She picked up another glass, but just as she was about to drink it, a hand stretched out suddenly to stop her.“You’ll get drunk if you drink like this.” A playful voice sounded in her ears, and she saw Howard’s carefree appearance the moment she turned her head.She furrowed her eyebrows. She was in a bad mood now, and the last person she wanted to see was him. She shook off his hand impatiently. “I didn’t ask you!” After saying this, she downed that glass of wine.Howard snickered mockingly. “What? You can’t stand seeing a different woman standing by my uncle’s side?” Derision appeared in his eyes. “You should’ve expected a situation like this ages ago. I told you, you’ll divorce him sooner or later!”These words stabbed straight into her heart. It was not as if he had never told her these things before, but before this, she had never taken them to heart. Now, however, his gloating lit a fire in her chest. She did not control her tone and coldly commanded, “F*ck off! Don’t bother

He turned away abruptly. His pitch-black, fear-inducing gaze landed on her. His tone was extremely icy when he spoke, “Secretary Lawrence, you’re overstepping again.” No matter how he and Sharon were, it was not her place to chime in.The way he addressed her as ‘Secretary Lawrence’ made Rebecca remember that night at the hotel when she confessed her feelings for him but he harshly shoved her away!Her face paled. She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms.Simon did not say anything more to her. He walked past her, not once glancing at her.He only thought about how he did not want to dance the opening dance later with Rebecca.Under Eugene’s instruction, Sharon danced with him. Coming off the dance floor, her palms were full of sweat. It was unsure if it was because she was too nervous or because it was hot.“See. I told you you’d definitely dance well.” Eugene saw her sweating prettily and could not help smiling. He took out a handkerchief he brought with him and

Her dumbfounded expression was quite amusing. Bending his finger, he tapped her on the forehead as he said in a low voice, “You’re not allowed to have any contact with him, you hear me?” Sharon rubbed her aching forehead and said in a huff, “Don’t be so bossy. You…” She had not finished speaking when she was interrupted. The sound of footsteps traveled toward them as a woman called out, “Simon, are you here?” That was Rebecca! Sharon did not blink as she stared mockingly at him. His ‘best friend’ was in search of him. Was he not going to let go of her? The man had a calm expression on his face and did not seem worried that Rebecca would catch them in the state they were in. “Simon, where are you? The party is about to start. Uncle has requested that we dance the opening dance…” Rebecca could sense that Simon was nearby but could not pinpoint his exact location. Sharon had a mocking expression as they stood in the corner. Was he not going to leave? This time, Simon frown

Her discomfort caused her to forget that she was dancing with the company’s president and that countless gazes filled with jealousy and hatred were directed at her. Especially Rebecca, who was standing beside Douglas. Her nails sank into her palms as she looked at the two waltzing romantically on stage. She felt both wronged and humiliated. She was supposed to be Simon’s dance partner for tonight’s opening dance, but he switched partners in front of everyone. Was this not to humiliate her? What was worse, she had to pretend she did not mind it at all although she was furious. Else, she would be the butt of everyone’s jokes. Simon had blatantly changed the dance partner Douglas chose for him. Naturally, the look on his face was not pleasant either. He put on a poker face as he stared expressionlessly at the stage. When he saw Sharon put her head on Simon’s shoulder, he scowled and found himself even more unable to continue watching. Were they dancing or showing off their relatio

Simon ground his foot at that same area a couple more times. Franky, who was behind him, did not dare look at what was going on. When the man was in so much pain that he could not even make a sound, Simon said coldly to Franky, “Drag him out of here and get rid of him!” “Yes, President Zachary!” Franky immediately dragged the man out of the room and closed the door. From the start till the end, he had not dared to even look at Sharon. Simon’s men were stationed both inside and outside the hotel to ensure the anniversary celebration would go along smoothly. Thus, when Franky saw a man dragging Sharon away through the surveillance cameras, he immediately reported it to Simon and found out where they were. Sharon lay on the bed, her consciousness slowly fading. The veins on Simon’s forehead popped when he saw the state she was in. Pulling her up, he gritted his teeth as he bellowed, “Sharon Jeans!” He finally understood what was happening to her when he saw her reddened face
