True Love Waits novel Chapter 820

"Don't mention it. The edema hasn't gone away yet. Don't drink too much water," Sheffield cautioned, then turned around and left.

Down the hall, there was a TV mounted on the wall. The hostess's sweet voice came from the TV. "Now, put your hands together for..." The hostess said the name, but Sheffield didn't take note of it. He was too busy on his rounds. He adjusted the oxygen tube for the patient in bed No. 9.

When he turned around and walked towards the door, he heard someone muttering, "Who is that? She's gorgeous."

"I don't know. I've never seen her before. Just now, I heard that the hostess introduced her as a CEO. She's holding a press conference for some modeling show. And her name is...Eve...or something. Um, I can't remember."

Suddenly, a familiar voice reached Sheffield's ears. It was like a firework exploding in the air. "Good evening, everyone. I'm Evelyn Huo, large and in charge..."

He stopped suddenly. The girl who followed him closely almost bumped into him.

Sheffield turned around and took a few steps back, afraid that he was hearing things. He fixed his eyes on the woman on the screen as if she would disappear at any second.

The woman was in a black evening dress wearing a priceless ruby. She had never left his thoughts, and now there she was!

'What did the hostess call her just now? Eveline Huo? Evelyn Huo?'

At this moment, Sheffield couldn't help but ask himself, 'Are you really surprised? Are you happy or sad? You finally found her, but she isn't who you thought she was. She gave you a fake name, even!'

A woman in her fifties next to him asked Sheffield with a smile, "You okay, Dr. Tang?"

Her partner laughed and said, "I think Dr. Tang is a little preoccupied at the moment."

The crowd roared with laughter.

On the TV, Evelyn nodded to the audience gracefully and left the stage.

Sheffield snapped out of his reverie. "I'm okay. That woman's beauty shook me, that's all."

"Ha-ha! Dr. Tang, do you have a girlfriend? I can introduce you to someone, if you like."

With a half-joking smile, Sheffield replied, "Okay. Thank you for your kindness, ma'am. I'll treat you to tea sometime! Back to work!"

The woman couldn't help but grin from ear to ear while talking to a handsome doctor like Sheffield.

After checking the patient in bed No. 3, Sheffield went back to his office, took off his white gown and hung it in the closet. Then he took out his cell phone and called Horace. "Hey, I know your shift is over, but I need you to fill in for me!"

"I just got off work," Horace said angrily.

"I saw your kid looking at my racer models. Ask him to head over to my place and pick one tomorrow."

There was a display cabinet in Sheffield's house, showing off his racer models. Once when Horace and his son came to visit Sheffield after his leg was injured by Carlos' men, the boy spotted the display case. Since then, it was all he could talk about.

Horace got impatient with him and decided to buy one for his son so that the boy would stop talking about it. So he searched online and found any of them cost a pretty penny. There was no way he could afford that on his own. He decided that he would never let his son go to Sheffield's house ever again.

Horace shut his mouth, immediately changed his clothes and rushed to the hospital to work another shift.

When he arrived at the hospital, he found that Sheffield had changed into casual clothing. Leaning against the desk, he looked at his phone. It seemed that there was a video on it. Horace didn't pay attention to the video. Excitement was written all over his face. He asked Sheffield with the utmost care, "A racer model from your collection? And you want me to give it to my kid?"
