NovelEnglishSeeing the hickeys all over her neck in the mirror, Evelyn so wished she could kill the man! This was not the first time. Every time they slept together, she had to spend a long time trying to choose something to wear that would cover all the marks of love that Sheffield left on her. "Could you stop leaving these hickeys on me, for heaven's sake?"
"Okay, from next time," he replied briskly.
Evelyn rolled her eyes at him. Men were deceptive. She didn't believe a word that came out of his mouth!
Sheffield walked into the bathroom and wrapped his arms around her waist from behind. He looked at the red marks on her neck through the mirror and whispered near her ear, "Evelyn, this is tempting, and you look gorgeous. Can we—"
Evelyn stepped on his foot once, and tried to get him once again.

His voice was alluring and in spite of her rough behavior, Evelyn was aroused as well. To hide her excitement, she yelled, "Get out now! I need to freshen up!"
"Okay, love! I'll heat the breakfast for you." He let go of her after placing a gentle kiss on her neck. Whistling casually, he walked out of the bathroom.
Evelyn shook her head with a sigh. action
After breakfast, Evelyn changed her clothes. Sheffield was doing dishes in the kitchen. She asked, "Don't you have to go to work today?"
He looked back at her and answered, "Uh, no. I'm going to the research and development center."
"Are you free the day after tomorrow?"
"I am." It was her birthday. No matter how busy he was, he would spare some time to celebrate the birthday of his beloved woman.
After some hesitation, Evelyn asked, "Are you afraid of being hit by my dad again?"
Sheffield threw the rag into the sink. With a smile, he approached the worried woman. "Are you worried that my future father-in-law will give me a black eye again?"
Evelyn sighed, "I'm serious, Sheffield."

Evelyn was amused by his reaction. She tore a chapter out of Sheffield's playbook, and took the initiative to surrender. She walked over to Carlos with a smile and wrapped her arms around his arm. "That was mean of me, Dad. I'm sorry. Please tell me how the bidding is going."
Carlos' face softened a little, but he still feigned a hard tone. "Are you trying to appease me by acting like a spoiled child? You should stay away from Terilynn. She's teaching you some bad habits," Carlos reproached her.
Evelyn loosened her grip on Carlos' arm and said in a stern voice, "Well, since you don't plan on telling me anything, I'll make some phone calls and find out myself."
"Humph! Your attitude isn't helping gain any favors right now."
Resigned, Evelyn went on, "Dad, you won't tell me anything about the bidding. What else do you want me to do?"
'Why is he being so difficult?' It was obvious that her father was in a bad mood and wanted her to have a hard time.
"You will give up after asking me just once? Where is your patience?"
Evelyn felt helpless. "I have been trying to get it out of you since I came in. And you are calling me impatient. You're just being difficult." Carlos wasn't like this before. But ever since Sheffield's appearance, it had become harder and harder for her to talk to him.
