Chapter 1088 Parasites
Gwyn was sleeping with Debbie that night, so Evelyn was alone in the room.
Even though she heard the door, Evelyn didn\'t take her eyes off the book. The smile on Sheffield\'s face froze. He knew that he was a dead man. His wife was angry.
But as usual, he had no idea why.
"Honey, I\'m back!" As he reminded himself to be careful in his approach, he placed his coat on the sofa, loosened his tie and walked towards the bed.
When he got close, Evelyn smelled alcohol on him, mixed with a trace of perfume. She looked at him, and the first thing she saw was the red mark on the left shoulder of his white shirt.
Evelyn rested her eyes on the mark and said with a fake smile, "Oh, Mr. Tang is finally back."
\'Oh, she is definitely angry, \' he thought with a sigh. "Honey, who pissed you off?" Sheffield asked in a soft voice and pulled her into his arms. As he spoke, the warm breath of wine hit her face.
Evelyn didn\'t try to break free. "Let go of me," she said coldly.
"Okay." Sheffield let go and sat on the edge of the bed. "Will you tell me what happened?"
"You\'re asking me what happened? Go and look in the mirror."
Sheffield\'s eyebrows shot up in confusion. He stood up and walked to her dressing table. "Why do you want me to look in the mirror?
Are you trying to tell me that I\'m such a handsome man?" he joked. Evelyn rolled her eyes and pretended to read the book.
In the mirror, Sheffield noticed the red mark on his shoulder. He took a closer look and saw that it was a lipstick mark. His eyes widened. There had to be an explanation.
He racked his brains to find out when this had happened.
In a few seconds, the memory came back to him. He rushed to Evelyn, crossed his fingers and swore, "It was Mr. Shao, that son of a bitch! He sent his wife to seduce me. But I swear, I didn\'t touch that woman. She sat next to me for about two minutes, and I sent her away soon after. Her lips might have brushed my shirt while she tried to whisper something to me. It was an accident. Nothing happened between us."
uffer too. But..." He held her at arm\'s length, looked her in the eye with a smile and went on, "Now that we know what they are up to, we should not play by their rules. Let\'s fall more in love and piss them off. You agree?"
Evelyn finally smiled. She cupped his face and said softly, "Honey, remember that no matter what happens in the future, I will always be there for you. I will support you unconditionally. I love you."
Sheffield\'s heartstrings pulled, swayed and danced. \'How could I ever not love this woman? She\'s the best!\'
He held her face and kissed her on the lips again. "I\'m so happy to have you in my life, Eve."
"Me too," she said, kissing him back passionately. Her life was beautiful now; she had her parents, siblings, Sheffield and Gwyn.
At the shareholders\' meeting the next day, someone impeached Sterling for everything he had done. Sterling knew that it was Sheffield\'s doing and got into a fight with him.
Tobias called Evelyn to tell her what was going on. He told her urgently that Sheffield and Sterling were alone in the meeting room and that no one was allowed to enter.
He was aware that the two men were having a fight, but didn\'t know who had the upper hand. Worried that Sheffield might get hurt, Tobias asked Evelyn to come over and stop them.
At Theo Group
A black Emperor pulled up in front of the building. Before Felix could get out of the driver\'s seat, Tobias, who had been waiting at the entrance all along, rushed to the car and opened the door for Evelyn.
