Take My Breath Away

Carlos had registered Gwyn's name in the Huo family's residence booklet. They hadn't changed the kid's ID card or family name yet. So, they decided to talk about the shares transferred to her after they handled everything else.

After the Huo family and Tang family saw all their guests off, Sheffield also said his goodbyes to the Huo family. He was about to climb into Peterson's car when Evelyn called out to him.

She jogged over and said, "I'll drop by tonight. We need to talk."

"Okay. I'll pick you up—if I can get off work early."

"No, thanks. I'll get Felix to drive me to your place."

"Okay, see you tonight," said Sheffield in a gentle voice, and he kissed her forehead.

"Hmm. You reek of alcohol. Remember to take a rest first after you return to your office."

"Yes, ma'am!" Sheffield winked at her playfully.

He wore that smirk that said he was up to no good. He was teasing her again! Evelyn pushed him into the back seat of Peterson's car. She didn't come back until the car was out of sight.

That evening, at Sheffield's apartment, Evelyn was sweating profusely. After doing what couples normally do, her hair was messy, and she was still trying to catch her breath. She looked at the man who was getting ready to take a shower. She called out, "Honey!"

He turned around and snickered, "I'm just going to grab a shower first. Wait a minute. I'll be back for another round with you."

Evelyn didn't know what to say. She didn't mean it like that at all.

"I have something to tell you."

Sheffield looked down at the sheen of sweat on his body and asked, "Is it that urgent? Can't it wait till I finish my shower?"

"Fine, get a shower first." She needed one too.

"How about..." Sheffield returned to the bed and held the woman in his arms. "Let's hop in the shower together, and then you can tell me. How does that sound?"

A tingle of pleasure passed through her heart. That sounded wonderful. He gathered her up to carry her into the bathroom with him. Evelyn wrapped her arms around him and nuzzled his neck.

He set her down gently and turned on the shower, feeling the warm spray hit him. As soon as he got the right temperature, he pulled her into his arms. "What did you want to talk about?"

how he tried. But Evelyn did it by saying a few words.

Peterson felt lucky that Evelyn was a reasonable and generous woman. It was not a bad thing that Sheffield listened to his wife.

"You're welcome, Uncle Peterson," Evelyn replied modestly.

"Don't be so formal with me. You're about to marry Sheffield, and we'll be family soon. Evelyn, don't worry. The Tang family will be good to you." Evelyn was his favorite daughter-in-law. She stood out from the rest. He would protect her no matter what.

"Thank you, Uncle Peterson."

"Well, then I'll let you go. I know you have lots to do."

"Okay, bye!"

The day they registered for marriage, Sheffield dressed formally in a dark suit, with the tie Evelyn got him.

In the car, as she was straightening his collar, she said, "If I'd known that you liked my gift so much, I would have given you a few more ties. That way you wouldn't need to wear the same tie all the time."

"Not just ties. You've got a great eye for fashion. From now on, Mrs. Tang, please take over my wardrobe, like ties, clothes, shoes and watches!" Sheffield grinned.

'Mrs. Tang...' Evelyn couldn't help smiling! "No problem. It's my honor to serve you, Mr. Tang."

Sheffield tried to kiss her. However, Evelyn stopped him by pressing a finger to his lips. "No. we're going to take a picture later when we register our marriage. Don't smudge my lipstick." Marriage was a once in a lifetime event. She wanted to make sure she looked amazing in the picture.
