"That's right." Elizabeth nodded with depression and sighed softly, "Lawrence didn't have breakfast, so Evelyn wanted to eat with him and tell him her answer by the way. But before they could eat together, Lawrence received a phone call and was asked to come back to report work."
James narrowed his eyes, but he smiled unconsciously.
Since Ben had sent Lawrence aboard to work on a project, he must be the one who asked Lawrence to report his work!
Tut-tut!
James could not help but despise Benjamin in his heart. He was really cruel and heartless!
However, why was Lawrence always called away when he saw Evelyn? What did this mean?
Bah!
Ben had almost done everything he could to pursue the girl he liked.
James was really surprised!
He didn't expect Benjamin to do this!
Elizabeth raised her head to look at James and asked, "Don't you think ifs depressing?"
Hearing this, James immediately suppressed his smile, stared at Elizabeth's eyes and nodded sincerely, "Yeah, it seems... to be quite depressing."
He was not depressed! He was very delighted!
As a bystander, he hoped that this matter could be more interesting so that he could watch the fun, ha-ha...
"Alas!"
"What are you doing? You're not cute at all when you sigh."
"I am just thinking about Evelyn."
"Whafs there to think about?" James glanced at Elizabeth and then sat down next to her. He took her hand and gently shook it, "Didn't you feel happy just now? Since you know that the road to happiness is strewn with setbacks, don't think so much, okay?"
Elizabeth pursed her lips, "Mm."
"Thafs right."
"But." Elizabeth continued, "Actually, I feel that Lawrence is really a good man. Let's not talk about his family background first. When I chatted with Evelyn just now, I feel that he's a very romantic person."
Hearing this, James wanted to ridicule Lawrence. However, he was afraid that if he really said that, Elizabeth would be unhappy.
"Honey," He sighed lightly, "You are not an unmarried girl who is waiting for love now. You should know that only being romantic is not good. Romance is temporary. If a woman wants to be with a man, she should consider something realistic."
"Oh, that's not what I mean." Elizabeth waved her hands, "What I want to express is that Lawrence is romantic. He's not the kind of person who's especially rigid. If Evelyn can live with him, her life won't be so boring, right?"
"Mm."
"Besides, Evelyn told me that he had said on the phone that he wanted to come back to see her, but Evelyn didn't let him come back. However, he still came back. What does this mean? On the one hand, he is romantic. On the other hand, he really likes Evelyn. Otherwise, how could he come back from England since he's so busy?"
James squinted at her, "Do you think there is such a possibility?"
"Why not?"
James snorted lightly, "If I also like her, do you think that I will wait for her to take the initiative to do that to me?"
He was a man!
Elizabeth pursed her lips. At this moment, she was completely defeated by him.
"Anyway." Seeing that Elizabeth didn't speak, James added, "I just think that Lawrence didn't do something very touching, and he's not as good as you think."
Elizabeth glanced at him speechlessly and then silently turned back.
Alas!
It seemed that... what they were thinking was totally different.
"Hey, honey, why don't you speak?" James pulled Elizabeth's hand, "Do you think what I said is right?"
Elizabeth couldn't help but look at James again. She didn't want to continue this topic and just said, "It's windy today. I've been out for so long. I want to go in."
James nodded and held her hand, "Alright."
While walking into the house with Elizabeth, James thought, "Ben must have known that Lawrence has come back secretly, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't... Forget it. I'd better tell him about it later. By the way... I can watch a show. Ha-ha..."
