"No..."

"So you'll keep your promise?" He was as happy as a little kid again

Evelyn felt a headache coming on

Seeing the baffled look on her face, Sheffield stopped smiling and sat back in his seat. He said in a calm voice, “Relax, alright? I like you but I won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. Just have fun."

Evelyn was at a loss for words. This was the first time she had gotten to know a man like him. A trickster, capable of highs and Lows. He was as unpredictable as women were said to be. But his words did set her mind at ease.

She had mixed feelings about him. This guy was really weird-so hard to understand.

Back at the guesthouse, Sheffield lazily leaned against the doorframe of her room, hands in his pants pockets. When he made sure that Evelyn was safe, and her bodyguard was back at his station, the doctor walked back to his room, whistling a tune.

Evelyn washed her face, changed into her pajamas and began texting her friends on WeChat.

"Busy now?"

The person on the other end texted back in a heartbeat.

"No. How's your trip? Having fun yet?"

“Well...yeah. But I found a weird guy. I've been staying with him all day."

“Wow! Do I detect a budding romance? A bit quick, isn't it?"

Instead of replying to her joke, Evelyn wrote, “Calvert called me again today."

“Did you talk to him?"

"Yes."

This time, her friend didn't text her back as quick.

"Don't change your mind. Don't go back to him. Calvert isn't the right guy for you, trust me."

"I know. He said Rowena didn't mean it like that. He wanted to talk to me.

"You've been together for six months, and you guys talked a lot. But it always ended up in a big fight. Just have fun on your trip, Piggy.

Don't let him pee on your parade. Just give the other guy a try. Maybe he's the guy for you.”

‘Give Sheffield a try?' Evelyn hesitated and idly looked at the sea outside the window, preoccupied.

After a long while, she sighed and clicked her friend's dialogue box again.

"He's three years younger than me. I don't want... I don't know.

I feel pretty comfortable around him."
