Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 882

"Calvert and Evelyn went on a date. It's all over the tabloids. Photos of them leaving the office together, going on a date, and Calvert driving her home. They even interviewed Carlos. Do you know what he said?" Joshua told his friend in a grave tone.

Suddenly, Sheffield had a bad feeling about this. "What did he say?" he asked.

"Carlos said that Evelyn and Calvert were dating right now. They're getting engaged."

Sheffield fell speechless. He had just woke up. How could his woman be about to get engaged to another man after a scant few hours? How could he have lost her that fast?

However, Sheffield tried to brush it off. "He's trying to make me give up. I won't fall into Carlos' trap."

"Well, duh. But Evelyn's about to get engaged to another guy. Why are you acting so calm?" Joshua felt anxious for his friend.

He regretted turning Carlos down when he suggested Joshua get engaged to her. At least he might be able to let them see each other, if covertly. But now they had a problem. Calvert loved Evelyn with all his heart. There was no way he was letting her out of his sight.

After a moment's consideration, Sheffield said, "It doesn't matter. Evelyn loves me. This is so much fake news. We'll figure out a way through it. But enough about me. What about you? How's it going between you and Terilynn?"

Joshua didn't even know how to answer that. His friend was losing the love of his life, and he was asking about him? Sheffield didn't seem the least bit concerned. But when it came to Terilynn, Joshua was happy. "Well, I kind of benefited from Calvert exposing the news that you were dating Evelyn. Terilynn thinks I'm a victim and feels bad for me. Ha-ha!"

Terilynn invited Joshua to dinner and explained in a roundabout way that her sister didn't mean to hurt his feelings. She tried her best to comfort the man. They were getting along pretty well, all things considered. They had a chemistry, an easy way about them. They were comfortable with each other.

Sheffield rolled his eyes and said, "A man and his son-in-law are natural enemies. Now we have the same enemy. With us against Carlos, he'll be the one on the ropes. Now get lost. I need my beauty sleep."

Joshua couldn't believe his ears. "How can you be so heartless? Evelyn is getting engaged to some other guy. How can you sleep at a time like this?"

"You don't get it."

"What?"

"I need more sleep. Carlos is not dumb, and with no sleep I won't be able to outwit or outfight him. Just leave me alone, okay?" Sheffield opened the door and kicked Joshua out of the apartment. Bang! The door was closed and the living room was quiet.

After a while, a bright light shone in Sheffield's eyes. He went back to his bedroom, took out his phone and sent a message to Evelyn. "Eve, do you love me?"

If Evelyn texted him back a "yes," he would heave a sigh of relief. He wouldn't even mind if Carlos announced her marriage to Calvert publicly.

But if Evelyn said no, then his heart would be torn into pieces. His heart hurt at the thought.

He waited for more than ten minutes, but no answer.

Sheffield leaned against the headboard and turned on the laptop. He contacted an old friend and asked, "Is that file repository you set up still there?"

Since Carlos had so much time to deal with him, he decided to make trouble for him so that he wouldn't have time to mess with him. But for that, he needed some special software. Software that his friend had stashed in that repository.

After everything was done, there was still no reply from Evelyn, which made him restless. He took a shower, changed his clothes and left the house.

In the CEO's office of ZL Group

Dixon knocked on the office door and strode in. "Mr. Huo, the IT director reported that a hacker penetrated our firewall last night. Every computer in the office has been infected by a strange virus."

Carlos, who was focused on the market of the aquamarines, frowned at the news. "What happened?"

"Our IT guy said that our security suite was old and it's time to upgrade."
