“We did everything we were supposed to last night,” the man abruptly interrupted her and uttered such a shocking statement in a calm manner.Sharon felt her entire body tense up as she widened her eyes and stared at him in disbelief. “We… We…” She felt embarrassed and helpless at the same time. Did they really sleep together last night?Why did she have no memory of that, though? A shadow loomed over her as the man bent down and positioned himself on top of her. As he leaned forward, he seemed to be holding back an evil smile. He said, “Last night, you…” Sharon’s back bumped against the bed frame as she stared unblinkingly at the man’s handsome face that was magnified before her eyes. Her heart began racing again as she said, “I… What did I say?” She watched as the look in the man’s eyes turned unreadable. Using a long finger to tilt her chin upward, he said in a relaxed voice, “You said…” Then, as if something had exploded within her mind, Sharon’s face turned beet red. She
She did not ask him what the pill was for before swallowing it. There was a serene expression on his face as he watched her swallow the pill, as though what had happened last night was nothing more than an accident. They were adults now and were supposed to be able to face such matters calmly. However, she just did not feel comfortable about it. “Was there something wrong with the wine I drank last night?” she asked after swallowing the pill. She had not eaten anything last night and only had a few glasses of wine. “I got Franky to conduct an investigation. Both the alcohol and food served at the party had not been tampered with.” The anniversary celebration was an important event, which meant the quality of the food needed to be top-notch. After realizing she had been drugged last night, he immediately got Franky to conduct an investigation. It turned out only her glass of wine had been drugged. Sharon was startled when she heard that and immediately frowned, saying, “So tha
Sharon’s panic had not subsided when she saw him enter again, but she had to scramble to cover herself up. Flustered, she asked, “You… Why did you come back in again?” Simon tried his best to ignore her. His elegant brows were furrowed together as he asked, “Why are you bleeding?” Sharon had frantically grabbed a pillow and was quick enough to hide her body from his view. Her face was crimson red as she said, “I was just about to ask you that. What did you do to me last night?” Biting down on her lip, she asked, “Or was there something wrong with the morning-after pill you gave me just now?” “Who told you it’s a morning-after pill?” The man held his laughter back as he stared at her. “It’s not a morning-after pill? Then what did you give me?” She had a horrified expression on her face as if she was just poisoned. The man’s elegant eyebrows arched upward. “Xavier prescribed it. He said it would minimize the harm done to your body.” Dr. Fuller was here last night? He prescr
Simon looked back at the woman who was standing at the door and reluctant to enter. He said in a soft voice, “The old man said he doesn’t want to see you for the time being.”Sharon was confused. “When did I offend him?” Did this count as a covert way of driving her out of the Zachary household?The way Simon stared at her became slightly intenser. “Don't you remember?”She shook her head honestly.“Then do you remember dancing with me last night?” He tried to remind her of last night’s events.After taking a moment to remember, Sharon nodded.He continued, “Do you remember what you did to me before we finished the dance?”She tried her best to remember. She remembered somehow becoming his dancing partner and stepping on his feet several times while they were dancing. Then… This was where she became confused because she remembered the sound of people below the stage scolding her for being shameless.Her pupils shrank, and she suddenly remembered. She had kissed him in public!
Simon gave her a judging glare before saying, “Take a good rest, then. Call me if there’s anything. I’ll get someone to come over and make you some food later.”Sharon wanted to refuse, but when she thought about the state her body was in and how bad it would be for her if she did not eat, she ended up nodding instead. “Alright, I understand. Just go to work, don’t worry.”As she watched him walk to the door, she suddenly remembered that he had not answered her question. She asked loudly, “You haven't told me where you’re going to stay.”The man standing at the door turned his head to look at her with a thought-provoking look in his eyes. “I’ll tell you later.” After he said that, he opened the door and left.Sharon frowned. What kind of answer was that?Forget it, it did not matter. He could stay wherever he wanted. She was living under someone else’s roof right now, so what right did she have to take care of his affairs?She could not help thinking that since Douglas had taken
Simon peered at her, saying, “When you were sleeping, Xavier gave you an injection for your fever.”“Ah? Why do I have no idea about this?” Just how deeply asleep had she been? She had no idea that someone gave her an injection!The man seemed to not want to answer her. He merely placed the heat patch on her stomach.Sharon immediately felt the warmth on her stomach, and the pain reduced slightly. A hint of uneasiness flashed across her face, though. Why was a high and mighty president sticking on a heat patch for her? If people from the Zachary household knew about this, they might even want to murder her.“Um… I should do this myself.” She figured Dr. Fuller might have been the one who asked him to do this. When she was struggling to get up, the man said suddenly, “Don’t move.’At his words, she stopped moving. She looked at him in confusion and saw that he was staring at her stomach with furrowed eyebrows. Her cheeks grew hot as she wondered what was so interesting about her st
The next day after Simon went out to work at the usual time, Sharon was lying on the sofa in the living room in boredom. She felt much better today and had the energy to go back to work, but that domineering man forbade her to.She could only lay down at home and play on her phone. There was a sound that alerted her she had received a notification on her phone. It was a message from Polly, her colleague who was quite close to her.After Sharon clicked open the message, she saw the content that read: [Sharon, hurry up and look at the corporation’s internet forum!]The message seemed urgent, as though something big had happened.Sharon logged into the internet forum while feeling confused. The first thing she saw were photos that had been magnified, and they were placed in the most prominent spaces.She felt her heart shudder as she stared at the photos without blinking. They were photos of her and Howard during their wedding five years ago!It had been five years and she thought t
She wanted to look for Simon. He should be able to find out who was the anonymous user that posted the photos and article.When the door of the elevator was about to close, an arm suddenly stretched out to stop the door. She saw Howard appear at the next second.When their eyes met, her face became cold.Meanwhile, Howard looked frivolous. He walked into the elevator and pressed the close button.The door closed, and there were only the two of them in the elevator. He glanced at the floor number she had pressed and sneered, “What’s wrong? You’re running to my uncle to help you solve the problem?” He turned his head to look at her after saying this before continuing with mockery, “Why didn't you just tell those people you’re the president's wife? That way, you can tell them that you kissed him because you wanted to show your affection in public, not because you wanted to seduce him.”Howard had left the celebration early last night. He did not expect something so exciting to happen
