Chapter 570 From Extravagance to Frugality Is Difficult
“But Lucas…”
Before Evelyn could finish her words, she was interrupted by Bert. “There is a safety seat.”
At this point, Evelyn couldn’t insist. After getting off the plane today, he came to pick her up. She had to
follow his wishes.
After instructing Lucas, Evelyn sat in the passenger seat.
Lucas watched his mommy walk away and reluctantly pouted. “Uncle, you’re so annoying! You always
want to occupy Mommy. Mommy is mine!”
Bert glanced coldly at the child in the rearview mirror. “Without me, where would you be?”
Evelyn fastened her seatbelt and looked speechlessly at the two bickering. She touched her ears and
found that they were shameless. The old one is not tolerant, and the young one is not humble.
In particular, Bert looked like he minded it.

you give in a little and argue
with him?”
Before the man could speak, the child in the back seat heard his mother’s words and knew she was on
his side. He felt a little embarrassed and said, “That’s right. Uncle, how can you hold it against me? I’m
still young. You’re an adult. You can’t bully me.”
“I bullied you?” Bert muttered, “I’ve been so good to you.”
Despite what Evelyn said, when she heard what Lucas said, she still had to educate him. She turned to
look at Lucas and said, “Lucas, don’t talk back to Uncle.”
Bert loved Lucas dearly. It is love. Initially, she didn’t have much income from her work and could barely
make a living. She couldn’t meet the material needs of the child at all. He prepared everything for
Lucas. He sent different things to her every day. They were all the best.
In addition to asking her to help deal with the daily trifles, Bert didn’t ask for too much. They had kept a
distance from each other for the past three years. She was grateful to him and hoped Lucas could
understand her kindness since he was a child and treat Bert better.
After being scolded, Lucas turned his little head out of the window. He was silent and angry, just like
the person in his impression.
Blood ties were truly a wondrous thing. Even though they had never lived together, some things in their
bones seemed to have been branded.
Disappointment flashed across Evelyn’s eyes. Would she still think of that man after so many years?
With Lucas around, Evelyn would think of it. However, she rarely thought of it, so her heart wouldn’t
hurt so much when she thought of it. Even the
person’s appearance was blurred.
After more than three years, Evelyn had let it go.
Evelyn withdrew her gaze and looked at the rapidly receding street scenery outside the window,
unwilling to continue thinking about it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter returning home, Lucas entered his room and fiddled with various toys. They were all kinds of
combination cars that Bert had bought for him this time.
The boys preferred these. The toys were limited editions. If Bert bought them happily, Evelyn wouldn’t
say anything, but she would feel sorry for the money.
Evelyn poured a glass of water and said, “I know you love Lucas, but you don’t have to buy so much.
The child is young, and it’s all entertainment. It’s a waste of money.”
“Do you think I care?” Bert lowered his head and ground the coffee beans. The mellow and fragrant
beans were stirred into fine powder.
Evelyn knew that he didn’t care about it. He was in the capital investment business, and his value was
immeasurable. What he played was a game that made money. This was nothing to him.
However, Evelyn put down the cup in her hand and said in a serious tone, “I can’t rely on you for the
rest of my life. If you get used to him now, when he becomes independent, Lucas will not get used to
our life.”
This was the principle behind how it was easy to go from simple to luxurious and difficult to go from
extravagant to frugal.
