“If Sanchez Group wants to control the market of the aquamarines, they have to get permission from Hilton Group first," she said between gritted teeth.

With a cunning smile, he told Evelyn in a soft voice, “Oh, I'm sure

Hilton Group will agree."

A dash of annoyance flashed across her eyes. Her father was backing up

Calvert.

"I won't be threatened by anyone. No one can force me to do anything I don't want to do."

"I know." Calvert sat back in his seat and loosened his tie.

"The top producer of aquamarines in the world is from Mipburg. If I make a phone call to the producer, the supply to our country will be stopped immediately," he explained.

"Evelyn, are you sure you want to cause a crisis in the jewelry market over one dinner?"

There was an eerie satisfaction on his face. This was the way he always did things. He never stopped until he got what he wanted. He didn't care what he did, or who he hurt in the process of achieving his goal.

Evelyn began to pack her things.

“You're right. I don’t want the market to crash over a measly meal, but..." She glared at him and added, "This dinner will just make me hate you even more.”

Calvert's face turned stiff for a moment. But, he quickly adjusted his mood and said, “That's all right, Evelyn. I want you. When we spend time together, you will realize how much I love you."

Evelyn was not new to such sweet talks.

Ever since she had met Sheffield, he had used all kinds of honeyed words on her every day.

But no matter what he said, she didn't feel annoyed. He made her feel good.

But now, after hearing Calvert's sweet words, she didn't blush, nor did her heart beat any faster. Instead, she felt disgusted.

The next morning, as soon as Evelyn arrived at the company, the news of what had happened last night was Leaked online.

The gossips claimed that the only son of the Sanchez diamond empire was dating the eldest daughter of Hilton Group again. A picture was posted which showed the two of them going to the fifth floor of the Alioth

Building. About an hour later, they came out of the restaurant together. The media even boldly stated that they were getting married soon.

Sheffield had stayed up Late in the research lab the previous night.

So, he was now sleeping in his apartment when both his phone and the doorbell rang simultaneously. He checked the caller ID and answered the phone impatiently, “Dude, it's early in the morning. You're being very noisy!"

“Hey, buddy! Open the door. Something is really wrong," Joshua said.

“This better be important or I will strangle you!" he yelled.

"It is important!"
