Huston couldn't imagine what had happened to Evelyn in a foreign country. Huston was completely dispirited. At first, he could still rely on alcohol to paralyze himself, but after a long time, it was useless. He could only live with it.
Seeing that he was downcast, Kevin and the rest were powerless to do anything. In the past, although Huston did not know how to express himself, there was a fire burning in the depths of his heart. However, ever since Evelyn had disappeared, this man had completely changed. There was an aversion to the world in his bones.
Huston hated the world, even the law that he used to be most proud of.
It was useless for everyone to persuade him. Huston had to get through this by himself.
Half a year had passed, and Huston had only been to the company a few times. In the morning, he had rushed to the office. Matt was looking at today's schedule. When he saw him coming in, he was stunned and then stood up happily to welcome him. "You're finally here."
Matt thought that Huston had thought it through and was willing to come back to the company like before.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Huston opened his mouth, Matt's jaw dropped. "I'm going to quit the law industry. I'll make a statement at noon today."
"What?!" Matt, who had seen much of the world, was stunned when he heard this. "Huston, what did you say?"
"Withdraw from the lawyer circle; I don't want to have anything to do with this industry anymore." Huston wanted to get out of this environment. Otherwise, he would hate himself for the rest of his life.
The law he trusted the most had helped so many people, but slandering his beloved woman was the least he could bear in his life.
Seeing his firm attitude, Matt couldn't help frowning. "Huston, calm down and be rational. Since the establishment of the company, we have been the ones to take care of it. What should you do if you leave the company now? What should I do?"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was an indescribable silence in the office. Ever since something had happened to Evelyn, it had always been a heavy topic. Huston saw his beloved leave his side. The two of them were separated by death. This kind of pain was indeed unbearable.
But as his best friend, Matt couldn't let Huston create illusionary hope for himself and harm others and himself.
Matt missed the man who was full of work and arrogant and rational at that time. "Huston, how long will it take for you to face reality?"
Face reality?
