Kaylee blew out a mouthful of smoke in a sensual manner.

“Sheffield's a lucky guy. He charmed a beautiful woman like you. But don't mind me.

You know many women are head over heels for him. You're just one of them. Men are greedy. You should keep an eye on him.”

Evelyn stood there, her eyes devoid of any emotion.

"You may be right.

But I'm pretty sure Sheffield's not Like that. Thanks for the warning, though."

Her tone was flat, but she was naturally noble and aggressive. It shone through her words, and Kaylee was intimidated.

That was really annoying!

"You're welcome. Let's go. I'LL guide you in." Kaylee randomly threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it to put it out, then walked into the Thompson family's house.

Evelyn glanced at the cigarette butt on the ground. With a frown, she turned to Felix and stretched out her hand.

“Hand me a tissue," she requested.

Felix pulled out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to her. Evelyn bent over and picked up the cigarette butt from the ground, tissue wrapped around it.

Kaylee walking ahead felt that Evelyn wasn't following her. When she turned her head, she saw that the CEO was bending over to pick up the cigarette butt. She smiled, "Looks like you're a germophobe too, just

Like Sheffield."

Without answering her question, Evelyn wrapped the cigarette end in the tissue. She found no wastebaskets anywhere nearby, so she handed it to

Felix and said, "Throw this away."

"Yes, Miss Evelyn!"

Then, Evelyn turned to the woman opening the door, and shook her head.

"I'm not a clean freak. I don't want this cigarette butt to affect the way people see the family."

"You're so good at pretending, '‘ Kaylee thought scornfully

Nonetheless, she just smiled and said nothing.

Peterson hadn't gone to bed yet. He was still burning the midnight oil in his study.

Sheffield was AWOL, so naturally he had to take charge of the company again.

As soon as Kaylee knocked on the door of the study, she heard Peterson through the door.

“Come in!" he said.
