Chapter 996 Evelyn's Visit

The man glanced at Evelyn and then turned his attention towards Felix again. "Are you sure you're referring to the same Sheffield Tang?" Felix exchanged silent glances with Evelyn and nodded.

"Yes, sir. Do you know Mr. Tang?"

"Do I? Of course! He slept with his sister-in-law when he was around fifteen. Who wouldn't know him?"

Almost immediately, Evelyn raised her head to cast a reproachful glare at the man, fuming over his comment.

Felix gestured at Evelyn with his eyes, telling her to calm down and then asked the man, "I'm sorry, I didn't get your name."

"Please forgive my ignorance. I am the fifth child of the Tang family, Sterling Tang. Sheffield is my younger brother." When Sterling's eyes met with Evelyn's, a strange feeling began to grow in his gut.

However, before Felix could say anything else, Evelyn's face darkened and she interjected, "How could you say something like that? Aren't you supposed to be looking out for your own brother? Why would you even be throwing mud at him? What kind of a brother are you?"

The tone of her voice made Sterling's heart tremble. Although it wasn't the first time he had seen this lioness of a woman, this was the first time they had been in such close proximity to one another. Their lack of acquaintanceship, however, wasn't due to Sterling's lack of trying to keep in touch with her. Quite the contrary, whenever he tried to approach Evelyn in the past, he'd be met with a bevy of bodyguards who'd follow her around at all times.

Sterling had never imagined that hidden underneath such a beautiful face was an imposing figure, no less than a queen. Evelyn was just standing there in a modest emerald green skirt suit, but her poise and physical grace were enough to render him breathless with excitement.

If he had remembered it correctly, Evelyn was just two years younger than him. Although she was just in her early thirties, she had a fiery charm that most women of her age did not possess. Sterling couldn't help but feel enamored with Evelyn, captivated by her stunning good looks and strong character.

If the past ten years of doing business had taught him anything, it was that ZL Group was of paramount importance to Y City's economy. Keeping that in mind, Sterling feigned a smile and said, "You're right. I am sorry to have upset you. However, I was just speaking the truth.

rds, finding himself in a very difficult position.

Evelyn knew what he was worried about and said, "Tell me how to open the doors. I'll go inside myself." Evelyn found Sheffield's office doors a bit strange because they didn't have a lock.

Tobias Shen explained, "There's a secret recognition system on the doors. To open them, you'll need to show the right palm print or face."

"Come with me," Evelyn told Tobias Shen. She had no intentions of leaving without seeing the person she had come for.

Evelyn stood there in front of the office doors, patiently waiting for Tobias Shen to open it. Feeling perplexed, the personal assistant wondered if he should do it or not.

Having lost her patience, Evelyn snapped angrily, "Call your boss now and tell him that if he doesn't open the doors, he will never see me again."

Just as the words had left her mouth, the doors opened automatically before Tobias Shen could even make the call.

"What's all the noise outside?" a lazy voice came from inside the room. "Tobias, what happened?"

"Mr. Tang, it's..."

"It's me!" Evelyn entered Sheffield's office.

When he saw her, Sheffield smiled and said, "Oh, Miss Huo, it's you." Then he looked at his watch and said, "Is there something important you'd like to talk to me about, Miss Huo?"

Sheffield's office was just as big as Carlos' and even though the decoration was simple, everything inside that room had tricks.

Sheffield stood up and walked towards her.

Suddenly, the office doors slammed shut, leaving only the two of them inside the large room.
