Right after reading the final chat in the thread, everyone finally ended the conversation as no one dared to try and reply further. Scared of the consequences of their gossip, some of them even deleted the messages they sent within the Last two minutes.
Meanwhile, back in the elevator, Sheffield and Evelyn did not have the slightest idea that rumors about them had already been spreading among the company employees. When they arrived at Evelyn's private floor, the elevator doors opened.
Walking towards her office, she gritted her teeth while she grabbed him by his ear. Holding the bouquet of red roses in one hand, Sheffield covered his ear and said, "Evelyn, you were right and I was wrong. Come on, please be gentle with me. Take it easy!"
Ignoring his plea, Evelyn did not go soft as she continued to drag him into her office.
While they were on their way to her office, they met Nadia who had just returned to the office. Staring at them with so much shock, she even forgot to greet her own boss.
After they entered, the door behind them closed automatically.
Taking off his sunglasses, Sheffield put them inside one of his pockets. He then took his ear out of Evelyn's grip as he pulled her into his arms. He coaxed, "Come on, babe. Don't be mad at me anymore. I was just kidding! You don't have to take it so seriously."
“Oh, really? How do you expect me not to get angry? What if they talk about me behind my back? What if they spread rumors and gossip? Of course they will surely say that I'm so horny that I wasn't able to get a grip of myself back in that elevator!" Raging with anger, she hit him in the chest with her balled fist.
Sheffield then put the flowers aside. Holding her tightly in his arms, he said with a smile, “If anyone dares to gossip about you, just fire them first thing in the morning! Babe, please don't be mad anymore!"
Pinching his cheek, Evelyn asked angrily, “Will you do it again?"
“No, no, no. I won't even dare. Not again, not ever! Babe, please forgive me. I'm really sorry!" ‘Wow! Evelyn has always been an indifferent woman, yet now she is so mad that she's becoming a shrew...
Wait, no, I can't describe her like that, ‘ Sheffield thought to himself.
Taking a deep breath, Evelyn loosened her grip and said, “Just sit there! Wait for me. Don't move. And don't you dare say a single Core
"Okay!" Sheffield trotted to the sofa, lay on it and took out his phone to play games.
Meanwhile, Evelyn sat in her chair and started working. ‘Ugh! Damn.
He's such a freaking jerk!* she cursed inwardly.
Ten minutes later
“Babe, I want to go shopping with you..." Sheffield said, sounding weak and sad.
But the woman only cast a cold glance at him, which made him petrified.
Twenty minutes Later
“Babe, you must be hungry!" exclaimed Sheffield carefully, as if he were diffusing a bomb.
Coldly, Evelyn answered, "I'm not!"
Thirty minutes Later
Running out of options on how he could mend things with his girl,
Sheffield offered, "Babe, it's dark outside. Plus, there are many street food stalls in the streets! I don't think you've eaten them before. Come with me. Let me take you there and grab some food."
