    Chapter 79


    Jimmy took a sip of wine and quickly waved his hand. "It''s not a big deal. Don''t worry about it."


    Sharon insisted. "Well, it is a big deal for me. Without you, Mr. Hudson, Melody and I may still be


    locked up."


    She was indeed a stubborn girl of principles.


    Jimmy smiled and said, "It''s OK if you want to return the favor, but you don''t have to return the


    money. You can treat me to a meal."


    "That''s not good." Sharon frowned. How much was a meal worth anyway?


    "That''s the deal. Let''s take a rain check on the meal."


    Jimmy stated the deal right there and then which made Sharon chuckle helplessly.


    As the two of them talked andughed, the expression of Stanley, who was being ignored, turned


    gloomier as he red at them as if he would eat them up with his eyes.


    Jackson was amused as he looked at Stanley''s reaction. Was this what he meant by he didn''t like


    her? If he didn''t like her, how would he react like this?


    He might already like her but he didn''t know it at all.


    "Ahem." Jackson cleared his throat and interrupted Sharon and Jimmy on the opposite sofa. If he


    didn''t say anything now, he was afraid that Stanley would turn this ce upside down. "Jimmy,


    make an introduction."


    Jimmy pped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot. Miss Cruz, this is Jackson King. He is the


    oldest among us."


    It seemed that these men, including Stanley, respected Jackson very much.


    Sharon immediately sat up straight to show her respect, looked over, and said, "H-Hello, Jackson."


    Her back was facing him when she was talking to Jimmy, but now she looked at him with her face


    exposed under the light.


    Jackson was stunned when he saw her face clearly.


    Sharon had a delicate and beautiful face with a hint of youthfulness due to her tender age.


    She had quite a prominent facial feature which would bear a different kind of charm when she grew


    older.


    The reason why Jackson was slightly taken aback when he looked at this youthful face was that he


    had seen Sharon before, but he couldn''t remember when and where at the moment.


    He had a very good memory and should not be wrong.


    But he couldn''t remember where he had seen her before.


    He suppressed his surprise and nodded to her with a smile. "Nice to meet you."


    Sharon looked at Jackson opposite her and obviously saw the trace of surprise in his eyes when he


    looked at her.


    Why did he look at her like that?


    Although she was suspicious, she didn''t say anything. She simply smiled politely and said, "Nice to


    meet you too, Jackson."


    The more Jackson looked at her, the more familiar he found her, but he couldn''t believe it, thinking it


    was a coincidence.


    He put away his thoughts and stopped thinking about it.


    Jimmy was the only one Sharon was familiar with in the whole room, so she talked to him from time


    to time.


    During this period, Stanley, who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, fixed his fiery eyes on


    Sharon. His eyes were so zing that it was hard to be ignored.


    At first, Sharon directly ignored him, but then she was annoyed by his stare that she looked up at


    him and red back at him.


    What were he looking at? Humph!


    Stanley clenched his fists. How dare she red back at him?


    He squinted, his gaze turning fierce, and thought, "D*mn girl. I''ll teach you a lesson when we go


    back."


    Sharon was not afraid of him. With so many people here, he dared not do anything to her.


    So, she rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.


    Stanley''s face twisted in a disdainful grimace that veins popped up on his forehead.


    Jackson looked at the couple who was in some kind of intense battle silently. He found them


    amusing and frowned again.


    If Sharon really knew that man, then things would be tooplicated.


    He sighed, collected his thoughts, and lowered his head to start drinking.


    The more Sharon and Jimmy talked, the more excited they became. She didn''t expect that Jimmy


    was humorous and funny that he made her feel rxed unconsciously.


    Stanley''s expression became darker as he looked at them having a pleasant conversation.


    Sharon simply ignored himpletely.


    In addition to Stanley, Sharon also noticed another person looking in their way, and it was Jackson.


    After the brief greeting, Jackson sat there in silence. He would asionally nce at her tentatively,


    but most of the time, he smoked and frowned, as if he was thinking of something.


    Sharon frowned and started to feel a little irritated.


    Was she a monster? Why did he have to size her up like that?


    She should have expected the kind of friends Stanley would have. He was an entric person, and


    his friends were even more so.


    As she wasining in her heart, she suddenly heard a rumbling sound.


    Sharon''s face suddenly turned red. "1-1 haven''t had dinner yet."


    It was her stomach rumbling in hunger.


    It was so embarrassing.


    Jimmy''s handsome face was full of smiles. "I''ll ask someone to bring you some snacks, is that


    alright?"


    "Okay, thank you, Jimmy."


    Jimmy called the waiter toe over and whispered a few words. The waiter immediately turned


    around and went out.


    "Sharon, are you studying at Big Valley University?"


    After chatting with her for half an hour, Jimmy had already regarded Sharon as his sister, so he


    started to speak casually to her.


    Sharon nodded. "Yes. What school did you study in before?"

    In the course of their conversation, Sharon found him to be very delightful and talkative, so he left a


    good impression on her.


    Jimmy was exceptionally caring, considerate, and was a gentleman.


    "My university is in another state. It is a police academy, which was very boring as I trained all day


    long."


    Sharon nodded to show her understanding.


    After chatting for a while, the food was served. Sharon began to devour the snack and quickly


    finished a bottle of juice.


    Before long, she started to feel quite full.


    Sharon pointed outside with embarrassment and whispered, "I need to use the restroom. Excuse


    me."


    Jimmy nned to ask someone to apany her, seeing that it was her first visit today and she


    was not familiar with this ce, but Sharon hurriedly stopped him and said, "It''s okay. I''ll go by


    myself. I''ll be back soon."


    Jimmy nodded and said, "Be careful."


    "Okay."


    Sharon smiled, pushed the door open, and went out. She asked the waiter outside, and then she


    knew which direction the restroom was heading.


    However, it didn''t take long for her to stop abruptly.


    A tall and slender man came slowly from not far ahead; the man whom she buried in her deepest


    memory. He was Shawn Lewis.


    Why was he here?


    Sharon''s eyes widened and her body was as stiff as a stone. She couldn''t move a single step.


    In the private room, Jimmy watched Sharon go out. As soon as he looked back, something flew


    toward him from the side.


    He instinctively leaned back and dodged the attack.


    He turned around and saw that it was an apple.


    Jimmy looked at Stanley who attacked him, confused. "Stanley, what was that?"


    Stanley gave him a cold look and warned him, "You cheat on Ariah with another woman, and now


    you want to flirt with her?"


    Jimmy immediately understood what was going on and rubbed his nose innocently. It seemed that


    someone was jealous!


    It was best for him to avoid the storm.
