429 Working Together to Set a Trap

“What do you mean then?” Sharon knew that this man’s motive was not simple.

“I can choose not to cooperate with Sullivan, but you also know that Wallace has left the Harris family. I can choose not to cooperate with Sullivan, but I can keep delaying and obstructing him. With Wallace’s current financial resources, I’m afraid he won’t be able to stall for that long! Besides that, I heard that Wallace’s father is still looking for a new business partner. If you think that we can trust each other, why don’t we go to my family’s hotel at eight tonight? I’ll treat you to supper, how about that?”

She didn’t expect this guy’s motive to be her. Sharon was a little interested. Through the project proposal just now, Sharon could tell that Patrick’s family did light product processing. If this company could be taken over by her, wouldn’t the collaboration with Xenon’s company be settled easily?

“Sure.” Sharon’s voice was very soft, then she looked at Patrick. “It’s just that it’s not appropriate to go to a hotel. I’m a public figure...”

Patrick didn’t expect Sharon to take the bait so easily. He smiled brightly. “I forgot. I’ll prepare a private place and contact Mrs. Harris then! Come, come, Young Madam, let’s shake hands for our beautiful future!”

Patrick didn’t hide his lust at all. His eyes were filled with evil light. He had long had feelings for Wallace’s celebrity wife, but he hadn’t had the chance to take action!

He had to get Sharon as soon as possible and enjoy her!

Sharon despised the man in front of her and didn’t want to shake hands at all, but she was also worried that Patrick would see through her and not fall into her trap, so she could only bite the bullet and reach out.

Just as Patrick was about to touch Sharon’s hand, a familiar hand caught him off guard.

“Who the hell are you!” Patrick was surprised to see the hand reaching out diagonally. “Wallace, you... why are you here at this time?”

Sharon was stunned. She turned around and saw that it was really Wallace.

“I also want to know why Mr. Sharp invited my wife over.” Wallace’s expression was dark and his voice was cold.

“This is my husband. You know him too.” Sharon didn’t expect Wallace to appear.

When Patrick heard Sharon’s words, his expression obviously changed. He also looked a little unhappy. “So what if you’re here? But to be able to marry such a beautiful wife, you sure have some ability!”

“I didn’t expect such a tasteless person to ask my wife out.” Wallace didn’t hide his disgust for this man and deliberately dragged his tone.

Patrick wanted to retract his hand in disdain, but Wallace’s hand was like a metal clamp, making it impossible for him to do so.

“Oww-” Patrick gasped. The bones in his hand hurt too much. Was this fella trying to break his bones? “Hurry up and let go. My hand is going to break.”

Sharon didn’t expect Wallace to be so angry and quickly said, “Hubby, let go quickly! Mr. Sharp is planning to cooperate with Dad’s company!”

Upon hearing Sharon’s words, Wallace let go of her hand, but Patrick’s hands were already in extreme pain, and his expression was very twisted. He glanced at Wallace fiercely. “Ask Wallace to go back immediately. I’m not used to discussing cooperation with outsiders!”

“How is he an outsider? Wallace is my husband. Everyone knows that, Mr. Sharp, didn’t you look for me because of my identity?”

“Even if he’s not an outsider! I’m not used to discussing such an important matter in front of a third party. Don’t you want me to give up on our cooperation and investment with Xenon’s company?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Patrick looked at Wallace in disgust. He just wanted to chase him away as soon as possible. After all, he couldn’t say things so bluntly in front of her husband.

He was even more worried that if he exposed his true motive and Wallace directly canceled his cooperation with Sullivan, he would lose another chance to be intimate with someone else’s wife.

Sharon secretly poked Wallace to hint at him, then looked up. “Hubby, why don’t you go back first? I’ll have a good talk with Mr. Sharp. Didn’t Dad hand over the cooperation to me? If I settle this matter, won’t it be easier for our family?”

“It’s alright. I’ll talk to Dad. I’ll wait for you here.” Wallace seemed to understand what Sharon wanted to do. After Sharon finished speaking, Wallace pulled her and sat down with her.

Seeing the intimate interaction between the two of them, Patrick frowned angrily. The meat that was about to reach his mouth had flown away just like that!
