Finding Love in the Boss’s Embrace After Divorce

Chapter 12 Cook for Her

Huston approached Evelyn, attempting to gauge her temperature by placing his hand on her forehead. Unexpectedly, she evaded his touch, causing his eyes to narrow dangerously and his displeasure to intensify.

Evelyn dodged without thinking because she wasn’t sure what Huston was going to do.

This act softened Huston’s expression slightly. “Your fever has subsided.”

A brief silence hung in the air. Observing her tense demeanor, Huston averted his gaze before retreating into the kitchen.

Evelyn felt hesitant to walk away, given her recent experience of witnessing his anger the night before. She dared not test his limits.
