Chapter 144: This May Be the Last Time I Help You
He could only show a bitter smile.
He thought to himself, ‘Sir, can you please worry about yourself? Right now, your situation is clearly
much more serious! ‘What happens on you is much more serious than Sharon’ Jameson continued, "If
I didn't help her, she probably would have been killed before she knew it."
"Mr.Proctor..."
"Judging from the charity banquet last time and the revelations today, I think that the reason why
somebody did this was that he wanted Sharon's reputation to be ruined.We can think about who would
benefit the most if she leaves Lumiere Jewelry?"
Jacob paused and understood what Jameson meant.
"Mr.Proctor, you mean it may be done by someone from Lumiere Jewelry?"
Jameson leaned against the chair and his expression was cold.
"She always says something improper and has offended quite a few people.Let's start with the one who
seems to be the most proper suspect.”
"Yes."
Jacob took a few steps and then turned around.
"What about the rest?"
"Don't care about the rest.They can't be solved in a hurry.When that person gets what he wants, he will
naturally deal with the rest."
Hearing this, Jacob was slightly shocked, "Mr.Proctor, do you know who did it?"
Jameson raised his eyebrows and didn't show any emotions.
Jacob immediately said, "I'm going to investigate Mrs.Proctor's case right now."
After Jacob left, the office fell into silence.
Even a single sound could be heard.
Jameson stood up and came to the floor-to-ceiling window.
Looked at the bustling streets with his hands in his pockets, he was lost in thought and no one knew
what he was thinking.
After a while, the phone on the table rang.
Jameson turned around and saw that it was Sharon.
He stood where he was without moving.
After the ring stopped, the screen of the phone turned dark.
Jameson withdrew his gaze.
After standing there for a few minutes, he turned around to pick up his phone and dialed back.
A few seconds later, Sharon's soft voice sounded, "Mr.Proctor, are you busy now?"
Jameson said coldly, "Yes."
It was as if he was unwilling to say one more word.
"Then if you are busy, I will talk to you later."
Just as Sharon was about to hang up, she heard his voice, "Speak now."
He sounded extremely dissatisfied.
She whispered, "Charlotte called me just now.She was very worried about you."
"Why was she worried about me? Did she think I would commit suicide? Sharon was concerned about
him, but she didn't expect that he still had such an attitude.She was slightly annoyed and
said;'Mr.Proctor, do you have to speak like this?"
Jameson looked up and saw the reflection on the floor-to-ceiling window.
He suddenly recalled something.
"Sorry” he said after a moment of silence.
"Ask me again."
Sharon was speechless.
Jameson said indifferently, "I'm fine.Don't worry about me.”
"Well, if you're fine, just call Charlotte."
"I see."
"Then that's all,’ Sharon said.
"Bye, Mr.Proctor."
Suddenly, Jameson called Sharon by her name, "Sharon."
Sharon's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.
"What's wrong?"
"I'll give you one last chance."
Jameson's voice softened.
"Do you want to remarry me?"
Sharon was silent for a long time. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Why did Mr.Proctor suddenly ask me this?"
"You only need to answer me."
"Isn't Mr.Proctor going to marry Miss Beale?"
Jameson said, "Alright.You don't need to find so many excuses.You have lost the chance."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Sharon was dumbfounded.
She looked out of the window and suddenly wanted to cry.
What was this jerk doing? Why did he ask her that question from time to time? At this moment,
someone knocked on the door.
Sharon rubbed her eyes and walked towards the door.
At Rita's.
Rita looked at the public opinion on the Internet, which had changed.
She felt uneasy.She knew that those reporters didn't dare to expose the Proctor Group.
Originally, she just wanted to spread the scandal with their help that Sharon was a mistress and
already had an illegitimate baby.
However, she didn't expect was that things would be out of her control.
Someone said that the place in the photo was the Proctor's.
Others made the issue of illegitimate children bigger.
In the end, everything was aimed at Jameson.
Rita knew that the current situation had far exceeded her expectations, and it was very likely that she
would be trapped in it.
Just as Rita was thinking about what to do, her phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, she hurriedly answered, "Bridger?"
On the other end of the phone, Bridger paused for a moment before saying, "Rita, they should have
found me.This may be the last time I help you."
Rita hurriedly said, "Bridger, where are you now?"
"Rita, don't worry.I've said before that no matter what happens, I will take the consequences.I won't get
you implicated."
Despite what he said, Rita was still worried, "But...."
"Rita, take good care of yourself and live a good life in the future.Don't hide in a dark place like me."
After that, footsteps came from the other side of the phone.
He whispered something to the phone and then Rita heard a sound as if something fell into the water.
Bridger threw the phone into the water.
Rita finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Even if those people wanted to investigate, they would not be able to find her.
Rita held her phone and hesitated for a while before dialing a number.
After the phone was answered, she whispered, "Miss Beale, it's me.’
Natalia smiled and said, "Miss Roose, what's wrong?"
"I want to ask you about the revelation on the Internet.Will it bring bad influence on the Proctor Group?"
"Miss Roose, why do you ask me this?"
Rita hurriedly explained, "Miss Beale, don't get me wrong.I'm just ...Because...."
Rita was so nervous that she didn't know what to say.
After a while, she continued, "I once received the financial support from the Proctor Group so that I was
about to study in Paris.After I came back, the Proctor Group also helped me a lot.Thus, when I see that
such a scandal breaks out in the Proctor Group, I want to know what the Proctor Group is now."
"Oh I see." Natalia's voice was gentle.
"Actually, I'm not very clear about this.How about this? I'll go ask someone and then tell Miss Roose
about it."
"Alright, thank you, Miss Beale."
"You're welcome.It's just that this happened too suddenly.Because of this, there's also fluctuation on
the Proctor Group's stock price."
Hearing this, Rita felt that her heart was beating wildly.
However, she didn't dare to say too much, for fear that she might give herself away.
She could only say, "Thank you, Miss Beale.If there's anything I can do, please tell me."
Natalia said, "Miss Roose, you are so nice."
After hanging up the phone, Rita began to browse the news on the Internet.
Seeing that the number of people discussing about this had decreased, Rita felt that Jameson must
have asked someone to deal with it.
However, she became more nervous.
Once the news on the Internet was cleaned up, they would definitely come to her.
