Chapter 1655: Chapter 1654: Set Up

"Hmm, Lucas, didn’t you say you’d wait downstairs for my call? I’m not feeling well right now, can you come pick me up..."

A chilling coldness inexplicably came through the phone.

Charlotte Knight didn’t look at the phone screen at all, her body had already gone limp as she moved to sit on the sofa in the lounge.

She was still wearing ten-centimeter high heels because of the evening banquet. The heels were very thin; the lounge floor was slippery, and the high heels were unstable beneath her feet, she almost fell.

"Lucas... Lucas, have you come?"

After all, it’s been over twenty years without a man’s care.

He’s the only man who has ever cared about her like that, the one who truly gave her warmth.

Not speaking of love, but she heavily relies on him.

"Lucas?" Over the phone, that extremely cold voice of Lucas Knight pierced through, magnetic and lazy, but containing a chilling murderous intent.

Before his sister could react, he spoke again, voice colder than before: "Exactly how much have you drunk..."

Slowly interrogating, not because he doesn’t care about this sister, quite the opposite, because he cares too much, thus asking in an extremely serious manner.

"Bro... Brother, why is it you..." Despite feeling uncomfortable, and with her whole body feeling sore and a bit hot, she wasn’t yet in a state of confusion.

Lucas Knight’s voice is particularly recognizable, a feeling of coldness authority without anger, even though he only said two sentences, she still picked up on it!

"Brother, I didn’t drink much, I attended a party tonight and was in a good mood, so I had a few drinks, sorry I called the wrong number..."

Saying that, she tried to hang up privately.

"Wait!" Lucas Knight stopped her, "Where are you? Tell me the location, I’ll immediately call someone to pick you up."

He wouldn’t allow anything to happen to her.

After the brief exchange, the man seemed to have perceived everything, knowing her situation was off tonight.

Eva Nightingale carried the fruit platter over for Lucas Knight.

He wasn’t in the room, Eva froze for a moment, then directly carried the fruit platter to the study.

Sure enough, he was in the study.

Contrary to appearances of leisure, he was actually overwhelmed with work.

Because they had come to the Eastern Europe Kingdom, Harry North had brought over some important documents, and along with sleeping separately from Eva, Lucas Knight freed up a lot of time to review documents.

Although it’s truly meeting the parents now, Eliana Beckett expressed much satisfaction with this future son-in-law and thoughtfully arranged the best accommodations for them.

However, they all slept separately.

Even though Ella White and Edward White slept in the same room, they did not sleep on the same bed.

Both slept on their own beds!

Eva Nightingale and Lucas Knight slept in separate rooms...

"Hmm, you should be good and not run around, otherwise I’ll worry." Just as she reached the study door, the man’s magnetic and enchanting voice reached her ears.

Eva’s feet suddenly froze!

What? Had she just imagined things?

She had always known he wasn’t the type of man to be fickle, never getting involved with other women outside, but just what did she just hear?

Could it be she was mistaken? Did she just mishear!

Such a beautiful voice, tenderly soothing another woman!

Out of a woman’s sixth sense, she guessed the person he was talking to must be a woman, otherwise, how could he be so gentle...
