Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 964

Matthew was bewildered by Carlos' question, his face even darker.

Sheffield, however, was frightened. He didn't think Carlos was joking. To prevent any further misunderstandings, he stopped smiling and said seriously, "No, Uncle Carlos. You misunderstood us. I'm not gay. Now Matthew is a good-looking guy, but I prefer girls, like the lovely Evelyn."

Carlos cast a scornful glance at his son and commented, "At least you have good taste. Evelyn is much more skilled, much better-looking than Matthew."

Matthew was used to being compared unfavorably to his siblings. He snapped, "Yeah. She's better than me, and I'm better than you."

Carlos' eyebrows furrowed. "Ask Sheffield. He'll tell you who is more handsome: you, or me."

'How do I choose? Whoever I don't pick will be mad at me.' Sheffield swallowed his saliva nervously. That wasn't an easy question to answer.

"At least I'm not a big baby like you!" For the past couple years, Matthew saw that his dad was becoming more and more childlike. He lost his temper easily, throwing a tantrum when he didn't get his way. He often did things that were completely out of character for him.

Sheffield preferred to keep his mouth shut. It was a terrible battle, this conflict between father and son. And he preferred not to get hit by a stray metaphorical bullet.

Matthew continued, "You're always pretending you're better than me. But if you're so good, why didn't you know that the company's security system has been hacked?"

"What?" Carlos was taken aback. "Who did it? Was it you?"

"No. That guy." Matthew pointed to Sheffield, who was peeling nuts for Evelyn.

"Is he..." 'Star Anise?'

Before Carlos could say the name, Matthew interrupted him. "Star Anise? No. He's the hacker's disciple, Eleven."

Carlos looked at Sheffield with suspicion.

The smiling doctor played dumb. "No, I didn't break into it at all. I just found some loopholes that my master taught me. Don't worry, your security is still airtight."

Evelyn overheard their conversation. She asked timidly, "Are you really...Star Anise's disciple?"

Instead of admitting it or denying it, he just told her, "Some other time. But not now." If he got a chance, he would tell her everything.

He wouldn't tell anyone else, but Evelyn was special. She had the right to know everything about him.

The fact that Sheffield was Star Anise's disciple prompted Evelyn's mind to wander.

She recalled the time when her computer was infected by a virus. She didn't believe that Sheffield could fix it for her. In fact, Evelyn told him to just go home.

Now she realized that it might be him who had fixed it.

She was uncomfortable when she thought about it. Sheffield was a hacker, and she hadn't realized it at all.

Before long, dinner was ready. This mealtime was fairly lively, because Sheffield was friendly and easy to talk to. He had a quick wit and that devilish smile.

During the meal, Sheffield put a slice of meat in Evelyn's bowl and whispered in her ear, "I want a son, but I'm worried. Our father treats Matthew like shit. I don't want that for our son. Not at all." Boys were not popular in the Huo family. Sheffield decided maybe they should try for a daughter instead.

With a complicated look in her eyes, Evelyn answered in a low voice, "You can have a daughter, but..." She took a quick breath and continued, "Maybe with another woman."
