He would lose his life soon if he had not slept in three days. Considering that he had rescued her previously, Sharon said, “Why don’t you let me see him? I’ll try to talk to him,” she suggested.Tammy looked at her with a heavy gaze. She rejected her suggestion straight away without even considering it. “No, he’ll be outraged if he sees you. Both of you cannot meet!” She had already told Henry that she made Sharon leave Chester Manor. If the woman appeared in front of him now, would that not show him that she had been lying to him about it?By then, Henry would surely throw a tantrum at her! Sharon shrugged and said, “Since nothing works, I’ll give you a perfume. It may be effective on him.” She turned around to take out a bottle of perfume from one of her small boxes. She remembered that the fragrance notes that Henry had chosen previously were similar to Appreshar’s formula. Therefore, she gave Tammy a bottle of Appreshar. “This is a perfume, so you don’t need to light it
Sharon walked in front of Tammy who did not say a word. However, she ultimately still reminded her with a heavy expression on her face, “Have a good talk with him later. Don’t trigger his emotions.”Sharon nodded and said, “I know what to do.” She was about to push the door and enter the room, but there was still something that she did not understand. She looked at Tammy and asked, “Why does Mr. Henry want to see me all of a sudden?”In her opinion, there was nothing wrong with this question. However, Tammy’s expression changed drastically.Tammy’s expression grew colder, and she seemed to be rather unhappy. The tone of her voice was unpleasant as well. “You can ask him yourself after you go in,” she said. Was she angry? Did she not know why Henry wanted to see her as well? Sharon pretended not to notice anything. She smiled at her and said, “In that case, I’m going in.” She turned around, but she could feel Tammy’s gaze on her back. She could not comprehend what Tammy a
She felt like Henry’s eyes looked even more like Simon’s now that she was standing so close to him. She almost lost herself in the dark orbs of his eyes.Neither of them said anything and they just stared at each other. An odd atmosphere encompassed them…She suddenly felt a strong arm circling her waist. The next moment, he had wrapped her into his arms and pushed her down to sit on his lap!Sharon’s heart lurched. She snapped back into reality and pushed him away reflexively.Nevertheless, his arm was as strong as a metal clamp. He held onto her with a vice-like grip. She could not push him away! She pushed against his chest. She did not expect Henry, who seemed thin and frail, to have such a sturdy chest. He was not as weak as he seemed! Their skin came into contact while she was struggling in his arms. His breath fanned over her ear, causing her cheeks to flare up in heat. Her heart started beating faster and faster.She had only ever felt this way with Simon. Why was she
“Don’t you want to get your hands on information about him?” Henry asked as he stared straight into her eyes with a heated gaze.“Of course, I want to. Otherwise, why am I spending so much effort trying to convince you to receive therapy?” Sharon said in a stern voice, “However, I can’t give myself to you in exchange for information about him. Besides, Tammy has agreed to give me the information after I develop the fragrance,” she added.“If I don’t allow her to tell you anything, do you think that she’ll listen to me or you?”“You!” Sharon shouted out harshly as she frowned. She was slightly angered. “Must you push me toward a dead end?”“You can choose the path that I’ve offered you.”Sharon had the urge to turn around and walk away. She wanted to ignore him, but she could not give up!She took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She tried her best to maintain an even tone as she said, “Alright, I can accompany you when you’re receiving therapy, but I can only keep you compa
She tried to withdraw her hand reflexively. However, when she raised her head, she noticed that his eyes were closed. Was he… asleep? He had not been able to sleep for three days, yet he managed to fall asleep in the blink of an eye while holding her hand? Was she really the cure to his insomnia? She did not believe that she was a charming person, but the current situation was proving her thoughts wrong… Sharon was speechless and feeling conflicted at the same time. Should she continue developing the fragrance that would act as a sleep aid? She did not dare to move as she was afraid that she would wake him up. She sat by his side and continued holding his hand. This went on for half an hour. She withdrew her hand from under his large palm after he fell into a deep slumber. Her palm was sweating. Luckily, Tammy had not come in at all during this period of time. Otherwise, Sharon would not be able to explain their actions to her if she had caught sight of what they w
Franky?He had disappeared along with Simon in the explosion back then. This was the reason why Sharon was sure that Simon was not dead. There had been so many people in the villa back then. Why had only both of them disappeared? If they had found Franky’s corpse back then, she may have given up on looking for Simon. She would not still have hopes that Simon was still alive. On a whim, she immediately rushed in the direction where the figure had disappeared to. She was not sure if it was Franky, and she did not have the time to think more about it as well. How was it possible for Franky to appear in Chester Manor? She only knew that if she managed to find Franky, she would be able to find Simon. “Wait…” she shouted as she ran over. The corridor twisted and turned. There were a few forks in the path ahead. She had no idea which direction that person had headed in. After chasing him for quite a distance, she did not catch sight of the figure anymore. She stopped an
Both of them paused once again. Jesse looked at both of them. “Do you know each other?” he asked them.Sharon looked straight at Summer. They had not met each other ever since Simon’s accident.To be accurate, she was Simon’s friend.“Yes, we can be considered old friends,” Summer said with a chuckle.She walked in front of Sharon and gave her a once-over. “Long time no see. Other than having gotten thinner, you haven’t changed much,” Summer said as she recalled the past. “Are you here to see Miss Tammy?” Sharon asked in confusion.Summer’s gaze flickered as she agreed with her. “Yes, I’m here to discuss something with her.” Sharon knew that she was in charge of managing the affairs in the Gabriel family, so she assumed that she was here to discuss business matters with Tammy.“What about you? Why are you at Chester Manor?” Summer asked her, a dark and meaningful glint flashing across her gaze.“Miss Tammy invited Miss Newton over to develop a fragrance that’ll help Mr. He
Henry pursed his lips without saying anything, and he refused to say anything for a long time. “Since you can’t let her go, why don’t you go back to her? Regarding Tammy… I’ll help you resolve this problem,” Summer said.She was the one who had sent him to Chester Manor. At the time, she had just sent him here to receive treatment. She never expected Tammy to have fallen for him.If he decided to reconcile with Sharon, he would have no choice but to reject Tammy’s feelings.She knew that he only had one woman in his heart all along. He would never fall for Tammy.However, things would be troublesome as Tammy was not someone who could be easily gotten rid of, especially now that she had her heart set on him.Henry lowered his eyes to conceal his overflowing emotions. After a while, he said in a low voice, “There’s no need for you to bother about this issue.”This meant that he did not intend to disclose his identity to Sharon.How could he disclose his identity to her when he was
