Take My Breath Away

Chapter 855 - He Wants To Make Us Happy



Dollie's face darkened at Evelyn's words. "What are you talking about?"

"What am I talking about? Don't try to play your little tricks on me. I don't care about Sheffield Tang at all. He's yours for the taking!" After saying that, Evelyn turned and left, leaving Dollie and Sheffield alone.

Taking a look at the man she was with, Dollie was annoyed. He still wore that exasperating smirk. "The nerve of that woman! She said she didn't care about you!"

"I don't care!" He cared about her, and he believed that Evelyn would finally care about him one day.

'Does she really think I'm a pushover? How could she say something like that?

Should I teach her a lesson?

Probably. There is no time like the present. She even flirted, got me all hot and bothered, and wouldn't allow me to touch her. No way! It's time to give her something to think about me with!' Sheffield made up his mind.

It was already quite late and the wine-tasting party was over. When Sheffield walked out of the hotel with Dollie, they met Joshua and Evelyn again.

This time, Sheffield just waved to Joshua and said, "I'll take Dollie back. See you tomorrow, bro!"

"See you!"

Then without saying anything to Evelyn, he and Dollie got into his car. He had already hired a designated driver. After all, he had more than a little wine tonight, and he wouldn't drive drunk.

In the Xiang family's villa

Sheffield put a bottle of red wine on the table and said to Sidell, "Mr. Xiang, here's a bottle of red wine. I bought it at the party. I think you'll love it."

Sidell recognized the brand of the bottle of red wine, and he also knew that the wine-tasting party they participated this evening was all of high-grade red wine. He smiled and his eyes narrowed into slits. "Oh! How considerate of you, Sheffield."

"The honor is mine. You've been looking out for me at the hospital. I just want to give you a bottle of wine to express my gratitude."

At this time, Raven Zhao, Dollie's mother, left the kitchen and put a plate of fresh fruit in front of Sheffield. "Sheffield, have some fruit."

"Thank you, Mrs. Xiang!" Sheffield said politely.

"Don't mention it. Just eat!" Raven Zhao already considered Sheffield as a son-in-law, and was only too willing to spoil him.

They chatted for a while in the living room downstairs. Then Sheffield told Sidell, "Mr. Xiang, I have a few questions about research and development I want to ask you."

"Really? Let's move this talk to the study, shall we?"

"Okay!"

The two of them went to the study, and the mother and daughter continued to watch TV and talk in the living room.

"He's such a great guy. Dollie. You should do more for him," Raven Zhao said to her daughter.

"I know. I'll ask Dad to figure out whether he has feelings for me in a couple of days," she said, nodding.

"Come on! Why bother? If he didn't like you, why would he take you to the wine-tasting party and give your father such an expensive bottle of red wine? Obviously he wants to make us happy."

"I'm not sure." After all, he seemed to care for Evelyn a lot.

Raven Zhao shook her head and said, "Think about it. Your dad says he's a womanizer, but that's your problem. You should hold him tight and spend more time with him, so he won't have time to hang around with other women."

This time, Dollie didn't say a word. She did want to spend more time with Sheffield, but he was always super-busy, and she could only see him every once in a while.

It was very late when Sidell and Sheffield left the study. Sidell said to a maid, "Go clean a guest room. Sheffield, it's really late. Just stay here. We'll carpool to the hospital tomorrow."

"Well, I don't want to impose." Sheffield was kind of embarrassed.

Hearing them talking, Dollie came over and took Sheffield's arm. "There's nothing to worry about. Dad's right. It's late. You can't drive because you had a few drinks." If it weren't for her parents, she would have let him sleep in her room.

"Dollie, behave yourself!" Sidell told his daughter helplessly.

Dollie stuck out her tongue and made a face. She shook Sheffield's arm and said, "Don't leave tonight. We have tons of guest rooms. And it's quiet here. Just stay for a few hours."

Finally, Sheffield nodded in embarrassment. "Okay. Thank you, everyone."

"You don't need to be so formal with us. We're practically family. And we will be, if you marry Dollie. It's getting late. Get some sleep!" Sidell said, sounding as if the two of them were an item now.

Sheffield nodded his head as if he didn't think Sidell said anything wrong. "Okay. Good night, Mr. and Mrs. Xiang. Sweet dreams, Dollie."

"Good night, Sheffield!"

All was peaceful at the villa of the Xiang family. Lying in bed and staring at the ceiling, Sheffield started to think about the layout of the study.

In the dead of night, he silently opened the door and walked to the innermost part of the second floor.

After he found the breaker box, he flipped the switches and turned off the electricity to the den.

He stood there silently for a few moments. After confirming there was no one awake, he walked into the study.

After closing the door, Sheffield took out a miniature flashlight from his pocket and paused in front of a cabinet.

He opened the cabinet and saw a black safe inside.

He idly spun the lock of the safe, and wondered what sequence Sidell would use to unlock it.

After closing the cabinet door, Sheffield searched the study for his objective, but to no avail. So everything he wanted must be in the safe.

Thinking of this, he turned off the flashlight. After coming out of the study, he turned on the electricity again and slipped back into his room.

Sheffield wasn't able to fall asleep in the Xiang family's villa. He tidied himself up and sent a message to Dollie. "There's an emergency at the hospital. I have to go now. I didn't want to wake you up, so have a good night."

After he left the villa, he didn't go back to the hospital, nor did he go to his apartment. Instead, he went to the gated community where Evelyn lived.

He turned on his computer and hacked into the community's mainframe. After two minutes, he'd hacked into the security system and turned the cameras off. It took another couple minutes for him to set up a routine where the monitors simply replayed a random selection of what had already been recorded. He could go inside undetected.

He left his computer on and got out of the car. He found a wall that was not too high, took a few steps back and quickly clambered over it.

After entering the area, he went straight to Building A06.

On the ninth floor of Building A06

When the doorbell rang, Evelyn was asleep.

However, as she was a light sleeper, she woke up quickly. Sheffield only had to ring twice.

She thought it was Tayson, but as soon as she opened the door, she saw a man rushing in. "Evelyn!" The familiar male voice rang in her ears, and she fell into a familiar embrace.

"Why are you here?" How did he get in? How did he know that she lived here?

Regardless of her struggles, he closed the door of her apartment and pressed her against the door. He kissed her lips and said, "I came here because I miss you so much!"

Evelyn was held tight in Sheffield's arms. After some hesitation, she asked, "How did you get in?" There was passcode for the door to this building.

"It doesn't matter." The most important thing was that he really missed her. He locked her fingers with his and pressed her against the door.

"Let go of me!"
