Chapter 36 You’re the Only One by My Side
When Evelyn was carried into the car, her head accidentally hit
the roof. With a thud, she felt a dull pain on her forehead. She restlessly reached out to push the man who had put her in the passenger seat. “It hurts!”
He placed his hands on both sides of her head with an unfriendly gaze. “Could you feel pain?”
She raised her hand to rub her forehead, feeling a little angry. “What are you doing?”
“Do you know what time it is now?”
“I don’t know. I want to sing.”
The wine did boost her courage.
Under the influence of alcohol, her born rebellious character was undoubtedly revealed.
Huston had never noticed this side of her before. Her large round eyes were filled with indignation as she glared at him boldly.
He was so angry that he laughed. “You want to sing, don’t you? I’ll let you sing enough when you get home.”
After that, he slammed the car door heavily, went around the

She lowered her head and covered her face with her long hair. She was depressed. “I don’t have a home. I don’t have one.”
Huston ignored her. As soon as his hands touched the steering wheel, he took a glance and found that the woman’s weak shoulders suddenly trembled. He frowned and looked over. “Are you crying again?”
Thinking of what Ben had said today, Evelyn felt as if she had been thrown into a liquid called sorrow. She was sealed in a jar, and she was almost drowned in bitterness and sadness.
Even her closest relatives thought so. Was it really wrong to choose divorce?
She even began to doubt herself. For a moment, she was unable to extricate herself.
Seeing her crying so hard, he felt confused and had a headache. at the same time. He had lived for 32 years, but he had never coaxed a woman. What was even stranger was that he couldn’t ignore her tears.
He lifted her chin and asked, “Why are you crying?”
“Because you’re all scolding me…”
“Who is it?”
“You!” She glared at him again.
Huston took a deep breath and tried to be patient. “Apart from
me.”
“Jerry, Maura, and my parents…” The more she thought about it, the sadder she became. She looked at him with tearful eyes. Her eyes seemed to be washed by the rain. “Aren’t you going to help me handle the lawsuit? When will you win…”
He wanted to say that it was not that easy, but when he saw the hopeful look in her eyes, he changed his words. “Soon.”
“Really?”
“Yes.” The man took out a tissue to wipe away the tears on her face. “Is that why you drink?”
His move was very light, and his voice was not as hard as before. The dim light from the roof fell on the man’s handsome face.
She stared blankly. She didn’t know if it was because it was too tragic today, but she suddenly felt a surge of emotions in her heart.
He was the worst to her. He forced her to make a deal with him and do whatever he wanted to her.
But every time it was a critical moment, he would always appear by her side.
He had given her a place to stay and a job she wanted. Especially when it came to divorce, if she hadn’t known this man called Huston, she would probably have been bullied by the Graves family. And she could probably do nothing about it when she saw how affectionate Jerry and Maura were.
She thought about it carefully and felt that he was not that bad. He just had a bad temper and was a little arrogant.
Sensing her focused gaze, the man lowered his eyes slightly. “I’m asking you a question.”
She faced the dark light above her head, and the tears in her eyes were like sparkling lakes. “I fuston, you’re the only one by my side now.”
He was supposed to be a stranger, but now he was firmly standing behind her.
