Finding Love in the Boss’s Embrace After Divorce
Chapter 440

Chapter 440 I'm Serious. I Want to Resign

"It doesn't matter whether you mean it or not because you've already done it." Evelyn had never known that one day she would be so resistant to contact with him. It was so serious

that she didn't even want to hear his voice.

He had brought her so much pain that her love was about to disappear. She didn't know how long she could hold on.

Huston didn't want to argue with her and knew that the two of them weren't in a stable mood. After calming down, he said, "Let's go downstairs for dinner first. You still have a low fever. The doctor said that you can't have an empty stomach. You can't take medicine until you finish eating."

Evelyn took a deep breath. "I want to go home."

When she said she wanted to go home, it was definitely not

this home, but Lucy and Ben's.

Huston frowned and was worried about her current situation.

"How are you going to go home like this?"

"I'll take a taxi." Evelyn didn't want to say another word,

showing an unprecedented coldness in her attitu

him.

"Evelyn." Huston's voice was low and deep, tinged with a hint of hostility, but he suppressed it in the end. "Stay here tonight. I'll send you back tomorrow morning."

Both of them were enduring each other. Seeing how

persistent he was, Evelyn's heart did not waver in the slightest. She actually wanted to laugh. She did not know what Huston was holding on to. They had already come to this point. What else was there that he could not bear to part with? Could it be that he loved her?

Even if he loved her, Mia stood between them, and she

couldn't accept it.

"You said you wanted to talk." Evelyn was finally willing to turn around and look straight at Huston.

Huston's eyes were gloomy, and undercurrents were surging

in his heart. "Yes."

"Okay, I'll talk to you." After that, Evelyn went straight to the bedroom door without waiting for his response. Huston could

only see her slender figure walking away. "Let's go to the

study."

Huston's already furrowed brows grew even tighter, and his

thought of what she might say later, his heart began to palpitate with fear.

However, he couldn't stop her. This negotiation would come sooner or later. The longer it dragged on, the more she would

hate him.

Huston lowered his gaze, his eyelashes trembling slightly. He stood in place for a while, then walked towards the direction Evelyn had left, his usually steady steps now carrying an imperceptible sense of anxiety.

In the study, the window on the wall was open, and the dark gray gauze curtain was blown up. A breeze swept past with a trace of coldness in the winter. Evelyn simply looked around,

and her eyes turned red again.

It was not that she was sentimental but that there were too many memories of them in this place. Now it seemed that they were all ready to say goodbye.

Not long after, there came the orderly footsteps from behind.

It was Huston.

Evelyn quickly blinked and suppressed the bitterness in her eyes. She didn't want to lose her composure too much.

The door closed with a click. Just a moment ago, Evelyn

thought it was too cold to open the window, but now she felt relieved. She was grateful for the window because otherwise, she would have felt suffocated.

Like when they had been alone countless times in the past, Huston walked to the swivel chair behind the desk and sat down. His expression was calm, but there was a hint of tension. "Say whatever you want to say," he said.

She blinked and quickly calmed down. After a moment of silence, she wanted to sort out what she wanted to say, but her mind was a mess. She couldn't figure it out and could only speak as she thought. "Huston, it's been over half a year since we met. I handed in my resignation letter to the company today. It wasn't an impulsive decision; I have been contemplating it repeatedly over the past month. So, I'm serious about wanting to resign."

The two of them had just done something intimate, but at

this time, they were like strangers on the verge of separation.

Huston said, "Go ahead." He narrowed his eyes and let her

continue.
