Chapter 1116 Care About His Rival in Love

"Did you say that Ms. Graves is a friend of Bert's?" In the face of the child, Huston couldn't ask too directly and

tactfully.

Lucas nodded without hesitation, "Yes, but I think Ms. Graves really likes Mr. Harper."

The child's understanding of "liking" might be different from that of adults, but Huston was sure that if it was about

Bert, he wouldn't let Ms. Graves meet Lucas unless they had a special relationship.

Although his relationship with Evelyn was very stable, Bert had been with her for five years after all. He was always

on guard.

So, he couldn't help asking, "What about Bert? Does he also like Ms. Graves who treats you very well?"

Lucas's large eyes blinked a few times as he nodded and shook his head with some hesitation, "It seems not...

When we were in Quartz City, Ms. Graves got angry with Mr. Harper and she left."

Well, I'm happy for nothing.

He had been saying all along that he knew Bert well enough, and he was not the type to easily develop feelings for

someone and give his heart away.

Lucas couldn't understand the complexity in the adults' eyes. He cut a piece of steak and put it in his mouth. He

looked at Evelyn, who was sitting next to him, and said, "Mom, why aren't you talking?"

Evelyn was quietly playing with the corn on her plate. When called out, she trembled a bit with the knife in her

hand. It wasn't that she didn't want to speak, but she simply... didn't know what to say.

She knew nothing about Mr. Harper and Ms. Graves. At this time, she could only smile awkwardly and say, "I am

eating. I'm a little hungry."

"Oh," Lucas accepted her explanation without suspicion. He continued eating his steak and brought up another

topic, "Mom, it's been a long time since you've seen Uncle Bert, right? He seems to be looking for you lately. I've

heard him ask about you, his godmother, occasionally."

Evelyn felt her smile was about to give away, so she tried to maintain her composure and replied, "Yes, it has been

a while since I've seen them."

Seeing her discomfort, Huston subtly changed the topic again, "How are your studies going at school recently?"

Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief and realized she had unintentionally cut the corn on her plate into several pieces.

She hurriedly used a fork to eat it, afraid of giving away anything with her expression.

It was just an ordinary meal, but she was trembling with fear.

After finishing their meal and shopping at the mall downstairs, they bought the toys and cars Lucas liked before

driving back home.

Fortunately, Lucas couldn't resist his drowsiness and fell asleep in the back seat. Huston wanted to take this

opportunity to talk to Evelyn about something, but before he could speak, Evelyn made a gesture, afraid of waking

Lucas up.

Finally, back at home, Sadie took Lucas to his room to freshen up. Evelyn entered the master bedroom and closed

the door behind her. She let out a heavy sigh, feeling the tension that had built up throughout the day slowly

dissipating. When she looked up, she saw a man lying half-reclined on the bed, his eyes filled with a smile.

She walked quickly towards him, relieved to vent, "Who exactly are Mr. Harper and Ms. Graves? Am I close to

them? When Lucas mentioned his godmother, was he talking about Grace? Besides Grace, has he acknowledged

anyone else as his godmother?"

Setting down the phone in his hand, Huston sat up straighter and spread his sturdy legs apart, pulling her into his

embrace. He looked up at her tense yet bright face and said, "You're asking so many questions, I don't even know

where to start."

"Just tell me everything you know. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll give myself away. I couldn't even talk tonight. Every time

Lucas spoke, I felt so nervous, you know.!"

Before she could finish speaking, a large palm appeared behind her head, gently pushing her down, and he leaned

in to silence her with a kiss...
