Chapter 999 He's Related To Miss Chi

Sitting in his seat, Sheffield fixed his eyes on the female CEO who shone like a goddess not far from him. He appreciated her skills. He didn't expect that Evelyn was so good at winning people's support.

People in the programming department were quite excited, but the employees of the finance department were quite envious of them.

Some of them were dissatisfied, saying that Evelyn was playing favorites. But someone who knew how hard the programmers worked said, "The programmers code day and night, their lives dedicated to their projects and the company. No one's saying we don't work hard, but they do it at the cost of their health."

Those who were still unconvinced didn't dare say anything more for fear of being scolded by others.

As everyone started to relax, a brave young man thought he was clever. "Miss Huo, are you single? I'd love to go out with you."

"Hahaha! In your dreams." Another employee laughed out loud.

"She is the eldest princess of our CEO. Don't even think about it. Go and earn tens of billions of dollars first, then you can ask again!"

"Tens of billions? You kidding me?"

"Hahaha..."

That end of the restaurant was loud with laughter and chatter.

Evelyn hadn't paid much attention to the people in the finance department. With a smile, she told everyone in the programming department, "I'm sorry. I already have a boyfriend. But I hope you guys find someone even hotter than me."

"Wow, she has a boyfriend? Who is he, Miss Huo? He must be something special to be with you. Those other idiots never had a chance," someone joked.

Evelyn asked Nadia to refill her glass with wine and apologized, "I'm sorry. It's not the right time yet. I'll tell you later. Thanks for asking, though. To a bright future!"

She raised her glass to propose a toast. They all knew that Evelyn couldn't stay long, so they all stood up with glasses of wine or juice in their hands. Under the starlight, the employees of the programming department raised their glasses and toasted the booming business of ZL Group.

The employees greeted Evelyn warmly as she walked from one side of the restaurant to the other. That was where the finance department's table was.

She nodded to everyone there with a smile. "Mr. Huo is on a business trip, so he couldn't be here. I c

eld had never had a drink together. She had an excuse tonight.

Just as Evelyn and Nadia were walking toward Sheffield, he suddenly stood up with his phone to his ear and walked to a quiet place. She didn't know if he really needed to take the call in private, or whether he was avoiding her.

Evelyn slowed down. While walking, she considered whether she should follow him. Three seconds later, she made up her mind. She shadowed him as he tried to slip away from the party.

She stood less than two meters away from him and listened to him while he talked on the phone. She guessed it was a woman on the other end, because he was speaking in gentle tones.

"Yeah. We'll get together after I finish my work."

On the other end of the line, Joshua, who had just picked up the phone, was confused. "Why did you call me? I don't remember asking if you wanted to hang out."

"Honey, be good. I'll be home soon."

"Oh, my God. What's wrong with you?" Joshua got goose bumps all over his body.

"Don't be afraid. I'll keep you company." With his back to Evelyn, Sheffield stared at the night. He felt nauseated inside when he talked like this to the guy on the other end.

"Fuck! Listen, Sheffield! I'm Joshua Fan, not Evelyn Huo! If you want a girl, then go find Evelyn. Quit bugging me."

"I know, I know. Don't be angry, honey. I'm headed home now, okay?"

"Will you cut that out? Don't come over, bro. You're a pervert. I'm afraid to go to sleep now because you might rape me. Sober up and call me later!" Joshua yelled.
