Tiffany stayed with Sharon until Jameson came.
"I want to get out," said Sharon to Jameson.
Jameson, sitting on the sofa, stretched his tie and slowly replied, "I thought we agreed on half a
month."
Sharon had her mouth open, wanting to say something, but she felt that it was useless.
And she remembered what Tiffany had told her in the afternoon.
So she licked her lips, lay on the bed, and said, "Fine.Half a month then.Anyway, Martin Morton is
gonna be here soon.I can chat with him."
"???"
Jameson had only learned the news regarding Mr.Morton this afternoon.
The Morton Family kept it a secret from the public, perhaps waiting for Martin Morton to come back and
take charge.
"Who told you this?" asked Jameson.
"I met Aylin Morton downstairs.She told me."
"They are in this hospital?"
"That's right.Maybe-it's fate."
Jameson scornfully laughed and got up from the sofa.
"What are you doing?"
"I thought you wanted to leave.I'm gonna get you out."
He left immediately afterward.
Sharon looked at his back and smiled"It worked!’
On the way back, Sharon asked, "Do you have my phone?"
Jameson answered with a straight face, "Yeah."
'......What a child! thought Sharon.
"Give it back to me!"
protested Sharon, "I have things to do."
"Like what?"
"Well, business, duh! I haven't touched my phone since yesterday.What if someone's looking for me?"
"There's none."
"Have you checked my phone!?" Sharon froze for a second.
"Anything I shouldn't see?"
".....Well, it's not like that.It's just.....Shouldn't you have at least told me before you did it? What about
trust!?"
Jameson didn't seem bothered at all, "Have you ever trusted me?"
Sharon couldn't help but grimace"What an a**hole, she thought"I've never seen such a petty man!’
"You can have the phone," said Jameson before Sharon could answer his question.
"But only if you stay home for a few days or go with me to the company."
Sharon shouted almost immediately after his words, "Stay home!?"
Jameson smiled faintly.
Sharon realized that she had fallen for his trick.
"If you feel bored alone.I can work from home to keep you company."
".....Wow, thank you so much."
"I'll ask Jennifer to cook for you.You can go anywhere you like, but someone has to accompany you.It's
either her or me."
"I am not a kid! Why do I need someone to follow me?"
"If you pass out again, where am I gonna find you?"
"It was just an accident, ....."
"Didn't you hear what the doctor said? You're stressed out and unstable.And you need to rest well.If
you encounter further shocks, you will probably faint again."
"How come I don't remember that last part?"
"It's a logical conclusion."
Sharon moved her vision outside the window to halt the conversation.He always had reasons.
There was no point in arguing further.
Having returned to the apartment, Sharon took a shower and then locked herself in the guest bedroom.
Just as she expected, he started knocking on the door soon.
Sharon buried her head under the quilt, pretending to be asleep.
"Do you want your phone or not?" asked Jameson deliberately.
She pulled down the quilt and considered his offer.
"Your brother texted you," came Jameson's voice again.
"What did he say?" asked Sharon as she sat up on the bed.
"I haven't read it."
Sharon took her time to put on her shoes and then walked to the door.
After opening it, she reached out a hand to Jameson.
Jameson grabbed it under her watch.
"....."
Sharon looked at him expressionlessly, "I want the phone!"
Jameson raised his eyebrows, "Oh, I misunderstood."
Sharon wanted to say something, but Jameson tightened the grip and pulled her out of the room.He
held her waist with one arm.
"Why are you sleeping here?"
"Didn't the doctor say I'm stressed out and unstable?"
"Yes?"
"I think, under such conditions, it's better if I stay alone, or I'll affect you as well."
"Who says you're affecting me?"
Sharon replied with his own words, "It's a logical conclusion."
Jameson twitched his eyebrows.
Sharon took over the phone and found many text messages but Ruben's.
All the texts were unread.So he had lied to her about checking her phone.
"Didn't you say Ruben texted me?"
"He didn't? Then I saw it wrong."
Sharon knew it would be like this.He had all the excuses in the world.
She freed herself from his embrace and headed back to the guest bedroom.
"I'm going back to sleep....."
But she was pulled back.
Jameson carried her in his arms and dropped her on the bed of their bedroom.
"Stop messing around and be a good girl, ok?"
"I'm not messing around.I want to calm down by myself and think about some things."
"What do you want to think about?"
Sharon moved her face away from him, "Nothing."
Jameson held her chin and turned back her head.
"You're so good at giving others consolation.How come when it comes to yourself, you're struggling so
hard to get through?"
"I'm not troubled by Josh Allyson.I'm just....."
"Just what?"
Jameson stared at her with his dark eyes.
Sharon opened her lips but didn't make a sound.
Jameson waited patiently.
After a long while, she finally opened up, "I'm afraid that HE will hurt Ruben."
"Who?"
Sharon stopped talking again.
Jameson pressed against his teeth with the tip of his tongue.
He slowed down his voice, "You.....you already know it?"
"I should've known it earlier.There's no causeless kindness, and there's no hatred out of nowhere."
It was not a coincidence at all at the cemetery.
Pattrick Matthias was there precisely to help her.
Maybe he had known it since a long time ago.
Jameson rubbed her head and asked, "So what's your plan? Confront him?"
