True Love Waits

Chapter 831

Sheffield covertly winked at Joshua. The latter understood what he meant. He warmly gestured for Dollie to sit next to him. "Miss Xiang, please have a seat."

At first, Dollie was unhappy to see that Sheffield had sat down next to Evelyn. But as soon as his handsome and enthusiastic friend invited her to sit with him, she didn't mind that anymore. "Thank you," she said politely. She took her seat beside Joshua.

Evelyn didn't say anything. With a bright smile, the manager of the restaurant handed the menu to them and asked, "May I take your orders?"

Sheffield was quick to act. He took the menu from the manager and placed it in front of Evelyn. "Here you are. What would you like to eat?" he asked in a flattering tone.

Dollie and Joshua were equally surprised.

Noticing the anger on Dollie's face, Sheffield realized that he had completely ignored the girl in his excitement of running into Evelyn. He waved his hand and motioned Dollie to come closer to him. Sheffield leaned over to her and whispered, "Don't be angry, Dollie. It's just an act to get on her good side. If she thinks that I like her, my plan will have a greater chance to succeed."

Dollie gave the woman a dirty look. Evelyn was calmly flipping through the menu. Her face softened a little. She asked doubtfully, "Really?"

"Yes," Sheffield replied instantly with a nod.

"Okay."

Sheffield sighed in relief after getting that stumbling block out of the way. Resting his chin on his hand, he said to Evelyn, "It's my treat today. Would you like some goose liver paste?" Evelyn immediately scrunched her nose in disgust. "No? Then, how about oyster cup and some roasted chicken? Maybe a little soup with onions, and a French-style braised—"

Without raising her head, Evelyn scoffed, "I don't like anything you suggested."

Then, how about some cheese?"
