Chapter 458 Enemies on a Narrow Road
In order to persuade her to stay, he used both soft and hard
tactics. His attitude was unprecedentedly humble. It was not that she was not moved, but when Evelyn thought of Mia, it
was as if there was a fishbone stuck in her throat.
Evelyn cared so much because she loved this man deeply. She cared about whether he belonged to her or not. She cared about everything about him.
Just as Evelyn was in a daze, her phone vibrated again.
“I won’t let Mia disturb our lives again as long as you can come back.”
If this had happened before, she would have agreed without hesitation. But now she had too many scruples. Evelyn was afraid that she would make the same mistake again if she was not careful. She was not a simple person. She had experienced too much, so she was particularly cautious.
After a pause, Evelyn typed a line of words on the screen, “I’ll think about it.”
Evelyn clicked and sent it.
The phone screen dimmed as she walked, but the man didn’t reply. Evelyn turned off the light and quietly approached the
bed. The car was still downstairs.
Evelyn sat back on the edge of the bed and fell on her back.
Her mind was in a mess, and all kinds of thoughts were
running through her mind. She fell asleep. She had a dream.
In her dream, there was Huston, Mia, and herself. In her dream, they went out to travel together and encountered danger. Huston pulled Mia
However, at this moment, a very familiar face appeared in her
dream. It was Bert. The man seemed to have descended from
the sky and stood in front of her, reaching out his hand to her.
“Ah!” Evelyn suddenly sat up on the bed, sweating profusely. It was already bright outside the window. When the sun rose, she could vaguely hear the sound of car horns downstairs.
Evelyn sat quietly for a moment and raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead. Her breathing was a little rapid. Fortunately, it was just a dream.
However, she soon frowned. She didn’t know why she dreamed of Bert. Maybe it was because all these encounters.
were too strange, which left an indelible impression on her of this man.
“Evelyn, are you up?” Outside the door, Lucy knocked on the
door and asked Evelyn.
Evelyn lifted the quilt, put on her shoes, and got out of bed. She walked to the door and opened it. “Yes, Mom. What’s
wrong?”
“Your father had an operation some time ago. I asked our neighbor, and it said that part of it could be compensated, but you need to go to the hospital to print out the medical records and the overall bill. You can go there when you are free today. Your father and I will go to the medical office to ask.”
There was nothing else to do after Evelyn resigned. She nodded and said, “Okay.”
“You don’t look well. Do you want to have a rest?”
“I just got up. You don’t have to worry about me.”
“Okay, then hurry up and pack up for dinner!”
After Lucy left, Evelyn closed the door, put on her clothes, and washed up. She tied her hair into a bun neatly and concisely. After that, she pulled open the curtains and subconsciously followed the car park last night, only to find that it was empty.
Feeling a little depressed, Evelyn forced herself to look away
and did not dare to think too much about it.
After dinner, Evelyn drove her family’s car to Lane’s Hospital.
