Chapter 520 Will Today Pass?
Evelyn was taken to an office that was connected to the court. Later, she would enter the court through the door and clarify her position in front of the judge and lawyer.
She was very nervous but didn’t dare to be too excited for fear of affecting the child in her belly. She didn’t eat well and couldn’t sleep well these days, so she felt uncomfortable.
Just as she felt anxious, the office door was suddenly pushed open. Huston walked towards her, dressed in a clean and sharp black suit, and stood in front of her. His tie was neatly knotted at the collar, and his hair was slicked back. He had shed his disheveled appearance from a few days ago and resumed his previous dignified and proud demeanor.
The clothes fit him very well. It could be seen that they were custom-made. The style was formal, and there were no extra patterns, but he was indescribably charming when he wore
them.
He didn’t say anything and kissed her passionately as soon as he stood still. Evelyn could feel that he missed her very much, just as she missed him.
Because of this, her heart was so painful and wavering.
After a passionate and short kiss, Huston pulled out the chair next to her and sat down. He handed her the document in his
hand and said, “You have been suffering these past few days, darling. Take a look at these documents. Pay attention to your wording in court later. Don’t have any conflicts with my explanation.”
Evelyn was slightly stunned. His explanation?
Was he referring to the viewpoint advocating for pleading guilty?
Seeing that she lowered her head and did not speak, Huston raised his hand to hold her pale face and gently stroked it with his thumb. “Trust me. This is all for your good. After today, I will definitely not let you suffer anymore.”
With a hollow smile, Evelyn looked up and asked him, “Will today pass?”
“It will pass.” Huston held her cold palm tightly. “It definitely
will.”
Evelyn shook her head. Her eyes were red, but no tears came out. She had cried too many times and seemed to have dried up. She sobbed and muttered, “It’s so cruel.”
“You have me.” Huston reached out and pulled her into his arms, afraid her emotions would be unstable. Seeing her compromise, his heart ached as if a knife had cut it. “I’ll accompany you through this last hurdle.”
“But that’s not what I want.” It was useless to say that now, but she couldn’t help it.
“I know.” Huston patted her gently on the back to comfort her. He said gently, “There are many things we cannot change, and to achieve the best outcome, we can only make compromises. If it were just me, perhaps I wouldn’t be so timid, but I dare not take risks when it involves you. I cannot bear the consequences of failure.”
How could Evelyn not understand what he was saying?
A small flame suddenly ignited in the bottom of her heart. She pushed away slightly from his arms and looked up at him. “Huston, I don’t care. I just want a fair judgment, even if the outcome doesn’t meet my expectations. At least I won’t feel guilty, and I won’t regret it. I accept it as it is. I cannot bear this humiliation…”
Their eyes met, and their gazes collided in the air. It was the first time since the incident that Huston saw a glimmer of light in her
eyes.
It had been a long time since she had been so energetic. For so long, he could only rummage through his memories to find that lively Evelyn…
He wanted to agree, but reality didn’t allow it, so all his thoughts turned into a cold and rational statement. “I also want it, but reality doesn’t allow it.”
“Why can’t it be allowed? As long as I present the truth, it should be enough!” Evelyn wanted to restore everything, adhere to the facts, and stand firm that she hadn’t done anything. She
