Take My Breath Away

Chapter 1045 Everyone Kicks Someone While Theyre Down

Hearing Evelyn's question, people who didn't believe Gillian began to curse her. "Gillian is so audacious. She tried to split up Mr. Tang and Miss Huo!"

"I'm pretty sure they're in love. Did you see his declaration of love to Miss Huo? He put it up on Theo Group's LED screen so everyone could see it. Why didn't he do it for Gillian? Probably because she's a liar!"

"Mr. Tang is so romantic. He even custom made a phone number that combined his and Miss Huo's birthdays. He is really my ideal type!"

The employees kept whispering to one another as they kept waiting for Sheffield to pick up the phone.

But he didn't answer.

At Carlos' prompting, Nadia called again. Still, no one picked up.

Everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief as the call was answered at the third time.

Sheffield's attractive voice echoed throughout the finance department. "Gillian Chi, I warned you not to mess with me anymore. Remember? This had better be important. I don't like to have my time wasted." His voice was full of obvious impatience.

Gillian's face was as red as a tomato. She was so embarrassed she wished she could vanish into thin air.

After a moment's silence, the voice on the other end became colder. "Don't call me again." "Beep, beep, beep—"

He hung up the phone.

Evelyn grinned. Sheffield had played his part well, though he had no idea what was going on here.

The voices whispering to each other became angrier. They didn't imagine Gillian could be such a bitch.

Without giving Gillian a chance to do anything, Evelyn pulled out her phone and made a call to Sheffield herself.

The phone rang again. It was the same ringtone. But the difference was that Sheffield picked up almost as it rang.

The gentle and surprised voice on the other end was totally different from the previous impatient one. "Eve, my sweetheart, miss me already?"

"Ahem!" Evelyn choked on her saliva and coughed.

Gillian was soon abandoned as a topic of discussion. Now all they wanted to talk about was how sweet Sheffield was to Evelyn.

Her cough was not loud, but Sheffield noticed it anyway. Immediately, he became nervous. "

ian's message, Evelyn made a phone call to someone else first.

Gillian was sure that Evelyn was devastated. That was why she texted her again. "You don't have to pretend to love Sheffield very much. He can't live without women around him. Two days ago, I saw him flirt with Kaylee again. I bet he never told you. Because I'm sure Sheffield has never thought about introducing you to the family."

Gillian wasn't done yet. She continued to text, "When I was with him, he said that he liked women that are cute and sweet, like a little princess. But you behave more like a bossy queen. You're terrible for each other. Even if you are together now, your relationship won't last long!"

After she hung up, Evelyn glanced at the constant stream of invective Gillian was sending to her inbox. She really wanted to block Gillian. Finally, she calmly texted back. "Thanks for the compliment. I'm no queen, just Evelyn Huo. But since you went there, think of it like this: I'll be a little princess when I'm with Sheffield, and without him, I'm the queen. Besides, if he really loves me, he will love me no matter what. He won't care if I'm a cute princess or a bossy queen! So what if he has a past? Everyone does. Want some advice? Do better. Don't bother replying to me. Goodbye!"

Staring at the message, Gillian clenched her teeth and angrily smashed her phone on the floor.

The loud noise startled everyone in that department.
