Chapter 790 I Didn’t Want You To Do Anything
Looking at the bulging veins on his neck, she was a little stunned. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
She had always emphasized the significance of Bert to her, but she really ignored how important he was to this man.
Indeed, he was not a good person.
He was so angry that his internal organs were about to explode. In addition to Evelyn, he was also angry with himself. He was angry that he had not done well enough in the past five years. He was not as good as Bert. He was angry at himself for giving others such an opportunity, but he could only endure it. This was all his fault. “No matter what you think about him, I can mind my own business with him for the sake of you and our child, but I can’t retreat.”
“I don’t want you to do anything.” She closed her eyes. The long–lost sense of powerlessness once again surrounded her. She didn’t know what to say and what to do to find a compromise so that her feelings for Bert could be understood.
However, from his point of view, it seemed impossible to understand.
Huston had been angry, but when he saw her suddenly lower
her head, his heart tightened. He thought that she was crying. He raised her chin and saw a pair of confused eyes.
It’s fine that she didn’t cry.
He let go of her hand and took a deep breath. He seemed to be helpless and restrained as he said, “Let’s go down and eat.”
Lucas sat on the sofa and waited for a long time. He washed his hands and waited for his parents to come downstairs. He immediately ran to the dining room and prepared everything. He waited very sensibly for the adults to sit down before he began to eat.
Evelyn and Huston argued for a bit upstairs. Although it wasn’t a serious matter, it would still affect their mood. Evelyn was helpless, while Huston was angry
Neither of them spoke. The dining hall, which should have been lively, fell into an awkward silence.
Lucas blinked his big eyes and looked back and forth between the two of them. Feeling the unusual atmosphere, he took the initiative to ease the tension. ” Mr. Lloyd, the porridge you cooked is delicious.”
Huston glanced at her son’s bowl. “Eat more if you like it. Eat more so that you can be as tall as me.”
Lucas rolled his big eyes and said, “Mom, you’re tall too.”
Suddenly, she let out a hollow laugh. “You’re a boy, so you have
to be taller than me.”
The conversation was quickly interrupted. Lucas licked his spoon. He could tell that his parents were in a bad mood and had no intention of chatting, so he cooperated with them and remained silent.
They didn’t talk much until the end of the meal.
Since Sadie was not here, it was rare for Huston to cook, so she was too embarrassed to do nothing. She took the initiative to clean up
the dishes and put them in the sink in the kitchen.
There weren’t many bowls in total, so she didn’t need to use dish washer. She turned on the tap and dipped her hand in the dishwashing liquid.
As the sound of running water could be heard, a tall figure suddenly walked in from the kitchen door. Although the kitchen was semi–open and not small, she felt that the space was smaller when the person stood aside.
She unconsciously glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw the man take a bottle of ice water from the refrigerator and pour it in. Then he suddenly turned his head to look at her.
Before she could look away, she was caught red–handed. Her ears immediately turned red. “Why, why did you come in?”
Huston didn’t tease her. He was obviously still a little angry with her, and his tone was heavy. “Go out with me this afternoon.”
Did something really happen?
