Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 23

When Sharon opened her eyes, the first thing she felt was that her whole body seemed to be broken apart accompanied by a huge sore.

She sat up from the bed with her hands supporting her waist and gritted in agony. She thought about what happened last night and cursed, "F*ck! beast!"

He had not just done the deed twice in the study, which was the sacred place in the house, he made love to her again when they returned to the bedroom where she had been reduced to a ball of mud and couldn't move!

Hazel was cleaning up the living room when Sharon went downstairs and poured herself a glass of water. Hazel stopped what she was doing and said, "Madam, let me reheat breakfast for you..." Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

"No, it's okay. I'll do it myself."

Sharon gulped down the water and ran to the kitchen. She was not a rich spoiled young lady who needed servants to serve her. She could just eat whatever she wanted to eat and would try not to bother others.

After the meal, her phone rang. Sharon answered it immediately when she saw that it was a call from Melody, who urged her to go out and meet her. Sharon quickly agreed, packed up, and went out.

Melody had been waiting for a long time when Sharon arrived. As soon as Sharon sat down, Melody said, "Sharon, didn't you adore Jewel very much?"

Sharon was stunned by the inexplicable remark. "What?"

Melody looked at her with a smile. "I remembered you were a fan of Jewel before. You would put her photo up as wallpapers, and when her new TV series was out, you would discuss it with me. But

now, I notice that you rarely talk about her to me. Why is it?"

Sharon broke out in a cold sweat at once.

Melody was a smart person. She would not ask such a question for no reason. What did she have in her mind?

No way, she had never revealed anything to Melody ever.

It was nothing more than the abrupt phone call from Jewel yesterday. She was unprepared and answered it in front of Melody. She was stunned for a moment. With Melody's intelligence, she didn't know if Melody guessed that something was wrong with her.

Facing Melody's burning eyes, Sharon laughed dryly. "Goddess, I..."

"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are gray."

As soon as she opened her mouth, a cell phone suddenly rang. It was Sharon's phone. She took a sigh of relief and saw that it was an unknown number. After a moment of hesitation, she answered, "Hello, who is this?"

The person on the other end of the line asked, "Excuse me, may I speak to Sharon Cruz?"

"Uh, yes, speaking."

"Hello, Miss Cruz. I am Troy Wilson from the human resource department of the Jones Group. You sent us a resume yesterday. I would like to ask if you have time to come here for an interview today."

Sharon's eyes widened. "You're not lying to me?"

"Of course not. The interview is at 2 pm. Please remember to be on time for the interview."

With that, the person ended the call.

Sharon trembled with excitement. "Melody, I got the call from the Jones Group!"

Melody raised her eyebrows. "Didn't you go to their interview yesterday? Why did you receive another interview call today?"

Oh no!

She misspoke.

Sharon laughed dryly. "It was a call from a small company yesterday. Today, it's the Jones Group, a big company!"

Melody stared at Sharon for a long time and finally sighed. "Go quickly then. Don't be late. Remember to treat me to dinner after the interview."

Sharon was her friend, and both of them talked about everything. It was true that they were very close, but everyone had their own secrets in their hearts.

Sharon didn't want to say, so Melody didn't force her to spill it.
