True Love Waits
Chapter 922
Sheffield was indeed in dire need of money because of his research and development. Carlos knew this.
Even though he was being laughed at, Sheffield kept his temper. "It is true that I can't afford to buy this chair now, but I'm looking forward to the day I will be rich enough to buy the manufacturer of this chair," he said calmly.
"I'm looking forward to it too," Carlos snorted.
Silence befell the office again. Leaning against the windowsill, Evelyn watched Sheffield as he typed something on her laptop really fast.
Carlos frowned when he saw how fast Sheffield was. 'Could he be...?'
Three more minutes passed and Carlos stood up from the couch. "I don't have time to waste on you. If you can't unlock the door within the next two minutes, I'll open it myself. The security will escort you out of the building and our lives." 'Good riddance, ' Carlos thought to himself.
Sheffield didn't reply. His eyes were fixed on the codes that were continuously changing on the screen.
Carlos became even more curious as to what he was doing, so he paced towards the desk.
But before he could catch a glimpse of the screen, Sheffield pressed the Enter key and said, "Done!"
He memorized the six digits and closed the pop-up window. "Mr. Huo, don't blink," he said with a naughty grin.
Carlos remained expressionless and watched him walk to the password lock on the door. Sheffield mumbled as he tapped in the numbers, "5-8-9-7-3-2."
Beep! The high-tech smart lock was now deactivated.
All three people in the room had different looks on their faces. Sheffield had a devil-may-care smile; Evelyn was surprised and also excited. Carlos was on the verge of erupting as he fisted his palms. When the two men made eye contact, the smug look in Sheffield's eyes seemed to be saying, "Gotcha, Mr. Huo! I'm better than you thought I was, aren't I?"
Evelyn trotted over to Carlos and grabbed his sleeve nervously. "Dad, you cannot go back on your words now."
Carlos was already fuming with rage. And his daughter had been siding with Sheffield all this while, which made him even angrier.
Huo, may I have the honor of hanging out with your daughter today? Tomorrow is her birthday. I haven't had the time to buy a birthday gift for
