Eugene sent Sharon over to the research lab and left. Unfortunately, the trouble that happened back at the mall had caused a bit of a stir, so he needed to head to the media companies of the respective reporters who had taken photos of the incident and try to control the situation.When Sharon came back, Ceylon noticed that her eyes were still a little red and swollen. He hesitatingly asked, “So the kid is yours?”He was naturally present during the perfume introductory event and saw the scene of the boy running onto the stage, calling her ‘Mommy’.Sharon looked at him upon hearing his question. She knew that he was only caring about her and not trying to gossip like the others.It was just that she was not in the mood to discuss this matter further.“No. He got the wrong person.”As her mentor, Ceylon could still somewhat read her thoughts. At the very least, he understood that she did not want to talk about it.“Ah, so he got it wrong. That just means you look a lot like the c
Xena was slightly startled. She had just arrived and he was already trying to chase her out. Naturally, there was a slight discomfort in her heart, but she still tried to behave sensibly.“Rest assured, I’m only here to take care of you and Sebastian. I know that you’ve been looking for Sharon this whole time, and I’ve also been hoping that she’ll come back as soon as possible. Plus, Sebastian needs his mother.”Simon narrowed his eyes at her for a few seconds and said coldly, “Since you’re on the same page… that’s good.”The father and son proceeded to sit down on the other end of the sofa and ignored her.Xena’s lips were still curled up into a smile, making her look innocent and harmless. She looked as if she was genuinely wholeheartedly thinking about what was best for them.It was just that anger arose when she lowered her eyes, and she secretly clenched her hands into tight fists. She had gotten fed up with Simon always ignoring her. How could she tolerate him chasing afte
At this moment, Glady’s body was blocking Sebastian, so Sharon could only see her when she came out. She had no idea who Glady was talking to.As Sharon was walking over, Glady just happened to turn around. That was when she noticed her son who had appeared out of nowhere again.She halted her footsteps and looked at the kid in shock. How did he find her here?Before Sharon could recover from her shock, Sebastian ran toward her and hugged her thigh. “You’re finally willing to see me, Mommy!”“Why…” She looked down at her son who was tightly hugging her thigh and felt somewhat confused. Could it be that Simon had sent him here?She wanted to pull him off, but the little guy was exerting all his force to hold her. It was as if he was afraid of her running away or leaving him again.Sharon helplessly covered her face and said, “Can you let go of me first?”“No, I will not. If I let go of you, you won’t want me anymore. Boo-hoo… I’m so pitiful. I didn’t have a daddy in the past; now
“Seems like? What do you mean?” The man’s expression sank.Xena immediately told him about Sebastian’s disappearance.“I’ve asked the security in the mall to keep an eye out for him too. We’re looking at the surveillance footage at the moment. I’ll surely find him…”Simon did not look too anxious at the moment. After ending the call, he opened a location application on his phone.He had specifically asked someone to customize a wristband for his son. It might look like an ordinary children’s watch, but it contained powerful functions—one of them was a GPS tracker that showed his whereabouts.There was a system that connected the wristband to the application installed in his phone, so he could check the little guy’s location anytime.At this moment, he could see the system indicating that his son was in Sharon’s perfume research institute.The kid had gotten so capable now that he even knew where to look for his mother!He immediately got into the car and told Franky to drive to
When Sharon saw Simon’s sudden appearance, her heart subconsciously skipped a beat.On this dark evening, the tall man was walking toward them. His innately powerful aura was making the people around him breathe somewhat cautiously.Sharon suddenly felt nervous upon being stared at by his bottomless, obsidian eyes.When Sebastian saw his daddy, his little face immediately bloomed into a smile as he said, “You’re right on time, Daddy. Mommy is taking me to eat ribs for dinner. Why don’t you come along?”Sharon could feel her breathing becoming hitched and she was about to refuse when Simon spoke first, “Sure. It’s my treat.”She turned her eyes to look at him, and right at that moment, he turned his gaze toward her as well. Their eyes met, and there was a spark of electricity. It was as if she had been electrocuted, so she quickly looked away from him.Sharon had spent all her efforts trying to leave him, but now it seemed like she had no other option but to keep in contact with h
Sharon could not help but ponder, ‘Wasn’t Franky Simon’s assistant? When did he switch to this young lady?’She did not overthink it and faintly replied, “Hello.” She had no intention of shaking hands with her.An awkward look of embarrassment flashed across Xena’s face as she silently retracted her hand. Then, when she saw that they were eating ribs, she turned her head to smile at Simon. She said, “I’ve been looking for Sebastian all day and haven’t eaten anything. Can you treat me to some ribs, President Zachary?”Simon glanced at her indifferently and then looked at Sharon who was talking to Ceylon. With a frown, he finally said to Xena in a deep tone, “Sit.”Xena showed an even brighter smile and immediately sat down next to him.Sharon noticed this entire scene from the corners of her eyes. It seemed like Xena was not merely his assistant.It was impossible for a mere assistant to speak to him in that tone.“Mommy, I’d like some meat. Can you take the meat off the bone for
Simon watched as the car Sharon and his son were in slowly drove away. He placed one of his hands into his trouser pocket, and the street lights shone on him. His facial features had become even more three-dimensional like a sculpture, while his dark eyes were akin to a bottomless pool.Xena was standing behind him, looking straight at the handsome man. She could not help but voice out her curiosity, “Why didn’t Miss Jeans leave with you, President Zachary?” Instead, he allowed Sebastian to go with her?Simon retracted his gaze, turned around, and walked toward the black Bentley parked on the side of the road. When he passed by her, he spat out a somewhat indifferent sentence to her, “Don’t ask about things that are none of your business.”Xena had to shut her mouth and merely look at the view of his upright back. There was a dark flash across her eyes.It seemed like Sharon was not willing to go with him!Once the car stopped at the Newton household, Sebastian looked out and coul
Sharon parted her lips but gave up trying to argue with him. There was not much point to it anyway.“Quick, put your clothes on. If you catch a cold, I won’t be held responsible for it.” She no longer tried to help him and made him dress himself.Sebastian was still smiling as he put his clothes on. Then, he continued, “It’s alright. Now that I have Mommy by my side, I’m not afraid that no one will take care of me if I get sick.”Sharon frowned at his words. “Did no one take care of you when you got sick? How about your daddy?”Sebastian pretended to be sorrowful and sighed. “Daddy’s been very busy at work, and he was looking for you all over the place. Plus, Aunt Penelope kept forcing him to go on blind dates too, so he didn’t have time for me.”“Blind dates?” Was Penelope arranging blind dates for Simon?Sebastian grabbed her hand and said, “That’s right, Mommy. Since you’re no longer by Daddy’s side, he’s being forced to marry another woman. Aunt Penelope arranged that lady fr
