Take My Breath Away

The woman looked familiar. So, Evelyn figured that she must be one of Sheffield's colleagues.

It was a cold night, yet the woman was only wearing a sapphire silk nightdress, and had delicate makeup on. She was knocking at the door of a single man in the middle of the night. Anybody who saw this would have thought that something was going on between the two.

The door opened and Evelyn heard Sheffield's voice. "Marcy? What's up?"

Marcy Wang lowered her head shyly and said in a low voice, "Dr. Tang, I have something to ask you. May I come in?"

"Sure. Come in!" He made way for her.

The door shut close after Marcy Wang entered the room.

The corridor was quiet. Evelyn went back to her bedroom with a stony face.

She changed into her slippers and drank some water as usual. Then, she opened her computer and checked her mailbox. There were so many unread emails.

She looked at the time. It was 10:46 p.m. Three minutes had passed since the woman, Marcy Wang, had entered Sheffield's room.

Evelyn was so nervous that she fidgeted in front of the computer. She clicked on an e-mail, but she couldn't read a word of it.

Ten minutes later, she stood up from her chair and walked towards the door.

Outside the room, Tayson was playing with his phone as he leaned against the wall not too far away.

When the door to Evelyn's room opened, he looked up and put away his phone immediately.

They looked at each other. Meeting his baffled eyes, Evelyn stammered. "I… I want to go out for a walk."

The door of the diagonally opposite room was still closed.

"Miss Huo, it's late now. Why don't we go tomorrow?"

Evelyn was about to counter when the door to Sheffield's room flew open. Before she could respond, the woman rushed out, with her head bowed.

She would have bumped into Evelyn, if the latter hadn't taken a step back quickly.

Wearing nothing but a bathrobe, Sheffield looked nonchalant. When he saw Evelyn, his eyes widened. He stared at her and then at Marcy Wang, who was run

ring and powerful; she had no room to refuse.

The room was silent for a few minutes, except their rapid breathing.

'Should I push him away?

Should I?'

While Evelyn was lost in various fantasies and conjectures, Sheffield suddenly let go of her. With deep affection in his amorous eyes, he said, "Evelina, I like you very much."

His body stiff, Sheffield turned around and left.

At the door, Tayson was about to call Debbie. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Sheffield come out so soon.

The night was quiet again. However, Evelyn was restless because of the passionate kiss.

On the eighth day after their arrival in D City, Sheffield took Evelyn for a walk around the lake.

The water was a light green. It was a beautiful place where one could see the water joining the sky at the far end, and the snow mountains towering in the distance.

The two of them rode bicycles around the lake. Sheffield had intended to ride the same bicycle with Evelyn, with her sitting in the back. However, Evelyn refused to ride with him.

Half an hour later, they stopped and decided to rest on a bench near the lake.

Sheffield unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to her. As she drank the water with her head up, he said in a low voice, "Evelina, my schedule has changed. I'll have to go back by tomorrow, at the latest."
