Sheffield pulled up a chair and sat down in front of Evelyn. "The others were on patrol duty."
"So, you just sneaked in?" she asked.
"Yes."
She was perplexed.
Sheffield grinned. "Co on, I'm not a bad guy. Why do you have to bother about all the minor details? I only ca to bring you so food."
"You could have just called instead of going through all the roundabout thods."
The man shrugged and replied casually, "I wanted to surprise you. If I had called you in advance, then what would have been the point?"
Evelyn didn't argue further. He had an answer for everything.
"Evelyn, how about you leave the rest of the work for tomorrow?"
"No, there are a few more docunts awaiting my signature. They are needed for tomorrow's eting." Evelyn put the dessert aside and began going through the docunts on her desk.
Sheffield stole a glance at the file she was reading and saw "Y City First General Hospital" written on it. "Oh, it's the contract with our hospital."
"Well, thanks to you, ZL Group will be cooperating with your hospital once again." She rembered their negotiation eting with the First General Hospital.
Sheffield's lips curled into a grin. "You love so much."
"Go away!"
"No, I won't. I am waiting for you to finish your work. Let's go out and have so fun!"
"Forget it. I'm not coming anywhere," she refused straightforwardly.
"Fine, I'll go ho then," replied Sheffield without arguing.
Evelyn was surprised that he had given up so easily. "You are going ho?" She looked up at him.
"Yes, to your ho," he answered, tilting his head a little with a wide smile.
Evelyn chided, "Get out!"
"No, I don't want to. I want to be with you."
"Out! Now!"
"What will I do outside? Besides, I like being inside. It's so much more fun, isn't it?" he smirked. "How about you let inside and we can enjoy ourselves a little?" Evelyn's breath caught.
She gave him a cold stare and cursed, "You're so shaless!"
"What's there to be ashad of when I'm with you?" He didn't feel the need to hide anything from Evelyn. He wanted her to see him, as he was.
Evelyn was fed up with his flippant tongue. Blushing, she ordered, "Shut up!"
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other won.
Eventually she stord off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishnt.
dn't confront Evelyn face to face, nor did he plan on teaching Sheffield a lesson. Instead, he asked Joshua out for a al. Alone.
Needless to say, Joshua was freaked out. He called Sheffield. "Your future father-in-law has invited to dinner. I have a bad feeling about this."
"I have a bad feeling about that too," Sheffield replied as he continued to delete horrid comnts about Evelyn online.
"What should I do?"
"Beats , dude." If only he could read Carlos' mind. Sadly, he couldn't. Few people ever knew what was on Carlos Huo's mind.
"Why did you have to show off your affection for Evelyn publicly? Now, Carlos has found out. Are you happy now?" Joshua scoffed. "But which dia company was bold enough to reveal gossips about Evelyn Huo?" Although the news had been suppressed temporarily, it had already reached the masses.
"It was Calvert Ji," said Sheffield casually. Calvert had spent a large sum of money bribing a dia company. The legal owner of the company was soone completely irrelevant to the Ji family, so even if the whole thing went south, no one would suspect the Ji family. After the dia had exposed Sheffield's relationship with Evelyn to the public, Carlos destroyed the company, but the culprit, Calvert, managed to stay out of it and remained untouched.
"That guy? Is he trying to get his revenge on you?" Joshua knew what had happened between Sheffield and Calvert.
"He has no other reason to do this," Sheffield replied.
