True Love Waits

They were outside the restaurant now. The light was dim and it was late, so no one noticed them.

Evelyn's heart skipped a beat when she saw Calvert clutch Sheffield's collar. "Let go of him! Now!" she ordered.

With the same joker's smile on his face, Sheffield released Evelyn's hand and pulled her behind him. "Get back, honey. I'd really hate for your clothes to get ruined by their blood. They can't afford those sick threads."

Evelyn was rendered speechless. How could he crack jokes at a time like this? Calvert was no pushover. This wasn't a joking matter.

Calvert moved his hands up a little bit and fastened his grip around Sheffield's neck.

Evelyn shot an anxious look to her ace in the hole, Tayson, who was hiding in the dark. She gestured to him.

Without waiting for her to say anything, Tayson walked over to her slowly and said in a soft voice, "Miss Huo, please stand aside. I don't want you to get hurt."

Worry could be seen in Evelyn's eyes. "Separate those two, please. Don't let Calvert hurt Sheffield."

Taking a glance at the slovenly man being choked, Tayson had mixed feelings.

Before Tayson could take action, Calvert was tightening his grip, intending to take Sheffield to the ground. Sheffield felt his world go black. He moved his hand outside his guard, took two of his foe's fingers from around his throat, and twisted. Hard. Calvert, unprepared for the wrenching pain, stopped his attack.

Evelyn saw what was going on. She witnessed how Sheffield had turned the tables and taught Calvert a lesson.

All of a sudden, he lifted his right leg and kicked hard at Calvert's knee. Then he retreated a step further. Calvert was knocked to the ground before he was able to fight back, nursing a sprained knee with possibly broken fingers.

With that, Evelyn went quiet.

Maybe her man was not as weak as he looked.
