NovelOnlineChapter 719 A Bluffing Lawyer’s Letter
When Evelyn received the lawyer’s letter, it was already the next day. She had slept for a while and her
emotions had just started to calm down. However, when she opened the EMS envelope, her whole
being sank to the bottom.
It was a very comprehensive and formal lawyer’s letter, clearly stating some details regarding child
custody, including her actions from five years ago. What infuriated her the most was that the incident
involving the escorted vehicle from five years ago was being brought up again.
She knew it was inevitable, but when she saw the name “Huston” written under the “Client” section, she
couldn’t help but feel angry and frustrated.

Bert came out with a cup of freshly brewed coffee and saw her in this painful state. He casually picked
up the documents on the table, with black words on white paper, each word clear and legible.
“He won’t sue you.” the man suddenly spoke up.
Evelyn felt increasingly distressed, “I don’t know. For the sake of the child, he might actually sue me.”
“No, he won’t,” Bert felt that once Huston really filed a lawsuit against Evelyn, it meant that the last
possibility between the two of them would be cut off personally. That man would never do this. He
would never let go of her for the rest of his life, “He’s not willing to let go of you. He won’t do such a
stupid thing.”

calculating. The matters at the company required putting more pressure on Huston.
This man is so adept at using Evelyn’s emotions and psychology. He knows her thoughts inside out,
but Evelyn doesn’t understand him at all.
This lawyer’s letter is like a time bomb thrown into Evelyn’s hands, leaving her restless and consumed
by anxiety.
Bert told her to wait, but she couldn’t wait at all. She was afraid that if she continued to wait, the next
