Chapter 957 What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?
Her attitude made Huston swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth. The atmosphere became a little stagnant for a moment. They looked at each other for a long time before Huston spoke patiently.
"I know you're worried about me, Evelyn, but as a legal staff, it's my duty."
Evelyn was so anxious that she blurted out, "But without you, there would be someone else who can do it. Why do you have to do it by yourself? If you don't return to the lawyer's circle now, will the case be suspended?"
These words were undoubtedly a kind of doubt towards Huston. He had returned because he still had some thoughts in his heart, and she wanted him to return, but now that he heard her say these things in reverse, his heart felt sour.
The moment Evelyn said that she regretted it, but she had no other choice. She was really worried about him. Looking at his cold face, she felt wronged and anxious. "You only think that you are a legal worker. Have you ever thought you were also my husband and the child's father? You are not alone now. Everything you have affected this family. I really don't want any other accidents to happen."
In the end, she couldn't help but choke up, feeling his lack of understanding towards her.
When Huston saw that her eyes were red and he was no longer angry, his heart ached for her. He reached out to hold her in his arms, but she dodged.
She suppressed the tears in her eyes and tried to make her voice sound less choked with sobs. "Think about it yourself."
After that, she stopped arguing and turned to walk out of the study.
Looking at the door that had been opened and closed again, Huston shifted his gaze to the steaming milk on the table. His palm on the table gradually tightened. This was the first time there had been such a big disagreement between them since they had reconciled.
In fact, before telling her, he was hesitating whether to take over the case or not. But when he saw her reaction today, he couldn't hide his real thoughts.
He wanted to accept the case because it involved a lot of people. He needed to stand up for this group of people.
