True Love Waits

Chapter 1057 The Proposal

"I don't care if Gwyn comes back to the Tang family. As long as she comes back to me, of course. And who cares if you acknowledge her as your granddaughter? Not me." Sheffield shrugged nonchalantly. 'What? Damn it! What is he doing?' Peterson closed his eyes and tried to hold back his anger. "How could I not claim her as a granddaughter? Bring the kid by someday and we'll have a proper visit."

"Yeah, maybe. By the way, I'm getting married. That means you can start working on the wedding presents. I think you should know who my girlfriend is. It's up to you to decide the bride price. But remember, we won't make it if you decide to stiff me."

Peterson felt his heart sink. He knew Sheffield's girlfriend was Carlos' daughter. The Huos were quite rich. One could imagine how much money the Tang family would be on the hook for. On May 21, Sheffield made another high-profile move. One the whole world would know about.

Around noon, Evelyn handed a stack of documents to Nadia. "Hand them out now. I won't be at the senior executives' meeting this afternoon. Remember to mention the year-end bonus."

"Yes, Miss Huo." Evelyn was planning to go back home and have lunch with her daughter. She did this whenever she wasn't busy.

She walked out of the elevator with her bag. All of a sudden, she felt something had excited the staff. Many employees were saying hello to her while rushing past her eagerly.

She heard them gossiping. "What's going on? Is it true?"

"Of course it's true. I saw it with my own eyes, so I ran upstairs to tell you guys! But I don't know who all this is for. Those decorations weren't there this morning, and now, all of a sudden, they're right outside." Staring at their retreating figures, Evelyn asked Felix, "Okay, I'll bite. What's going on?"

"You got me. I could ask someone." Felix was waiting by her office. He hadn't looked outside, so he didn't know what happened.

"Never mind. Let's go out and have a look ourselves."

As soon as they walked out of the building, the first thing Evelyn saw was a long red carpet. On both sides of the carpet were red roses in full bloom, which extended all the way to the square in front of the office building.

There were many blue roses in the square. Many pink-packaged chocolates were placed next to the blue roses, forming the shape of a heart.
