Chapter 317 Evelyn, I’m Sorry
Evelyn’s heart was beating very fast. She didn’t turn around
and stood in a deadlock with him awkwardly.
Sensing the wildly beating pulse on her wrist, Huston stared at her back with burning eyes. “I know you
wiped my body!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Evelyn bit her lips hard. Her
face was hot and swollen, and she felt embarrassed as if she
had done something bad. She asked him shyly, “Were you
awake this whole time?”
“No.” Huston’s heart softened. “You made some big movements and woke me up.”
Evelyn was too embarrassed to speak. She wished she could
find a hole to hide in.
The atmosphere became somewhat delicate, and just as
Evelyn felt at a loss, a choked voice came from Huston behind
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇther, “Evelyn, I’m sorry.”
When Evelyn heard these words, the tears she had been
holding back fell. She looked down at the ground, and her tears fell, leaving a puddle of water stains.
She sniffed, unable to contain her anger as she thought about how he was tormenting his own body.
“You know you were
sorry? Didn’t you make yourself look like this just to make me appear as the one at fault?”
“No.” Huston tightened his grip on her hand, and all the words
at the tip of his tongue condensed into these words, “I’m
sorry.”
His strength made Evelyn worry, afraid the needle might burst
out of his flesh.
Wiping away her tears with the other hand, Evelyn took a deep breath and turned to face the man
behind her. She forced a bitter smile and asked, “What do you want me to say? That it’s okay? Or that I
forgive you?”
Huston furrowed his brows and stared at her, seemingly taken aback by her words. Suddenly, he
coughed intensely,
his breath hitching and his face turning slightly red. Without
waiting for the coughing to subside, he eagerly said, “You
don’t have to forgive me. As long as you don’t leave me, that’s
all I ask.”
What he was most afraid of was not her reproach or complaints but losing her and not being able to
see her.
Evelyn’s heart felt like it had been struck hard, momentarily pausing before rapidly beating again. She
looked at the man.
hidden behind his strength for the first time.
So, he was afraid too. Afraid of her leaving, afraid of losing her. It turned out that she wasn’t the only
one suffering like
this.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEvelyn suddenly recalled what Kevin had said in the office.
“Can you give him a chance?”
How could she not be willing to give him a chance? Even if she tried to numb herself, she couldn’t
escape the fact that she had already fallen in love with Huston. After hearing those words and learning
the reasons behind his actions, all her suspicions and doubts turned into heartfelt concern for him.
The man before her had experienced the separation of life and death and shouldered such a heavy
responsibility. He was more tired than anyone else.
On the path of love, he was like an old man in his twilight years, already weary and stumbling yet
compelled to continue
moving forward despite it all.
At this moment, the haze in Evelyn’s heart drifted away. She saw her heart clearly and his heart.
Neither of them spoke. They gazed at each other for a long
time, their eyes reflecting each other’s faces. Evelyn saw the nervousness in his eyes, and with red
eyes, she warned him, “If you deceive me again, I will leave you and never come back!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Huston’s eyes turned red, but the force in his hands did not release
