Chapter 23
- *EVELYN’S POV*
- I had been waiting for Lucas to return after he left to take a call, but he was nowhere to be found. The meeting had ended, and the room was emptying, but Lucas still hadn’t come back. I felt a gnawing sense of unease. It was best to confront him now and get to the bottom of whatever was going on.
- I pulled out my phone and dialed his number, but his line was still busy. Frustration bubbled up inside me as I scanned the room, hoping to catch a glimpse of him. Suddenly, several decorators approached me, asking for guidance on what needed to be done next.
