The night wind rolled up the woman's sobs and fell on his heart. Today, he had just got the results of the examination and saw that everything was normal. He had no other thoughts but just wanted to appear by her side as soon as possible. In the past six months, listening to his subordinates report her situation, what he wanted to do the most was to hold her in his arms.
Evelyn cried for a long time and vented all the emotions that she had suppressed for half a year. She sobbed and complained, "Why did you come back so late? Do you know how much I miss you every day? How worried I was about you..."
"I know, I know." He got up with a little force and left. His eyes fell on the woman's red eyes and nose, and his heart ached. "It's my fault for letting you bear all this alone. Now that I'm back, everything is over, Evelyn."
The tears that were about to stop were once again opened because of this sentence. Evelyn felt wronged and helpless and finally found an exit. He suddenly appeared, which made her surprised and happy, but more uncertain.
"Huston, are you not leaving?"
Her question broke Huston's heart. He smiled sadly and said, "Wherever you go, you're here. I can't go anywhere. I'll stay by your side."
Evelyn had waited for this sentence for more than half a year. In addition, in the past few years, she devoted all her youth to this relationship. She had been confused, doubted, and flinched, but she had never regretted it.
This sentence was worth it.
More and more hot liquid flowed down from his palm. The temperature reached his heart through his fingertips, making his heartache. "Don't cry, honey. I feel even worse when you cry."
Evelyn shook her head and said in a nasal voice, "I don't want to cry either..."
Huston felt extremely guilty. He lowered his head and kissed her pale lips. His actions of holding her cheeks with both hands were so sincere that salty tears flowed down his thin lips, making her look pitiful.
"How's Uncle Ben doing?" Before coming here, he had already heard about the general situation from Kevin. To be honest, it was fortunate that his health was stable now. Otherwise, he didn't know if Evelyn would be able to withstand this hurdle.
"He has a cerebral infarction and needs a stent. He will undergo surgery tomorrow."
"Don't worry. There won't be any problems with Kevin around."
Evelyn naturally understood this. As an expert in the medical field, it was not difficult for Kevin to have such a condition. Naturally, she trusted him. However, at this moment, when he said such a thing, she inexplicably calmed down.
"Huston, can you stay with me for the surgery tomorrow?" Evelyn turned to ask him, her eyes full of inquiry and uncertainty.
Huston's heart broke when he saw this, and he placed his large palm on the top of her head. "Silly girl, I'll stay by your side."
