Fortunately, Evelyn was only pleading with him instead of other men, because she wouldn't be able to bring herself to do that.
"If you don't want to let her go, it's okay." Evelyn took a deep breath.
"I can understand. I was just asking."
She regretted as soon as the words left her mouth.
The thought of Sheffield's feelings hadn't even crossed her mind when she opened her mouth.
Before she could think more about it, Sheffield sent her a carefree smile.
"Now that you've mentioned, I have to agree. If I don't, I'iL end up humiliating you."
Evelyn's heart jumped when she heard his flat tone. She knew she had hurt him, but his tone was so emotionless that she couldn't tell what was going on in his mind.
She glanced at him awkwardly.
"No, it's not Like that..."
"You don't have to explain. If I don't let Dollie off the hook, wouldn't I look Like a hostile person?" Sheffield paused for a while, only to give her a faint smile.
“After all, she was only a child back then." He despised the phrase “she was just a child" so much that he felt his vomit crawling all the way to his throat. Sheffield hated saying it.
This was when Evelyn was able to sense a touch of irony in his tone, and she panicked.
"Sheffield," -she grabbed his big hand in a hurry-"it doesn't matter. I will support you, no matter what." She paused and licked her Lips in anticipation.
“I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked. I just feel bad for Savannah. From now on, I won't do anything to cause you more pain."
His gaze lingered at the intertwined fingers for a long time, and his expressions melted.
“Evelyn, you're my love. Of course, I will listen to you." There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes that Evelyn didn't fail to see.
She was the woman he Loved the most.
He hadn't doubted the feelings he held in his heart. His eyesight darted in Evelyn's face. Was he the man she loved most?
After all, she had never said she loved him.
Evelyn had already guessed what was going on in his heart, and a flush of guilt flashed on her pale face. She didn't know what to say.
Sheffield sighed and pulled her in his embrace without letting go of their intertwined hands.
“Well, I know what to do, but..." He buried his face in her shoulders.
“Evelyn, I'm so disappointed in you."
Still, he would not blame her. After all, she was the love of his life.
