True Love Waits novel Chapter 875

Ten minutes later, Evelyn's car slowly drove away. Sheffield put his hands in his pant pockets and stood still, watching the car disappear from his line of sight.

'This sneaking around can't go on forever. I'll have to face Carlos and ask for his permission. Evelyn, just wait till I finish what I have to do.'

When everything was over, he wanted to settle down and be with her.

The arrogant, sexy smile was back on his lips.

At ZL Group

It was late at night. A man appeared at the entrance of the company with two paper bags.

He whistled a tune as he entered the lift and went up to the regional CEO's office.

There were very few people left on the floor. Among the assistants, only Nadia was still there.

She was surprised to see Sheffield at the office, but took the initiative to greet him. "Hello, Dr. Tang."

He replied with a smile, "Hello, Nadia. Did you guys lose track of time? You're so hard-working. Here, I got you some food."

Nadia stared at the bag in Sheffield's hand, and refused at once. "Thank you, Dr. Tang, but I'm not hungry—"

"Don't worry. I bought two. Eat!" He put the bag on her desk.

Seeing the desserts in the bag, she stammered, "Um, Miss Huo doesn't eat desserts."

Sheffield smiled and replied without hesitation, "She will."

Nadia was speechless. 'He behaves so confidently in front of Evelyn, ' she thought.

He pushed the button of the automatic door and entered Evelyn's office without knocking.

Evelyn was busy writing something, and when she looked up, she was surprised to see him. "What are you doing here?" she asked. It had been almost a week since they had seen each other.

This was his first time in her office. He walked straight to her after scanning the room and its decoration. He put the paper bag on her desk. "I missed you. I haven't seen you in days, and you showed no signs of coming to see me. So, I obviously had to take the initiative."

He realized long ago that nothing would ever progress in their relationship if he left the decisions to her.

Evelyn looked at the bag and asked, "What's this?"

"It's the Hokkaido chiffon cupcake and milk cake. I also brought you something to drink. You must be hungry; you've been working for so long. Have something." He took out the desserts and the cheese tea.

He had waited for more than an hour outside the company building, but the lights in Evelyn's office stayed lit. That was when he had decided to buy her some refreshments and see her in her den.

Evelyn shook her head. "I don't eat dessert or have sweet drinks."

Sheffield ignored her protest. "Did you know that sweet food can make people happy? You work so late and I bet you are stressed as hell. Having something sweet will change your mood and you might even be able to work more efficiently."
