As they made their way to the hospital, Simon held the woman tightly in his arms. The usually calm man was no longer calm at all. He held her hand tightly and kept talking to her lest she closed her eyes.Sharon felt exhausted and just wanted to get some sleep, but Simon kept talking in her ears. He would call out her name as soon as she wanted to close her eyes.'Why didn’t I find him so talkative before?'"Can't... you be quiet for a minute?" she managed to say.She did not know that at this moment, not only was her face drained of all color but also her lips. At this sight of her, Simon felt a burst of pain in his heart."No, look at me. Don't close your eyes!" Simon commanded bossily before urging the driver to drive faster.In a trance, Sharon squinted her eyes at him. Her head was resting on his shoulder, and up close, she could see the tension and fear in the man's eyes.'Is he afraid? Fear doesn't seem to apply to him.'However, she could feel his fear. 'Is he afraid th
“Oh, you're awake, Miss Jeans!" The doctor, who had been forced over by Simon to do a checkup on Sharon, was instantly delighted when he saw her opening her eyes.Simon quickly looked over when he heard the exclamation. Indeed, the lady lying on the hospital bed had opened her eyes. She had been unconscious for three days and three nights, and he had been staying by her side for three days and nights.As her unconscious state persisted, his patience began to slowly wear off, and he could not wait much longer. His mind started to develop stray thoughts. 'Is she going to stay unconscious forever?'The anxiety dwelling within him prompted him to call the doctor over once again to conduct a check-up on her.Now, she had suddenly woken up and that left him shocked instead. He stood there for some time, dumbfounded, and did not react.Sharon looked at the man who was not moving an inch. The moment she saw him, she was astonished. That man—the one who was always very strict with tidiness
Sharon stared at the fierce man before her. His face was tense and his brows were knitted into a frown. Even his lips were clenched into a thin line.However, she could obviously see the anxiety within the man's eyes, which was accompanied by a glimpse of terror…She recalled the scene where she got shot before she passed out. He had carried her to the hospital, and she also saw the horror within his eyes back then.A mighty man like him was always domineering and cool, and did not even flinch when he learned that Summer's bridegroom would be shot. However, that moment he was carrying her after she was shot, he had displayed fear.She understood that certain emotions were unable to be concealed. His sense of terror was so genuine. He was sincerely afraid that she would just die.Actually, she did not expect herself to have the courage to block that bullet. When the gun was pointed at him, she could not stop herself from running toward him.Only now that she was recalling the inci
At the end of the day, he never took her seriously.Simon frowned and his expression was dark. 'Isn’t she taking this too seriously?'He did not tell her because he thought that there was no need for her to know. As long as he could help Summer out with this matter, he would be able to return to being with her.He never expected that she would follow him."You think you can just go look for Eugene if you don't forgive me? My wedding is a fake one, but what about you and Eugene?" He was still rather concerned about that matter.Sharon did not even look at him. The issue between them had yet to be settled, yet he was talking about the issue with Eugene.The anger dwelling within her did not fade away. She avoided his gaze and said, "I…""President Zachary, what do you mean by that? Right now, Shar is my girlfriend and everyone is aware of it. How can it possibly be fake?"No one knew when Eugene had arrived. He immediately walked up to them and his gaze landed on Sharon, clearly
After Summer entered, she noticed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the room, especially the terrible expression on Simon's face.Eugene was looking rather normal. He leaned much closer to Sharon and they looked rather intimate.Summer glanced at the three of them and it was as though she understood something.She looked at Simon and said, "I see that Sharon has yet to eat anything after waking up. You should know what's her favorite. Go buy something for her to eat. She will be famished otherwise."Simon had already been planning to head out to buy something to eat. It was just that after Eugene showed up, he dropped the idea, not wanting to leave the two alone."I'll keep her company here. You should go." Summer could see through his thoughts.Simon glanced at Eugene coldly. Since Summer was there, he could rest more assured."Wait for my return." He got up and said to Summer. He still would not let Eugene be left alone there."Alright." Summer nodded.Sh
She could not help but sneak a few more looks at the two. 'So, right now, have they officially become a couple?' She had no idea what had become of the Gabriel family. Perhaps Summer had already possessed full authority over the Gabriel family.Summer got up and, seeing that Sharon was gazing at Joey with a critical gaze, her expression darkened. She said while feeling rather apologetic, "This time, Simon helped me to take over the authority of the Gabriel family. But… the Gabriel family won't allow us to be together."Currently, everyone was already aware of their issue, but the Gabriel family would never allow her to be together with a bodyguard.Joey could still be her bodyguard but he could not develop any ulterior intentions toward her.Initially, the Gabriel family wanted to chase him out of the house. However, he was not willing to leave and wanted to stay back to protect her.He even got down on his knees in front of the elders of the Gabriel family and swore that in his e
Sharon and Simon looked at each other, then shook their heads. There was nothing else that she wanted to ask.Actually, after Summer came over and told her those things, she was already aware of the problem that existed between them.She had only asked such a question all just to see how he would explain it.Just a simple phrase stating that he had never been in a relationship with Summer left her speechless. 'There is nothing else for me to question.'It was just that she was still not too pleased deep inside.After stuffing her belly, she felt tired and wanted to rest for a moment.She laid on the bed and saw Simon still sitting beside her. As she saw the beard around his lips and the vessels in his eyes, her heart melted."How am I supposed to sleep if you keep looking at me like that?" She blurted out in an intentionally ruthless tone."Obviously, you have to close your eyes to sleep," Simon answered matter-of-factly.After pursing her lips and silently sneaking a peek at
Penelope was reminding Sharon not to forget that she would not be easily let off the hook regarding Douglas's death.Shaken felt her heart tightening. She could not deny the fact that she still felt guilty deep in her heart about Douglas’ death.For a moment, she did not know what to say.At that moment, the door of the ward was pushed open and a man with a huge silhouette showed up.Simon came in, followed by Howard from behind.The moment he entered, he immediately noticed that the atmosphere was off. He also noticed that Sharon was awake. He saw Penelope and was thinking about what she had told Sharon."Penelope, I've already given the orders. The car is now waiting at the hospital entrance. You can start your journey back," said Simon.Penelope was going back today. There were lots of things to settle in the corporation. Simon had to stay back to keep Sharon accompanied and Penelope had no choice but to leave.Even though she was very against Simon staying back, she was slo
