"No, that can't be. I believe that he's still alive. You'll be proven wrong. If you don't believe me, let's make a bet." She lifted her head lightly and looked right into his eyes. He only met her gaze for a few seconds before he quickly turned away, his expression cold and impatient. "I'll take your silence as your agreement to my bet, then. If you want to win, you’d better actively cooperate with me and accept the treatment." She told herself that she would not lose. Henry closed his eyes once again and ignored her. He had no interest in betting against her at all. Seeing him behave like this, Sharon did not think that he was too difficult to get along with. He was just a little cold and arrogant, preferring to keep others at arm's length. …"Did Henry really agree to cooperate with you and accept treatment?" Tammy looked at Sharon in disbelief. "Yes, I've discussed it with him."Tammy was even more surprised. "How did you manage to sway him?" Even she himself had not
Tammy looked at the man in front of her with a sharp gaze. She needed him to give her proper answers. Franky lowered his head slightly, shifting his gaze to his feet. This made Tammy unable to guess what he was thinking. "Miss Tammy, the person she's looking for… is me," he finally said after a long time. "What? You?" Tammy was shocked. "Yes, it's exactly because I'm the person she's looking for that I had that wedding ring. It’s also why I know her very well," Franky said in an exceedingly calm manner.Tammy looked at him in surprise. Furrowing her brows, she said, "You're telling me that you're her lover and she lost you because of the explosion? That's why she's been looking for you?" "That's right," Franky admitted with a nod. Tammy went silent for a moment before she was able to digest everything. Everything seemed to make sense. "So that's how it is. It's no wonder you said that she'd follow me when she saw the wedding ring." She paused for a while before asking agai
"Henry, I have something urgent to handle. Can you please cooperate with Miss Newton?" If it were not something urgent, she would not leave just like this. Henry gave her a look before casting sidelong glances at Sharon. He said nothing and only lifted his head while closing his eyes. Judging from his expression, it did not seem to be a rejection."Miss Tammy, you should go ahead. I can handle things here," Sharon said. Tammy looked at her. Recalling Franky's assurance, she decided to trust Sharon’s ability. "I'll leave it to you, then." Saying this, Tammy leaned over and kissed Henry on the forehead. "Wait for me to return."Sharon was a little surprised at this. However, they were a couple, so the occasional affectionate gestures were normal. It looked like Mr. Henry only allowed Tammy to get close to him. Even so, was Henry not being a little too cold? He did not give Tammy a single reaction.Tammy was used to it, though. Finding nothing wrong with his behavior, she l
Her son's voice sounded from the phone. "Mommy, when will you be coming back? My school will be having a parent-teacher conference next week.""A parent-teacher conference?" Sharon seemed to have forgotten that Henry was still by her side as she continued chatting with her son. "Yes, will you be able to come back by then?" Her work had just started and because of that, she naturally had no way of returning to attend the parent-teacher conference. "Sorry, Mommy's not done with work yet. Why don't you get your uncle to attend the parent-teacher conference?"Sebastian was not the slightest bit surprised to have gotten a response like that. He sighed deeply, saying, "I already knew it was going to be like this. It was fine back then when Daddy wasn’t around, but now, even you can’t attend...”Sharon was about to open her mouth and reply that she was working hard to search for his daddy but then after a moment of thought, she recalled that Sebastian still had no clue about this mat
After she jotted down every single scent, she noticed that the few scents he had chosen overlapped with the formula for Appreshar.Appreshar was the fragrance her father had made for her and it meant a lot to her. Was this not too much of a coincidence that Henry liked the scent of Appreshar?She did not think too much about it and immediately had a discussion with Ceylon over the phone once more.The purpose of the fragrance she was blending was to aid sleep. As such, it would not be simply made with just flowers. The formula would also contain herbal ingredients. As such, the fragrance she blended did not just contain floral scents but also had medicinal properties. Otherwise, it would not be as effective. Sharon was the one who came up with the technique of imbuing medicinal plants into floral fragrances. This method was only developed after countless trials. It was specifically when Ceylon found out about this that he resigned as a university lecturer and went into resea
Sharon was surprised. She did not expect Young Master Chester to be so treacherous! “Let go of me!” she shouted out stonily. She struggled against his hold and tried to free herself from his vice-like grip. Nobody could stop Trevor when he was in a fit of rage. He lifted her onto his shoulder and walked inside with large strides. “Young Master Chester, Miss Newton is Miss Tammy’s esteemed guest. You can’t treat her rudely…” Jesse said, cold sweat beading his forehead as he chased after the man.“Scram! You aren’t needed here,” Trevor shouted out impatiently. His men did not bother to treat Jesse courteously anymore. They pushed him to the floor.Jesse was sprawled on the ground. He could not stop them. He had to notify Miss Tammy.No one else could stop Young Master Chester apart from Miss Tammy. Sharon did not expect to become Trevor’s target! Her protests and yells were useless. These rascals just continued to carry her away ruthlessly!Trevor brought her to the swim
“You’re crazy,” she scolded. She got up to leave, but she was trembling as she was completely drenched. Everyone here was on Trevor’s side, so she would not benefit from staying here. However, Trevor did not allow her to leave. He pulled her back and said, “You heartless woman. What did you say? Don’t you know that I saved your life?!” Sharon finally could not resist it anymore. She spat in his face and shouted, “You were the one who pushed me in! You brought this upon me!” Trevor narrowed his eyes that glittered with malice. “They all say that Republican women are soft and gentle, but it seems like that isn’t the truth at all! You have such a fiery temper. It seems like I need to teach you a lesson!” Sharon was shocked. What did this bastard intend to do? “Young Master Chester, I’m your sister’s guest. You’d better treat me courteously!” Sharon said. Although she was slightly panicked right now, infuriation still dominated her emotions. She thought that he would ton
It was Henry… There was nobody else beside him. He had come over in the wheelchair all by himself. Strangely, the icy air he gave off caused chills to creep down everyone’s spines.In their eyes, Henry was an immobile and handicapped person. However, he was causing them to be overcome with a stifling sense of pressure right at this moment. They were all undoubtedly frightened of him.For a second, Sharon thought that Henry’s terrifying stance resembled Simon’s.Nevertheless, she knew that this person was Henry. He was not Simon.Why did he come here alone? Why was he interfering in her matters?Everyone here was on Trevor's side. He could not suppress them even if he wanted to.Trevor stared at Henry and laughed in distaste. “Why did you come outside instead of staying inside, you useless piece of trash? I hope you don’t break any other part of your body. Tammy will be heartbroken,” he said before guffawing loudly.Everyone laughed along with him. Henry wheeled himself
