Sharon glared at him in disbelief. Annoyed, she said, “What? Even you’ve become as unreasonable as Old Man Newton now?”How could something that her father had left her belong to the Newtons?It was simply ridiculous!“I told you before that there were words and a symbol carved into the jade pendant. Those words are the Newton family’s calligraphy script created by our ancestors, and the symbol is the Newton family’s crest. That jade pendant is a token of the Newton family. That year, Grandpa had given it to my father, but the token went missing later on, and at the same time, my little sister, Sienna Newton, went missing as well.”Hearing his words, Sharon’s face was aghast. She hesitated for a moment before smiling. “You’re not trying to tell me that I’m that missing little sister of yours, are you?”Eugene’s elegant face did not hold any of its usual warmth. Instead, he looked at her without a smile as he said, “Yes. You’re my little sister, Sienna Newton.”Seeing that he was
Sharon felt awkward. She knew that he was intentionally mocking her and he did not believe her words at all.She lowered her eyes, not wanting him to know that she had just met with Eugene Newton. She especially did not want him to find out about what Eugene had said about her being Sienna Newton.The moment she left the coffee shop, she had already made up her mind that regardless of whether Eugene’s words were true or false, she would not return to the Newton household.No matter the past or the future, she was just Sharon Jeans and not Sienna Newton.Simon’s thin lips quirked up slightly as he continued to gaze at her with an unreadable smile. She hastily hid the complicated feelings away in her heart as she reached her hand out to pinch the man’s sleeve. She deliberately flirted with him, saying, “Since you’ve already said that I’m your fiancée, then in the future, I’ll be the wife of this company’s boss. Am I not even allowed to grab a bite when I’m hungry? Are you willing to
“When did I agree to have a child with you?” Sharon asked, the corners of her eyes twitching. “Hmm? Who do you want to have a child with if not with me?” he asked. “You…” It was impossible to talk to him! A hint of a smile appeared in Simon’s gaze when he noticed her frustration. He changed the topic at once. “That means that Eugene is here to apologize to you. Letting him off after he just treated you to coffee is going too easy on him. He should book the most expensive banquet and apologize to you in front of me,” he said. Apologize to her in front of him? It seemed like he really wanted to see Eugene get humiliated in public. ...Sharon decided to meet up with Eugene when Simon and his bodyguards were not around. After that, they both headed to the Newton household to meet Eugene’s grandfather. It was better to resolve some issues as soon as possible. Sharon followed Eugene into the gate of the Newton household. In fact, Sharon had traumatic memories of this place
“If that’s the case, please tell me how exactly we’re abnormal and cold-blooded?” Quinn asked her sternly. He was trying his best to suppress the scorching infuriation blazing in his heart. Sharon raised the corners of her lips. “If you were normal, you wouldn’t have sent someone to kidnap me without telling me anything. If you weren’t cold-blooded, would you have hired a killer to murder me?” she asked. Her question made Quinn shut up. He stared at her coldly with a rigid expression on his face. The atmosphere in the living room instantly turned frigid. It was extremely suffocating. Eugene’s brows creased into a frown. He did not dare to utter a single word. He did not expect Sharon to say such bold words in front of his grandfather. Quinn Newton tightly gripped the armrest of the mahogany chair with a frail hand. He felt slightly out of breath. He had been alive for such a long time, but nobody had ever told him that he was abnormal and cold-blooded! After some time,
Eugene quietly withdrew his arm. "Never mind. From now on, let's not contact each other anymore." He had managed to endure all these years without hearing from Sharon or even meeting her at all. In the future, he would just act as if he had never found his younger sister at all—this was something he felt he could probably manage. Noticing Eugene’s dejected expression, Sharon could not help feeling upset. Even if he had not been her brother and was just an ordinary friend instead, she still felt some affection for him."I'm sorry, Eugene Newton," she said quietly. The only thing she could do was to apologize to him. "Go now. Just go…" Eugene averted his face. Sharon did not hesitate any further. She swore to the oath in front of Quinn Newton and prepared to leave. Glancing at Eugene one last time, she felt the urge to tell him something. However, she felt rather apprehensive and did not really know what to say at that moment. Sharon had been thrilled as soon as she fou
Simon gazed longingly at the woman lying before him on the sofa. His stare became gradually intense. "Why are you being like this tonight?" he asked in a low, mellifluous voice.Sharon raised her brows. "Don't you like it?" Her lips curled into a pout. "If you don't like it, we don't have to do anything," she added in a kittenish tone. She was just about to withdraw her arms when Simon held her head. Suddenly, his lips pressed down onto hers. He had moved so swiftly that Sharon did not prepare herself at all! “Mmmh…” This man was still as domineering as ever… She could not resist returning his deep kisses. Simon sensed that Sharon was acting differently from the way she usually behaves. He gradually pulled away from her lips and looked at her with a penetrating gaze. “Is there something on your mind, woman?” Sharon was breathless. She was immersed in the passionate kiss, but he suddenly bombarded her with such a question. The haze that clouded her mind slowly faded.
While everyone was talking about Simon and Sharon's wedding, Sally Luke, who was waiting for Fiona Lionel to finish taking her medicine in a psychiatric hospital located in the suburbs, was watching the television on the wall. An entertainment program was reporting the news about Simon and Sharon’s wedding on television. Sally glowered at the television as hatred arose within her heart. How despicable. Sharon was actually getting married to Simon! Simon had already divorced her. What did she do to seduce and convinced him to marry her again? Not only had Howard forcibly divorced her, but she had now become a wanted criminal as well. Sally could only stay hidden in a psychiatric hospital and look after Fiona Lionel, who was completely crazy. At the thought of this, an overpowering sense of hatred swelled within her, and it refused to be tamed. Hah, do you want to get married that desperately, Sharon Jeans? Do you want to get married into a wealthy family? As long
Riley assisted Sharon and Simon take down their measurements. Their wedding gowns and suits would all be tailor-made at her shop. As Sharon had said, all the goodies must be kept within the family. Riley would be their bridesmaid during the wedding. She had to customize a gown for herself as well. “Why isn’t my godson here yet?” Riley asked, looking at the time. It was already past schooling hours. She had to customize a suit for Sebastian as he would be the page boy during the wedding. “Mummy and daddy, I’m here.”Sebastian, who had already finished school for the day, pushed open the door and ran into the shop. Alfred had sent him over. “You mean boy. Have you forgot your godmother?” Riley asked, feigning a look of distaste. “Godmother, you’ve gotten more pretty!” Sebastian remarked. He was a smooth-talker just like his father. Riley loved Sebastian's compliments. She flashed out into a jolly smile immediately as she took hold of his face and kissed him on the ch
