Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 1034

As soon as Sheffield plugged his phone in the car and it turned on, calls after calls came in. Most of the calls were from unknown numbers, so he didn't bother to call them back.

Whistling a tune as he started the car, he left the Tang family's house in a good mood.

While he was stopped by a red light on the road, his phone rang again. He happened to notice the caller ID and found out that it was Evelyn. In an instant, he put on his Bluetooth headset and answered the phone. "Hello, Miss Huo."

"You're the one who did it," Evelyn stated calmly; the certainty in her voice was so apparent.

'Wow! My woman is so smart!' he thought with a smile. But he didn't want to give in that easily so he played dumb. "What did I do?"

"About the news. You did that on purpose." Obviously, the kiss that morning was intentional.

Sheffield curled his lips into a smile and said, "Yes. But you know what? I just earned five million for selling that piece of news. I'll come to you after work. We can share the earnings equally." On one hand, now that their relationship was out in the public, he could openly announce to the world that Evelyn was his girlfriend. On the other hand, he could get a large sum of money from selling bits of information to the media. What a perfect plan! He got the best of both worlds.

Rubbing her aching temples, she complained, "You betrayed me just for five million?"

"How could you say that I betrayed you? From now on, people will always put our names together. You are my woman and I'm your man. We're happy together. And above it all, we can get some money out of this relationship. It's a win-win situation, don't you think?"

Evelyn could only sigh while she listened to him. She was honestly getting pissed off by this cunning man.

"Are you mad at me? Evelyn, may I just remind you that you lied to me? It was also you who abandoned me two years ago. But now, all I did was tell the whole world that we're together. What are you so afraid of? Or do you still want to hide our relationship?" The wide smile on his face faded away as his tone gradually became dejected and upset.

"No, it's not like that..." Truth of the matter was, it didn't matter to Evelyn. She just felt a little caught off guard. Their relationship was still not stable yet and they didn't even have a chance to discuss it. But suddenly, their relationship was revealed to the public in a way that she didn't expect or would have liked.

"Because of this, it would now be impossible for Mr. Huo to find another man to replace me. I told the reporter to take pictures using high definition lenses so my face is shown clearly. From any angle, anyone would be able to tell that it was me."

Evelyn rubbed her aching temples again. She could imagine the smug expression on Sheffield's face on the other end of the line. "Anyways, what did Sexton do to Theo Group?"

"I haven't arrived at the company yet so I don't know the details. But please don't worry about Sexton or the news concerning our relationship. I'll take care of everything. If the reporters come to interview you about us, there are two choices for you. One is to just give implications and the other is to acknowledge it blatantly."

'Is there any difference between the two choices? No matter what I choose, I'll just admit that we're dating, ' Evelyn thought silently to herself. When she realized her options, she just sighed helplessly. She knew there was nothing more she could say so she just said, "Drive safe!"

She decided to let him be, as long as he was happy.

No sooner had Evelyn hung up than Carlos called. "Dad," she greeted.

"Why is your relationship with him revealed at such a time?" Carlos asked, going straight to the point.

"We were accidentally photographed by reporters." Evelyn didn't dare to tell her father that it was Sheffield who disclosed it to the media. She was afraid that her father would punch Sheffield again.

"Do you need me to take down every single piece of news about this?"

"No, Dad. There's no need for that." Evelyn tried to calm down her father. Besides, what would be the point? She wasn't planning on being with any other man other than Sheffield in this lifetime. It would be fine to reveal their relationship to the public. Just like what Sheffield had said, people would place their names together from now on. If she were to be branded as Sheffield's woman, it went the other way as well. No other woman would try to approach him now.

"Okay then. By the way, Sexton has made a move on Theo Group. He had been conspiring with Langston and some others. Did you know this?"

"Yes, I do. I heard about it when Peterson called Sheffield this morning," she openly responded.

"What is Sheffield going to do about him?"

Evelyn shook her head even if her father couldn't see her. "I don't know. He told me not to worry about it. He said he's going to handle it."

In her voice, there was both helplessness and affections. She didn't know or didn't even care if her father could sense the latter.
