”Hurry up and leave. You have no right to tell me what to do.” Simon frowned unhappily.Xena was still smiling. “I’ll go now.”Upon leaving the house, the smile on her face immediately vanished. She spun around and glared at the door coldly.‘You may be chasing me out now, but one day, you’ll never be able to leave my side!’“Let’s tuck in.” Simon went over and held Sharon’s waist. His expression was totally different from earlier, and his eyes were gently glimmering.Sharon folded her arms and glanced at him with a vague smile. She raised her brows, saying in an unpleasant tone, “Why didn’t you ask your assistant to stay back for a meal? She’s so concerned about you.”His eyes became darker as he glanced at Sharon, and he corrected her seriously, “She’s just a small fry assistant who my sister got to help me handle trivial issues. She’s not a personal assistant of mine.”Sharon smiled when she heard it. “Trivial issues? If she hears this, she’ll be very sad.”“I’m just stating
Sharon tilted her head and looked at Simon in front of her. ‘Why is he acting more and more like a kid? He’ll either be messing around or seeking attention.’Even if it’s a simple task like getting the medications, he also needed Sharon to do it for him.She recalled what Xena said about him not being able to sleep and eat properly for the past two years as he had been busy looking for her, causing him to have problems with his stomach. She was somehow heartbroken as well.“Alright, wait over here. I’ll go get you some water and the medications.” She really owed it to him.Simon curled his thin lips and waited for her to return with the things.Soon, Sharon brought the medications and glass of water to him. “Come, hurry and take them. Or else, I’ll be the one held responsible if you have any problems later on.”“Mrs. Zachary, I don’t like this statement of yours. My body is weak because of you, yet you’re trying to deny your responsibility?” Simon was not satisfied.“When did I
”Not good.” Simon immediately denied his son’s idea.“Why not? You can live here and stay with Mommy so why can’t I transfer schools?” Sebastian glared at his father and said, exasperated.“It’s only logical for me to stay with my wife. In the future, you can also stay with your wife,” said Simon matter-of-factly.“But, she’s my mommy!”“You’re already seven years old, so you should be learning to be independent. You can’t always rely on your mother.” Simon had repeated that statement many times, yet the little kid still wanted to be with his woman.Sebastian let go of his hand, lifted his head, and looked at his mother. “You won’t allow me to transfer schools as well?”Sharon thought about it and said, “It’s not that I won’t allow it but I think your school right now is quite good…”“Hmph, I knew it! You guys just think of me as a burden. You guys just want to live in your own world!” Sebastian interrupted Sharon angrily before she could even speak.“I've been independent sinc
That day, Sharon invited Fern to meet up with her at a coffee shop.She was the first to arrive at the agreed destination. She ordered a cup of coffee and waited for Fern.“I’m sorry, there was some traffic on the road so I’m a little late.” After ten minutes, Fern rushed into the shop.“No worries. What would you like to drink?” Sharon was not in a hurry as she had nothing to do today.“Just a cup of latte will do, thanks,” Fern said to the waiter.After the waiter left, Sharon got straight to the point. “I invited you out today because I want to ask you about the incident with Director Zimmermann.”“That time… It was my mistake. I entered the wrong room.” The main thing was that she got the room number wrong. She got confused between rooms 306 and 309.“I’m really sorry. It wasn’t my intention to not show up after promising to meet him. He’s not angry right?” Fern was blaming herself.Sharon sighed. “Of course, he’s angry. I could only apologize to him. Thank God he’s quite a
Sharon had tried lots of formulations but was still unable to crack her adopted father’s formula for Appreshar.She had been depressed about it for the past few days. ‘What ingredients did my adopted father use? Why is the fragrance so special? Besides, the fragrance remains for such a long time.’She wanted to head back to the Newton household to have a look there. Perhaps she could find some hints in her mother’s bedroom. After all, she managed to find Appreshar in her mother’s room.It was coincidentally noon when she returned to the Newton household. Old Master Newton was taking his rest, so she did not disturb him.In fact, she was not so keen to meet with the old man anyway.As she was the young lady of the Newton family, she was free to enter and leave the house. No one would stop her.She walked straight into the courtyard and headed to Malvales Garden where her parents used to live.On the little cobblestone path, there was suddenly something white next to the flowers o
It was broad daylight, yet Sharon still felt spooked out while feeling chills crawling down her spine.Perhaps this was a bungalow that was abandoned by the Newton family a long time ago. ‘There’s nothing to be afraid of. I should hurry and look for that stupid dog. Getting back my documents is of top priority.’“Stupid dog, come out this instant!” she shouted as she walked further down the road.Suddenly a white shadow passed by and the Pomeranian appeared in front of her. The folder her documents were in was inside the dog’s mouth.“So you’re here. Be a good dog and give me back my folder. Later, I’ll give you some meat to munch on.” She slowly approached the dog.She got closer and closer, and suddenly, she pounced over to catch the dog!The dog was very alert, and in the blink of an eye, it escaped in front of her and made its way to another side.In just a brief moment, the Pomeranian immediately ran into the little bungalow. Subconsciously, she went along and followed the
’What did she mean by her Sienna?’“Sienna, you’re my precious daughter. Sienna… Mommy missed you. You’ve already grown up…” said the woman while choking. Tears were seen flowing down her cheeks and her hands were still touching Sharon’s face. She was evidently heartbroken.Sharon felt her heart thumping hard. ‘This woman... What is she talking about?’She stared at the woman, and after a brief moment, she suddenly snapped out of it. Her vision was a little blurry and she nearly could not make out the woman’s appearance.She held her breath and fixed her eyes on the pale and scrawny face in front of her. ‘This woman... is my biological mother?’In her mind, she was comparing this face to the face in her parents’ wedding photo. The face in front of her was naturally unable to be an exact match to the face in the wedding photo, but there were still some undeniable similarities on this woman’s face.She pushed the woman away instinctively. She could not believe it. She stared at the
”Sienna!” Eugene saw that Sharon was about to pass out and quickly supported her.“Sienna, What’s… What’s wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?” Autumn was very anxious and came over to look at her daughter, heartbroken.Sharon nearly fainted and her consciousness was slightly hazy, but when she saw her brother’s and mother’s faces appearing before her, she immediately snapped out of it and became alert.“Are… Are you my mother?” She still could not believe that her biological mother would appear in front of her.“My dear daughter, can you finally forgive me? Are you willing to acknowledge me?” At that moment, Autumn’s eyes looked vibrant as she gazed at Sharon with anticipation.Mixed emotions were dwelling in Sharon’s chest. It seemed like she was muttering to herself, “Are you really my mother… but they said you went crazy…”Perhaps it was her comment that agitated Autumn. The woman who had appeared normal suddenly tensed her facial features, yelling, “Who said that I’m craz
