Chapter 59
"Have you investigated me?" Shawn narrowed his eyes and asked.
"I guessed some, and I also investigated some." Stanley smiled faintly. "At least I want to know if
the man I''m having dinner with now is a danger to me."
Shawn paused and then smiled. "Fair enough."
This kind of man with such stature could never be too careful.
"Are you leaving Grasmere tomorrow?" Shawn asked.
Stanley took a sip of red wine and said, "I''ll stay for two more days and leave after we finish our
business here. What about you?"
Shawn put down the wine ss in his hand and gracefully pursed his lips before saying, "I will go to
Beachmarsh City after dinner."
Stanley nodded. "Then let''s set a time to have dinner in Beachmarsh City. I''ll do my best as a host."
The two men talked happily and the atmosphere was harmonious.
When the steak was served on the table, the sharp knife cut the medium-rare steak into half,
spreading the smell of blood into the air. Stanley did not like to eat medium-rare steak as the smell
was too bloody and strong, but Shawn seemed to like it and enjoyed it very much.
"You don''t like it?" Shawn saw him put down the knife and raised his eyebrows with a smile. "It''s
hard to ept the smell of blood for a while, but when you get used to it, you will fall in love with it,
and you will enjoy the soft taste of steak with a little bit of bloody smell."
Stanley only drank withoutment. "Do you have something important to do on your trip to
Beachmarsh City this time?"
The knife creaked on the porcin te. Shawn chewed the bloody beef in his mouth and said with
a nod after swallowing it, "Yes, I do have something important to do."
"Oh, what is it?" Stanley raised his eyebrows.
Shawn''s lips were stained with red wine that looked rather eerie under the reflection of the light. His
nce slowly became deep. "Does it count as important to get back my lost treasure?"
"Treasure? Did someone steal it from you?"
"This treasure can walk and move and has feelings. I lost her a few years ago, and now I want to
get her back."
Stanley understood instantly what Shawn meant, so he joked, "It seems that she is someone you
love dearly and also someone extraordinary to make you remember her for so long. Tell her when
you find her. I''ll treat you to dinner."
With a smile on his face, Shawn clinked sses with him and spat out a word. "Okay."
After dinner, Stanley returned to the hotel while Shawn set off for Beachmarsh City.
It was 7 pm when they returned to the hotel, which was a little early.
Stanley had not eaten much at dinner but only a few sses of red wine. At this moment, he felt a
little dizzy when the alcohol kicked in, so he leaned against the wallzily.
Anthony opened the door for him. Stanley lifted his slender legs and entered the room.
As he walked in, Stanley pulled his tie and suddenly stopped.
Seeing that he suddenly stopped, Anthony was a little confused and asked, "Boss, what''s wrong?"
Stanley frowned and stared at the person on the bed. Anthony looked in the direction where Stanley
was looking and saw the person.
There was a half-naked woman sitting on the soft bed. She was plump and was irresistibly sexy.
Seeing theme in, the woman immediately got up to greet them, looking a little cautious. "Sir,
the water in the bathtub is full. You can take a hot bath first."
Anthony stepped forward with a fierce look in his eyes. "Who are you? How did you get in?"
Although he was just a small-time assistant, after all, he had seen a lot of things during his
employment under Stanley, so he looked very scary when his expression turned cold.
Shocked, the woman trembled and stuttered, "M-Mr. Gregory arranged for me toe in..."
Mr. Gregory was one of the people in charge of the branch office. It seemed that he sent this
woman here to please Stanley.
It was quite a normal practice for these managers to send women to their boss'' room.
Anthony was speechless. "Miss, you can go back now. We don''t need your service here."
The young woman was a little startled. The purpose of hering here was to serve man, and she
had trained for so many days just for tonight.

She hoped to hook up with a rich and powerful man. If the man liked her and fell in love with her,
her fate might change dramatically from now on.
No matter what, she couldn''t leave.
Her eyes turned red and she said pitifully, "Sir, what''s wrong with me?"
Anthony frowned. Why was this woman so ignorant?
When he was about to scold her, Stanley who had been quiet suddenly asked, "Do you want to
stay?"
Not only the woman but also Anthony was shocked. "Boss, you..."
The woman nodded excitedly. "I will serve you well."
"If that''s the case, then stay."
Stanley said tly.
The woman was overjoyed. "Okay."
In Beachmarsh City.
Sharon was busy at work today. Last night, she had a dream; she dreamed about the past and also
Shawn. She felt a throbbing pain in her head and she wasn''t feeling so well.
When she got off work, her colleague invited her for a night of entertainment, but since she was not
in the mood to enjoy herself, she declined her colleague''s invitation.
On her way back, she called Melody and they had a good chat. They hadn''t seen each other for a
few days, so they nned to go shopping someday to catch up.
It was 7:30 p.m when she returned to the vi. The house was as empty asst night, and there
was still no one at home.
Sharon rolled up her sleeves and nned to cook for herself.
Thirty minutester, she finished cooking her dinner. While eating, she called Hazel.
Hazel''s rtive was still in the hospital, and she would probably note back in the next two
days.
"You don''t have to worry about me. Just take care of yourself." Sharonforted Hazel. "I can
handle dinner myself."
Hazel agreed and seemed to think of something. "Where is the Young Master? I haven''t been at
home for the past two days. He must be unhappy, isn''t he?"
Stanley was a picky eater. He was not used to the food outside. Even if he sometimes ate outside,
he would go to the designated restaurants and chefs.
Humph, he didn''te backst night! Sharon pouted in dismay. She regarded the food as Stanley
as she chewed the food hard in her mouth and gnashed her teeth.
"Bite him!" Sharon cursed.
If Sharon said that Stanley hadn''te back for two days, Hazel, who had always hoped that they
would always be loving each other, would definitely be anxious.
So she didn''t mention it and just talked about other happy things with Hazel.
As they were chatting, suddenly there was a click, and everything went dark. Sharon eximed and
sat on the chair, as stiff as a stick. She was dumbstruck.
Hazel heard her scream and asked anxiously, "Madam, what''s wrong?"
Sharon swallowed and felt like crying. "H-Hazel, there''s a ckout!"
Hazel was stunned, and then she smiled. "It''s just a ckout. It''s not a big deal. Don''t be afraid.
There are candles and a shlight in the living room. I guess it''s the faulty wires; I''m sure the
electricity wille back soon."
"Okay."
Sharon could onlyfort herself.
After ending the call, she moved to the living room slowly. As expected, she found the shlight.
The downstairs was too big ar|d t°° dark. Sharon was a little frightened, so she immediately went
back to the bedroom on the second floor.
