Sharon thought that when the old master said ‘going back to your roots’, he wanted her to pay respects to her ancestors in a small ceremony.However, it was not as simple as that. Not only did she have to pay respects to her ancestors, but she also needed to host a banquet in a hotel where all of their friends and family would be in attendance when the family formally announced her identity.Inside the room of the hotel, the staff changed her into a custom-made gown and the makeup artist had already put on her makeup for her. She only needed to wait for the banquet to start now.Sharon looked unconcerned as she allowed them to dress her up.When Eugene came in, he saw her looking spiritless.He knew she did not want to tell the world that she was Sienna Newton, but they could not go against their grandpa’s wishes.“You’re here,” Sharon greeted him.Eugene nodded. After the staff was done changing her, they dismissed themselves.He stood behind her. “If you don’t want to go out,
She had not wanted to dress like this either. Now that she had become Sienna, she felt extremely stressed for some reason.She held Eugene’s arm as they walked in front of the old master and then, in front of everyone, she called out, “Grandpa.”Quinn’s wrinkly face finally did not look as sinister anymore. He was satisfied when he saw how she was dressed.“Come. Come to Grandpa.” Quinn reached out his hand to her.Sharon was hesitant, and Eugene said in her ear, “It’s fine. Go.”She was only slightly relieved because he was here. Eventually, she walked over and stood next to the old master.“Everyone, she’s my granddaughter, Sienna. She just came back from studying abroad in F Country. Now, she’s a pretty well-known perfumer. From now on, she will be starting her own perfume brand in Newton Corporation. Please take good care of her, everyone.”Sharon stole a glance at the astute and circumspect old master. When did she say she wanted to start a perfume brand in Newton Corporati
Franky did not care about his boss’ criticism. He hurriedly placed the newspaper in front of him. “President Zachary, look. It’s Miss Sharon!”Simon’s gaze narrowed as he looked at the newspaper, more specifically, the photo on the newspaper.It had been two years and when he finally saw her again, she was in the newspaper!His breathing became heavier as he grabbed the newspaper to put it in front of him so that he could get a closer look at the person in the photo.It was really her…She was wearing a custom-made gown in the photo and was adorned with shining jewelry, looking extravagant and gorgeous. Even if she was dripping in jewels, it did not hide the elegant aura that came from within her.When he looked at her in the photo, she looked foreign for some reason. She had changed and was not the same as before.Since he had never taken down the missing person notice for the past two years, he would receive a lot of messages from different people telling him that they had see
Kelly was ordered to watch the door and stop everyone from coming in.“Grandpa, do you really not want to see me?” Sharon stood at the door and yelled into the room.“Get lost!” The old master sounded angry.His voice sounded powerful and it seemed that the old master was fine. He was just grumpy that he had embarrassed himself during the banquet.“Tsk tsk, you’re really something else, Sienna. You infuriated Grandpa to this extent the moment you came back.” Jim’s tone sounded like he was basking in schadenfreude.Sharon peered at him and pulled the corners of her lips into a smile. She reminded him, “You also have a part in infuriating Grandpa too, Jim.”He should not forget that he had humiliated the old master once again when he said what he said during the banquet.Jim shook his hand. “No, this is your achievement, don’t put it on me.”Sharon was tired of talking to him. She looked at Eugene who was standing at one side. “Eugene, Grandpa doesn’t want to see anyone now so le
Sharon was pulled away by Eugene and he only stopped when they got to the door.He frowned and said with a serious face, “Sienna, don't talk to Grandpa like that again in the future.”There was still a fire of rage in Sharon's chest and when she thought about how the old man had asked her to come back just so she could bring profits to the company, she was unable to put out the fire.“I’m already being polite enough to talk to him like that.”“He’s our grandfather, after all…”“I’m treating him as my grandpa, but what does he think of me?” Sharon looked up at him. Her mood was unstable and her tone rose unconsciously.Eugene was speechless for a while. Actually, he was also feeling helpless about the old man's behavior.“Eugene, I don't think he has any affection for you. He’s just treating you as a money-making tool for the Newtons, right?”“Enough! Don't say things like that anymore!” Eugene suddenly roared with a cold expression.Sharon was stunned by his yelling but quickl
Eugene looked at her in confusion. “What are you thinking about? You look so engrossed.” Was she startled?Sharon’s breathing and heartbeat had quickened. She said angrily, “Are all the Newton family members ghosts?” After she said that, she walked toward the car, fuming.Eugene lifted his eyebrow and peered askance at her. Was she not a Newton herself?Eugene drove the car, bringing her away from the Newton household.He did not usually stay here and the rest had their own homes as well. The old master was the only one residing in the Newton household.Sharon had just come back so she would stay with Eugene for the time being.After some time, she started her own research lab and would find a new house for herself.Inside the car, Sharon kept thinking about what Austin had said just now. She looked at Eugene a few times, always stopping herself whenever she was close to speaking.“Just spit it out.” Eugene noticed that she had been looking over at him a few times. “I just wa
Penelope did not believe that Sienna was Sharon even if they looked completely similar.“She’s Miss Newton now and she’s Sienna Newton, not Sharon Jeans. It’s useless if you go look for her. If she wanted to come back to you, she wouldn’t have hidden from you and not given you any updates this entire time,” Penelope said coldly.This statement hurt Simon in the deepest part of his heart. Penelope was right. She was back, but she was treating him like air. She did not even send him a text, let alone give him an explanation for her change of heart.“I’ll find her no matter who she is.” The least he could do was ask her why she fled during the wedding.Penelope smirked. “Back then, she changed her mind without an explanation. It must be because she’s feeling guilty. She must be having an affair with Howard behind your back. Those lewd photos might be real. It’s not like she has never done that kind of thing before.”“Those photos are fake. I’ve looked into them. Don’t talk about this
“He’s at the door. Do you want to see him? I’ll take him to the parlor,” Glady said and was about to walk away.“Wait.” Sharon stopped her immediately.Glady turned back to look at Sharon. After staying silent for a few seconds, Sharon said, “I’ll go alone.”When Sharon took off her lab coat, her hands were still shaking. She thought she would be calmer when she met him again after so long.To be honest, she was unable to face him.She spotted Simon and looked at him from afar.He was standing at the door of the research lab. He was wearing a dark-colored shirt and black pants. His tall figure was standing straight and tall. His long eyebrows were slightly furrowed on his grave and noble face.He had one hand in his pants pocket as he waited quietly for her to appear. Even though some time had passed, she could still feel the same intense and stifling aura coming from the man.She could tell that he had gotten much thinner. She wanted to go over to help him smooth out the frown
