Chapter 313 Would You Like to Talk to Me?
These words invaded Evelyn’s ears, leaving her stunned and
disoriented. In an instant, panic took over her. No matter how
resolute she had been throughout the night, hearing the bad
news about him, she couldn’t help but sound choked up, “How
is he now? Is he okay?”
“He hasn’t regained consciousness yet. We need to perform gastric lavage first.”
Evelyn’s heart suddenly clenched with pain. She hurried downstairs to retrieve her car keys without
even having time
to change her dirty clothes. “Doctor Lane, wait for me. I’ll be
there right away!”
After hanging up the phone, Evelyn hurriedly went to the garage. With the thought of Huston lying in
the hospital, she was so flustered that she struggled to fasten her seatbelt,
attempting several times before finally securing it.
She had never driven this fast in her entire life. Normally, even slightly increasing her driving speed

110 miles per hour, and she didn’t feel a trace of fear. Thoughts
of Huston entirely consumed her mind.
Did he not come back last night just to drink all night? He drank until he had lost consciousness and
stomach bleeding.
Evelyn’s eyes became red, and she hastily wiped them with her hand, fearing that she couldn’t see the
road ahead clearly. The thought of him mistreating his body in such a way made her chest tighten, and
she struggled to catch her
breath.
It turned out that she was not the only one who was in pain. He was also in pain.
If she had known it would turn out like this, she would have forsaken all her pride and never pushed
him away.
It was a nerve-wracking journey, but Evelyn finally arrived at the hospital. She hurriedly headed
towards the department Kevin mentioned. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Kevin
and a group of doctors and nurses pushing
Huston, who was on a stretcher, toward the hospital room.
She ran up to him in a few steps. Looking at the pale man with his eyes closed, Evelyn felt as if
thousands of ants were biting
her heart.
A warm hand landed on her shoulder, and Evelyn turned her
gaze to see. Choking back her tears, she asked, “Is he… all
right?
“He’s temporarily stable, but his stomach condition isn’t good. He probably hasn’t been able to eat
properly lately
and has to rely on nutrition injections and a liquid diet,” Kevin replied. Seeing Evelyn crying heavily, he
could not utter the reproachful words he had intended to say. As she prepared to follow into the hospital
room, he blocked her path slightly. “Evelyn, I’d like to talk to you for a moment.”
Evelyn looked at him with red eyes and then at Huston, who
was pushed into the ward. After hesitating for a few seconds, she lowered her head and said, “Okay.”
Kevin sighed silently and led her into the director’s office.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMabel was organizing something in the office when she saw them enter. She made space for the two of
them, and before leaving, she patted Evelyn’s shoulder to comfort her.
“Have a seat.” Kevin poured a cup of hot tea and placed
it on the table in front of Evelyn. “Huston’s condition isn’t
very serious. You don’t have to worry too much. His physical condition is quite good, and he can
withstand the torture.”
The last half of his sentence was clearly filled with emotions, as he was somewhat angry at that man
for being so careless
about his health.
Evelyn put her hands on her legs and didn’t say anything.
“Did you argue?” Kevin tried to make his voice sound less tense, fearing that Evelyn would become
even more guarded. He spoke kindly to her, saying, “Did something serious happen. for Huston to end
up drinking like this? Are you willing to talk.
to me about it?”
Evelyn met his gaze, her eyelashes trembling slightly. After
hesitating, she anxiously asked, “Doctor Lane, do you know
the person in the villa in the northern part of the city?”
