Chapter 226
The Heiress Strikes Back
226 Staying Over
Sharon glanced at Yusuf. This old man is really sharp. He has probably already realized that Iâm the Sullivan Groupâs CEO, so heâs doing these things to test me.
She thought that Yusuf would grab her and talk non-stop or that he wanted to seek deeper cooperation with her. However, he only gave her a meaningful look and said with a strange smile, âSorry for disturbing you. Iâll reimburse the bill for todayâs expenses in our hotel. Is it inconvenient to stay here at this time...â
âMy house is nearby. You can let this lady come back with me first.â Just as Yusuf was about to leave the two of them behind, Florence and Tommy suddenly walked back.
Tommy frowned slightly. He couldnât understand why this old man had only appeared now, so he naturally couldnât hand Sharon over to him so completely.
âNo, we have to go back to the training ground together tonight.â Xenia bit her lower lip. I didnât expect that even the investor of the production team would have to give this old man some face. And what this old man said just now is clearly pointing to something-he is on Sharonâs side.
Florence gave Xenia a cold look as if warning her not to talk too much.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xenia stared at the so-called big shots-who had just eaten at the table-as if asking for help. In front of Old Master Yusuf and Tommy, she didnât even dare to breathe.
âIn that case, I wonât force you. Itâs fine as long as thereâs a place to go.â Yusufâs eyes flickered.
Sharon couldnât guess his thoughts as they looked at each other.
âTake her back to your villa first. I still have something to say to Mr. Yusuf.â Tommy gestured for Florence to take her away quickly. The less Sharon appears in front of everyone, the better.
When the two of them came down in the elevator, the doorman had already brought out Florenceâs car. For some reason, Sharon could feel a strange hostility and distrust toward her.
They didnât speak much on the way to the villa. Florenceâs gaze fell on her again, wary and strange as if Sharon were a peerless female liar who could harm the company.
Actually, Florence had her own plans. She had been in Sullivan for many years. On the one hand, this company was convenient for her to find something. On the other hand, it was to prevent her from leaking a very important piece of information!
Previously, she knew that the chairman had changed, and Tommy praised Sharon to the skies. Today was the first time she saw this so-called âexpert,â and Florence couldnât help but suspect Sharonâs identity.
âGo in and quickly sleep. Iâll send you back to the training ground tomorrow morning.â
Hearing Florenceâs cold words, Sharon didnât take it to heart. After all, she was the person protecting Sullivan. She could feel that this woman actually didnât have any ill intentions toward her, but she was really wary.
âThis is my private address. Please donât leak it,â Florence said seriously. She was even more suspicious of Sharonâs motive. I have a feeling that there is something else behind her becoming the CEO.
âDonât worry. I wonât cause you any trouble.â Sharonâs eyes seemed to have seen through everything, and Florenceâs face was filled with shock. Little did she know that Sharonâs thinking ability was quite mature, and she had long thought these things through.
And Sharon couldnât help but praise Florence in her heart. She can actually live in such a large villa at such a young age.
âYou can stay in this room tonight.â Florence pointed to a room on the side.
This room was far from the study or the place where documents were stored. It wasnât easy to reach. At least this would reassure her a little.
When she returned to her room, Sharon lay on the bed. Yusuf and Florence repeatedly appeared in her mind. What is Old Master Yusufâs motive, and why does Florence not believe me?
Although Sharonâs heart was filled with questions, she was already too tired to think of anything. She collapsed onto the bed in exhaustion.
...
After an unknown period of time, Sharon woke up in the room. Before she could react, she received a message on her phone: Florence asked her to hurry downstairs for breakfast and then find someone to send her back to the training ground.
Sharon shook her head helplessly. She really didnât have enough energy now and was very tired every day.
âIt has nothing to do with you. Iâm warning you not to disturb me and donât let those bastards disgust me! Otherwise, Iâll escape to a place where you wonât be able to find me.â Before Sharon could go downstairs, she heard Florenceâs tone filled with anger and coldness. Disgust rose in her heart!
