Chapter 1170 Thanks to Mrs. Ivan' Blessing
Not long after Huston left, Evelyn also finished washing her hands and followed him out. The table was set with
utensils and dishes, and Sadie's cooking skills were naturally praiseworthy. Even Huston, who was so picky, was
satisfied, let alone the others.
Sure enough, while eating, Cathy couldn't help but exclaim, "Huston, the maid you hired is such a great cook, even
better than me."
Huston lightly nodded his head. He didn't say much during the meal.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment, and there was only the sound of utensils touching the
dining table. Evelyn wanted to lighten the mood, but her memory gap made her hesitant to say much.
On the other hand, Renee seemed to be in a good mood, as the matter of her admission to graduate school had

Evelyn had a bowl of soup, and the delicious taste filled her mouth. Before she could savor it fully, she saw the
bottom of the bowl. She wanted to get another bowl but hesitated because Cathy was here, and it wouldn't be
appropriate to reach for it herself.
Usually, Sadie would help her add more, but unfortunately, Sadie was cleaning up in the kitchen.
Just as she was contemplating whether to ask for more soup or not, suddenly, a pair of well-defined hands
appeared in her sight, and the next second, her bowl was taken away.
Evelyn looked up and saw Huston, who was lowering his head, carefully ladling soup for her and removing the
excess oil to make it lighter.
Evelyn looked at him in surprise. How did he know that she wanted to drink soup?
This scene also caught Cathy's eye. She knew her son's personality; he had always been aloof and often wouldn't
express his feelings. She had gradually grown accustomed to him being this way.
But it was the first time that Cathy had seen him get along with Evelyn, and she felt a little upset.
Seeing him do something he had never done for anyone before, just for a woman, her heart felt a bit
uncomfortable and bittersweet.
Cathy didn't dare to show her true feelings too openly. She could only say with a somewhat insincere tone, "I've
never seen Huston take care of anyone like this before. Evelyn, you are really lucky."
If someone else had said these words, they might have sounded pleasant, but coming from Cathy, Huston's
mother, they carried a different flavor.
Although Evelyn had lost her memory, she was not a fool. She knew why Cathy said that.
She looked at the small bowl full of soup in front of her. She didn't want to embarrass Cathy too much.
"It's all thanks to you, Mrs. Ivan. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet him."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHuston's initially slightly annoyed mood was calmed down by the last half of her sentence. Though he knew she said
it for Cathy's benefit, he couldn't deny that he felt flattered.
Finally, Renee showed some perceptiveness and put down her folk to say, "Evelyn, please come to our home more
often when you have time."
Her words made everyone feel more at ease, and Evelyn smiled and replied, "Sure, I'll definitely come when I have
the time."
Cathy and Renee left the villa at one-thirty in the afternoon. After seeing them off with the driver, Evelyn let out a
long sigh, "Ah, they finally left. I was so nervous."
Leaning against the cabinet behind him, Huston crossed his arms and calmly looked at her, "You were nervous? I
couldn't tell at all."
"That was just me pretending to be calm. My heart was in a panic," Evelyn confessed, still feeling scared, "That was
your mother, after all. If she asked me something and I didn't know the answer, wouldn't I be exposed? I can't
remember anything now, and then..."
Just as she was talking non-stop about all her worries, she was pulled into a warm embrace.
