Chapter 583 Private Journey
Huston leaned weakly against the trunk, and his eyes were gray. He was like an emperor who had lost
his kingdom, like a prisoner who had been abducted. “She was just disappointed with me and didn’t
want to return to me.”
Huston would rather believe that Evelyn didn’t love him more than accept that she was dead.
It caused Kevin to be speechless. His concern caused him to fall into chaos, and his rage faded. All
that remained was suffocating despair and depression.
Kevin let go of the man before him and fell onto the wet lawn. His chest heaved up and down as he
gasped for breath. His clean clothes were stained with mud, and his throat hurt from the air. “It’s been
five years, Huston. You should learn to let it go. Evelyn needs peace. Last week, Grace Glenn showed
Evelyn a cemetery. Evelyn’s parents went there, and we also went there. When Evelyn was alive, she

The man’s body stiffened. Over the years, Ben and Lucy had never erected a tombstone for Evelyn
because they didn’t want to believe their daughter had passed away, but now they agreed.
It was as if a string that had been taut had been broken. His persistence and stubbornness dissipated
with the wind, leaving
only the withered reality, which was ridiculous.
It was as if someone was whispering in Huston’s ear, “Look, even Evelyn’s parents have admitted it.
What’s there to lie about?”
After saying that, Kevin left. Kevin knew that Huston had listened to him. As for how to decide, Kevin
couldn’t change Huston’s mind. Kevin could only let Huston figure it out himself.

Huston sat on the grass in a daze. A security guard on night patrol passed by in the distance. His
flashlight swept over the man’s body, and he thought he was idle. When he came over and saw that it
was Huston, he immediately apologized and left.
He just looked back in confusion from time to time. Huston’s back was shaking violently in the night.
His shoulders trembled slightly, and the bottom of his suit pants was stained with gray sand. The cold
wind in the early morning blew, lonely and downcast.
What was Huston of extraordinary status doing alone in the grass at such a late time?
The security guard shook his head. Maybe the rich also had their problems.
Huston didn’t know how long he had been sitting there. It was until dawn that the smell of alcohol all
over her body dissipated.
Thinking of the cemetery and what Kevin had said, Huston
felt as if there was a heavy stone weighing a thousand pounds pressing down on his heart.
You can never wake a man who pretends to sleep. No matter what others said, whether it was a
stranger or her parents, Huston did not believe Evelyn was dead.
There was always an inexplicable force that made Huston

Huston took out the private phone in his pocket and found that the battery was only 5%. He opened the
contact list and dialed his assistant’s number. “Book a plane ticket to Lownon for me, Roland.”
At four or five o’clock, the assistant was a little confused. “Mr. Lloyd, I haven’t been to Eoland recently.”
“Personal trip.” Huston interrupted her in a hoarse voice, and his eyes were deep. “I’ll leave
immediately on the nearest flight.”
After hanging up the phone, the image of the people in the Breathing Earth below Lownon appeared in
Huston’s mind. There was the sound of the Big Clock ringing through the clouds and the flock of white
pigeons by the Tame River.
He needed to empty himself and spend time to heal the trauma in his heart. If he couldn’t calm down,
he would hug the crowd.
Huston expected everything, but he didn’t expect that this trip would change the trajectory of his life in
the future.
