Chapter 890 When Will Daddy Come Back?
Bert didn't take advantage of the situation. After he returned to Jewel City, he didn't see anyone else except for
Huston. He also hid it from Evelyn. He just asked someone to keep an eye on her at all times and inform him if
anything unexpected happened.
During the day, he worked in his apartment, and at night, he liked to find a place to have a drink alone. There were
not many beautiful memories for him in Jewel City. For him, it was a place where Evelyn was.
Huston was not by her side and Evelyn spent most of her time with Lucas. However, the child had already gone to
school and spent most of the day at school. When she was free, she would always let her imagination run wild. One
or two days was fine, but after a month, she began to become anxious.
She would wake up from nightmares in the middle of the night and lie in bed, unable to fall asleep. The source of all
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthis was the man who had just left.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Lucas noticed that something was wrong when he looked at her pale face during breakfast.
Holding the bread in her hand, she did not care about the meal. When she heard Lucas calling her, she came to her
senses and forced a smile. "Mom is thinking about something."
Lucas opened his mouth and took a bite of the bread. After swallowing it all, he rolled his big eyes and looked at
Evelyn again. He asked cautiously, "Mom, when will Dad come back?"
It had been half a month since Huston left. Ever since the father and son had reunited, it had not been that long
since they left.
His question made her heart skip a beat. Afraid that the child would see through her, she said nervously, "Dad
hadn't finished his business yet. He'll be back when the work is done."
"When will the work be done?" Lucas blinked his big eyes expectantly, which made her unable to look at him.
"Dad will be back as soon as possible." She didn't dare to give him a definite time, for fear that he would be
disappointed. "Do you miss Dad?"
Lucas nodded without hesitation. "Yes..."
Every night when he finished his homework, he would play alone in the room and miss his father. In the past, his
father always played with him at night.
The child was so soft-hearted that even Sadie, who was pouring milk for him, couldn't help feeling sad.
She wrapped her arms around his small body. The anticipation and disappointment were shown on his fair and
tender face, causing her heart to ache. This time, Huston had left for her and Lucas. If she continued to be
dispirited, all the pain would be meaningless.
She couldn't do this. Lucas still needed her, and the family also needed her. She couldn't be defeated like this!
"Good boy, Lucas. Mommy is here. Daddy went out to work to make money to support you and Mommy. He misses

Hearing this, Lucas raised a happy smile and fiddled with his little head like a rattle drum. "Okay! Let's wait for
Daddy to come back together!"
She suppressed the heat in her eyes and stroked his little head lovingly. "Okay."
On the other side, Huston's treatment was also in progress. The amount of addictive substances in his body was
extremely high, and the frequency of attacks became more and more frequent. His consciousness was also
becoming more and more blurred, and his body quickly lost weight. Not to mention his appetite, every time the
attacks occurred, the feeling of his body being drained of all strength was already tormenting enough.
It was too painful and too torturous. No one could feel the corrosion of all his blood and bones. It was as if a pair of
tweezers had peeled off his blood vessels, and his body twitched uncontrollably. He even wanted to hurt himself.
The doctor came in and tied his hands and feet to the bed. The bed shook violently. It had been a long time before
it gradually calmed down.
He had to experience this kind of thing once or twice a day. Every time, he would have the illusion that he couldn't
hold on any longer. Every time he wanted to give up, what Evelyn had said when he left would flash across his mind.
He couldn't give up just like that. She was still waiting for him to come back!
