Chapter 285 Well-dressed but Not Doing Business
Grace, who could still walk upright, stumbled behind them as they left the bar. Upon reaching the exit,
she saw Huston stuffing Evelyn into the car and quickly ran over. Unfortunately, her legs failed to
cooperate, and fell to the ground in a stumble.
Grace exclaimed and closed her eyes, bracing herself for the pain. However, she was greeted with a
warm and firm embrace instead of the anticipated pain.

A low and gentle voice came from above her head. “Don’t mess around, or I’ll tie you up again.”

“Let go of me! I’m going to find Evelyn!” As she spoke, she struggled to walk toward Huston’s car.
Matt only used 20% of his strength to subdue her, and his face. was full of helplessness. “They’re a
couple. What are you doing
here?”
“That’s not fair! Huston could stay out all night, so why should he control Evelyn?” Grace grew angrier
as she spoke and saw the car driving away before she could break free. Fueled by anger, she slapped
Matt hard on the shoulder. “You lawyers are all despicable! You put on a righteous facade but never do
anything meaningful!”
Matt was speechless.
Grace broke free from his arms, pointed at the handsome face before her, and said fiercely, “What are
you looking at?

to her, he took the car and unhurriedly followed her. He even deliberately turned on the headlights to
shine on her.
Grace tried to ignore Matt and the car behind her, but the two beams of strong light hurt her eyes. She

“What am I doing?” Grace chuckled playfully. “What do you
mean by shining the car lights on me?”
Matt narrowed his eyes slightly as his gaze landed on Grace. A hint of brightness appeared in those
usually rational and restrained eyes. “I meant for you to get in the car,” he said.

The car stopped in the yard, and he unbuckled his and got out of the car. With determined strides, he

room.
With a “bang,” all the lights in the living room were turned on,
and the bright light instantly lit up the whole room. Before

Huston’s eyes were as cold
as an ice cellar. “Explain yourself. Why are you there, hmm?”
