Chapter 270 Mia Is Cunning
“Dizzy?” Huston supported her with one hand and reached
into her pocket. “I’ll call George and ask.”
“No need!” Mia firmly held his hand, but with little force,
gently resting it. “I just came back and still need some time to adjust…”
Speaking of this, she looked up at Huston, her black eyes full of sadness as if she was about to cry. “Huston, can you stay here with me today?”
Huston looked at the time. It was almost two o’clock. At this
time, Evelyn was probably asleep. She had just made a phone call and asked him in a daze when he would go back. He said it would be soon, but now…
Huston looked at Mia in his arms and unconsciously withdrew his arm a little. “I’ll call Kevin over so he can take care of you at
night.”
“No need.” Mia refused, and there was a hint of
embarrassment in her eyes. “Huston, today is my first day back in the country. I just want you to accompany me. Even if we don’t say or do anything, I hope I can have someone by my side, not just myself.”
Huston’s grip on the phone gradually tightened. He was hesitant. He knew that he should go home, and he had promised Evelyn. But Mia had not fully recovered yet. HeBelongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
couldn’t leave her alone here.
Mia tugged at the corner of Huston’s clothes and begged, “I know you’re busy. Just this day, okay?”
In the end, Huston’s heart softened, and he nodded in
agreement.
Mia was overjoyed when she got the result she wanted. It had been a long time since her pale face had such a lively expression, and Huston felt bad when he saw it.
“I’ll stay with you. You must be tired after such a long day. Wash up and go to bed early.”
Mia nodded and lowered her head to change her shoes.
Her slippers, which were the size of her soles, had already
been placed in the shoe cabinet. Mia was touched and said,
“Huston, thank you for what you’ve done for me.”
“What are you talking about? This is what I should do. Go upstairs and wash up.” Huston smiled faintly.
“Okay, wait for me.” Mia turned around and went upstairs.
Although she didn’t walk very fast, she was steady.
As he watched Mia’s figure disappear from his sight, Huston turned around and walked to the floor-to- ceiling window in the living room. He took out his phone, and his fingertips kept tapping on the screen. He repeatedly revised a short message several times before finally sending it out.
After sending the message, Huston put his phone on the windowsill. It seemed that he was holding a hot explosive bag
in his hand.
He held his breath and waited for a few minutes. The phone was quiet, and no one called. His tense mind was finally
relieved. Fortunately, Evelyn was asleep. He didn’t know how to explain if she called directly.
It was the first time he didn’t come home due to social
engagements, and on top of that, he was currently hiding and deceiving.
Outside the window, the night was pitch black. Although
Huston was in a warm room, he could almost feel the cool
breeze. He gently closed his eyes, afraid to delve deeper into his thoughts.
