After returning home, I told Lucas about today’s events.
it made him laugh out loud.
He hugged me lovingly and said softly: “But you also need to take care of your own body, protect yourself well.”
“When I’m not by your side, you need to be even more careful and cautious.”
In recent days, old Mr. Evans’s health has been declining.
As the heir to the Evans family, Lucas was busy coming and going all day.
This made Mia and Dylan very anxious.
After all, on the day Lucas takes over, they will never have a chance to turn things around.
During this time, Mia kept sending me various messages to apologize.
It was all to gradually gain my trust, so she could make a move on me on the due date.
“Hazel, I’m so sorry”
“I shouldn’t have spoken in anger that day.”
“For the sake of our ten years of sisterhood, please forgive me~”

I didn’t respond to her, and even set her messages to Do Not Disturb.
Mia called me directly, and I was greeted by a sticky voice.
“Baby~”
“Why aren’t you answering me~”
It made me want to vomit.
I pretended to be confused and replied: “I’m sorry, I was too busy today.”
“Late pregnancy, the baby is about to come.”
“You know.”
There was no sound from the other end of the phone for a long time.
I knew she was calculating how to trick me at this moment.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
“If you’re not going to speak, I’m hanging up.”
I teased her probingly.
Mia immediately became anxious and quickly said: “Don’t! Why don’t you come over this afternoon, I’m quite bored at home alone.”
Trying to pull some tricks again.
I pouted my lips and said with difficulty: “It’s not convenient to move around with such a big belly now, let’s wait until after the baby is born to
visit.”
Mia had no choice but to agree.
The next day was old Mr. Evans’s 70th birthday banquet.
Although Mia and I were both heavily pregnant, we still had to give Mr. Evans face.
At the Evans family’s old mansion, the decor was luxurious and magnificent.
The guests were seated around, very lively.
Lucas would only be able to meet up with me in the evening, so he instructed me to be extremely careful in everything!
With the experience of my previous life, I was very cautious this time.
From travel to servants, all were people I trusted.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Dylan supporting Mia.
Due to forcibly carrying a stillborn, her face was now very haggard.
But when she saw me, she couldn’t help but tease me.
“Oh~ Your dog of a man didn’t come with you?”
With some mockery.
I ignored her mockery and teased back: “Isn’t he busy helping the chairman host the banquet?”
Then I pretended to be envious and said: “I’m so jealous of you, having your husband by your side.”

“Unlike my man, he’s always too busy to get away.”
Dylan wasn’t a smooth talker, and his face darkened after a few provocations from me.
Seeing that there were many people around, Mia couldn’t say anything too excessive.
Then I turned and walked in.
I heard my assistant next to me say: “Their faces turned green at that moment.”
The family banquet began, and the 70–year–old Mr. Evans was still full of vigor.
He stood up and addressed the guests.
“Today, I want to share two pieces of good news with everyone!”
“The first is that our Evans family will soon welcome two new lives.”
He then raised his glass towards Mia and me.
“The second piece of good news is that my younger son will soon be going abroad for further studies.”
“For three years!”
When these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Only Lucas nodded at me.
This was his handiwork.
As the heir to the Evans family, although he couldn’t directly drive Dylan away, he still had this much power.
Dylan trembled with anger, and Mia’s face turned even paler.
Old Mr. Evans raised his glass and said to Dylan: “Your father has high hopes for you, I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
“I won’t go!”
Dylan angrily squeezed out three words from between his teeth.
Old Mr. Evans’s face was displeased at being defied, and he said unkindly: “This is for your own good!”
“Pack your bags tonight and leave immediately, don’t worry about things at home.”
After saying this, the father and son parted on bad terms.
Hearing this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
So does this mean we’re ‘safe now?
