Chapter 56
When Sharon returned to thepany, she was called by the manager to the office, reprimanding
her for leaving her position without permission when she was still in the internship period and didn''t
ask for leave in advance. He chided her for treating thepany as the shopping mall where she
came and went as she pleased.
Sharon did not argue and epted it humbly.
Seeing her humble and sensible attitude, the manager asked her to go out and work hard after
reprimanding her.
Skye was very worried about her. "I was so shocked when I saw you run out with red eyes
yesterday. Are you okay?"
"I''m fine, but something happened to my family. I was so anxious at that time that I forgot to ask for
leave."
"Family is the most important thing in the world. The manager is soft-hearted despite his sharp
tongue. This matter will be over after he criticized you for the sake of formality."
"Okay."
In the president''s office on the 28th floor.
Anthony reported the schedule for the next few days. "There will be a meeting this afternoon, and
dinner at 7 pm. Tomorrow morning, we will set off for Grasmere to meet the head of the branch
office, and it will take us two hours to get there."
"You go and arrange a meeting. Who am I having dinner with tonight?"
"The deputy director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau."
"Cancel the dinner. I''m not in the mood."
Stanley sat on the office chair with no expression on his face.
Anthony thought to himself, "It seems that boss is still angry with Madam. She pissed him off
yesterday in the hospital and they didn''t talk at all on their way home."
"Yes."
Anthony nodded and canceled off several unimportant arrangements from the schedule.
Anthony turned around and was about to go out when he thought of something, and said, "Boss,
Madam was scolded by the manager of her department in the morning."
He assumed that Stanley would feel a little distressed when he heard this, but he didn''t expect to
see Stanley simply saying tly without even lifting his gaze, "Manager Lance did a great job in
managing his employees, well done."
Anthony stared at Stanley, speechless.
"Hmph, you say that because you are in a fit of anger," he thought.
After taking the folder, Anthony curled his lips and was about to go out when Stanley uttered, "Wait."
Anthony turned back and said, "Boss, is there anything else you want me to do?"
"We''ll leave for Grasmere after the afternoon meeting. There''s no need to wait until tomorrow
morning."
"Huh?"
"Didn''t you hear what I say?"
"Yes, I heard it."
Anthony thought, "D*mn, Boss can be so childish when he gets angry. He even runs away from
home."
Before getting off work, Sharon received a phone call from Hazel at home. "Madam, I didn''t prepare
dinner for you tonight. You can have dinner with Young Master outside." "What''s wrong, Hazel? Are
you not at home?" Hazel sighed. "A rtive''s child was sick and had to be hospitalized. His family
can''t take leave so I''ll take care of him for two days." "Okay. Take care of yourself too, Hazel." "I will,
Madam. Don''t worry."
After hanging up the phone, Sharon thought about whether she should inform Stanley, but after
holding her phone for a long time, she finally put down her mobile phone without making the call.
"Nah, I''m not going to call him," Sharon muttered.
After leaving the hospital yesterday and returning home, he ignored her for the whole night.
Eventually, he had spent the night in his study.
He didn''t even look at her when she got up early this morning...
As soon as Sharon thought of it, she felt very aggrieved. She did not do anything wrong and simply
told the truth but he was so petty that he ignored her. Humph!
When she got off work and went out of thepany, the phone in her bag suddenly rang.
She took it out and looked at it. It was a call from Liam.
Sharon was very grateful to him for keeping herpany at the hospital the other day in her most
desperate moment.
"Hello, Mr. Frazier."
She answered the phone.
Liam asked in a clear voice, "Are you off work?"
"Yes."
"Nice. I''ll wait for you at Bridgeway Lane. Come and find me. I''ll treat you to dinner."
"s..."
With a beeping sound, the phone had been hung up before she could say anything.
Sharon was speechless. Liam really did not give her a chance to refuse him.
On second thought, he helped her several times, and she really wanted to treat him to a meal to
thank him.
After pondering for a moment, Sharon decided to go to the appointment.
Thirty minutester, on Bridgeway Lane, Sharon took out her mobile phone and called Liam. "Hello,
Mr. Frazier, where are you?" "Turn around."
Turned around?
Was he behind her?
Sharon immediately turned around and was blinded by arge bouquet of red roses in an instant.
She pointed at the man holding the flowers, and her eyeballs almost fell out of her eye sockets. "Mr.
Frazier, this is..."
Liam raised the bouquet in his hand and said, "A beautiful bouquet for a beautiful girl. What''s
wrong?"
Sharon managed an awkwardugh. "We''re just having dinner, and I''m a little embarrassed to
ept this."
"Then I''ll help you to hold it first. You can bring it home after dinner."
With this, he pointed to the car next to him. "Let''s go. I''ve already booked a restaurant."
It was hard to refuse his kindness, so Sharon got in his car. Now it was the rush hour after work, so
there were many pedestrians on the road. Under their envious nces, Liam closed the Bentley
door and drove away.
At the same time, on the highway to Grasmere, Anthony was behind the wheels while Stanley was
sitting in the back seat. There was aptop on his knee, and he was handling the official business
with his head hung low.
Anthony thought for a moment and said, "Boss, do you want to call Madam?"
Stanley raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?"
"You''re going on a business trip in Grasmere for a few days. I think it''s better to let her know."
In addition to meeting with the head of the branch office, there were also a few contract negotiations
that Stanley nned to discuss in person, so they would have to stay in Grasmere for a longer
period of time.
Stanley raised his eyelids and said in a calm voice, "Do I need to remind you who pays your sry
and who you should listen to?"
Anthony immediately understood. "No, Boss. I''ll listen to you!"
He was cursing in his heart, "Boss, keep on your arrogant act. One day, you will regret it."
However, Stanley was not in the mood to work. With a bang, he closed theptop and reached out
his hand to massage his forehead.
At the thought of what the woman said in the hospitalst night, Stanley was furious. How dare she
said that he loved Jewel? How could she be so blind?
He didn''t want to see her these days, so he used the excuse of a business trip to keep a distance
from her.
In the French restaurant.
Sharon looked around curiously. The ambiance was excellent, and the decoration was low-key yet
luxurious. Even the waiters here were all French.
The exquisite dishes were served on the table one by one, and each and every dish was decorated
exclusively. The handsome waiter uttered "please help yourself" in French after serving the dishes,
to which Sharon immediately thanked him and looked a little awkward. It was her first timeing
to such a posh restaurant, and she was not used to it.
Liam, who was sitting opposite her, stared at her intensely, with a smile on his face and a well-
thought-out mind.

No woman could resist such temptation: Flowers, luxury cars, supreme service. Every bit of vanity
was infinitely satisfied under these circumstances, in particr, a young and naive girl like Sharon
who had not experienced such a thing in her life.
Eventually, she would fall into his trap that he set up on purpose after several attempts.
He was confident that he could make her fall in love with him in a short period of time, and she
would be inseparable from him in the end.
Liam got up gracefully and personally poured her red wine. "This is Lafite of 1982 that was
transported here in less than 24 hours. Try it."
"llh, I don''t know how to drink."
Last time, she drank too much beer in the bar and was taken advantage of. From then on, Sharon
swore that she would never drink again.
Liam smiled and said, "Are you afraid that I will take advantage of you?"
These words were so straightforward that Sharon blushed awkwardly. She took a sip of red wine out
of courtesy but she couldn''t taste the difference since she didn''t know much about wine. She would
prefer juice at any moment.
