Chapter 340 He’s Already
Protective of Her Before They Get Married
“Huston rarely shows his romantic side. How could we be left
out!” Marcellus strolled over with his hands in his pockets, exuding a carefree demeanor. The delightful
atmosphere brought a touch of joy to his handsome face.
Kevin glanced at him and said, “We’re not with him.”
“Oh, you’re so heartless!” When Marcellus saw the bouquet and ring in Evelyn’s hand, he couldn’t help
but click his tongue. “I’m so jealous!”
Matt, standing aside, said to Huston and Evelyn with a teasing look in his eyes, “Congratulations.”
His expression made it seem like Huston had just got married
to Evelyn…
Only Mabel’s reaction seemed relatively normal. She looked at Evelyn’s happy expression and felt
happy, too, especially when she saw the beautiful ring on her hand. It was simply captivating and hard
to take one’s eyes off.
Evelyn understood in her heart that Huston probably wanted to surprise her, and he felt it wouldn’t be

moment together. This already
indicated his sincerity and seriousness about this matter.
After exchanging greetings with each other, they took their
seats. Huston sat in the main seat, and Evelyn sat next to him. They had been friends for many years,
so everyone didn’t mind the seating arrangement and sat wherever they wanted
1. to.
Soon, the waiters brought the dishes, which were beautifully
arranged on the plates. Although the portions were small,
there was a variety of options. As a three–star Michelin
restaurant in Jewel City, the food had excellent taste. Pairing
it with a glass of white wine enhanced the overall dining experience, providing both physical and mental
enjoyment.
“Remember when we discussed who would be the first to
get married? I always thought it would be Matt, but who would have thought it would be Huston? Kevin,
you nailed it!” Marcellus recalled the bet they had made among themselves. Two years had passed in
the blink of an eye, and none of them
could have imagined that Huston would be the first one.
After all, in their eyes, besides being mature and steady like an elder brother, Huston appeared quite
ruthless and indifferent. There weren’t many girls who could capture his
heart, and moreover, he wouldn’t give anyone a chance.
Who could have imagined that halfway through, Evelyn would unexpectedly bring him under control.?
Thinking of this, Marcellus felt a little uneasy, “Ah, I didn’t
expect that our cool and aloof Huston would be conquered by
someone like this…”
He sighed twice in a row as if it was really a pity for him.
Huston looked at him with a gaze that was almost as sharp as
a knife.
Upon hearing this, Evelyn felt her face burning up. She sensed that everyone was intentionally teasing
her, and for a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmoment, she couldn’t resist the embarrassment. She quickly
came up with an excuse and slipped away, saying, “I’ll go to
the restroom for a moment.”
She took the napkin on her leg aside, got up, and was about to leave. Mabel echoed, “Let’s go
together.”
Looking at Evelyn’s back as she left in a hurry, Huston pursed his lips helplessly and looked at
Marcellus with a smile in his eyes. “Evelyn is shy. Watch your words.”
“What did I say?” Marcellus’s face was full of innocence as he
hooked onto Kevin’s arm exaggeratedly. “Look at Huston. He’s
already protective of Evelyn before they even get married. He
doesn’t even allow jokes anymore!”
Kevin pulled his arm back and rolled his eyes at him. “Do you think everyone is like you? You’re so
shameless and never feel
embarrassed.”
“Hey, you guys!” When Marcellus saw that everyone was attacking him, he sat down and stopped
talking.
Kevin and Huston exchanged a glance, and suddenly, Matt interjected, asking, “But seriously, with all
this, are you implying that you’ve recognized Evelyn as your lifelong partner?”
