True Love Waits novel Chapter 853

Dollie was not a short girl, but Sheffield was taller than her, after all. That was why he had to lower his head to look inside her ear.

Meanwhile, Dollie actively leaned closer to him. So, obscured by Sheffield's body, it looked like they were kissing.

"What part of your ear hurts?" Sheffield asked. He didn't find anything unusual in her ear, no spot, no swelling.

Taking a step back, Dollie rubbed her ear and said shyly, "I think I'm all right now. Thanks, Sheffield." After saying that, she bowed her head and touched her lips with the back of her hand.

Her face was as red as a rose. Anyone who was looking at them behind Sheffield would figure out what he did there.

Holding a glass of wine, Evelyn kept her same cold expression when she saw them. When she passed by them, she was about to make a detour.

"Evelyn?" asked Sheffield as soon as he spotted her.

Today, Evelyn wore a white, sexy, backless, deep V halter dress, revealing her lovely back. Even the two dimples of Venus on her lower back could be seen clearly. Sheffield's eyes practically left his head to follow her.

Evelyn stopped in her tracks, turned around and nodded to him indifferently. "Mr. Tang." Then she continued walking.

Sheffield had come to this wine-tasting party with Dollie for another reason entirely. He didn't really want to taste the wine, nor did he care about Dollie. Now that he caught sight of Evelyn, he was thrilled, completely forgetting about Dollie. He quickly caught up to her in an upbeat mood. "Evelyn, we need to talk," he said.

"We have nothing to talk about."

"Actually, we do. At least tell me why you're angry, so I can apologize." She was really confusing him.

Seeing this, Dollie ran up to him and grabbed on to his arm. "Sheffield, didn't you say you'd help me pick out a bottle of wine?"

Sheffield had wanted to break free of Dollie's grip, but Evelyn didn't want to talk to him. She walked away heartlessly. He stopped and looked at her receding figure. Sighing, he had no choice but to help Dollie with her wine dilemma.

When Joshua found Sheffield, he was paying for the bottle of red wine he had picked out. "There you are, dude!"

Sheffield threw him a glance. "And right on time, too. I have something to ask you."

"What's on your mind?" Joshua asked.

Dollie watched the worker pack the bottle of red wine. Sheffield took a few steps away from her and whispered to Joshua, "Evelyn's mad at me. But I didn't do anything to piss her off. Do you know why?"

"Mad? You tell me and we'll both know," Joshua replied, jokingly.

The doctor sighed, "Just forget I asked."

He then walked around the venue and soon found Evelyn.

There were many men around her, all trying to get a word in edgewise. From time to time, she would respond with a faint smile.

Casting a glance at the diminished amount of red wine in his glass, Sheffield asked a waiter who carried a tray to fill his glass.

He approached the woman with a full glass of red wine.

At first, Evelyn had run into an acquaintance and was chatting with him. But she started attracting all sorts of attention. She wanted to leave, but they kept asking her questions. So she had no choice but to at least smile and nod.

"Yes, Mr. Li's right, but ZL Group—" Evelyn was interrupted by someone bumping into her. She felt a spreading moisture around her waist. Then she heard a familiar voice. "Ouch, who hit me?! Oh, my God! Miss Huo, I'm so sorry. Look, it got all over you. I'm really sorry!"

Sheffield kept apologizing, but there wasn't the slightest bit of guilt in his eyes.

Evelyn's face turned cold at his words. With a smile, he took off his suit jacket and apologized to her once again. "I'm sorry, Miss Huo. I stained your dress. But don't worry; I'll buy you a new one." He gently draped his suit jacket over her shoulders, covering her back.
