Fiona became anxious and thus took a few quick steps to catch up to Simon. "Simon, what's so important that you can't postpone till we have dinner?" However, she could only watch him leave the scene."Forget it. Let him be," Douglas spoke up. He had known it would be fruitless for them to take the initiative to introduce him to women.Fiona clenched her fists. 'I can't just let this matter slide. I have to pair Simon up with Rebecca and not let Sharon seize the opportunity.'Nevertheless, Simon indeed went to the company. However, there was nothing urgent for him to attend to; he simply did not want to be disturbed by others.At that moment, all the workers had left, and a hush had fallen on the entire company building.He sat on the swivel chair in the president's office as he lighted himself a cigarette. His mind was flooded with thoughts of Sharon and her son.All of a sudden, the phone that was placed on the office desk vibrated. It was from his assistant, Franky.He suddenl
"Why bother finding out?" Sally was not as anxious as before."I heard the conversation between you guys earlier. Aren't you afraid I'll expose you to Howard?""Oh? What did we say earlier? What are you going to tell Howard?" Sally put on an innocent look."The child in your womb doesn't belong to Howard. Instead, it belongs to that man!" Sharon had never thought Sally would betray Howard.An expression of unease flickered across Sally's eyes. Nevertheless, she soon recovered and smirked, "So what? Do you think that Howard will believe you, his ex-girlfriend who betrayed him, or me, his wife?"Sharon looked at her coldly. "Perhaps he won’t believe me, but once you've given birth to the child, I'll inform your mother-in-law about the child's identity. I believe she will conduct a DNA paternity test."The smile on Sally's mouth disappeared. Her stern gaze was fixed on Sharon as she said, "Sharon, why don’t you give up? Howard no longer loves you. You can't snatch him away as well!"
Howard glared at Sharon coldly when he looked at Sally who seemed to have been bullied by Sharon. "What have you done to Sally?"Sharon glanced at Howard, who was all over trying to protect Sally, coldly as she found it hilarious.To her surprise, the man who had once claimed that he would only love her was currently protecting another lady and was throwing his temper at her.She stared at Sally and asked, "I'm going to ask you one last time. Are you going to tell me who that man is?"A gleam of panic was seen in Sally's eyes. It was impossible for her to not be afraid of Sharon blurting gibberish in front of Howard."What man?" Howard asked curiously.Sally said anxiously, "Pay her no attention. She tried to threaten me earlier and even asked me to return you to her."Sharon let out a cold smile. 'Things have come to this point, and yet Sally is still lying to Howard.' Even Sharon felt sorry for Howard.Since Sally was not willing to cooperate, she had no means of being gentle
Douglas' old face darkened, "She passed my test. I think she has what it takes to be your secretary."Simon squinted his eyes. "I'm not looking for a secretary. If Director Zachary insists for her to work at the company, I'll let the personnel department place her in a suitable post.""No need for that. She will be better off being your secretary.""Director Zachary, are you trying to arrange a secretary or a lady for me?" Simon no longer wanted to beat around the bush.Douglas found it was hard for them to communicate like that and thus said bluntly, "Rebecca is a kid who I watched grow up into an adult. The girl is good. She is educated and is gentle, She’s suitable to be your wife and can help you out.""Dad, I don’t lack any women." Simon meant to say that he was not the slightest bit interested in the women around him.Douglas snorted. "Oh really? So you mean to say you already have a lady beside you? How come I'm not aware of it?"Simon’s eyes sparkled like diamonds, and h
She was astonished when she saw the tall and handsome man. "President Zachary? What brings you here?""Uncle is here to see whether your foot has recovered or not," Sebastian answered on Simon's behalf.Sharon had not expected him to be so concerned for her, and she quickly answered, "It’s no big deal. I’m well enough to head back to work tomorrow. You didn’t have to intentionally come over.""It’s not troublesome at all. After all, you got injured because of me," Simon said calmly."Shar, why don't you hurry up and invite President Zachary into the house?" Riley added.Only then did Sharon snap out of it and quickly make way. "President Zachary, please come in and have a seat."The man's long legs stretched out and stepped into the house. He did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed.Sharon invited him to have a seat in the hall before she poured him a cup of water and placed it in front of him.While Riley went to fetch Sebastian, she had bought dishes for that night’s dinne
Sharon placed the dishes on the dining table and then invited Simon over to have a seat.Sharon felt as if she was disrespecting him as she looked at the three simple dishes she had made. Needless to say, she was utterly embarrassed. "Well… there aren’t that many dishes. I hope you'll bear with it."Simon did not say a word and simply sat down at the side of the table.Sebastian, on the other hand, was satisfied. "Mommy, with such a huge plate of braised pork tonight, it’s more than enough."Simon looked at the little kid and stared at his skinny arms and legs. 'Could it be that they had such a tough life previously that the kid had no meat to eat?'"Help yourself to more of it then." Simon gave Sebastian a big piece of braised pork."Thank you, but I'll get it myself. You don't have to be so polite with me." After Sebastian was done speaking, he helped himself to another two pieces of meat as he placed them in his bowl. Sebastian would never be clueless when it came to eating.
His huge palm, separated by a thin layer of clothing material, was around her waist. Nevertheless, she felt as if the skin on that area was burning.The warm sensation spread all the way to her cheek, and her face felt very hot.'Oh God, what's happening to me?'Sharon was unaware of how she had made her way to the car. Franky was holding an umbrella next to the car door. Seeing the both of them walking toward him, he took the initiative and opened the vehicle’s door. He then waited for Simon to enter the car.Sharon felt annoyed. 'Franky would’ve surely brought a pair of umbrellas. I didn’t have to send him downstairs.'At the side of the car, Simon let go of Sharon and returned her the umbrella. Needless to say, Franky was holding another umbrella for him.Sharon lowered her eyes. "Well… have a safe trip back home.""Alright. You too, pay attention to your safety." The expression in the man's eyes was deep as he stared at her."Then, I shall head back for now." Sharon felt th
Ever since Sharon had bumped into her and Connor Leonard in the hospital, Sally could not help but feel insecure that the latter had found out her secret. Consequently, she assigned people to keep an eye on all of Sharon’s movements from the shadows.She had not expected Sharon to seduce Simon!After seeing the last few pictures, she suddenly became agitated. Her eyes were brewing with rage, and she nearly smashed her phone.The last few pictures were pictures of Howard and Sharon together!'It is so late at night and he's not home. It turns out he went to meet Sharon!'She stared at the pictures with immense hatred as anger could be seen swirling in her eyes. ‘Damn it! I can't let Sharon be so unscrupulous again. I should teach her a lesson!'…The very next day after the rain was sunny. The air was fresh.The injury on Sharon's foot was almost fully healed. Nevertheless, she went back to work that day.As usual, she would send her son to school before heading to the company
