True Love Waits

Chapter 920

Reluctantly, Carlos told Evelyn, "The bidding was a blessing in disguise, though your computer was hacked last time. The game hasn't been released on the market yet, but it's caught some buzz. The Theo Group likes it very much. Plus, it's a big game developed by the game company under our ZL Group. It has a strong background. If people are smart, then they're definitely going to cooperate with us." 'Dad's just basically saying that we won the bidding, ' Evelyn thought to herself. After a short pause, she offered, "How about I handle everything that has to do with the game afterwards?" "Matthew will take the responsibility. I don't want you to get too tired."

"I'm not. Matthew should focus on school."

However, Carlos didn't agree. He stood up and began, "This is going to be complicated, you know. It's a long-term cooperation between two companies. You can deal with the regular stuff. Hey, aren't you having your birthday party tomorrow? Why don't you just prepare for that?"

"All right." Evelyn didn't push him. She knew her father well. If he didn't want her to take over, she would be unable to change his mind.

After Carlos left, Evelyn heaved a sigh of relief.

She placed an internal call. It was for Nadia.

"Miss Huo." Nadia soon came over.

Evelyn took the vase that held the Bulgarian roses that Sheffield had given her. The roses looked lovely as ever. In order to preserve the roses longer, she told Nadia, "Could you make them into dry flowers before sending them over to my apartment?"

"Yes, Miss Huo!" As Nadia took the vase, she made sure she was careful enough to not break it. She knew how important the flowers were to Evelyn.

Evelyn sat back in her chair and took out her phone. She was silent for a long time. Then she sent a text message to Sheffield, saying, "The man in my apartment that day was Napier Tao. I told you before that one of my best friends died young. She was his girlfriend." Evelyn decided to tell Sheffield through text as opposed to telling him face to face which would just embarrass her.

She had been thinking about it for several days. She had planned to tell Sheffield everything last night, but she was so tired last night that she immediately fell asleep. Maybe Sheffield was busy since he didn't reply to her message right away.
