The Queen Returns—And She's Unforgiving novel Chapter 220

A Cullinan was parked straight ahead, and standing next to it was Lucas.

Evelyn caught his eye immediately, but he was not surprised to see her. His indifferent gaze soon shifted to the person behind her.

As soon as Tiffany walked out and saw Lucas, her face lit up with a sweet smile. She walked right past Evelyn, heading straight to Lucas.

Sebastian frowned at the sight. "I was wondering why he was absent. He was waiting here for her from the start!"

They displayed such intimacy so openly. They should just be glued together already!

Evelyn adjusted her collar, acting like she did not notice them.

At the same time, Brandon walked out and saw Lucas and Tiffany. He walked over and greeted, "I didn't expect Mr. Grant to be here too."

His line of sight paused on Tiffany for a second, guessing that Lucas had to be here for her.

Tiffany smiled gently. "Lucas landed here yesterday for a meeting and will be here with me until the end of my trip."

Brandon was once again astonished by their relationship. The work-busy Lucas had cleared his schedule to be here. This showed just how much he loved Tiffany.

Their conversation was pleasant, but Evelyn did not pay attention to it. She took a look at her watch.

There were cars from the base to take them to the hotel.

Executives and engineers from various companies were already boarding them.

Just then, a coordinator came over and apologized. "One of our cars broke down on the way. We can't dispatch another one on time, and the cars here are already full."

Evelyn glanced over to the cars, thinking of hailing a cab instead.

The coordinator continued out of the blue, "Mr. Grant, would you mind giving Mr. Hill and this lady a ride?"

Tiffany's expression stiffened.

Only Lucas and Brandon drove a car here, but Brandon already had an extra passenger under his charge.

Evelyn furrowed her brow instinctively. Without needing Lucas to say anything, she said coldly, "No need. We'll make our own arrangements."

Only then did Tiffany glance at Evelyn.

Even Brandon found it absurd. Were they really supposed to let Evelyn ride in their car? It would be a disaster.

He chuckled and added fuel to the fire. "Whether Mr. Grant gives her a ride or not should depend on whether his girlfriend, Ms. Moore, agrees to it."

Hearing this, Tiffany raised a brow and smirked ever so slightly.

Sebastian's face darkened. Since when did the wife need the mistress's permission just to ride in her husband's car?

What a reversal of roles!

Lucas looked over, remaining calm and collected.

"I don't think we said we needed help," Evelyn said coldly. It was as if she was begging Lucas and Tiffany for it! They were being far too self-absorbed.

Brandon did not expect Evelyn to say that. Was this some kind of reverse psychology?

He observed Lucas subconsciously.

Thankfully, Lucas was not attracted by Evelyn's "aloofness".

Evelyn looked up and caught sight of the hotel logo.

She realized that this hotel in Pearlia was under Grant Group's umbrella.

"Originally, the rooms were pre-arranged for the joint inspection tour by the government. Ms. Moore is allergic to the essential oils used in the standard rooms, so to avoid showing favoritism, Mr. Grant upgraded the rooms for everyone," Tim added.

Sebastian murmured to Evelyn, "What? Are we supposed to praise him for being so thoughtful and caring?"

Evelyn had no idea Lucas could be that meticulous. She did not respond, and certainly did not take it to heart.

As they entered the elevator, Tim and another executive from a materials company, Kent Tucker, took the opportunity to chat with Sebastian about Flying Seal Group's project.

They chatted with great enthusiasm, and Sebastian answered their questions with ease.

At one point, they brought up the Artificial Bee Colony algorithm used in the flight system.

Sebastian brought Evelyn into the conversation, allowing her to explain the technical aspects of the system in a clear and logical manner.

At first, they did not think much about her, but they were soon drawn in and visibly impressed.

Tim and Kent exchanged astonished looks and started to size Evelyn up.

They had assumed that she was just Sebastian's assistant, but she left a jaw-dropping impression on everyone.

Her technical expertise was on a whole other level!

Who knew Sebastian had such a talent hidden by his side?
