Finding Love in the Boss’s Embrace After Divorce novel Chapter 720

Chapter 720 Will She Listen to Me if I Coax Her? 

After five years, to her surprise, he still had her phone number. At that moment, Evelyn felt a bit uneasy, stumbling over her words as she spoke, “Yes, it’s me.” 

She had expected Kevin to be curious about why she suddenly contacted him, but instead, his voice came through, warm and calm, “How have you been all these years?” 

Thinking of Kevin, his voice so gentle and soothing, she always felt a sense of comfort in his presence. He was someone she could rely on, even just through his voice and appearance. Being with him was like basking in a warm spring breeze, never feeling 

any pressure. 

Feeling a tinge of guilt for reaching out to him only when she needed something, Evelyn replied, “I’ve been doing well, and you?” 

“It’s about the same,” After that, he smiled, “Huston actually mentioned your situation to me before.” 

“Yes?” 

The conversation came to an abrupt silence. 

Evelyn tightened her grip on her phone, her five fingers 

clenched. The words she wanted to say were already on the tip of her tongue, but she felt difficult to articulate. Although it wasn’t a major issue, it had been so long since they last contacted each other that they felt somewhat estranged. 

Sensing her hesitation, Kevin promptly broke the silence and resolved the awkwardness, “You called me to ask about Huston, right?” 

She breathed a sigh of relief and was very touched that he could take the initiative to speak, “Yeah.” 

“Go ahead. As long as it’s something I can do, just tell me.” 

With his words reaching this level of sincerity, Evelyn didn’t hold back either. Lingering too much would seem insincere. Worried that it might be difficult to explain over the phone, she decided to meet him in person. Kevin readily agreed, and they arranged to meet at the cafe of a five-star hotel about three to four kilometers from her apartment. 

After ending the call with Evelyn, Kevin walked out, holding his car keys, and dialed Huston’s number. As soon as the call connected, he began reprimanding him, “Did you leave Evelyn hanging again?” 

Huston raised an eyebrow in surprise as he played ball with Lucas in the backyard of the villa, “How did you know?” he asked. 

He hadn’t been in contact with Evelyn recently, and he hadn’t mentioned this matter to anyone. How did Kevin find out? 

to arrange a meeting. I immediately figured that you must have been acting stubborn again. Otherwise, why would she have no other choice but to reach out to me?” 

He didn’t continue the topic and just asked, “Are you going to meet her?” 

“Of course, if I don’t go, she’ll be in a terrible state!” Kevin sighed, genuinely concerned about their situation, “I’m practically becoming your matchmaker, Huston. It’s about time you figure things out. Evelyn has returned alone, taking care of a child. If you don’t make things right soon, I doubt you ever want to get married.” 

“Do you think she’ll listen if I try to appease her?” Huston spoke through gritted teeth, seething with anger at the thought of her words, “When you see her, don’t mention anything else. If she asks about Lucas, just say you don’t know. If I don’t scare her, she thinks I can tolerate anything, parading around with Bert in front of me. She’s gone too far.”
