Chapter 427 Beloved Ones By Each Other's Side

• Evelyn didn’t look back. She looked at the receding street view outside the window, and her bittersweet emotions were somewhat eased by those comforting hands. She glanced at the faint reflection of the man on the windowpane, which wasn’t very clear. He didn’t look at her, instead, he kept his gaze fixed ahead. But he comforted her silently. Evelyn clenched her hands tightly and warned herself not to think too much about it. Forty minutes later, the car stopped in front of Grace’s private apartment. After the long journey, Lucas had already dozed off. Evelyn woke him up softly, took the child’s hand, and got out of the car.

• Org. come up. I’m worried that Grace might feel uneasy.” She looked as if she was afraid that he would follow her. He didn’t intend to do that at first, but her emphasis now bothered him. “Go ahead.” Evelyn led her child into the elevator. The doors closed, and they watched as the numbers climbed up one by one. It wasn’t until they reached the thirteenth floor that the man withdrew his gaze. He slightly lowered his eyelids, and his long lashes cast a shadow on his eyelids. “Let’s go, back to the villa.” Evelyn’s heart soared along with the ascending numbers in the elevator.
• She felt anxious and uneasy, but more than anything, she felt nervous and excited. It had been five years since they last met, and she couldn’t contain the exhilaration in her heart. “Ding—” The elevator stopped on the thirteenth floor, and as the doors opened, Evelyn stepped out. Her heart was pounding wildly, and she walked up to the door based on her memory, raising her hand and lowering it, repeating the motion several times but lacking the courage to knock. “Mom?” Lucas raised his little head and looked at her in confusion, not knowing what she was doing. Evelyn took a deep breath. Just as she was about to knock on the door, it opened from the inside. The gap between the doors became wider and wider.
