Chapter 158
Chapter 158
"You run an entertainment company, so I figure you must have contact with Jewel the big star." Sharon had no idea that Liam had another thing running in his mind. "If you know Jewel, I want to ask if you know where she lives."
Liam raised his eyebrows. "So you're calling me because you want to know where Jewel's house is."
"Yes." She nodded without hesitation.
Liam suddenly felt heartbroken. "That's so hurtful. I thought you call me because you miss me."
Disgusting.
Sharon was startled by his shameless remarks that it took her a while to compose herself and say, "Just tell me, do you know Jewel's address?"
Liam smiled. "Of course."
Sharon immediately sat up straight. "Where does she live?"
"Do you think I'll tell you so easily?"
As expected, she had to pay the price if she needed an answer.
"What do you want?"
"Where are you now?"
Sharon was surprised. "You want to see me?"
"Of course, you want something from me and I want something from you. This is a deal, isn't it?"
Sharon thought about it and agreed. After a moment of silence, she told him the address. "Come over. I'll wait for you here. You have half an hour, and I'll leave immediately if you don't come."
After that, Sharon hung up the phone.
She had hesitated to call Liam and figured that she would definitely leave immediately if he didn't come on time.
On the other hand, Liam squinted as he looked at the phone in his hand.
Sharon was the first person who hung up on him and asked him to be there within the specified time.
This woman was...
Haha.
Very interesting.
Pushing the chair aside, Liam got up and went out. William was startled to see him leaving and quickly asked, "There's meeting in half an hour..."
"Postpone it to tomorrow," Liam simply ordered. "Also, continue to contact Harvey and tell him to get back here immediately if you can get through to him."
"Yes."
Half an hour later.
The door of the suite was pushed open. Liam came in from the outside and was stunned when he saw Sharon who was resting her head on the table, seeming to be asleep.
After a pause, he subconsciously lightened his footsteps and slowly walked toward her.
It seemed that she didn't notice that someone had come in as she remained lying on the table without moving.
Liam stretched out his hand and wanted to touch her, but before he touched her hair, Sharon, who had been lying still, suddenly raised her head, saw him approaching, and immediately leaned back to avoid his touch. "What are you doing?"
Liam retracted his hand awkwardly. "Are you awake?"
Sharon frowned and looked at him warily.
She was too full and had been waiting for a long time that she almost fell asleep while waiting.
"Do you really have to look at me like I'm a thief?" Liam pulled out the chair and sat opposite her. "How about it? I'm not late, am I?"
Sharon didn't want to talk too much with him, so she asked directly, "Where does Jewel live?"
"Hey, I just sat down and haven't say anything yet, and there you are, cutting to the chase. I'm so sad," Liam said with a smile.
Sharon looked at him coldly and said, "We're strangers. There's nothing to talk about."
"You're so heartless. Which stranger would kiss twice?"
Sharon was furious. "Liam Frazier, watch your tongue!"
Frowning, Liam said, "Why? I'm just telling the truth."
Sharon was extremely angry. She regretted not seeing through this man's scheme earlier and let him take advantage of her twice!
Now that she thought about it, she gnashed her teeth with hatred.
Looking at her pissed-off look, Liam stopped teasing her and said directly, "Why do you want Jewel's address?" "I want to see her."
"Why?"
"That's none of your business. You just need to tell me where she lives."
Liam leaned back, looked at her with his arms crossed in front of his chest, and said, "If I tell you where she lives, what can I get in return?" Sure enough, he didn't want to be taken advantage of.
Sharon held her chin and chuckled. "Are you looking for your partner, Harvey, these two days?"
This was her speculation. Harvey would certainly not go back to the company now, and she did not know where he hid.
Since Liam was his business partner, Liam would definitely look for him if he didn't resurface for two days.
Therefore, Sharon's guess was absolutely correct.
Unmistakably, upon hearing this, Liam's expression changed slightly but he quickly calmed down. "Do you know where he is?"
"Of course."
"Where is he?"
"Tell me Jewel's address."
All of a sudden, the room fell into silence.
After a while, Liam laughed and said loudly, "Okay, alright."
Sharon didn't know why he laughed so arrogantly, yet the laugh gave her goosebumps that she frowned and stared at him.
Liam didn't expect that this woman also had such an irresistible side.
He always thought that she was timid and an easy target since she was still a college student who hadn't seen much of the world. He was confident that he could charm her easily.
