Mr Carlos Huo, She's Your Wife novel Chapter 978

Debbie pushed the door open. She gently reminded her daughter of what was to come. "It's time to go, Evelyn."

Evelyn nodded, acknowledging Debbie. "Yes." She stood up and walked out of the lounge, holding Debbie's arm firmly.

Debbie looked at her daughter, sighing inwardly. She was beautiful and radiant in her dress, but Debbie could tell from her stone face that she was sad.

Miranda and Matthew didn't come to the engagement ceremony today, so only Debbie, Carlos and Terrilynn were there.

The MC's happy and eager voice was soon heard all around. "Ladies and gentlemen, now let's welcome our bride-to-be, Miss Evelyn Huo."

The happiness in the MC's voice sounded ironic to her.

A wave of applause broke out among the guests. Evelyn loosened her arm from Debbie and stepped onto the stage in her white high heels.

She was wearing a white off-the-shoulder evening dress. Her permed long hair fell on the shoulders. She wore make-up that made her features appear delicate. Her lipstick was a wonderful contrast to this, with its red hues. There was no doubt in anyone's mind that Evelyn was the shining star of the night.

The MC was standing in the middle of the stage, and on the other side was Calvert in a black suit.

Evelyn didn't turn to look at the guests. She didn't even care how many people there were under the stage and who they were. She just wanted the engagement ceremony to be over as soon as possible, so that she could leave this place. She tried her best not to show it, but it was all starting to suffocate her.

When Calvert placed a diamond ring on her finger, she tried to force a thin smile.

The crowd would not stop clapping. Their applause almost seemed deafening now. A man leaned against a wall, swirling a glass of red wine in his hand, and his eyes never averted from the woman on the stage.

"Kiss her! Kiss her!" someone in the crowd exclaimed.

With a smile, Calvert looked around the hall and noticed the man in a grey suit leaning against the wall. 'He is here.' The smile on his face grew bigger. Finally, he had won over Sheffield this time.

He lowered his head and drew closer to Evelyn. Just as he was about to kiss her on the lips, she turned her head all of a sudden. The kiss fell on her hair.

The lights on the stage were dimmed, and this gave the illusion that the couple had already kissed. The guests had no idea that the kiss fell a little flat.

Only the MC beside them saw this scene clearly. He suppressed his own embarrassment for them and pretended not to see anything.

When Joshua found Sheffield, the man and woman on the stage had just "kissed" each other. He patted on the doctor's shoulder and teased, "Bro, I admit that I can't understand your feeling of being cuckolded, but you can always cry on my shoulders."

Sheffield flashed him a smile.

However, before Joshua could say anything else, Sheffield blurted out all of a sudden, "Screw you! Who is a cuckold?!"

"Whoa! Finally, you can't hold back your anger. Take it easy, dude."

Casting a sidelong glance at him, Sheffield sneered, "Do you want me to give you a piece of my mind?"

"I was trying to console you, but now you treat me like this. You've lost your mind!"

"Get out of here, before I really lost it and rearrange your face!"

Joshua pursed his lips. It was all he could do to control himself and respond in kind to Sheffield's backlash. "Bah! Listen to you. You're not making any sense. There's no point in even talking with you."

Sheffield turned his eyes back to the stage and warned him, "I'm in a bad mood now. Just leave me alone. Don't make me vent my anger on you."

Joshua didn't want to embarrass himself, or make a scene. He nodded and acknowledged Sheffield, then clinked glasses with him and said, "Bro, I'll go find Terilynn first. Stay cool."

With that, he walked away, leaving Sheffield alone. The engagement ceremony on the stage was over.
