Chapter 416 Take Me to Meet Your Parents as Soon as Possible
“Are you downstairs?” Evelyn subconsciously stood by the
window and looked down. Then, she realized that the kitchen
was not facing the road.
She suddenly thought of the faint sounds coming from
the phone earlier. Calculating the time, he must have left
immediately after answering the call.
She thought he believed her excuse, but she didn’t expect him
to come directly and be downstairs.
Evelyn felt a lump in her throat and didn’t know what to say.
Feeling her emotions, Huston said lightly, “Come down. I’ll wait for you.”
After hanging up the phone, Evelyn poured water into the
thermos bottle and left the kitchen. When she saw that Lucy was still sitting in the living room, she took
out the trash bag she had just tidied up and said guiltily, “Mom, I’m going
downstairs to throw away the garbage and take a walk.”
Lucy nodded, reminding her, “Don’t go too far, and stay safe.”

After Evelyn went out, she hurriedly descended the stairs,
taking big strides that made her feel a little dizzy due to the
speed. Just as she rushed out of the entrance door, she saw a
black car parked under a tree.
She trotted all the way over, knocked on the window, and motioned for Huston to open the door.
With a ‘click’ sound, the central locking system closed, and Evelyn opened the car door and got in.
Instantly, she was enveloped by the warmth of the car’s heating system.
“Why are you here?” When she asked Huston, her tone was still full of disbelief and surprise.
Huston turned his head and looked at her. Her eyes still
showed a faint trace of redness. With a tender touch, he
asked, “Why were you crying on New Year’s Eve?”
“I didn’t.” Speaking of this, Evelyn was a little embarrassed.
She pushed his hand away and said, “I’m not crying.”
Ignoring her stubbornness, Huston continued to ask, “Did your
family make things difficult for you?”
“No.”
“What was it about?” Seeing her continuously evading the
answer, Huston’s tone grew serious, and he looked at her earnestly. “Evelyn, I’m asking you seriously.”
Seeing that she couldn’t get away with it, she told him what had happened at dinner. Since childhood,
Ben had always told Evelyn that the family scandal should not be disclosed,
so it felt a bit embarrassing for her to talk about these things
with him now.
Huston listened without showing much expression. There was
no anger or annoyance on his face. He simply felt sorry for Evelyn. If the other person weren’t her aunt,
he would have made her pay for it. What a pity.
“So you should take me to meet your parents as soon as possible. That way, people won’t gossip and
speculate.” This
was the only and best way to resolve these matters.
At the mention of this, she felt a headache coming on. She
had thought that it would be best to let the relationship develop naturally, but she had forgotten that,
besides herself, her parents were also bearing a lot of pressure.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that she thought about it, she decided to face these
problems. Otherwise, it would be harmful and irresponsible to the people around her.
Evelyn thought for a moment and said, “Didn’t my dad agree
to let my mom accompany me back to the Royal Villa and meet you? If my mom is available and wants
to go, I won’t stop
her.”
“Okay.” Huston couldn’t wait to see her parents. He had
wanted to see them for a long time but hadn’t had the chance. “I will return home in the afternoon on
January 4th. Sadie will also be there, so there should be enough time for
dinner.”
“Okay, let’s do it this way.”
Suddenly, there was a loud ‘pop’ sound from outside the car window, followed by the sight of a burst of
colorful flames in the pitch-black sky. Yellow and red intertwined vividly, forming
a floral pattern. The two colors were very distinct, creating a beautiful flower-like display.
The light from the fireworks illuminated Huston’s handsome face, making it appear vivid and alive, like
a beautiful painting coming to life.
He was looking at the fireworks while she was looking at him.
