Chapter 751


    Sharon gasped in utter shock when she was told that Simon suddenly talked. As she heard Simon


    calling her Mom in his adorable voice, tears started to flow down her cheeks.


    The realization that it was not that Simon couldn''t speak but he just didn''t want to hit her.


    He was absolutely fine.


    All of Sharon''s worries for the past few days disappeared, and she burst into tears of joy.


    She had originally thought that since Simon talked for the first time, he wouldn''t be able to speak


    properly, but he could talk clearly and his expression was on point.


    Delighted, Sharon held Simon in her arms and talked to him for a long time until she became thirsty


    from all the talking that Stanley carried him. "Take Sadie to take a bath. She''s going to sleep."


    "Oh." Only now did Sharon realize that it was gettingte.


    Hence, Sharon hurriedly brought Sadie to the bathroom to wash up.


    On the other hand, Stanley put Simon to sit beside him and pinched his chubby face. "Good boy,


    you make Mommy so happy."


    Looking at Stanley with eagerness in his eyes, Simon stammered, "I want to see Lacie..."


    "You want to join next week''s party?"


    Simon nodded, "You promised..."


    In fact, Stanley had indeed promised him that if he could talk to Sharon to make her happy, he


    would take him to next week''s party.


    Hence, he smiled as he looked at Simon''s dark big eyes. "Alright, I''ll take you there."


    Overjoyed, Simon danced happily.


    Looking at the happy boy, Stanley arched his eyebrows skeptically. Simon didn''t seem like the type


    who liked to bully girls, and he actually adored Lacie very much. He wondered what did Simon do


    the other day that made Lacie cry. What did he do the other day that made her cry?


    Soon, it was Saturday. They chose to meet up in the countryside which was suitable for a whole


    family to have fun.


    Stanley brought two nannies with them to take care of the children so that Sharon and Ariah didn''t


    have to worry about them.


    When they arrived at the venue, the guys went to y golf while Sharon and Ariah were basking in


    the sun.


    Sharon recorded a video of the children ying and posted it on her Facebook.


    After a while, Howard liked her post and added ament, "Where are you? It seems like a nice


    ce. Oh, I''m so bored. I want to go too! Send me the location!"


    Sharon replied, "Aren''t you working today?"


    "It''s my off day."


    With that, Sharon shared their location to him.


    It didn''t take long for Howard to arrive and he brought ine along.


    However, from the look of it, it was obvious that she didn''t want to be here.


    From a distance, Ariah and Sharon could see Howard and ine standing by the car and talking


    about something. They were so far away that thedies couldn''t hear any sounds, but from their


    actions, it seemed like they were in the middle of an argument.


    After exchanging nces with Ariah, Sharon shouted, "Howard, over here!"


    With a smile on his face, Howard slowly walked over and greeted, "Hey. Where are the boys?"


    Sharon pointed in the direction, saying, "Over there."

    "I''ll go look for them." After saying that, Howard walked away without saying anything to ine nor


    asking Sharon to entertain her.


    Regardless, Sharon waved her hand at ine to invite her to join them. ine took out a few


    delicate candies from her pocket. "I saw them on the road and felt that they were cute, so I bought


    some for Seamus and Sadie."


    With a smile, Sharon took it. "Thank you."


    A shy smile appeared on ine''s face. "You''re wee. It''s just some candies."


    "They won''t mind. They like to eat these." Then, Sharon pulled her to sit down. "Why did youe


    with Howard?"


    ine pursed her lips and huffed, "I didn''t want to, but he insisted."


    Noticing the sorrow in her expression, Sharon asked skeptically, "Did you have a fight with


    Howard?"


    ine immediately looked down awkwardly. "N-No. What makes you say that?"


    Upon seeing her hesitation, Sharon and Ariah exchanged nces. Ariah gestured at Sharon with a


    nod to hint her to give them space. Nodding in return, Sharon stood up and said, "ine, make


    yourselffortable. I''ll bring the candies to Seamus and Sadie."


    After Sharon left, Ariah pulled her to sit beside her and handed her a bottle of water. "Drink some.


    It''s quite hot today."


    "Thank you." Feeling a little thirsty, she took the bottle and drank a few mouthfuls.


    All this while, Ariah kept her stare on her. When she spotted the hickeys on her neck, she snapped,


    "Did Howard bother you?"


    "What?" ine was taken aback.


    Ariah took the water bottle from her hand and looked at her. "Sharon and I have always taken you


    like our little sister. If Howard treats you badly, you can tell us."


    They would stand up for her.


    Confused, ine stammered, "W- What do you mean?"


    Ariah took a deep breath to calm herself. "What''s that on your neck?"


    Upon hearing that, ine quickly covered her neck as if something crossed her mind and blushed


    shyly.


    "Just now when you and Howard got out of the car, Sharon and I could see that there was


    something wrong between the two of you. You also said that he forced you toe here."


    ine pursed her lips.


    Ariah sighed, feeling like she would be anxious all day long if she had a younger sister like ine.


    Just as she was wondering if she was having her finger in their pie, ine started to sob, "H-


    Howard kissed mest night and threatened me not to tell anyone, or he would beat me up."


    "What?"


    Sharon hade over and when she happened to hear ine''s remark, she instantly exploded in


    anger, "Howard really said that?"


    Ariah''s expression also darkened, but she was a little calmer than Sharon. She took out a paper


    towel to wipe ine''s tears. "Did you let him kiss you?"


    With a red face, ine shook her head. "Of course, not. I have a fiance. Besides, I don''t like him.


    Last night, h-he suddenly pressed me against the sofa and kissed me. I freaked out. I kept crying


    and hitting him. Finally, he lost his temper and looked very scary..."


    ine was young and had never experienced these things. What happenedst night traumatized


    her very much. She was shocked and scared and did not dare to tell others. Now, her tears could


    not stop falling down as Ariah and Sharon, who were like big sisters to her,forted her.


    She couldn''t help trembling as she thought of what happenedst night, and started to spurt


    gibberish.


    As Sharon listened on, she was also extremely angry. She had long known that Howard was a


    womanizer, but she didn''t expect that he wouldy his hand on the innocent ine.


    How could this b*stard do such a thing!


    Eventually, Ariah asked the most critical question, "Don''t cry. Tell us the truth, what did Howard do


    to you? Did he physically assault you? If he did, we will call the police for you."


    ine looked at them with her teary eyes with a hint of confusion, "W- What do you mean by


    physical assault?"


    Startled, Ariah slowly exined, "D- Did he have sex with you?"


    ine nodded and then shook her head. "My mom told me not to mingle with men. She doesn''t


    allow me to hold hands with a man or kiss me. I''ll have a baby if I sleep with a man... Howard not


    only kissed me but also asked me to sleep with him. Ariah, w-will I have a baby?"


    Upon hearing that, Ariah and Sharon slowly widened their eyes in shock.


    God, ine seemed to have zero knowledge on sexuality!
