Chapter 465 The Desire to Being Satisfied
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them looked at each other calmly. Neither of them spoke, and there was no need to say anything. They just exchanged glances.
After a while, probably because Evelyn had been standing there for too long, she couldn’t help but shiver. Huston threw away the cigarette between her fingers, turned around, opened the car door, bent down, and took out her coat to put on her shoulder.
Evelyn raised her hand to block it and narrowed her eyes slightly. “You can wear it.”
He was wearing only a shirt, which looked extremely thin.
It was just three simple words, but it made Huston’s heart
flutter. His dark eyes were filled with tenderness as she called
out to Evelyn, “Evelyn…”
The low and deep voice became mellower after being soaked
in alcohol. Perhaps it was because of the smell of alcohol, but she felt a little dizzy. Evelyn opened the door of the driver’s seat and said, “Let’s go. I’ll send you back.”
The distance from Hub Apartment to the Royal Villa was not close, but they did not talk much on the way back. The man sat in the passenger seat and gently closed his eyes. His handsome facial features were calm, but his heart was
uneasy.
The woman beside him drove quietly, and her eyes fell on the road in front of her. If it weren’t for the dim light outside the window sweeping across his face, Huston would have had an illusion that everything was still.
There was a strong smell of alcohol in the car, and she could smell it clearly every time she breathed. Evelyn knew that she shouldn’t care about him, but she still couldn’t help murmuring after a long time, “Can you get up the next day after drinking so much?”
He was calm. Without opening his eyes, he raised his eyebrows and said, “I can’t.”
Evelyn frowned slightly. “What about your company if you can’t get up?”
“Heh,” Huston suddenly snorted. “Do you think I’m going to
care about them when I’m heartbroken?”
Evelyn choked on her blood. She had never thought that the atmosphere would be so serious a second ago and that
Mr. Lloyd would say something like that the next.
After a pause, Evelyn continued to persuade him like an old lady. “No matter who you’re dealing with, the company is yours. If you keep getting drunk in the middle of the night, it will delay your work. The employees will remember it even if they don’t say anything.”
Every time Evelyn saw that he was drunk, she didn’t like it. This
time, she finally got a chance to say it.
Huston opened her eyes faintly and looked calmly at the
woman next to her. Her thin lips trembled as she said, “The
purpose of starting a company to make money is to support the family. My wife has already run away, so why is she still
working?”
His deep voice was mixed with a trace of resentment, which
made Evelyn’s hair stand on end. But why was her heart beating so fast?
Ever since the quarrel began, it had been a long time since the
two of them had had a proper conversation, and there were
even fewer conversations like this.
Evelyn restrained the thoughts in her heart and tried her best to calm herself down. She pursed her pink lips tightly and did
not say another word to him.
Finally, the car arrived at the gate of the Royal Villa. The lights in the villa were left on, so it didn’t look too desolate from the outside. She had no intention of entering the house. She turned off the car and called out to him, “Huston, we’re here.”
The man’s eyes were closed, but he didn’t fall asleep. When he heard this, he quickly raised his eyelids and glanced out of the window. He quickly retracted them and looked at her fair face. Her chin was small, and her skin was as tender as water. Her big eyes were as clear as a stream, shining and moving.
