Take My Breath Away

"Hmm?" She was angry, but Sheffield had no clue why.

Evelyn raised her high heel-clad foot and stomped on Sheffield's. He was only wearing a slipper, so the heel dug into his flesh. "Ouch..." In pain, Sheffield let go of her instantly.

Evelyn took the chance to jog towards the door and fled the ward, thoroughly embarrassed.

Sheffield, left alone in the ward, sat on the bed. He was no less confused, and now had an injured foot as well.

'What happened to her? Why did she get angry all of a sudden?'

A few minutes later, he calmed down and closed the curtains. Then he turned on his computer.

He opened a surveillance video and fast forwarded through it. As he thought, several minutes of video were missing.

Sheffield ran a hand through his hair as he browsed the network shares. He found where the saboteur had hidden the surveillance videos and restored all of them.

The benefit to getting all the video back? He could see who sabotaged his race car.

However, he didn't recognize the guy, so he ran the man's image through an online background check. Fortunately, there was information in the database, and in less than 5 minutes he had a wealth of data on the guy.

Armed with this info, Sheffield was sure he could track this guy down.

He closed his laptop and texted Evelyn. "You home yet?"

Evelyn didn't want to reply to his message, but it was already past 1 a.m. Afraid that he might be too worried to sleep, she replied, "Yeah."

When he saw her reply, he grinned and tapped out a reply.

"Good. I'll let you go, so you can get some sleep. Just remember to climb in my bed when you're free."

Evelyn was rendered speechless. Why didn't she take her dad up on his offer to teach her martial arts? If she had, she'd be able to teach Sheffield a good lesson when he made her mad.

Evelyn hadn't called or texted him since that night.

Strangely, he didn't contact her either, not even a message.

Evelyn was worried. She wondered whether he was getting better or wors

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

new a lot of people liked her, she was not dumb enough to think that everyone did.

Sheffield put his hands on the car, on either side of her. "Remember, I am the one who loves you the most! No matter what happens, don't run off with another guy."

"No way! The man that loves me the most is my dad."

Sheffield smiled. "You're wrong there. Your dad loves your mom the most. I'm the one who loves you the most and I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

Evelyn had nothing to say to that. He was right. Carlos loved Debbie more than anything. "But Dad loves me too, more than anyone else." Although she was angry her dad wouldn't let her be with Sheffield, she knew why.

Carlos did what he thought was best for her.

Sheffield grabbed her hand and whispered gently in her ear with a wicked smile. "Evelyn, remember, I'm the one who loves you the most, not your dad."

His breath was so warm that Evelyn was turned on. To hide her blushing face, she pushed him away and said, "Go upstairs. I'm going home."

"So soon? But I just got here!" said Sheffield sadly.

The longer she looked at him, the more reluctant she was to part with him. "See you later." Tonight, she promised her father she would come back to the manor. She couldn't be out too late.

Sheffield pulled her into his arms, kissing her affectionately.
