Finding Love in the Boss’s Embrace After Divorce novel Chapter 288

Chapter 288 Drunk and Disorderly 

The next morning, Evelyn woke up not from the alarm clock 

but from her cold and sore body. The first thing she did when she got up was to see if the man beside her was still there. 

It was expected but unreasonable. He was not here. 

Following the previous late return from work and staying out 

all night, now he couldn’t even be seen in the morning. 

With a self-deprecating sneer, Evelyn didn’t know how to face 

1. She was even used to this “life pattern” where she couldn’t 

see him. 

She had drunk too much last night, and only a few scenes flashed through her mind, including him bringing her back 

from the bar. 

After sitting quietly for a while, Evelyn got up, put on her 

shoes, and walked into the bathroom. Her clothes from last 

night were still left in the bathroom, which was enough to show how fierce the “battle” was. Huston had been venting his 

anger on her almost the whole time. She was unwilling to do that, but they knew each other too well. She would lose herself completely with a simple gesture, succumbing to his control. 

Standing in front of the mirror, Evelyn pulled open a corner of her nightgown. Her body was covered in marks left behind by Huston. The bruises interweaved, creating a ghastly sight. 

Ever since the two of them officially got together, he had rarely been so violent. Even when they were in bed, he still 

cared about her feelings. Last night, he had lost his mind. 

Evelyn didn’t dare to look at him for fear that she would lose. 

control of her emotions again. She turned around, took off her 

nightgown, and took a hot shower calmly. 

After taking a shower, her body didn’t feel relaxed but even 

heavier, and her head was dizzy. Evelyn forced herself to 

drink a glass of oatmeal to perk up and then took a taxi to the 

office. Thankfully, she wasn’t late. 

After the morning meeting, she received a call from Grace. 

“Are you all right?” 

Her voice was still a little hoarse. It was obvious that she had 

just woken up. 

Evelyn walked to the emergency exit and said, “I’m fine. How 

are you? Where did you sleep last night?” 

On the other end of the line, Grace paused for a moment before continuing, “I’m in the hotel.” 

The two of them knew each other so well that they could tell 

that something was wrong with each other. Evelyn frowned and asked, “Did anything happen to you last night?” 

“I’m fine. What could have happened to me…” Grace 

deliberately raised her voice, but she couldn’t hide the guilty 

conscience in her words. 

Evelyn asked in a low voice, “How did you get to the hotel last night? Did someone pick you up?” 

At this point, it was very difficult for Grace to hide what had 

happened. With the relationship between Huston and Matt, 

Evelyn would find out sooner or later. 

So she told Evelyn everything that had happened last night. 

“After we arrived at the hotel, as you know, I had a bit too 

much to drink, and my mind was a bit fuzzy. I don’t remember 

the specifics, but I recall being in the hotel with Matt. As 

for how we ended up sleeping together, I honestly don’t
