Chapter 40 Returning to Her Ex-husband’s Home
After having sex, Evelyn took out a tissue from her bag and cleaned herself. There was an indescribable smell in the conference room. Both of them knew what it was. She was shy and resentful. She rolled the tissue into a ball and threw it to
him. “B*stard!”
Huston put on his tie again and glanced out of the corner of his eye. “Who asked for more just now?”
‘…” She blushed and looked away. She didn’t want to see him. “I’m leaving.”
“Evelyn Shelton.” He called her by her full name.
She stopped in her tracks but did not turn around.
The man paused for a moment. “Think about what Lawyer Warren said.”
Think about what?
Returning to Jerry’s side?
The anger that had just been suppressed flared up once more. She bit her lower lip and then let go of it. She turned around and stood still half an arm away from him. “Huston, do you think I can date anyone? Yes, I’m your lover. I’m ashamed, and I’m not worthy of your respect, but I’ve never looked down on myself.

After she shouted at him, the man’s expression darkened. He raised his hand and caressed her delicate cheeks. “So, you want to say that you’re my mistress, and you only have sex with me, don’t you?” C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
She choked and didn’t know how to refute it. It seemed that… that was indeed the case.
But that was not her main point at all!
Seeing that she was stunned by his question, Huston lifted his thin lips and smiled evilly. “Evelyn, I never treat you like a ball, and I won’t kick you out to anyone else. I’m asking you to find Jerry to get some evidence, not to rekindle the past feelings.”
As he spoke, he took out a silver snake chain from his pocket. He bent his long legs slightly and squatted in front of her. She felt a chill on her left wrist, and the chain had been put on. “This is a tracker. If you dare to have sex with someone else, I’ll kill the adulterer first and then break your legs.”
Actually, Huston’s threats were very effective. In the end, Evelyn agreed to the proposal. At the same time, she officially joined HM Law Office.
This series of events gave her the illusion that Huston had planned this for a long time. As soon as she returned to Hill Villa, she had another way to see Huston every day.
Jerry only found out that Evelyn had returned home after receiving a call from his servant. He was very surprised and even canceled his meal with Maura and drove home.
Was cleaning the secondary bedroom next to the master bedroom with the servant. When she saw Jerry coming in, she pretended to be calm and said, “You’re back.”
There was a flash of surprise in Jerry’s eyes. He stepped forward and wanted to pull her into his arms, but she avoided him. “Don’t touch me. I haven’t forgiven you yet.”
Jerry did not dare to act rashly. He was afraid that she would leave again in a fit of anger, but he still put on a superior look on his face. “Have you figured it out?”
It was neither an apology nor an explanation. The first thing het said was “Have you figured it out”.
She resisted the urge to blow his head off. “Yes.”
Jerry nodded with satisfaction and said shamelessly, “Since your took the initiative to come back, I’ll let you go this time. Evelyn, there won’t be a second time, understand?”
She sneered and didn’t say anything.
“Why are you cleaning up here?”
“I’ll live here.”
“Live here?” Jerry frowned and paced around the room irritably. After driving the servant out, he said, “You’re my wife. Do you need to sleep in separate beds?”
In the past, only he could choose not to go home. Evelyn had never made such a request. It surprised Jerry and made him feel a little… fresh.
It was as if the woman in front of him was no longer the submissive and obedient woman she used to be.
He preferred women who knew how to refuse. The harder it was to conquer, the more he wanted to conquer it.
She saw all his expressions and reached out to smooth out the wrinkles on the bedsheet. “I have mysophobia. I’m not used to sleeping in the bed someone else used to sleep in.”
It was clear who she was referring to.
Jerry was still immersed in the excitement just now. Suddenly, he was choked by her words and immediately widened his eyes. “Evelyn, don’t push your luck!”
“If there’s nothing else, you can leave. I’m tired.” She didn’t even want to look at him. Being in the same space as him made every cell in her body uncomfortable to the extreme.
After Jerry slammed the door and left, Evelyn breathed a sigh of relief. She looked down at the silver chain on her feet and thought, “Just endure it.”
