Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 802

After she placed the burning incense in the censer, Evelyn took a stack of money from her purse and put it in the collection box before she left.

There were many things that were new to her, many things that she never saw in Y City. Evelyn couldn't help herself. She was drawn to the souvenirs.

"Tayson, I'm kinda thirsty." She forgot to bring her water bottle with her when she left the car, and there wasn't a convenience store in sight.

After checking her surroundings with concern, Tayson accidentally saw a man smiling at Evelyn from a distance. "Wait here. I'll get your water. I'll be back soon," he said.

"Okay." Evelyn waited for him under a bodhi tree.

As she took her phone from her bag, a shabbily-dressed old woman walked towards her. "Miss..."

Evelyn raised her head and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Ahem! Ahem! Miss, can you do me a favor?" The old woman looked to be in her eighties. Her voice was thin and reedy once she cleared her throat. She was too weak to stand on her crutch. She looked pitiful.

"What is it?" 'Did she want money?' Evelyn was ready to give her some.

The old lady said with a smile, "I want to bring some food for my granddaughter, but I don't have the money for the bus, and I can't go on foot." She looked at her crutch with disdain. "Can you go for me? Ahem..." The old woman didn't seem to be in good health. She kept coughing.

After a short pause, Evelyn answered, "I don't know. Your daughter might be out of my way."

"There's only one road out of town. She's just past the checkpoints at the border." She showed Evelyn the backpack. "It's not too heavy. There's not a lot in there. I made some buns for her, and I packed some sugar and a few other things. Will you please help me?"

'The border checkpoints?' Evelyn knew about the border checkpoints. When they arrived in town, there were a few lines waiting to be inspected, and it took them twenty minutes to get through the checkpoint. All kinds of people crossed the border, so the inspectors were quite strict.

"So how do I get a hold of your granddaughter?" Evelyn was too kind to turn her down.

The old woman handed her the backpack and smiled kindly. "Thank you, miss. You are a good person. I have her teacher's phone number..."

"Wait!" When Evelyn was looking at her slightly worn-out backpack, a familiar male voice rang in her ears.

She turned around to see who it was. It was Sheffield.

He grabbed the rather heavy backpack from Evelyn's hand and gave it back to the old woman. "Sorry, we can't help you!"

The old woman looked like she was going to cry. "Who are you? She promised! Please, help me!"

"I'm her friend. You need to find someone else because we're not leaving the town today," Sheffield said with an expressionless face.

All of Evelyn's regard for Sheffield left after he turned down the old woman. In a cold voice, she said, "I'm going back this afternoon, Sheffield."

Instead of answering her, Sheffield stood in front of her and tried to drive the old woman away. "Hey, lady! Scram! She has a bodyguard! You're lucky, I like you. But her bodyguard? He doesn't like anybody."

Tears streamed down the old woman's face. "All right! Ahem! Ahem!"

Disappointed in him, Evelyn walked around Sheffield to confront him, and said angrily, "I can make my own decisions, guy! Did I ask you to do it for me?"

"No, it's not like that..."

"Cut the crap. I don't want anything to do with you! You're not special, not romantic. Just mean!" Then she strode off.

When Tayson ran towards them with a bottle of water, Evelyn told him coldly, "See that guy over there? If he comes any closer, get rid of him!"

"Evelina, it is not like what you think. Listen to me. That old woman..."
