Sterling lowered his head, his lips twisting into a grimace before transforming into a bitter smile.
Evelyn was overwhelmed with embarrassment, finding it hard to bear the shock and disbelief.
“Why would I make up something like that? With my own two eyes, I saw him in bed with my wife. He was just a teenager, but he was bold enough to sleep with a woman who was five or six years older than he was. Not just any woman, his brother's wife. Who does that? That's not it. Not only did he sleep with my wife, but he also molested our sixth brother's girlfriend. They ended up breaking up a year later, and he ended up marrying another woman..." As he spoke of the past, Sterling's eyes drowned in bitterness.
“Mr. Sterling, what made you tell me all of this shaking her head with disappointment.
Evelyn frowned,
“I didn't realize that Sheffield's pursuit of women had gotten so bad.
Look, you seem Like a good girl. I just don't want you to get hurt by a womanizer Like him."
Evelyn's voice dripped with ironic sarcasm, as she spared a moment to glance at him and said, “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Sterling. I assure you that there is no need to be concerned because I can take care of myself and I know how to judge people. I don't need unwanted advice from someone I don't know."
Having considered all the things he had just said to her, Sterling thought she would have hated Sheffield by now, but it didn't work out that way. Since Evelyn's implications of him being a telltale were made clear, he looked at her awkwardly and said, “If you say so, Miss
Evelyn." Then he turned around and faced the security guard behind him.
“Let Miss Evelyn in.”
"Yes, Mr. Sterling.” The guard nodded and gave him a salute.
After all, Sterling was the general manager of Theo Group.
The security guard trotted over to Evelyn and said, “Please, this way,
Miss Evelyn."
Evelyn nodded at the guard politely but then looked at Sterling with a cold glare and said, “Thank you, Mr. Sterling.”
However, before Sterling could say anything else, she strode forward and passed through the gate.
The elegance with which she walked away Leaving Sterling behind aroused a deep desire in his heart.
If only this woman were his.
