Chapter 292
Right after Stanley finished explaining himself, he instantly regretted it. Last night, he had made up his mind to distance himself from her. What was he trying to explain now?
When Stanley thought about this, his face turned cold again.
As Sharon looked at him in a daze, she blinked her big eyes, and the tears in her eyes started to fall. With a pitiful look on her face, she mumbled, "You... were worried about me?"
"Uh, no." In an indifferent tone, Stanley answered her question. "If something happens to you at the entrance of my house, then it's got to do with me as well."
After a simple explanation, he headed out with his briefcase.
Immediately, Sharon trailed behind him.
However, she remained silent as she followed him all the way to the underground parking lot. Since the two of them did not have a joyful conversation last night, so it was definitely not a good start to the relationship.
In fact, Sharon had never thought that Stanley would have no intention of regaining the memory that he lost, which made her feel very helpless.
Although she wanted to help him retrieve his memories, he was not interested. How could she help him then?
"Miss Cruz, where are you heading to?" Just as she was thinking about it, Stanley's voice rang out. Hurriedly, she raised her head and looked over at him, with her eyes glowing. "I will be following you. I will be heading wherever you're heading to."
That answer made Stanley at a loss for words.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
When Sharon saw that his face had darkened, she knew that he was probably unhappy with the answer. Instantly, she changed the subject and said, "I am just joking. You can just find a place around the corner outside to drop me off."
Clearly, Sharon knew that in this situation, Stanley had no feelings for her at all because he had forgotten all about their past. If she were to continue to pester him like this, she was afraid that he would be unhappy.
As he heard her answer, he opened the car door and said nonchalantly, "Get in then."
As soon as Sharon got into the car, her phone rang. It was from Howard. Immediately, she answered the call and said, "Dr. Perkins."
Meanwhile, Howard glanced through the information he had just received. "Sharon, I've managed to investigate Stanley's affairs around Allgate City over the past few years."
However, Sharon didn't expect his actions to be so swift, and she was taken aback for a moment. "Oh?"
"...The Warner Family is not considered a big family in Allgate City. They were doing pretty well more than ten years ago, but things started to go downhill after that, and in recent years, their business has gradually worsened. Four years ago, Ayana, the least favored daughter of the Warner Family, brought a man home. It took him only three years to expand and save Warner Family's business which almost went bankrupt." When Howard came to this point, he paused for a moment and continued, "There's no need for me to tell you who that man is. I bet you already know."
At that moment, Sharon knew that Howard was talking about Stanley, and indeed, Stanley had the power and ability to help the Warner Family rise again.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help glancing at Stanley. Next to her, he was driving with a straight face, and his tightly pursed lips were poignant. In the past, whenever Sharon stared at him like this, he would always tilt his head and smile at her as he asked her what she was looking at.
But now, he was driving coldly, as if he didn't realize the way that she was looking at him.
But how could a man with such keen observation not notice that she was looking at him...
In fact, he just didn't want to talk to her...
As she thought about this, her nose twitched, and she withdrew her gaze, then said to the phone, "Okay, I got it, is there anything else?"
"There is something else, but you might be a little upset when you hear it."
"Go ahead."
"Half a year ago, Stanley and Ayana had an engagement, and their wedding will be held in a month."
The moment Sharon heard Howard's words, her heart sunk. Although she had long known that he was engaged to Ayana, she still felt very uncomfortable every time she heard it.
After Howard finished his words, he sighed heavily. "Stanley doesn't remember anything about the past. He only remembers that Ayana saved him. I grew up with him, and I know that he values loyalty the most. So as long as Stanley doesn't regain his memories, he will definitely marry Ayana."
Meanwhile, Sharon's mind was thrown into a state of confusion by Howard's last words. At that moment, she bit her lip and whispered into the phone, "I will not allow that to happen."
After that, she hung up the phone.
Indeed, she would not allow that to happen. Unless Stanley regained his memories and told her in person that he wanted to marry Ayana, or else, she would not give up!
At that moment, Stanley, who was driving, raised his eyebrows. Earlier, he heard Sharon's words clearly, and her tone was firm, but the emotion in her voice was also very strong, as if she was making an oath.
Casually, he asked, "Who were you calling?"
The call that made her so hot-tempered.
After Sharon put away her phone, an idea came to her mind, and she quickly answered, "Your childhood friend."
The traffic light happened to turn red, so Stanley stopped the car and turned his head to look at her, with a complicated emotion in his black eyes. "Oh?"
"His name is Howard Perkins, do you remember this name? He's a doctor, and he is a close friend of yours. Oh, by the way, there's also Jackson King and Jimmy. Brother King is a soldier, and he's currently somewhere around the world, carrying out his mission. As for Jimmy, he's a policeman. When you disappeared four years ago, he was the one who did almost everything just to find you, but in the end, he didn't manage to find you, and gradually, even he gave up. Besides, many things happened in the past four years. When you were gone, Jimmy and Ariah even got a divorce. Sigh, they used to be so close..."
The more Sharon spoke, the darker Stanley's face became. By the time Sharon finally stopped, she turned to look at him and asked with confusion, "W-What's wrong?"
At the moment, Stanley's lips were tightly pressed together. Upon a closer look, there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. Greatly startled, Sharon quickly leaned over. "What's wrong with
you? Don't scare me!"
It was Stanley’s headache that had worsened again. Whenever he recalled what had happened in the past, his head would ache. Immediately, he pinched between his brows and shook his head. "I'm fine."
However, Sharon didn't believe what he said at all. Just now, he seemed so uncomfortable, so there must be something wrong.
Although she was anxious, there was nothing she could do, so she muttered to herself, "I'll give Howard a call and ask him to come over and check on you..."
"There's no need for that!" Before she could finish, Stanley interrupted her in a cold voice, "Dr. Perkins is also a stranger to me. A bad habit of mine is that I don't like to meet strangers, so... please don't worry about me."
At that moment, Stanley's attitude was even colder than a stranger's. While Sharon stared relentlessly at his cold face, she thought to herself, "He was never like this before. Why did he change so much after his memory loss..." However, Sharon suddenly lost control of her emotions, as she threw herself at him, kissing him on the lips without even thinking about it.
Meanwhile, Stanley didn't think that she would use this tactic, and his body suddenly stiffened. When Sharon's lips bit on him rudely, his body violently trembled. It was as if an electric shock had gone from his lips all the way to his heart.
Suddenly, he came to his senses and angrily pushed her away from him!
When the back of Sharon's head hit the chair, she snorted. At that moment, her vision was blurred, but when she looked into his red eyes, she was shocked.
