Chapter 2255
A moment later, Andrea's arrogant shouts came from the elevator. "Howard! What are you waiting for?"NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Since Hendrix and the others showed up, the manager, who did not even dare to breathe loudly, ran after her and said, "I'm coming, I'm coming..." After Howard entered, the door closed. As the red number on the display screen began to flash, the elevator went down steadily.
If Hendrix was forced to accept Andrea's kindness and affection because of guilt, what about now? Now that he understood his heart, was he completely letting go of himself?
There were two voices constantly arguing in my mind. Rationally, there must be something wrong with this abnormal situation. I had to wait patiently, but my emotional side was stubbornly stepping into the black hole of insecurity. I kept falling and falling.
"Isn't it wonderful?" Jordan's voice brought me back to reality. "I think so too. Guess how evil Hendrix could be?"
Sure enough, in his eyes, everything was just a game.
"I'm not interested in playing this kind of perverted game with you!" I snorted and walked quickly to another elevator.
The second before the elevator door closed, Evan snuck in.
The scene just now was ugly. Neither of us spoke as we walked out of the company building, deliberately avoiding the awkward conversation.
The driver had been waiting at the entrance for quite some time. He was about to come forward to show me the way when I shot him a glance. Most of the Roberts' servants were sensible and soon understood what I meant. He returned to the car quietly and closed the window.
Evan asked me to wait for a while and drove the car over.
"Are you going home directly?" Evan asked as soon as I sat down.
"Let's drive around the city."
In the short period after being humiliated, people would usually let down their psychological defense. I intended to conquer Evan's psychological barrier at this time. Hence, I am naturally unwilling to end this time alone with him.
About ten min
minutes later, the car
stopped at the intersection of the business district. Evan, who was
usually calm, knocked on the
steering wheel with his finger
making him look particularly
anxious.
I knew it was time. I threw out the bait. "How have things been with your wife these years?"
Evan was probably thinking about something else. After pausing for a while, he answered casually, "It's good. I'm satisfied to have a son and a daughter."
I nodded, emotions suddenly surging in my chest. "That's true. It's good to be content with what you have."
Evan heard the disappointment in my words. He looked up at me from the rearview mirror and comforted me, "Mr. Hendrix always has his plans. You don't have to worry too much."
The quieter the environment, the
n
better the ability to read one's mind. It was unnecessary to comfort an "abandoned woman", but he did. This was enough to prove that Evan's respect for me had not changed.
The master and the assistant were the same. If he was not worried about me, Hendrix didn't need publicly to tell Evan to send me back.
I smiled bitterly and pretended to be
disappointed before I asked him, "Don't tell me, with your professional ability, you don't know that Hendrix can't clear himself once involved in the shady business?" "I have confidence in him," Evan replied.
"So you will take the side of the devil and watch him go further and further down the wrong road?"
"Mr. Hendrix can't be wrong." Evan was stubborn as a stone.
A fly can't bite a seamless egg, not to mention a stone. I was exasperated. I could only sadly lower my head and say to myself, "It seems that you trust him completely."
As soon as I finished, Evan's cell phone rang.
The caller ID showed his wife's name.
Without avoiding me, Evan pressed the answer button. His voice was much more cheerful. "Hello, honey?"
His voice made the air in the car flirty and sweet. The corners of my lips curled up. His happiness was infectious.
However, the voice coming from the speaker immediately disrupted the calm atmosphere.
"Dear, come back quickly. There are a lot of thugs at home..."
