"Don't you have to go out today?"
Life seemed to be back to normal and peaceful again, but he felt like something was missing.
Evelyn didn't even give him a second glance.
“No, I don't need anything right now."
Sheffield and Evelyn had been to shopping the day before her birthday and got her almost everything she needed. Why would she head out only to get something she already had?
Carlos stayed silent, but he didn't budge, only to stare at Evelyn with narrowed eyes. Evelyn could feel his gaze on her, and when she couldn't handle it anymore, she put the pen in the file and looked up.
"Dad, what's up?"
“Oh, nothing." Carlos walked silently only to sit opposite her. At first, he pretended to play on his phone before clearing his throat to gain her attention.
“Where's that boy, Sheffield? Has he been pestering you lately?"
"No!" Evelyn frowned and cast her curious gaze at him.
"He's been so busy lately that he couldn't find time to see me." She paused for a moment to ponder over the reason why her father had been worrying about
Sheffield so much.
"Dad, you don't need to keep an eye on him all the time." She could only think that her dad came here to catch Sheffield.
“I don't." Carlos snorted.
“What are you thinking about? I'm here to ask you what you want to eat for Lunch."
"Well, Dad, you decide. I have canceled the appointment for Lunch."
"You don't have any appointments for Lunch?" Carlos's ears perked up at that.
Evelyn sighed helplessly and rubbed her forehead.
"No. Dad, what do you want to say?"
"Nothing." He shrugged.
"I'll have lunch delivered to my office.
Remember to have Lunch upstairs." Carlos stood up and walked towards the door.
Evelyn swept her gaze at her father's stubborn back.
"Okay, I will."
