Chapter 34
At noon, when they were having lunch at thepany cafeteria, Skye, who built a good rtionship
with Sharon, took her to sit down together. Sharon was a neer, so she ate her lunch quietly
while listening to her coworkers gossiping about thepany.
When a group of women gathered together, they were either shopping to spare their time or
gossiping.
Sharon''s action of eating slowed down when someone mentioned Stanley.
"Hey, is our president serious to Jewel? Two days ago, there were rumors about them all over the
major TV channels, but none of them broadcasted their news now. Why is that?"
Janice Wagner felt a little regret since she had not seen enough of the gossip yet.
Lenny lowered his voice and replied, "Could it be that the president had used some means to
suppress the matter?"
"It''s very possible, but why? If the two of them are in love, there is no need to hide it, right? Just
admit it honestly."
"Maybe the president wasn''t serious with her.
As soon as the matter was exposed, the president was a little angry, so he suppressed this
matter..."
Janice started to daydream. "Since Jewel has missed her chance, maybe it''s my turn soon!"
"Ahem!"
Sharon choked.
Janice red at her. "What''s wrong? Are youughing at me?"
Sharon hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no. Janice, you''re young and beautiful; you sure
have the chance. It''s just that the president doesn''te to our department. You need him to be
near you in order to tackle him, don''t you agree?"
Janice thought for a moment and sighed. "That''s right. I''ve been in thepany for two years but I
only met him once. s."
Upon hearing this, Sharon was even more relieved. It seemed that she would not meet him at the
company at all.
When the lunch wasing to an end, somehow, the gossip circled back to Stanley''s first love.
Janice nudged Skye with her arm. "Hey, you have worked in thepany for the longest time
among us. Do you know why our president hasn''t been married yet? Does he hide a girl inside his
heart?"
Skye took a sip of tea, thought for a moment, and said, "When I first joined thepany, I heard
rumors that the president had a first love whom he was deeply in love with."
Janice''s eyes lit up when she heard that. "I knew that the president must have someone in his heart
for he is not married yet! Skye, tell me, who was the president''s first love who kept him thinking
about her for so long!"
Skye nced at her and said faintly, "I only heard about the rumors. It was said that the president
had a girlfriend before and they shared an awesome rtionship, but..."
Janice''s eyes widened. "But what?"
After a moment of silence, Skye said, "But... she passed away."
"Huh?"
Janice couldn''t believe it.
Sharon was also stunned. Her mind was nk and she was dumbstruck.
Was the dead girl Reba?
No wonder he got that look on his face when she asked him about his first love the other night. It
turned out that she had poked into his sad past.
Sharon felt a little regret for being insensitive the other day.
Skye shrugged. "It''s just rumors and hearsay. I don''t know if it''s true or not." "If it is true, then I bet
our president does not love Jewel!"
"Why?"
"How can a living personpare with a dead person? The dead must have left a deep mark in the
heart of the living. It can''t be erased for the rest of their lives. Jewel might just be a substitute."
Janice pursed her lips.
Skye lowered her voice and said seriously, "Well, don''t mention it again. We are employees. We
should not be gossiping about our president''s business. It will not do us good if someone overhears
us and report to him."
Janice stuck out her tongue. "Got it. My mouth is sealed. I won''t say anything."
Skye nodded, got up, and when she was about to go back to the office, she saw Sharon sitting
motionless on the chair, so she reached out and nudged her. "Hey, Sharon, why are you in a daze?"
Sharon immediately came to her senses and lowered her head to hide the emotions in her eyes.
She smiled and said, "Nothing, it''s too fascinating to listen to your gossip."
Skye smiled and said, "Let''s go back to work. I''ll take you out to get familiar with our business
operation in the afternoon."
"Okay. Thank you, Skye."
"We''re all colleagues. There''s no need to be so polite."
On the 28th floor of the president''s office.

Troy reported Sharon''s news one by one. "Mr. Jones, Miss Cruz gets along very well with her
colleagues and they had lunch together in the cafeteria at noon. I vaguely heard that she was
talking about you with her colleagues."
"Oh?" The slender man who was standing by the window raised his eyebrows, turned his head
sideways, showing his prominent facial features behind the shadow. "What did they say?"
"Uh, they were sitting quite far away so I can''t hearthem clearly."
Troy was a little embarrassed. "Next time I will sit closer and listen to what she and her colleagues
said."
Stanley waved his hand. "Don''t overdo it."
Sharon was very clever. Although she looked clumsy and careless on the outside, she was actually
very delicate and observant.
Troy nodded. "Yes, Mr. Jones."
"All right, you can leave now. Tell me everything about her in the future."
"Yes."
Troy turned around and walked out. Halfway through, he thought of something and turned back. "By
the way, Miss Cruz seems to have some doubts that you gave her some cks in getting the job."
The man nced at him with a pair of deep eyes. "What did you say?"
"I didn''t say anything, and I didn''t say that you looked into her resume personally. I only told her that
she was a talent and thepany appreciates a talent like her."
Stanley smiled. "If she asks you again next time, you can just find an excuse, as long as you don''t
let her know that I have anything to do with her joining thepany."
"Yes."
Troy nodded and turned to go out.
She was not that dull after all. She knew that he was suspicious. His mouth curved into a smile and
his admiration for her grew.
As for why he didn''t want to let her know that she got the job because of him, it was because
Sharon had high self-esteem despite looking careless on the surface.
She obviously wanted to ask him for a favor for the job application, but she didn''t say it in the end. It
was probably because of that d*mn self-esteem.
In the afternoon, Skye asked her to pack up and take her out. Before she went out of thepany,
Melody called and she answered immediately, "Melody, why do you call me now?"
Melody suddenly asked, "Do you have a headache?"
Sharon blurted, "What?"
"You drank so much yesterday. Don''t you feel headache today?"
"Of course, it hurts so bad! It feels like someone is tearing my head apart all morning..." Sharon
thought for a while and said, "Melody, do you have something to ask me?"
Of course, Melody had something to ask her. She had been holding it back for the whole night. She
called now and thought that she was still sleeping. Knowing that she had one ss too manyst
night, she wanted to let her rest for a little longer.
But she couldn''t help with her curiosity and ask, "What''s the rtionship between you and the man
who took you awayst night at the bar?"
As expected, it was because of this matter.
Sharon had already prepared for it. She pretended to be confused and said, "Who are you talking
about? I''m sorry. I ckoutst night. I don''t remember anything aboutst night at all."
"Come on, drop your act!"
Melody didn''t believe her at all.
Sharon didn''t know what to say.
Melody snorted. "I only care about you. Did you have a hard time getting drunk like thatst night?"
