Chapter 9
At the dining table.
The ambiance was a little quiet. Only the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding could be heard, as well as the sound of typing.
It was Sharon who was typing frenziedly on her mobile phone.
She was so immersed in her world that she failed to notice that the expression of the man sitting opposite her was getting more and more gloomy.
Their class had a group chat that was being bombarded by endless messages now. Someone got hold of the news from an unknown source that Sharon had first-hand information about Stanley and began to bid like crazy. The bidding price was approaching five hundred!
Five hundred!
Sharon's eyes lit up. She couldn't believe her eyes at all.
This group of people was crazy!
How could they spend so much money just for one piece of information?
But the crazier they were, the better. Only in this way could she have a chance to earn more money!
Hopeless romantic girl number one asked, "What kind of woman does Mr. Jones like? Innocent or sexy?"
Innocent or sexy?
She thought about Jewel. What kind of person was she?
Suddenly, Sharon came to a conclusion. She quickly typed, "Half innocent and half sexy! I wish you success in pursuing Mr. Jones as soon as possible. Good luck!"
Hopeless romantic girl number two asked, "Does Jewel really have a relationship with Mr. Jones? Or are they just having a fling?"
Having a fling?
Unlikely.
Stanley had always kept a mysterious and low profile. There used to be some rumors between him and the notable socialites, but those women had never been on the news with him. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Jewel was the only one.
She was on the news on TV and the paparazzi managed to photograph them hugging each other at the door of the hotel.
If he didn't love Jewel to the extreme, such a low-key man would not have these rumors.
Besides, as the Young Master of the Jones Family, none of the media in Beachmarsh City would dare to report his news without his permission.
Therefore... Sharon typed it out word by word. "No, it's not gossip. What they have is true love, but don't be discouraged. Jewel will not marry into the Jones Family in a short time. You still have a chance. Good luck."
It was impossible for Sharon to spend the rest of her life with this man. When she made enough money, she would demand...
"Are you going to spend the rest of your life with your phone?"
The deep male voice suddenly sounded. The voice was a little bit mellow and sexy, which was particularly pleasing.
Of course... it came with a hint of displeasure.
Sharon looked up in astonishment and met the man's deep eyes.
Stanley's expression did not look very good. He furrowed his brows which were obvious that he was unhappy.
Having been together for a year, she had more or less figured out his emotions.
Sharon darted her eyes around and put away her mobile phone. She then put in some good words and said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
The man lifted his eyelids, looking leisure and casual. "What did you do wrong?"
Sharon said cautiously, "I played with my phone and did not concentrate on my meal."
Stanley raised his eyebrows. There was a hint of playfulness in his dark eyes.
This girl was particularly well-behaved. She was good at reading people's minds and had a sense of propriety.
As Sharon observed his reaction, she knew that her guess was right, so she immediately threw her mobile phone aside and obediently lowered her head to eat.
The man's dark eyes fell on her. He thought that she was still young to know better and was at the most rebellious and unrestrained age, but it turned out to be the opposite. She was obedient, sensible, and very well-behaved.
The incident with Jewel was a great example. When she knew about it, she didn't have any resentment nor did she make a fuss about it. She didn't even try to figure it out.
He was surprised at this point.
"Is there anything fun on the phone?" Stanley leaned back and asked directly.
"I can't let him see my phone, or I'll be exposed for selling his private information for the extra cash!" she was anxious.
"Ahem, may I ask you a question?"
Sharon blinked her eyes to divert his attention.
Stanley raised his eyebrows. "Ask away!"
"When did you first have sex?"
