Simon did not expect his son to blurt out the truth. He frowned but did not blame the child, and his face remained composed.Initially, he had thought of telling Sharon about it himself.He met Sharon's gaze that was gleaming with suspicion and thought, 'It seems that she’s not buying it.'"Well, President Zachary, you're quite a scumbag, aren’t you? You're already engaged to another woman but you don’t plan on marrying her. Are you thinking of hurting another woman?"Riley was actually surprised as well. Who would have thought the man was actually not planning to get married?'Is he doing it for Sharon’s sake?'He's afraid that other men might deceive Sharon again, so he intentionally said those things.'"Mommy, Daddy only wants to marry you." The little kid grabbed his mother's hand and started acting as an ambassador for his father.At that moment, Sharon was having mixed feelings and suddenly could not find the right words to speak.Moreover, it was her son who had been ta
In the movie theatre, Sharon was carrying her son while Simon was sitting on the seat to her right.They had bought three tickets but the little kid insisted not to sit on his own and wanted to sit in her arms while hugging her.The giant screen displayed a love story that was rather pitiful. After watching for a few minutes, the little kid said it was boring and leaned in her arms before dozing off.Sharon wanted to smack his bottom. He was the one who insisted on watching a romance movie yet he called it boring.From the very beginning, she had already questioned why would a child bother watching a romance movie? However, Simon even gave in and bought him the tickets.'Great, we've already bought the tickets and this brat is sleeping in my arms. He’s too much for making us watch this awkward movie!’She noticed that the moviegoers surrounding them were all couples. They were the only ones who had brought a child along and looked like a family of three, but in truth, they were a
Sharon was stumped for words, yet she chased after him anyway. “Hey…”She arrived at this apartment once more, feeling momentarily dazed. After all, she never expected to step foot in here again after she left that day.She stood by the bedroom door, watching as Simon carefully placed their son on the bed and tucking him in.It seemed like he had adapted himself into the role of a father completely. Even though he was far from competent, the things he could give Sebastian were more than anything she ever could.The two stepped out of the room and went into the living room. It was still raining outside, and raindrops were hitting the glass window, making pattering sounds. Sharon lowered her eyes and said, “Then… I guess he’ll be sleeping here today. You can keep him for the night. I’ll be heading out now.”Simon had taken off his coat earlier, and he was wearing a black metallic shirt with hints of gray underneath. Two of his collar buttons were loosened, making him look casual a
Sebastian was suddenly running out of the bedroom to hug her. His voice sounded a little scared, like he was about to cry when he said, “Mommy… don’t abandon me and forget about me...”Sharon’s heart went limp, and she squatted down to say to her son, “What’s the matter with you, Sebastian? How could Mommy ever abandon you?”“I had a nightmare just now. In my dream, you said that you don’t want me anymore,” he said while sobbing.It turned out that he was merely scared by a nightmare. Hence, Sharon took the little guy into her arms and patted him on the back lightly. “It’s just a dream. It’s not real.”“Then, will you sleep with me tonight, Mommy? Please don’t leave me. I’m terrified that I won’t get to see you again,” the little guy took her hand over and pleaded pitifully.Crap. She was definitely trapped now. She was just about to refuse Simon’s invitation again, yet who would have thought that her son would be the one to hold her back?Facing her son’s plea, how could she bea
Then, who was the person who sent her this text?His eyes slightly sank as he noted down the number. Then, he sent it over to Franky for him to run the number.Afterward, he deleted the message for her. There was no need to keep this sort of spam anyway.Meanwhile, there was a car parked on the road not far from the apartment. It had been here since Sharon followed Simon into the apartment earlier.Inside the car, Howard was staring at the apartment’s door coldly. It was late at night and even the rain had stopped, yet Sharon had not come out of there after entering!Was she planning on spending the night? Was she planning to stay overnight in his uncle’s apartment?A man and a woman staying together in an enclosed space. Who would believe them if they were to say they did not do anything?It turned out she had refused to get back together with him because she was still involved with his uncle!Anger was rolling in his chest, so he had sent that text message in a towering rage.
Hearing Penelope’s words, it seemed like she had wholly regarded Sharon as a vile mistress who was trying to seduce a married man. She was willing to use violence to drive her away and was forbidding her from interacting with their family ever again.“Penelope, I did spend the night here, but I did it for Sebastian. I didn’t bother President Zachary, let alone sleep with him.” Sharon tried to suppress the shame in her heart. Even so, she still had to clear up the misunderstanding.As soon as her voice fell, she could immediately feel the man’s cold gaze washing over. She quickly turned her face away as if she did not notice it.However, the little guy ended up exposing her as he revealed, “Didn’t you sleep with Daddy last night, Mommy? Why aren’t you admitting it?”Sharon lowered her and glared at the stinking little brat. The three of them had all slept together the previous night, and his nonsensical words would only cause a misunderstanding!Sure enough, Penelope coldly stared
Simon’s complexion changed again and again, and something flashed across his eyes momentarily. His expression grew colder by the second, and it exuded a sense of unshakeable resoluteness. “Dad’s gone, Penelope. Let’s not keep bringing him up. I’ll bear all the consequences here on out.”“What!” Penelope was so enraged that she pointed toward Sharon and scoffed coldly, “Did this woman cast some sort of spell on you?” If that were the case, she would never let Sharon get away with this!Truth be told, Sharon was flabbergasted as well. When her son said that Simon had no plans to marry Summer, she refused to believe it herself. Even if he and Summer had no feelings for each other, a business marriage was not something to be trifled with. It was not something he could turn his back on, and was directly related to both family group’s future benefits.Now that Simon had revealed his decision in front of Penelope, it was hard for Penelope to stay calm.“Get out of my sight! If you come
Feeling that the man’s lips were about to press down onto hers, Sharon subconsciously raised her hand to cover her mouth. Hence, the man’s kiss landed on the palm of her hand instead.Simon’s pupils darkened slightly. He still proceeded to kiss her palm before sitting back up on his side. Then, he frowned and said in a little displeased tone, “So, you’re still rejecting me, huh?”There was a flicker in Sharon’s eyes. Her hand was still covering her lips. “You haven’t answered me yet.”The man stared at her without blinking. The depth of his expression would make one feel an inexplicable chill run down their spine.However, the next second later, he curled his lips into a smile. “Do you want me to repeat what I said in front of Penelope earlier? Or would you like me to personally say to you that I will not marry another woman?”What she truly wanted was for him to reveal his true intentions.“But you and Miss Gabriel are engaged. You can’t just go back on the agreed marriage, righ
