Chapter 321 Long time no see.
“My master has gone to the Smith Group. Today is the annual meeting, and he may not come back until very late. Otherwise, you should give me the documents first and I will give them to him when my master comes back.”
Evan Hughes wanted to say yes, but an idea flashed through his mind and he shook his head. “Nothing, I have something else to tell him. Just wait here for a while.”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Smell speech, the housekeeper took a look at Suzy Carters, and they just looked at each other, and the housekeeper immediately saw the retreat in her eyes.
“All right, I’ll arrange a room for you first. You go to the room and rest first. If Mr. Old Hughes comes back, I’ll call you as soon as possible. Do you think this is ok?”
“Yes.”
Then the housekeeper took Evan Hughes upstairs, and when she passed Suzy Carters, Evan Hughes” steps unconsciously accelerated a little.
It’s good that Suzy Carters suddenly felt that he just ignored himself, but things didn’t work out.
“Small words?”
Suddenly there was a call from Evan Hughes behind him. Suzy Carters” head was humming and he suddenly turned around and saw the door of the restaurant. Evan Hughes and Li Shuci were looking at each other.
The images that have appeared in Suzy Carters” dreams for countless times are now clearly in front of her eyes, but she is so afraid that she even dares not go forward.
“Hello.” Li Shuci paused, which made Suzy Carters” heart come to her throat.
“Uncle.”
After hearing the uncle Li Shuci’s words, Suzy Carters” heart, which should have calmed down, was still very nervous.
Then Evan Hughes squatted down, hesitated, but still reached out and rubbed Li Shuci’s head.
“Xiao Ci, where are your parents?”
He seemed to ask this question calmly, but he was very nervous in his heart.
Because he is expecting, he is also asking for an answer that he has read countless times.
Under the watchful eye of Evan Hughes, Li Shuci turned to Suzy Carters, but this glance made all three people present very nervous, especially Evan Hughes.
“Is she your mother?”
I feel that three eyes are fixed on myself, and Suzy Carters” back has been wet with sweat.
But Evan Hughes waited so anxiously that he still didn’t wait for the answer he wanted to hear most.
“Aunt, Mommy, what, when, come and pick me up?”
Before Suzy Carters could answer, the housekeeper spoke first. “Sorry, your mommy and dad have gone on a business trip, and it may take another month or so to come back and pick you up.”
“All right.” Li Shuci showed a disappointed look.
And his superb acting skills naturally fooled Evan Hughes, and he didn’t get the answer he expected, and his expression returned to normal and became so indifferent again.
Then Evan Hughes stood up slowly and put his right hand into his pocket in a fist where no one could see it.
The housekeeper said, “Let me take you upstairs first.”
Evan Hughes gave a faint sigh and took a thoughtful look at Li Shu’s words before turning around.
After they went upstairs, Suzy Carters came to Li Shuci, squatted down and hugged him tightly. “I’m sorry, baby, but mom can’t give you the life you want.”
Suzy Carters really blamed herself. She didn’t dare to imagine that Li Shuci was only three years old. How did she recognize her father and with what mentality, she couldn’t recognize him in front of her father.
“Mommy, I’m fine, you laugh.”
Listening to the little guy’s comfort, Suzy Carters finally choked back her tears when she was about to cry, barely showing a smile, but it was even uglier than crying.
Li Shu shook his head like a grown-up, and held out his hand to raise the corners of Suzy Carters” mouth manually. “That’s nice.”
Upstairs at this time, the housekeeper wanted to find a room for Evan Hughes to rest first, but Evan Hughes didn’t want to go, so he stayed in the study and waited.
“Then sit here first, and I’ll make you a cup of tea. Just now, Mr. Old Hughes called, saying that you are on your way back, and you will be back in about 20 minutes.”
Evan Hughes nodded faintly. “You don’t need to mind my own business.”
“Then if you have anything, just let me know.”
“I see, go down.”
After the housekeeper left, Evan Hughes sat on the sofa and recalled what Li Shuci had just said, but he always vaguely felt that something was wrong, as if he had missed any details.
After some thinking, he walked out of the door of the study and bumped into Suzy Carters, so the air seemed to be quiet.
For a while, neither of them wanted to speak first, and finally Suzy Carters wanted to escape quickly before saying the first sentence.
“Long time no see.”
She thought Evan Hughes wouldn’t respond to herself, but the truth was a little unexpected.
“Long time no see.”
This is the first time for two people to speak after a lapse of four years. Obviously, the two people who once loved each other so much are so unfamiliar when greeting each other.
Suzy Carters tried to calm down her emotions and raised a bright smile on her lips. “Aren’t you sitting in the study? Is there anything wrong? ”
“Nothing, I just want to come out for a walk. You don’t need to worry about me, just do your own thing.”
Seeing Evan Hughes look as usual, Suzy Carters didn’t think too much.
“Well, if you need anything, just call the housekeeper. You are familiar with this place anyway, so I’ll go back to my room first.”
With that, Suzy Carters tried to escape, but as soon as she turned around, she heard Evan Hughes” words again. “Where’s the little speech?”
Suzy Carters subconsciously blurted out, “In the bedroom.”
Evan Hughes frowned slightly and watched Suzy Carters” body stiffen.
“In which bedroom? I want to talk to him. ”
Suzy Carters, who has realized that she said something wrong, how dare she say something small in her room?
So she turned and looked at Evan Hughes, and said apologetically, “Xiao Ci takes a nap every afternoon. He should have fallen asleep by now. I’ll let him come to you after he wakes up.”
This is really an excuse that people can’t refuse.
Evan Hughes flashed a different color in his eyes and his tone was very dull. “OK, I see.”
Then he turned and left, and Suzy Carters dared to stride back to his room after seeing him go back to the study.
After a while, Mr. Old Smith came back and went straight to the study.
Suzy Carters hasn’t asked about the relationship between Mr. Old Smith and Evan Hughes since she came back, so she didn’t know what they were talking about in the study, and of course, she didn’t want to ask.
By the time Henric Smith came to knock on Suzy Carters” door, Evan Hughes had already left.
