Chapter 334


    Upon hearing the voice, Stanley turned around. When Liam saw his face, he raised his eyebrows


    and sneered, "Geez, you even still look the same. I thought at least falling from such a high spot


    would ruin your face. What a pity."


    Liam clicked his tongue as he spoke.


    Stanley stood there, allowing Liam to get a closer look at him. After a few minutes, Liam was finally


    done circling him and scoffing. Only then did Stanley give him a cold stare. "Is that enough?"


    Liam shrugged. He pulled out his office chair and sat down. "When did youe to Beachmarsh


    City?"


    Curious, Liam hadn''t heard any news about Stanley at all. Could it be that his return was kept as a


    secret or that Stanley was stealthy about his whereabouts?


    Stanley didn''t reply. Instead, he walked around the office. Liam stared at his back as if he was a


    predator patrolling his own territory, and then he frowned. "You came here to look for me. Don''t tell


    me you''re hoping that I would return the possession of Jones Group to you. Listen, it won''t be that


    easy to get back the things that you handed to me yourself."


    Stanley looked back at him. "No."


    "No? You''re here to reim ownership, aren''t you?"


    "I''m here to help you."


    "Help me?"


    Stanley''s lips curled into a smile. "Before I came, I''ve already read some information. Over the past


    few years, Shawn''spany has risen rapidly. On the contrary, Jones Group is getting worse and


    worse by the year. I personally handed over thepany to you, but you messed it up. Liam, don''t


    you think you''re useless?"


    Immediately, Liam flew into a rage. How dare he mocked him as soon as he came back? Did he not


    see him as equal at all?


    "I am kind enough to not ask the guards to kick you out. If you continued to be conceited, don''t


    me me for being rude!"


    After speaking, Liam mmed the table. "Hey! That''s an expensive vase! Don''t touch it!"


    As soon as he said that, the door of the office was pushed open. The secretary was shocked to


    hear that the president was so angry. Walking over with a cup of coffee, she said in a trembling


    voice, "Pre- President, here''s your coffee."


    Following Liam''s hand gesture, the secretary quickly left the room.


    Stanley nced at him and decided to put down the vase. Liam sneered in satisfaction. "Just now,


    you said you wanted to help me. What do you mean by that?"


    "Literally what I mean."


    "Make it clear!" Liam especially hated the way Stanley spoke with him, which made him seem


    especially stupid.


    "...I want to help you take down Shawn." Stanley looked up at him with his dark and sharp eyes,


    saying word by word, "I want him to leave here and make sure there’s no ce for him in


    Beachmarsh City!"


    When Shawn called Sharon, she was eating in the cafeteria. She nced at her phone but did not


    pick up. Instead, she immediately declined the call.


    Obviously, Shawn would not give up. His called her again.


    And Sharon still did the same; she didn''t answer it but cut it off.


    After a while, Shawn''s text message came in. "Sharon, answer the phone."


    Sharon ignored him at first, but after thinking for a while, she sent him a text. "I don''t want to talk to


    you now. I don''t want to hear your voice. Shawn, do you think I will forgive you so soon after you did


    such a thing to me?"


    "I''m sorry, it''s my fault. I went crazy yesterday and didn''t control my emotions well and I frightened


    you. I''m sorry Sharon, I know I was wrong." Shawn''s short texts came in one after another. "I have


    been protecting you for four years and I know that you haven''t moved on from Stanley, so I have


    never once forced you to be with me the past four years. I thought that as long as I continue being


    by your side, protecting you, one day, you will see the good in me and be with me, but I was wrong.


    Once Stanley returned, you ran back to him, and I couldn''t stand it... I couldn''t control my emotions


    which made me hurt you!"


    With tightly pursed lips, Sharon looked at the text message that he sent eagerly while holding the


    phone.


    "You'' re thest person in this world that I would hurt, Sharon. I''m sorry. I was too disgraceful


    yesterday. I''m sorry. Can you please forgive me?"


    Every word he said and every ''Sharon'' he called out dearly through the texts, there was a sense of


    sincerity. Sharon could even imagine what kind of expression he would have if he were in front of


    her right now.


    However...


    A mistake was a mistake; once a mistake was done, there would not be forgiveness.


    What happened yesterday left far too deep a scar in Sharon. At the thought of it, she felt horrified.


    "Shawn, let''s reduce our contact from now on. I''m really done with my feelings for you. I don''t love


    you; we are only friends. I won''t be with you, not now, not in the future. I hope you''ll live a good life,


    one that is fulfilling to you."


    Sharon finished thest sentence, "Please, don''te to me in the future. You''re too good that I


    can''t stand it, and you''ve caused me a lot of burden."


    These words were too hurtful, too cruel. No one would be able to endure it.


    And she understood Shawn. She knew that if he saw these words, he would also be unable to bear


    it, so she sent them without hesitation.


    Sure enough, after she sent the message, there were no further replies from Shawn anymore.

    Sharon heaved a sigh of relief.


    In the hospital, Shawn sat still on the hospital bed while he stared at the content of the text


    message. He was emotional, and the rage inside him started boiling.


    He mmed the bed and threw the phone away from his hand, which broke into two.


    Sharon was a littlete when she arrived at the school; most children had left, and only her children


    remained in ss. She didn''t know if the children panicked.


    By the time Sharon reached school, her forehead was already covered in sweat. The teacher''s


    attitude was much better than usual. "Miss Cruz, you must be tired. Come, have a ss of water."


    "Thank you." Sharon politely received the ss of water and asked, "Where''s Seamus and Sadie?


    Sorry to trouble you again, teacher."


    "The kids are very well-behaved. There wasn’t any trouble." The teacher smiled and waved her


    hand. "I saw that they were a little tired, so I sent the children to the principal''s office."


    Sharon was a bit surprised. "The principal''s office?"


    "Yes." The teacher looked at Sharon deeply. "Miss Cruz, why didn''t you tell me earlier that you are


    acquainted such a big shot like Mr. Frazier? If you had told me earlier, the school would definitely


    not allow the Garners to bully you."


    Sharon was startled. Mr. Frazier? Which Mr. Frazier?


    When she arrived at the Principal''s office, she immediately understood what was going on.


    It was Liam Frazier.


    Sharon frowned as he watched Liam ying games with the children in his office. Seamus was


    sitting on the sofa, frowning as he looked at the puzzles in his hand. Sadie was sitting on Liam''s


    knee, ying with the blocks of wood in her hand. The few of them had been too engrossed in the


    game and had not even noticed that she came over.


    She had to clear her throat. "Ahem."


    Hearing this, all of them all looked up and found that it was Sharon. Sadie hurriedly got off from


    Liam and threw herself into Sharon''s arms. "Mommy!"
