Glancing at the brand-new minivan, Evelyn asked, "Don't you have a car?"
"Oh, that's my friend's. He is busy. I don't want to bother him."
Evelyn looked away and asked, “Where are you going?"
“Wherever you are going." He ran to open the door for her and gestured for her to get in respectfully.
“Your ride is ready, princess!"
She smiled and got in the car.
From then on, no matter where Evelyn went, he accompanied her. To the snow mountain, and then to the cafe...
One night, Evelyn went out to buy some necessities. It was already past ten o'clock when she got back to her room. At that time, she saw a woman knocking on Sheffield's door
She stood frozen.
The woman looked familiar. So, Evelyn figured that she must be one of
Sheffield's colleagues.
It was a cold night, yet the woman was only wearing a sapphire silk nightdress, and had delicate makeup on. She was knocking at the door of a single man in the middle of the night. Anybody who saw this would have thought that something was going on between the two.
The door opened and Evelyn heard Sheffield's voice.
"Marcy? What's up?"
Marcy Watson lowered her head shyly and said in a low voice,
“Sheffield, I have something to ask you. May I come in?”
“Sure. Come in!" He made way for her.
The door shut close after Marcy entered the room.
The corridor was quiet. Evelyn went back to her bedroom with a stony face.
She changed into her slippers and drank some water as usual. Then, she opened her computer and checked her mailbox. There were so many unread emails.
She looked at the time. It was 10:46 p.m. Three minutes had passed since the woman, Marcy, had entered Sheffield's room.
Evelyn was so nervous that she fidgeted in front of the computer. She clicked on an e-mail, but she couldn't read a word of it.
Ten minutes Later, she stood up from her chair and walked towards the door.
Outside the room, Tayson was playing with his phone as he leaned against the wall not too far away.
When the door to Evelyn's room opened, he Looked up and put away his phone immediately.
