"Hello." Evelyn was playing on her phone, so when Sheffield called her, she picked up quickly.

He could hear her soft voice clearly in the quiet room. It warmed his heart.

"Eve, I need to see you," Sheffield said in a hoarse voice.

"Now?" Evelyn turned to Look at Savannah, who was sitting next to her.

She hadn't seen Savannah in a while and was enjoying catching up.

“Yeah, now!" Sheffield couldn't wait another second. His heart was practically leaping from his chest.

Evelyn didn't want to say goodbye to Savannah yet.

“Not a good time.

How about tomorrow? I'm with Savannah now," she said, pouting.

“Hey, if you need to go, then do it. Remember, I'm back in the city for good, so we can meet up whenever you like. I'm good. Really. Just drop me off at my place and do what you gotta do," Savannah offered.

Evelyn hesitated for a while and then nodded her head.

“Okay. I need to drive Savannah home first. Where do you wanna meet?" she asked.

“Anywhere is fine by me,“ Sheffield answered.

It was not until then that Evelyn realized that something was wrong with him. But she couldn't just come out and ask him right now. Not with Savannah there. And because of that, Evelyn was too shy to suggest meeting him at his apartment, so she said, “ALL right. Call you when

I'm done.”

"Okay."

After ending the call, Evelyn looked at Savannah, who was smiling.

“Evelyn, I'm so glad that you met your Mr. Right."

She didn't know if Sheffield really loved Evelyn, but she knew her friend definitely had it bad for him. When she answered his call, she was practically glowing. Her mood lifted. She was a completely different person.

Compared to her indifference in the past, she was now tender and shy.

Evelyn lowered her head and said shyly, “Thank you." She herself was glad that she met a guy like Sheffield. She grabbed Savannah's hands and said, "Savannah, believe me. You'll meet the right guy someday."

Savannah lowered her head and looked at her legs, shaking her head.

“Even my own mother hates me. No man‘s gonna fall in love with a cripple, ' she thought bitterly.

When Sheffield walked out of the cafe, he spotted a group of people leaving the offices of the Theo Group. He didn't get into his car; instead, he walked across the road to get a better look.

A dozen led a gray-haired man to a car, and made sure he was safely inside. The deference they showed him meant that he was important to them.
