Chapter 824 You''re A Murderer


    "She is my woman and will be my wife sooner orter. It''s just a matter of time." Sheffield always got


    what he wanted. He wasn''t one to give up so easily, even if that meant getting hurt in the process.


    Joshua felt sorry for him. He realized that his friend had fallen deeply in love, and that he wouldn''t be


    able to convince him to let go.


    In fact, for a moment, he envied Sheffield. At least there was someone who could make him so


    engrossed and willing. But what about him? He couldn''t find a woman that he could lose his heart to.


    The two friends leaned against the race car and smoked, lost in their own thoughts.


    In the Huo Residence


    Only Evelyn and Terilynn were home in the eveningstely. But when Evelyn came home that day, her


    little sister wasn''t back yet.


    She turned to Tayson and said, "Go home and get some rest. I will not be heading to work tomorrow


    morning. We''ll be going to the Chestnut Mountain Cemetery."


    "Yes, Miss Huo."


    After Tayson left, Evelyn went straight to her bedroom. She was exhausted.


    Sitting on the chaise lounge, she stared out the window.


    The weather forecast said that it would be rainy the next day; so it was every year, on the day she


    visited the cemetery.


    At the Chestnut Mountain Cemetery


    Evelyn arrived at the graveyard, wearing a ck suit and a white shirt underneath it. There was a


    bunch of fresh purple rosemary on the gravestone.


    The picture on the tombstone was that of a young woman with a sweet smile.


    Evelyn looked at the rosemary in her hand and ced it right next to the bunch on top of the


    gravestone.


    "You are here," a cold voice said from behind.


    Evelyn didn''t turn around. She looked at the picture and answered, "Yes."


    "If she were still alive, a few days from today would have been her 30th birthday." The man''s voice was


    now colder and hoarse. "You hurt her so much when she was alive. You have no right to be here!" he


    added.


    Evelyn turned around and looked at the disheveled man sitting under the tree next to the gravestone,


    like a beggar. "You''re breaking her heart by living such a pitiful life."


    The man touched his unkempt beard andughed hysterically. "She didn''t love me at all! She wouldn''t


    care. She never cared how I lived my life."


    "Then, why are you here?"


    The man grabbed a de of grass from the ground and put it in his mouth. As he chewed on it, he


    looked at Evelyn viciously. "I had been with her since she was born, until she was twenty-seven years


    old. Every day, I have to see her. If I didn''t, I would feel like I was dying."


    Evelyn indifferently shifted her eyes away from him and waved to Tayson.


    Tayson walked over to the man and put a suitcase in front of him. "Mr. Tao, there is one million dors


    in this; enough tost for a whole year."


    The man roughly kicked the suitcase and said, "Bah! You give me so much money every year. You just


    want to sleep tight at night, don''t you, Evelyn Huo? But that won''t work. She will haunt you for the rest


    of your life and drag you into hell! Hahaha..."


    Evelyn''s eyes fell on the gravestone. "I''ve never wronged her. Why should I feel guilty?"


    The man roared and jumped to his feet. As he was about to pounce on Evelyn, Tayson stopped him.


    So, he spat, "Shut up! If it weren''t for you, she wouldn''t have died so young! You are a murderer!"


    Evelyn had be immune to all those words. She put on her sunsses, turned around and left the


    cemetery.


    "Damn you, Evelyn Huo! It''s you, who pushed her into the abyss. You''ll pay for this! Argh!" he


    screamed.


    Evelyn stopped and closed her eyes. "Tayson, let him go."


    Tayson pulled back his punch, pointed at the man''s nose and warned, "Watch your mouth."


    However, the man was still stubborn and mocked, "Bah! Why are you still working for her? Do you


    satisfy her when she is lonely at nights? Does her body make you— Arghh!" Tayson''s fist made contact


    with the man''s face.


    This time, Evelyn didn''t care and went straight back to her car.


    At ZL Group


    Evelyn kept herself busy at work.


    Nadia ced a file on her desk and said, "Miss Huo, this is our deal documents with the General


    Hospital. A new project hase up. But the vice general manger who was in charge of the deal


    resigned a few days ago. Who should be appointed to take his ce?"


    Without raising her head, Evelyn asked as she typed on herptop, "What new project?"


    "A new antibiotic was recently developed in our medicine factory. As thergest medicine supplier for


    the General Hospital, we haven''t discussed the price and the specific deal for this batch of medicine


    with them yet."


    ZL Group was involved in almost all industries that one could think of.


    "Leave it here. Make an appointment with the partner and give me the specifications of the previous


    deals and contracts."


    Nadia understood that Evelyn meant to take over the deal in person. "Yes, Miss Huo. I''m on it."


    It was not until Nadia had put all the contracts in front of her that Evelyn became aware that the


    General Hospital Nadia had been talking about was Y City First General Hospital.


    She was in a daze for several minutes as she read the documents, but her decision remained


    unchanged.


    She said to Nadia, who had been staring at her in confusion, "Set the meeting for tomorrow noon. You


    and the former vice general manager''s assistant will tag along with me."


    "Yes, Miss Huo."


    In ck Box Bar


    A woman stood outside a booth and said to a man in a pissed-off tone, "The author was telling the


    truth. You have tantly giarized her work. You have vited the author''s copyright. Do you


    understand? If you don''t, you cane to me anytime. I''m a student at the Law School of Y City


    University. I''m very busy today. Otherwise, I would have definitely taken the time to teach you what


    intellectual property right is!"


    As he passed by the angry woman, Joshua''s interest was piqued and he stared at her with a raised


    eyebrow. It was the first time he had ever seen a person use a bar as a negotiation venue.


    The ce was noisy, but the woman''s voice was loud enough for people to hear. The man she was


    yelling at felt embarrassed. He was angry and ashamed. "You are just a student who hasn''t even


    graduated yet. Mind your own business!"


    Terilynn wanted to punch him. "So what? I just won the first prize for the Talent Cup National Judgment


    N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.


    Paperwork Competition. You think I can''t tell an original from a giarized version? You have


    absolutely no respect for the author''s hard work. What are you still arguing about? You have infringed


    on someone else''s IPR! It''s a crime. If you don''t know what that means, you can google it!"


    "What do you know about it? How dare you im that I copied her work? All I did was put some


    screenshots of her book on my tform so that more people can see them. I was just doing some


    publicity for her. What crime did Imit? Didn''t she write the book for everyone to read? If you ask


    me, you are the fake one here!" The man''s words infuriated Terilynn.
