Chapter 372 Touching the Bottom Line
Huston did not understand why she was so stubborn. It was
just a pajama, and he could buy it for her. Huston reached out
to pull her to his side and comforted her in a low voice, “Just
take it as a gift for her, okay?”
“If I give it to her, it’s a gift, and now she’s wearing it without
asking me, which is forcing me to give it.” This was Evelyn’s
bottom line. She couldn’t compromise at all, and she couldn’t get past her. Today Mia wore her clothes. Would her man be
her tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?
Huston probably had ulterior motives for treating her as a younger sister. Evelyn is afraid Miss Klein has ulterior motives.
Just as the atmosphere fell to a freezing point, Mia, who had been silent since the beginning, suddenly swayed. Then she lowered her head and said in a disappointed voice, “Huston,
I didn’t know Miss Shelton cared so much about it. It’s indeed
my fault. I’m sorry, I’ll change it for you.”
Change it?
Why did it sound like Evelyn had done something wrong when
Mia was wearing Evelyn’s clothes?
Evelyn was really impressed that a person could change his position so quickly as if everything was Evelyn’s fault.
Mia entered the room and locked the door. Evelyn and Huston
stood rooted to the spot, waiting for Mia to give her the
clothes.
Seeing that Evelyn refused to give in, Huston was a little surprised. “Evelyn, what’s wrong with you?”
When Evelyn heard his question, she was furious. “What’s wrong with me? Shouldn’t you ask her this question?”
After all, Huston was a man, and his way of thinking was more
masculine. It was just a pajama, and Evelyn had never worn
it before. Mia could just wear it and not continue next time.
There was no need to make things difficult for her at home in
the future.
But for Evelyn, it was not just a piece of clothing. Mia could
enter and exit Evelyn’s personal space at will and take her
clothes to wear. Mia simply regarded this house as her own.
and could do whatever she wanted.
Mia didn’t feel that she could compromise at all. There was no
sincerity in her apology at all. Mia was just saying it to Huston.
It didn’t take long for Mia to take off her pajamas. Mia didn’t even forget to fold it before handing it to Evelyn.
Evelyn did not stand at the ceremony. After taking it, she looked into Miss Klein’s eyes and said seriously, “Miss Klein,
I don’t like people touching my things without permission. I hope this is the last time.”
There was a hidden meaning in her words. Evelyn deliberately said it to Mia. Her things were hers, and it was not up to her to
decide. She coveted them!
Mia blinked and suppressed her surging jealousy. “I’m sorry.”
Without answering, Evelyn turned around and went into the
bedroom.
Huston glanced at the woman who was standing in front of him with her head lowered. His thin lips parted as he called
out, “Mia!” “Mia…”
“You don’t have to comfort me.” Mia interrupted him for the first time. She pointed in the direction where Evelyn left and
said, “Miss Shelton seems to have misunderstood. Go and
comfort her.”
“Then you…”
“I’m fine.” Mia smiled and hid the light in her eyes. “I’m sorry,
