Sheffield studied abroad, and Darius footed the bill. After that, Darius pulled strings to get him a spot at First General Hospital.

"I think you're overreacting, Dad. He's just a playboy. He'll settle down after we're married with kids." Dollie had lived with two boyfriends before. None of them ever stopped going out and partying, but they weren't married, either.

Sidell thought for a bit. "Mmm...maybe. It's not bad that he's picky. A lot of men are picky when it comes to their women. He just dumped a ton of cash into his research and development operations. When I asked him about it, he claimed he found a sponsor. And he wouldn't tell me who. He also said he made some of that money racing cars. He's loaded, but he wouldn't be, if he didn't win races, not to mention that investor of his. Still, I don't like it."

"Come on, Dad. We know he raced against Fowler and won millions on a bet. He didn't lie to us. Don't worry about him." Sheffield had many girlfriends over the years, but not like Evelyn. She was special to him.

He told Dollie he had gotten close to Evelyn for a reason, but Dollie wasn't sure about that. Sometimes she had a feeling that the "reason" was that he was attracted to the young CEO.

She had to admit that Evelyn was pretty amazing. She was rich, beautiful, and was a CEO. Men had every reason to fall in love with her.

She decided she had to try and make Sheffield forget about Evelyn. She wanted him all to herself.

"He is applying for a patent for those drugs. You have to win his heart before that goes through!" Sidell told his daughter. Once Sheffield's patents were approved, it meant he was a genius with unlimited prospects and endless wealth.

"Will do, Father."

Two of Sheffield and Joshua's mutual friends were back in the country. Being old friends, they decided to meet for dinner and catch up.

In the biggest private booth of a restaurant, more than ten young people sat around an oval table. The reason for the large number of guests? All of them were with wives and girlfriends. All of them except Sheffield and Joshua, of course.

Their old friends began to make fun of them. "Mr. Tang and Mr. Fan have slept with way more chicks than we have. What's going on? Don't tell us you went stag? I really have to mark this day on the calendar!"

The wound on Sheffield's face had completely healed by now. He stuck out his tongue before replying casually, "My woman is busy making money. I'll bring her out some other time."

Joshua put down the wet tissue in his hand and joked, "Same here. My girlfriend's also busy every day."

Only the two of them knew the hidden meaning behind his words. Sheffield's eyes flashed angrily as he shouted, "Fuck off!"

Joshua smiled.

"You have girlfriends? Great, call them and get them here. How often do we all see each other like this?"

"Yes, yes!"

The whole room was in an uproar.

At the same time, Sheffield's phone buzzed loudly on the table. He looked at the caller ID and pressed the answer button. "Hello," he said.

"Hey. I'm outside your private room, and I saw you just now. May I come in?" Dollie asked. When she passed by this room earlier, the waiter came in and opened the door of the private room to serve some appetizers, so Dollie was able to see who was in there.

An old friend of Sheffield's shouted into the phone, "Is that Sheffield's girlfriend? Get in here! Quick!"

'Girlfriend?' Dollie was thrilled to hear the word. "Okay Sheffield, I'm coming in."

"Okay." Sheffield didn't turn her down since she was already there.

Soon she pushed open the door and came in. Looking at Sheffield waving at her, Joshua was astonished. He didn't know what was going on.

"Oh, she's so hot!"

"What I'd give for a body like that! Maestro Tang, aren't you going to introduce her?"

"This is my friend, Dollie," Sheffield introduced briefly, ignoring their cheers. Then he asked Joshua to scoot over, making room for Dollie, who was greeting the others.

Their friends went on like this for a while. Because of Sheffield's nonchalant attitude, they had to give up. They started grilling Joshua about his girlfriend. Finally, one said, "Mr. Fan, I heard that you and the eldest daughter of the Huo family are an item."

"The eldest daughter of the Huo family? The richest family in Y City? Mr. Fan, is this an arranged marriage or true love?"

Joshua and Sheffield exchanged looks. Then Joshua said, "That's total B.S. Where did you hear that? We are just acquaintances. We are not dating."

Few people knew about Evelyn's blind date with Joshua, and after they had been together, they kept it a secret. She had a reputation to uphold.

Evelyn Huo, the hottest female CEO, was very much in the public eye. Although these guys didn't know her, they all had something to say about her.

"You're not together? I saw her on the Internet once before. She is so hot..."

"Yeah, I saw the video too. She's incredibly gorgeous!" a man exclaimed. As soon as he said that, the woman sitting beside him gave him a pinch, which made everyone laugh.

Someone even made fun of him. "Seriously dude? With your wife right there?"

The man didn't care. He continued, "Let's make a video and post it online since everyone's here now. Isn't Sheffield a good singer? Sing something so I can get more followers!"

"Aren't you afraid if he gets popular his fans will ask you for his phone number all the time?"

"I don't care. I just need my own fans!"

At ZL Group

Evelyn was busy with her work. After reading a few chapters of a book on the sofa, Terilynn turned on her phone and opened an app to watch videos.

A few minutes later, Terilynn ran in, phone in hand. "Evelyn! Check it out! It's Sheffield and Joshua."

She was looking at a video that had more than six million likes. She pressed the replay button so Evelyn could watch it, too.

The background was a private room in a restaurant. Men and women sat around a table, all singing "Wish I Could Win Your Heart."

Evelyn didn't know the men that had sung the first few lines, but she knew Joshua. He sang, "You left. Our youth is behind us. Only people who loved someone deeply will cherish the memory of the past."

Sheffield was next. He wore a gray leisure suit with a white shirt underneath. His tie was crooked. He sang the refrain, "I just wish I could win your heart, and we would never be apart. But I never knew it takes such great courage to tell you that. I never thought of losing you. I was fooling myself when I said you'd come back to me soon. In the end, you became every note in my song."

He had excellent breath control, and sang so clearly, winning the hearts of many people. Plus, he was the most handsome man there, so people were moved to comment.
