"What's wrong?"
Zion saw Evangeline running out in a hurry. Before he could figure out what was going on, he was pulled by Evangeline by the collar.
Her eyes were slightly red, as if something was jumping inside. Unfortunately, she was so stubborn that she didn't let the crystalclear liquid fall, but her appearance made Zion's heart ache involuntarily.
"Who bullied you?"
His voice suddenly sank, and he quickly looked around. When he met Mango's worried eyes in the room, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Mom?
No way!
Could it be a problem between a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law?
Zion sighed.
"If my mother bullies you, I have to talk to my dad and let him talk about his woman."
"Zion."
Evangeline suddenly opened her mouth.
Previously, she had felt so wronged that she had wanted to question Zion severely. But now, when she faced him and heard that he was concerned about whether she had been bullied, she suddenly felt that perhaps Zion also cared a little about her.
"Hmm?"
Zion's voice was low, but his serious face made Evangeline unable to say what she wanted to say.
"I miss you. Why did you turn off your phone today?"
Evangeline swallowed her words and grabbed Zion's collar tightly with both hands. She could not feel relaxed.
When Zion heard about his phone, he realized that he hadn't turned it on yet. However, when he thought of the reason why his phone had been turned off, he felt a little embarrassed.
"Sorry, there were some things that I didn't understand at the moment. I was afraid that the phone would affect my mood, so I turned it off. Later, I forgot about it. Sorry for worrying you."
"It's okay. It's good that you're back."
Evangeline finally let go of Zion, but she was a little depressed. Although she tried hard to force a smile, she couldn't do it at this moment.
She had too many questions to ask Zion, but in the end, she became timid when she was about to kick him.
"What if I annoy Zion? " she thought to herself.
Zion didn't like her aggressive attitude, did he?
Otherwise, why would he hide from her when he was a child? And why did he hide from her for so many years?
Evangeline suppressed her emotions. All sorts of emotions were churning in her heart. No matter how hard she tried, the suffocating feeling of not being able to move it made her feel like she was about to collapse.
Zion also noticed that something was wrong with her. He couldn't help but worry.
"What's wrong? Did my mother really bully you?"
After that, he grabbed Evangeline's hand and walked away. He frowned as if he was going to argue with Mango, which scared Evangeline a lot.
"No, she didn't bully me."
Evangeline quickly pulled him.
Zion obviously didn't believe it.
Evangeline was a woman. Although she was strong and rarely cried, she was obviously holding back.
"Does his woman still need to hold back her emotions?" he thought.
Who would make her feel this way?
Except for his mother, then it would be him.