However, things continued to develop in the opposite direction.
She was not charmed at all, but he increasingly found something lovely about her.
It was even more so now. She had the nerve and charm to sit in this tiny suite and negotiate with him.
Liam fixed his eyes on her with burning eyes. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Jewel lives in an upscale residential quarter, Charming Hills Apartment."
"Tell me the specific address."
Liam told her the block number, which floor, and the house number.
Sharon saw that he didn't seem to be lying, so she believed him for the time being.
"Do you know who bought the house for her?" Liam asked again as he stared at her.
Sharon looked at him and said nothing.
"Your husband," Liam smirked. "It is an expensive house. He must have spent a lot of money. Sharon, I don't know how can such a man attract you and make you so loyal to him. I don't get it."
Sharon said calmly, "Since Stanley is my husband, of course, I think he is good everywhere. Besides, I am his wife. I should be loyal to him. Do you think I should devote to you, an outsider, instead?"
Liam looked straight into her eyes. "You fall in love with him, don't you?"
Sharon was stunned. She suddenly remembered that he also asked the same question last time, and what did she say?
Oh, yes, she said that she didn't love him.
Sharon smiled, and there was a hint of shyness in her adorable smile. "Yes, I love him."
Maybe she had been falling in love with him for a long time, but she kept telling herself that she couldn't love him...
However, you couldn't control how you felt. The more she tried to suppress her feelings, the more vigorous her feelings for him would be.
Perhaps she fell in love with him when he appeared in the shabby rental house the first time and asked her to marry him.
Or perhaps she fell in love with him when he aimed the gun at his forehead without hesitation to save her.
She might have fallen in love with him unconsciously.
She didn't know when and how she fell in love with him.
In short, she fell in love with him.
Now she could tell herself and others with the certainty that she had fallen in love with that man called Stanley.
There were blue veins on Liam's forehead, and he seemed to be very angry. "Even if he doesn't love you, you still love him?"
Sharon nodded without hesitation. "Yes."
Liam was stunned. "Why?"
He didn't understand why she had to be persistent if he didn't love her back.
Sharon thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I love him because who he is. I don't care whether he loves me or not."
Liam stared at her eyes. After a while, he smiled and said, "You're pretending. Don't you really care that Stanley doesn't love you? I don't think so. You're just deceiving yourself!"
Sharon didn't want to talk to him anymore, so she said, "I have something to do, so I have to go now..."
"Are you angry from embarrassment after I expose your true feeling?" Liam smiled slowly.
Sharon looked at him coldly with no expression on her face. "You are too suspicious and stubborn. No matter what others say, you don't believe it. You just insist on what you think. In your heart, you think that I don't love Stanley, so what else can I say to you?"
Liam was astonished. He didn't expect that she would see through him with just a few words...NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
"I really have something important to do. I have to go now."
"Wait..."
Liam, who was in a daze, stopped her.
Sharon slapped her forehead. Sure enough, it was not easy to get rid of him once she called him here.
'What else do you want?"
Liam raised his eyebrows and looked at her. "You got the information you need. What about mine?"
Was he talking about Harvey?
Sharon almost forgot about it if he didn't remind her. After thinking for a while, she said, "Two days ago, I was kidnapped at a dinner party."
Liam was bewildered. "Kidnapped?"
"Harvey did it!"
"Impossible..."
"Why is it impossible?" Sharon stretched out her hands and showed him her wrist. "This is the binding mark when they kidnapped and bound me. Harvey worked with Jewel and wanted to kill me, but their plan failed in the end. Jimmy, Jimmy Hudson, I think you should know him, he brought the police to save me, but unfortunately, the lunatic Harvey escaped!"
Liam was shocked. If Sharon was telling the truth, then he knew exactly why he couldn't get in touch with Harvey in the past two days.
"How dare he?"
Liam slammed the table furiously, and there was a storm in his gazes. "How dare he do such a thing behind my back!"
Sharon narrowed her eyes. "You didn't know anything about this?"
"Of course not!"
Sharon nodded.
Liam was a little surprised by her reaction. "Do you believe me?"
She saw Harvey coming to his apartment, so she naturally thought that they should know each other. Harvey then kidnapped her. The first reaction of a normal person would be to suspect Harvey's other partners.
And he should be the first suspect.
But Sharon didn't suspect him at all.
"Why don't you suspect me as one of Harvey's accomplices?" Liam asked.
