grip under the dining table and could feel two pairs of burning eyes looking at her.

Evelyn turned her head away to avoid looking at his overly handsome face of Bert. Evelyn coaxed

Lucas unnaturally, “How could that be? We won’t be separated from Uncle.”

“That’s great!” Lucas clapped his hands happily and excitedly ate the meat on his plate.

Because of this small incident, Evelyn was a little

uncomfortable, and she was a little absent-minded. Most of her energy was focused on Lucas.

After finishing her meal, Evelyn coaxed Lucas back to his room to play with his toys before returning to

the dining room to clean up the leftovers.

Bert didn’t like strangers at home, like that man, so the cleaning naturally fell on Evelyn.

When she brought plates and cutlery into the washing pool and was about to bend down to wash them,

a hard and warm human wall suddenly covered her from behind.

“Ah!” Evelyn was shocked and exclaimed. She quickly turned around and looked at the familiar face

behind her. “You scared

me!”

Bert glanced at them, lowered his head, and got closer. He frowned and said, “You smell like

barbecue.”

Evelyn didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She pushed him away and said, “Who let you smell?”

“Why did you think of preparing these today?”

“Isn’t it Christmas? It’s just like making something to eat.”

The man curled his lips and looked at her with a meaningful smile. “Is that all?”

Evelyn was too shy to express her feelings. Hearing his question, she nodded with embarrassment.

“I’ve recently been too busy with work to care for family matters. It’s not easy for me to have time.”

“Evelyn.” Bert interrupted her with a smile and helplessness. “Can’t you just say that to make it up to

me? Are you tired?”

Evelyn lowered her head little by little, too ashamed to face

anyone.

“Do you know that apart from work, you put all your emotions on your face?” Bert understood almost

everything when he saw her taking the initiative since he entered the door.

Evelyn was annoyed by his words. “If you knew, you wouldn’t have said it out loud…”

“I’m afraid you won’t admit it if I don’t tell you.” Bert stepped back slightly. “What do you think of what

Lucas said today?”

When he suddenly mentioned Lucas, Evelyn didn’t know how to answer. “Children talk nonsense. He

likes you very much and doesn’t want to be separated.”

“Don’t try to change your mind. Lucas wants you to be with me.” Bert didn’t intend to hide it at all. “It’s

been five years. The child has already said that. Are you not going to get together with me?”

“What are you talking about…” Evelyn felt that it was very hot around and was a little restless. She

struggled to move a small step away from him.

“All right, you want to run away after saying a few words? Where can you go?” Bert completely let go of

her. The kitchen was not turned on, but the dining room corner came in. It was not very dark or bright,

just suitable for telling the truth. The man looked at her with a little tenderness in his eyes. “This is the

happiest Christmas I’ve ever spent.”

Evelyn whispered, “You don’t thank me.”

This man was not just her benefactor. He had done too much for her, second only to Ben and Lucy.

An idea flashed through her mind. Evelyn thought of Ben and Lucy. Evelyn wondered how they were.

All these years, Bert had been helping her keep an eye on the

movements of the two elders in the country. Fortunately, there were no major problems with their

bodies.

Bert noticed the change in her mood. Remembering how she stared blankly at her parents’ photos on

the phone screen several times before, he understood a little. “Are you homesick?”

It would have been fine if he hadn’t mentioned it. But as soon as he said it, Evelyn’s mood was like a

flood that couldn’t be restrained. His eyes suddenly turned red. “Well, a little bit.”

She missed her relatives very much every holiday. Before she came to Eoland, she had no special

feelings for them. After five years of separation, she now deeply understood the meaning of this

sentence.
