Evelyn gasped in his arms to calm herself down. "Sheffield..."
"I'm here."
"Don't ever... race again."
"Why not?" He looked at her in confusion.
"It's too scary..." Her legs were still soft and trembling.
Only God knew where she had gotten the courage from. She drove a racing car, all by herself, and finished four laps!
She had raced for so long because it acted as an outlet for her emotions. She put all that frustration into racing.
"Don't worry. I'm used to it already," replied Sheffield. He took off her helmet and kissed her on the forehead.
"Don't do it. Just focus on your research."
"Are you worried about me?" he asked with a grin.
Evelyn scoffed.
She pushed the man away and walked towards the changing room.
Sheffield followed her. "Evelyn, if you don't want me to, I won't race again. But you have to promise me that you will break up with Joshua and be my girlfriend."
"You can keep racing, Sheffield. I don't care."
He shook his head. "I won't race again. I won't—No, wait. Never racing again might be a little too hard for me, but I will come here less often hereafter."
"Whatever. I'm going to get changed."
"Okay, let's change together."
"Go away!"
When they entered the fitting room, Sheffield insisted on squeezing into her room. She rolled her eyes at the man and ordered, "Get out!"
"Come on! Let's do it together! I've seen you. And you've seen every part of m— Ow, ow, ow! Evelyn, I was just kidding. That hurts." She pulled his ear.
"That's right. Get out of here or I'll rip it off!" She tried to cover her embarrassment with her fierce attitude.
He nodded obediently. "I'll leave. Let go."
Evelyn let go of his ear and Sheffield fled to the dressing room next door. "I'm right here. Call me if you need anything."
Evelyn didn't answer. She looked at the wall with a smile on her face.
He stared at the wall too, grinning even wider as he imagined her changing her clothe
trothal gift to you? Will your father agree?" He looked at her with a soft smile.
Evelyn didn't answer his question. "You seem confident. Are you sure you will succeed?"
With passion burning in his eyes, he replied, "Of course, I will. I always do."
She was one of his goals. He had sworn to win her heart, no matter how, even if she was to get engaged to Joshua.
Evelyn didn't retort. "Well then, go for it."
Sheffield followed her out of the car and shouted to her as she walked towards the manor, "You haven't given me your phone number yet. What if I miss you?"
She stopped and raised her voice without looking back. "Why should I care?"
Sheffield howled, "Evelyn, don't do this to me. We drove together." He didn't want to remind her that they had already slept together. After all, since they had come back to Y City, he hadn't been able to get intimate with her, let alone sleep with her. It was quite frustrating and embarrassing for him.
So, he kept that out of their conversations.
Without his noticing, Evelyn smiled and answered, "When did I ever drive with you? I have no memory of such a thing."
"Hey! Did you forget that we drove bumper cars together?"
'Bumper cars?' Evelyn didn't respond this time. Looking at his broad smile, she felt like she was being hit on.
