Take My Breath Away

Chapter 887 - Dollie's Choice


"It's Sheffield's kid," Dollie said with a smug smile while paying attention to what was happening behind her.

It was rare for Evelyn to smile around her. She approached Dollie in high heels. Dollie took a step back warily, covering her belly. "What do you want?" she asked.

"What do I want?" Despite Dollie's reluctance, Evelyn took another step forward and reached out her hand to touch her belly. "Why not share your good luck with me? That way he can get me pregnant too. Miss Xiang, if Sheffield knocks me up, who do you think he will marry: me or you?"

It never occurred to Dollie Evelyn would react like this. She had thought Evelyn would fly into a rage and dump Sheffield. "Sounds like you don't mind me having his baby," she said in a shrill voice. She glanced at Calvert and added, "Or are you two-timing Sheffield, Miss Huo?"

Calvert was on a phone call with his father, Langston, so he didn't pay much attention to what the two women were talking about.

Brushing off her words, Evelyn fired back, "Now that you're pregnant, you'd better stay home and not go out so much. You wouldn't want to miscarry. Think Sheffield will care if you lose the baby? I don't think so. Take care of yourself, Dollie. If it's a boy, you might be rich the rest of your life."

Evelyn's tone made Dollie very angry. Not only was she insinuating Dollie was a mistress, but also implied that the only reason Sheffield was around was the baby in her belly. This drove Dollie crazy.

Dollie balled her hands into fists, blazing with jealousy. Her face contorted. She'd known for a while how much Sheffield loved Evelyn. It was impossible for him to give up on Evelyn, so she was trying to trick the CEO into dumping him. "Miss Huo, you really don't mind Sheffield being a manslut? I find that hard to believe!" Dollie spat.

"Men always fool around before they get married, and they pick up a lot of mistresses along the way. After all, he has a pretty face. But has he ever picked just one girl? Or did he propose to another woman? So what about me? He's outed me as his girlfriend in public. And he proposed to me onstage. Even if you are pregnant, has he ever talked about marriage? I don't believe you can hold onto him, even carrying his child." Even though she wasn't sure exactly who Sheffield would marry, Evelyn didn't want to admit defeat this time.

Dollie glared angrily at the woman in front of her. Evelyn was right. Although there were many women hanging around Sheffield and he often had different girlfriends, he never talked about marrying anyone. 'He never said I was his woman. Only Evelyn! He's even told his friends in the racing industry that she is his woman!' Dollie thought bitterly.

Her jealousy spread like wildfire. Why did this woman have all the best things in the world? She had a pretty face, a perfect body, a rich father...And now, she had Sheffield!

All of a sudden, Dollie extended her arms and pushed Evelyn, who was wearing high heels. "Shame on you! You have everything! And now you're trying to steal my guy! I met him before you did. Don't you know, first come, first served?"

Evelyn staggered because of the push. Calvert had gone to pick up the phone, so he didn't see the commotion. But Tayson saw everything. He immediately got between her and Evelyn, and warned Dollie coldly, "Miss Xiang, behave yourself. Keep doing this, and find out where it gets you."

Dollie's eyes were blinded by jealousy, and she acted as if she hadn't heard Tayson's warning. She stared at Evelyn with unblinking eyes.

Evelyn straightened her clothes and said in a colder voice, "First come, first served? How crazy are you? Sheffield doesn't love you. A blind man could see that. But you're still lying to yourself. What good is that? Have some dignity!"

Evelyn was sure now that Dollie didn't have a baby with Sheffield. Dollie was doing this just to drive a wedge between her and Sheffield.

'Lying to myself?' How she wished she could rip Evelyn's face off! Dollie scolded, "You're unbelievable! Do you really think you're a princess? You're always so arrogant, like you're better than everyone else. Bah! You make me sick. You're just a jinx! All of your boyfriends are dead—"

"Dollie Xiang!" Sheffield's angry voice sounded behind them.

He quickly came over to Evelyn and stood with her. His face deadpan, he told Dollie, "Apologize to Evelyn! Now!"

"Why? Because I told the truth?" Pointing at the man still talking on the phone, Dollie continued, "The whole world knows that she'll be married to Mr. Ji. Yet she's still hanging out with you, and she always looks haughty and arrogant, crushing your dignity—"

"Dollie Xiang! Shut up!" Sheffield roared. "I'll say this one more time. Apologize to Evelyn."

"No way!" This time, she was stubborn as ever. She wouldn't surrender.

She wouldn't apologize. She didn't think he could force her to.

Instead of getting angry, Sheffield simply nodded and said, "Okay, fine. It doesn't matter, I guess. We're done. Go away!"

Startled, she shot back in a hurry, "Then I'll tell my dad that you bullied me. He'll demote you and you can say goodbye to your research and development work!"

Sheffield put his hands in his pockets and looked at Dollie scornfully. "What's wrong with you? You think it's Sidell Xiang who supported my research projects? Who told you he could do that?''

The fact that he addressed her father by his full name really shocked Dollie. He had never called Sidell by his name. She didn't know this guy anymore.

Her gut clenched when she saw his expression. "Sheffield, I... I'll apologize to Evelyn."

"Too little, too late! Get lost!" Sheffield snorted. He grabbed Evelyn's wrist and was about to escort her to his car.

But when they turned around, they saw a black Emperor parked nearby. The back window was half-open. There was a man inside.

When Evelyn saw the car, her heart skipped a beat. It was Carlos' car! She wrenched her hand free and told Sheffield in a low voice, "Go. He might not see you."

At the same time, Calvert caught up to them. He hadn't seen Carlos' car yet. Phone in hand, he came up to Evelyn and said softly, "Let me drive you home."

Evelyn wanted to turn him down, but she knew Carlos was watching her. She nodded and said, "Okay."

But before she could do anything, Sheffield grabbed her hand and said resignedly, "Baby, I'm not afraid of your dad. Really!"

'But I am. When he gets mad, he will do something really messed up!' Evelyn bit her lower lip and freed her hand. "I'll be okay. Just go!" When she saw Carlos, she was scared to death. If Carlos hurt him again...well, she didn't know what she'd do.
