Evelyn's heart was in a mess. She had a feeling that the knot in her heart for many years had been slowly untied, but this feeling made her a little flustered.
She closed her eyes again, not looking or thinking. "I'm tired. I want to rest for a while."
Huston didn't force her. Instead, he gently tucked her in and turned to leave the inpatient ward.
The door was opened and closed instantly.
She opened her eyes and found she was left alone in the ward.
She could vaguely hear the sound of flicking the spark wheel of the lighter in the corridor. Huston went outside to smoke again. He was not addicted to smoking and would only light one when he was annoyed.
In fact, he should also be very conflicted in his heart. Her rejection and resistance were not important to him. On the contrary, they were very important and could even affect his mood.
The change in his attitude made her a little confused. She only needed to resist originally, but their relationship suddenly eased up at this time. She couldn't even put on a tough attitude. She was used to their hostile relationship, so she couldn’t accept the sudden change.
Especially now that she knew that he was upset, she had no idea what to do.
He made a concession to show his attitude. Now, all he needed was for her to say something.
The more she thought about it, the more annoyed and anxious she became. She simply closed her eyes to rest. Maybe it was because she had too many things on her mind, she really fell asleep after a while.
When he finished smoking a cigarette and returned to the ward, the woman on the bed was already asleep. Her breathing was steady and her body was relaxed. She was not pretending to be asleep.
He walked to the bedside and looked down at the face that he loved and hated. When could she really understand his heart?
...
When she woke up, it was already past noon. She was woken up by the nurse pulling out the needle.
They took the elevator to the lobby on the first floor. There was a Mercedes-Benz black van parked at the door. When the driver saw them coming over, he immediately got out of the car and opened the door.
Huston helped her into the car and followed closely behind.
Many people next to him saw this scene and looked sideways at the same time. They sighed with emotion that it was good to be rich. They didn't have to worry about anything and had someone to do anything for them.
However, she was isolated from the conversation outside the car, so she didn't hear it.
The driver drove the car to the entrance and asked respectfully, "President Lloyd, where are you going?"
She glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, and then she heard the man's calm voice. "The Royal Villa."
