Take My Breath Away

When Savannah and Evelyn were in high school, they had lived together. Neither of them felt like cleaning their dorm room. Debbie hadn't taught Evelyn anything about domestic chores. Despite being a neat freak, Evelyn didn't know how to clean. At first, she could bear the mess. But a few days later, when she couldn't stand it anymore, she hired an hourly worker to clean their room.

Evelyn laughed at Savannah's comment. "I can just hire more housemaids."

"Yes, that's right. Our Evelyn is never short of money," Savannah joked back.

Evelyn smiled and said, "Savannah, you need to take good care of yourself. I really worry about you."

"I know, and so do I. How are you feeling right now? Are there any aftereffects?" Savannah knew about her ectopic pregnancy. Evelyn had told her.

"I feel a little uncomfortable during my period, but everything else is fine."

"That's good to hear!"

"Anyway, wish me a successful blind date."

Shaking her head, Savannah said, "That's not gonna work out, Evelyn. You can't do it. You have someone else in your heart."

If Evelyn hadn't fallen in love with that man, she wouldn't have slept with him. And although she refused to see him now, he still held a place in her heart.

Evelyn's heart skipped a beat at her words. She changed the subject. "I gotta go. I'm going back to the company now. I have a lot of work to complete."

"Okay. Take care of yourself."

"You too. Bye!"

After hanging up, Evelyn stared blankly at the seat opposite her.

After a while, she noticed that there was someone in the room other than her. As she watched, the man sat in the empty seat in front of her.

He looked at her with a smile. "Silly girl."

His voice brought Evelyn back to the present.

When she didn't say anything, he stood up from his seat and walked over to her. He slowly bent down close to her with an evil, attractive smile. "You had been looking at that empty seat for a while. Did you miss me already?"

She stood up to leave.

But Sheffield grabbed her hand. "Eve."

She tried to get rid of his grip, but

y. How could Sheffield let her go so quickly? He blocked the door. "I will let you go if you give me your phone number. I can send you a message when I miss you, even if I can't call you."

"Damn you! Get out of my way!" Evelyn yelled.

Sheffield grinned and put his arms around her waist. He then slowly whispered in her ear, "Please, don't be angry. I'll get out of your way. Anger doesn't suit you, Eve..." With that, he let go of her and moved away from the door.

Evelyn stared at him.

It was surprising that he always took the initiative to give in first.

Even when Evelyn opened the door and walked out of the room, Sheffield didn't chase after her.

She felt both relief and loss.

No sooner had Evelyn left than Sheffield received a call from Joshua. "Bro, help me!" he said urgently.

"What's wrong?" Leaning against the wall, he watched Evelyn leave.

"I have a blind date the day after tomorrow. I need you to come with me!"

"What am I supposed to do? I'm not single anymore. I have a woman!" Sheffield spat.

"I hate to admit it, but you are more handsome than I am. If you come along, she might get drawn to you and I can get out of the date!" Women fell for Sheffield so easily. The first time Joshua had met him, he almost turned gay for a second.

"What the hell are you talking about? I'm not coming with you. I have a girl, and I'm loyal to her."
