Chapter 382 She Did It on Purpose
Evelyn’s outstretched hand froze, and then she quickly withdrew it and put it on her lap. She felt a little scared. “I took it off when I washed my hands just now. I forgot to wear it. I’ll put it on now.”
She hurriedly took out the diamond ring from her pocket and quickly put it on. She even stretched out her hand to show it to him. “Yes, yes.”
However, Huston did not respond to her. The side of his face was covered with a layer of frost, which was so tense that it sent a chill down one’s spine.
The atmosphere in the car was a little delicate. Evelyn swallowed her saliva silently. She knew that she had stepped on Huston’s weak spot, and her entire body was filled with a stifling aura. She did not dare to say anything, afraid that a single word would become a fuse.
Although Huston didn’t say anything, he sped up more than a little.
At about seven o’clock in the evening, although it was past the
evening rush hour, there were still a lot of cars on the street. The large SUV shuttled back and forth in the traffic. After
holding it in for a long time, Evelyn couldn’t help persuading him in a low voice, “Drive slowly.”
However, as if Huston hadn’t heard anything, he continued to drive at high speed. It took him more than 40 minutes to get there. The car stopped at the gate of the villa. Evelyn felt dizzy, and her face was a little pale.
Evelyn unfastened her seat belt and got out of the car. After standing for a while, he felt less stuffy in her chest.
After a while, Evelyn turned to look at the person sitting still in the car, feeling a little depressed. She opened the door and stared at him silently. “Aren’t you getting out of the car?”
Huston looked at Evelyn. His eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, making it hard for others to see clearly.
Huston didn’t say anything and waited quietly. However, after waiting for a long time, the little woman in front of him was still silent and impatient. He opened the secret compartment and took out a pack of cigarettes. He handed it to his mouth and said, “If there’s nothing else, you can go in first.”
Only then did Evelyn realize the seriousness of the matter. Gritting her teeth, she stepped forward and got back into the car. “I didn’t do it on purpose. Don’t be angry.”
“You didn’t do it on purpose?” Although Huston was asking
her, there was not much trust in his tone.
Evelyn was at a loss for words because she had indeed done it on purpose.
Evelyn was afraid that Lucy would ask too many questions when she saw the ring, so she subconsciously took it off and put it in her pocket. As for why she did this, she couldn’t figure it out. Maybe she was too nervous for a moment.
Huston rolled down the window a little and let the air outside take away the smoke in the car. Although he was extremely annoyed at this moment, he still cared about her feelings.
This kind of care had become a subconscious habit of his.
Neither of them spokes in the car. They didn’t know how to explain it to him.
After a moment of silence, the cigarette between his fingers reached the cigarette butt. Huston reached out to open the cigarette case in the car and put out the cigarette.
Seeing that Huston was about to reach for the other one, Evelyn frowned slightly and grabbed his arm. “Stop smoking. You’ll cough.”
