Chapter 218: That Was Not Love
At night, Sharon received a phone call from Trey.
Trey said, "Sharon, Daniel told me that Ruben now is staying at his place.How are you now? Yesterday,
my friend said that Giana's public relations team was dealing with the situation and has minimized the
impact."
"Thank you," Sharon said.
"I am fine.Ruben only moved here because he was worried about me."
Jacob hadn't called her all day to inform further details, so he probably didn't need her anymore.
After a while, Trey slowly said, "Sharon, do you have time on the weekend? Our company is going to
hold an annual meeting at Paradise Resort not far from the South City for two days.I want to invite you
to come."
Sharon thought for a moment and then nodded, "Sure."
Trey breathed a sigh of relief and seemed happier.
"Then I'll pick you up on Saturday morning."
Just as Sharon hung up the phone, Tiffany came over and asked excitedly, "How was it? Did Trey ask
you out?"
Hearing this, Ruben also looked over.
Sharon didn't know what to say.
Could they act normally? "It's not a date.He just asked me to attend his company's annual meeting."
Sharon said.
"Of course it's a date."
Tiffany said while eating potato chips, "You must present as his girlfriend.At the very least, even if you
are not ina relationship for the time being, it is a matter of time."
Sharon pursed her lips and did not say anything.
Ruben withdrew his gaze and continued to flip through his book, "I have no objections."
Tiffany raised her hands and agreed, "Me neither."
"I'm still a little dizzy.I'll go to sleep first."
Sharon then returned to her room and lay on the table, her fingers gently fiddling with the ornaments in
front of her.
Actually, Sharon had already considered Tiffany's question when she agreed to Trey.
She wanted to start over so she needed to get to know Trey first.
Sharon knew what she would mean by agreeing to it, but she did so.
Taking this step seemed difficult.
No matter what, it was a start.
Sharon gently exhaled.
She opened her draft book and looked at one page for a long time.
Then, she slowly tore it apart, bit by bit, and tossed it into the garbage can.
That should be over.
The next day, Sharon received a call from the police station.
The police told her that they had found said that Jessica and her daughter.
However, Jessica was already unconscious in the hospital because of a car accident.
Her daughter was all at the behest of Jessica and knew nothing at all.
The girl was still in high school and was forced to do many things.
So neither Sharon nor Ruben went too hard on her.
After hearing the investigation results, Tiffany said, "I still think it strange.The car accident is too
coincident.I believe that there was someone behind her."
Sharon said indifferently, "They have investigated the car that caused the accident.Everything is
normal.It was her fault to cross the road when she shouldn't."
However, it still makes some sense.
Anyway, she is a rogue and lawless person.
Crossing the road is nothing to her.
Perhaps this is her retribution.
Ruben said, "I don't think things will end so easily.We still have to be careful in the future."
After discussing the topic, Tiffany asked again, "Sharon, tomorrow is Saturday.Have you decided the
clothes you want to wear?"
Sharon was a little dumbfounded, "Do I have to decide my clothes?"
"Of course!"
Tiffany patted her own thigh hard.
"The annual gathering is the occasion where every girl would try their best to dress themselves.With
handsome and rich Trey as well as other successful men, it is their best chance ever.They would try
every mean to get what they want.You're pretty enough even if you don't dress up.But you still have to
be careful at these occasions."
With that, Tiffany pushed Sharon to her room and began to choose clothes for Sharon.
However, Tiffany was not dissatisfied any one of them.
"They are not sexy enough.Let's go out and buy some."
Sharon hurriedly pulled Tiffany back and said, "Enough.I think these are good.Besides, it's so late
now.The shopping mall has already closed."
Tiffany sighed, "Alright then, this is the only way.Fortunately, you are beautiful.You don't need the
clothes to prove that."
Sharon scratched her eyebrows and said, "I might not be back until the night after tomorrow.Maybe you
will feel bored at home on weekends.How about coming with me?"
Thinking back and forth these past two days, Sharon felt that it was a little embarrassing for her to go
alone.
However, she had already promised Trey, so it was hard to go back on her word.
"Are you kidding me? I'm not going to be the fifth wheel.I'm going to the bar this weekend to meet some
handsome guys.Don't underestimate me.Maybe I won't come back tomorrow night either." Sharon was
speechless.
Tiffany yawned, "I will go back to my room.You should rest as well.Get a beauty sleep so that you Can
amaze Trey tomorrow!"
"How am I able to do that?" Sharon smiled.
"Of course you can.You are so attractive."
"Don't exaggerate too much."
After Tiffany left, Sharon walked out of the bedroom.
In the living room, Ruben was packing his things.
Sharon poured a glass of water and said, "Ruben, are you going over?" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"Yes, it's getting late." Ruben nodded.
"Alright, go to sleep."
After Ruben walked to the door, he turned around and stood in front of Sharon.
After a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Have you really made up your mind?"
Sharon did not understand what he meant.
She put down her glass and said, "About what?"
"To be with Trey."
After a few seconds, Sharon smiled and said, "I haven't decided on that.I just want to know him to see
if we can work it out.If we do, maybe we will be together..."
"Do you like him?" Ruben frowned slightly.
Sharon opened her mouth, unable to answer for a moment.
After a while, she said, "Ruben, sometimes, love will come in time."
"Then it is not love."
Sharon lowered her head and held the glass tightly with her hands, not saying a word.
Ruben added, "I do hope you can meet someone who truly loves you, but I also hope that you love him
as well.It doesn't have to be Trey."
"Ruben..."
Ruben continued, "Do you still like Jameson?"
"It's getting late.Go to sleep." Sharon said calmly.
