Sheffield? He has already left you!"

"So what?" Indeed, he had left, but he was always in her heart and in her thoughts.

“Evelyn, if you insist on calling off the engagement, I will tell the press that you were with Sheffield! I admit that Rowena and I had a relationship. But Evelyn, you weren't completely innocent either." He was desperate. At that moment, he was ready to do anything to keep her from backing out of the engagement.

Evelyn wasn't afraid. She sneered, "Calvert, I've been telling you right from the beginning. I don't love you, and I don't want to be with you. But you wouldn't Let go. You only brought us to this point with my father's help. But it's over now. You can do whatever you want. You want to expose my relationship with Sheffield to the world? Please, go right ahead. That way, I might actually have a chance to be with

Sheffield. We might not have everyone's blessings, but as long as I can be with him, I will be happy. Though, I wonder what you would do. Would you marry Rowena? Do you think everyone will bless your union with your dear sister?"

Now that things had come to this, it was a clear showdown between the two of them.

Calvert yelled, “No!" He grabbed her wrist forcefully.

“It was not easy for me to get engaged to you. I won't allow you to leave."

Enduring the pain from his grip, Evelyn closed her eyes and said firmly, "That's not up to you. I'll announce that the engagement has been cancelled. Don't bother me anymore." This was her chance to get rid of him forever. She wasn't about to Let go of this opportunity.

She had to bring this drama to a close soon and go find the man she had lost.

Staring at the cold woman, Calvert had no choice but to concede.

"I'LL take responsibility. I'll tell the media that I cheated on you, as long as you don't break off the engagement."

“That won't be necessary." She had already made up her mind to break it off with him.

Sheffield was right. She had never made any efforts to further their relationship. She had been a coward in the face of love, and she could no longer turn a blind eye to his affection for her

“Tell me, what should I do to keep our engagement?”

Meeting his eyes, Evelyn replied coldly, “No matter what you do, I'll break off the engagement. Give up, Calvert."

With his full strength, he pulled her closer to him. His eyes turned dark.

"Evelyn, you cannot be with him. You are mine. So, you give up on that ideal"

He let go of her and left the office without turning back.

As soon as he walked out of Hilton Group, he was surrounded by reporters who had been waiting to interview Evelyn. They bombarded him with questions.

"Mr. Calvert, did you come to see Miss Evelyn?"

“Mr. Calvert, the rumor on the Internet about your affair—is it true?"

“Did Evelyn do something wrong to you? Why did you do this to her? Why were you so ungrateful?"

“It hasn't been long since you got engaged to Miss Evelyn. And the rumors claim that the other woman is your step-sister. How do you feel right now? Are you feeling guilty? Ashamed?"

Calvert did appear to be guilty as he was swarmed by the cameras
