Chapter 515 Do You Want a Child?
In the end, Evelyn couldn’t hold back the tears in her eyes. She was afraid she would cry out loud, so
she quickly grabbed a stack of tissue paper beside the toilet and covered her mouth. She clenched her
teeth tightly, biting her lips, not making a sound, but her body trembled uncontrollably.
She gently covered her belly with her left hand and suppressed her tears. “Baby, just give me a little
more time, a little more, and we’ll be fine…”
Recently, Huston had been deeply troubled by the lawsuit but had never forgotten Evelyn in the police
station. The trial was about to begin, and Evelyn needed to be held in a detention center on the
outskirts. To avoid the media, they specifically chose to transport her at night.
Huston was worried, so he followed the car in person. As soon as he closed the case file, he set off for
the police station. During the journey, he took a brief rest with his eyes closed. The driver occasionally
glanced at the rearview mirror and saw the tall man leaning his head against the car window, feeling a
tinge of bitterness in his heart.
The driver drove smoothly along the way. When they arrived at the police station, he called out softly,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Mr. Lloyd, we have arrived.”
Huston opened his eyes almost immediately. His deep, dark
eyes were bloodshot, and he looked exhausted to the extreme.
Without saying a word, he opened the car door and walked into the police station without stopping for a
moment. There was obvious anxiety in his steps. It was not difficult to see that he missed the person
inside very much.
The driver gazed at the transport vehicle parked in the yard. Unlike regular cars, it was covered with a
sturdy iron mesh, creating a sense of fear. He sighed silently, sincerely hoping for a positive outcome to
this situation, wishing the couple would no longer endure further torment.
When Huston entered the room, Evelyn had already changed her clothes. Going to the detention
center required wearing the “prisoner uniform” there, but luckily, she didn’t need to wear handcuffs and
leg irons, which allowed her to maintain some dignity.
With just a glance at her clothes, Huston couldn’t bear to look at her anymore. He took a step forward
and pulled her into his embrace. “There are only a few days left. Hold on a little longer.”
Evelyn felt his warm embrace, but her body was cold, like a wooden stake.
“It’s getting late, Mr. Lloyd, Ms. Shelton. Please get in the car.” The police officer reminded them from
behind. The chief was also waiting outside. This case was not small, and it involved Huston. All
departments attached great importance to it, and there could be no room for any mistakes.
Evelyn and Huston walked out of the gate, one in front of the other. It was the first time in several days
that Evelyn could feel the outdoor air, even though it was nighttime. It brought a sense of refreshment
to her.
It turned out that freedom was so important.
Evelyn suppressed the sourness in her nose and silently reaffirmed a decision in her heart.
On the way there, Huston sat in the front seat. She was in the back seat, and there was a wire net door
between them. For the first time, she felt like she was a criminal.
When they were about to arrive at the detention center, Evelyn called out to him softly, “Huston.”
Huston quickly turned around and asked nervously, “What’s wrong?”
Evelyn gazed into those eyes that once brought joy but now caused deep pain. The words “I’m
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpregnant” struggled on her lips for a long time but couldn’t be uttered.
Seeing her hesitation, Huston asked with concern, “What’s going on?”
Evelyn gritted her teeth and said word by word, “Do you want a child?”
At this time, in this kind of environment, she asked such a question out of the blue. Huston was
stunned for a while. After
he came to his senses, his eyes darkened a little. “Why did you suddenly say that?”
Evelyn’s heart tightened. Afraid that he would discover something, she quickly said, “Nothing. I just feel
that the world is unpredictable. It’s good to have a child.”
She had experienced a lot recently, all of which were major events. It was not surprising for her to have
such feelings.
Huston’s mind was already in a mess, so he didn’t think much about it. He just comforted her and said,
“It’s okay. We’ll get married when everything is over.”
He had expressed his desire to marry her multiple times in the past. At that time, she had always been
considering his parents, her own parents, and the opinions of the outside world. However, now, after
going through the trial of a homicide case, she realized that everything else was trivial. The real
challenges were only just beginning.
