Sharon stared at what was inside the box, unable to recover her senses for quite some time. Her mind had even gone blank for a moment, and her breathing became somewhat heavier.After a long time, she extended her trembling hand and picked up the wedding ring inside the box.This wedding ring was the matching pair with the one she picked up from the bombed villa. She had found the groom’s wedding ring then, and this one was the bride’s.This was the one Simon was supposed to put on her at their wedding, but after Howard’s little plot, he had worn this ring onto Xena’s finger instead.After Xena attempted suicide and was sent to jail, Sharon had gone over to have a look once but noticed that Xena was not wearing a wedding ring on her finger.Perhaps due to Xena’s repentance, she kindly informed Sharon that Simon had already signed a divorce agreement with her earlier on and that they were no longer husband and wife.Hence, he had taken the bride’s wedding ring away as well.Now t
On the huge lawn of the villa, two children were bathing the golden retriever. This golden retriever was a gift Eugene had given to Rue a year ago. As a parent, he was afraid that Rue would get too lonely when they were not at home. After all, he was very busy at work and Fern… This woman was always away from home for shooting. Since getting the company of this golden retriever, Rue had become a lot more cheerful than before. At this time, Sharon and Eugene were standing at the French windows, looking at the children as they bathed the dog on the lawn outside. “Why are you going to M Country all of a sudden?” Eugene handed her a glass of juice. Sharon took a sip before saying, “I have something very important to settle.” Eugene could not understand. What else was more important than making her perfumes? “How long do you need me to watch over your son?” In other words, he was trying to find out how long she planned to be there. “I… I’m not sure yet.” It was because she
Seeing that Sharon was getting a little agitated, Eugene’s mouth fell open. The words ‘Simon Zachary is already dead. Wake up!’ got stuck in his throat. He was afraid she could not withstand it if he said those words out loud. “Sienna, it’s not like you didn’t see the situation after the explosion that time. It could be said that in such a situation, it would’ve been difficult to escape. Otherwise, such a long time wouldn’t have passed without any news about him.” He still could not help but try to persuade her from another angle. After all, she was his only sister. He did not want her to take risks for Simon. Sharon understood that Eugene was doing this for her own good, but she really could not listen to any words of persuasion right now. “Brother, it’s been two years. I've waited for so long and finally received some news. No matter what the result is, I have to go there. Otherwise, I won’t be able to let go.” She was very determined. Without waiting for Eugene to speak
She raised her hand and vowed, “I'm not gloating. I told you long ago not to restrain her. It’ll only backfire on you.” “Shouldn’t you be going now?” Until now, he still refused to listen to Sharon. He wanted to just chase her away. “Forget it if you don't want to listen to me. Remember to take care of Sebastian for me.” She was going to leave. “If you don’t feel at ease, take care of him yourself.” Eugene snorted coldly. Sharon left a few final words to her son, telling him to take care of Rue when he was staying here. “Mommy, when have I ever bullied Rue? As for you, how long will you be away on business this time?” Sebastian asked. “It’ll be longer this time. I’ll call you, or we can video call.” She could not give him an exact time. Sebastian really thought she was going to develop a fragrance for a client. This would definitely take time, but there was nothing to worry about. “Okay, I’ll be waiting here for you to come back. Just rest assured and do your work.” He
When Sharon got out of the car, she saw the servants standing neatly in two rows. They were dressed in uniforms and respectfully welcomed them while being led by the butler. “Welcome home, Miss Tammy,” the butler said, and the servants behind him echoed the words. Tammy was already used to such scenes. It could be said that this was the rule of Chester Manor. She raised her chin slightly, displaying the proud attitude she was born with. She said to the butler, “Phil, this is the distinguished guest I’ve invited to our manor, Miss Newton. From today on, she will live in Chester Manor. Everyone must serve her well, understand?” How would the servants dare to disobey her orders? “Yes, Miss Tammy!” the servants replied in unison. “Miss Newton, this is Phil, the head butler of Chester Manor. If I’m not around and you can’t find Jesse, just look for him and he can solve anything for you,” Tammy said to Sharon. Sharon looked at the slightly short and chubby butler who seemed qui
Although Tammy had long been accustomed to this uncultured brother of hers who was always so rude and roguish, her guest was present today, so she could not let him be.“Trevor Chester, you brought some random women home to fool around again. Do you want to make a mess out of Chester Manor?” What she hated most was when he brought these wild women home.“The people I brought home will make a mess of Chester Manor but yours won’t? Tammy Chester, stop putting on such double standards!” Trevor retorted disdainfully. “You really can’t be helped. If you continue wasting time and fooling around like this, even if you’re the young master of Chester Manor, you’ll be kicked out of the family by Dad sooner or later!” Tammy always had problems with him but just could not be bothered about him. “Don't worry about me. You should worry about that disabled sweetheart of yours!” Trevor scoffed. “You!” His words struck a chord in Tammy’s heart. A piercing light appeared in her eyes, she raised
Tammy still did not let Sharon meet with Henry immediately.“You just arrived at Chester Manor, and the journey here must have been tiring. You should rest well first tonight. I’ll take you to see him tomorrow.”Although Sharon was a little anxious, she was in someone else’s home territory after all, so it was not up to her to call the shots.“Alright then.” After more than ten hours on a plane to arrive here, she was indeed tired.At night, Sharon enjoyed a relaxing bath. After drying her hair, she laid on the couch and picked up her notebook to search for information.Her instincts told her that Mr. Henry’s insomnia must be very serious. Previously, Jesse had revealed that counseling was of not much use for him, so it was clear that it would be very difficult to improve his insomnia. However, if her fragrance worked for him, it meant that he was not completely a lost cause.What she was concerned about now was that if her fragrance was useless to Mr. Henry, then she would not
“Uncle, aren’t you being too selfish?” Sebastian had not chatted with Mommy enough yet.Eugene hogged the tablet and would not let go. He raised an eyebrow and said, “Didn’t you say you wanted to play action figures with Rue? It’s getting late. If you don’t go now, then you should go to bed.”“Oh, right. Mommy, I’ll talk to you next time then.” As he spoke, Sebastian tugged on Rue’s arm and pulled her to the other side. “Rue, let’s go.”Rue obeyed him very well, completely admiring him like he was an amazing older brother and followed him obediently to play with action figures. Eugene glanced at them, then brought the tablet over to the window.“Eugene, what are you doing? Acting so mysteriously.” Why had she not noticed usually that he had so many things he wanted to talk about with her?Eugene saw the place that she was staying at through the video. It was so grand, and the furnishings were so luxurious, yet he was not the least bit envious. In fact, he was even more concerned
