Evonne looked at Sharon whom she had never really concerned or doted on. She suddenly felt sorry for her and blurted, "Mr. Jones, I hope you will treat Sharon well in the future. Even if you don't love her, please don't do anything to hurt her."
Sharon was stunned. She did not expect Evonne to say such a thing.
Stanley narrowed his deep eyes. After a while, he opened his thin lips and said, "I won't hurt my wife. You don't need to worry about this!"
After that, he left with Sharon.
Several people were startled on the spot. Cecilia was the first one to compose herself and shouted incredulously, "Mom, did you hear that just now? What did he say?"
Sharon married that man! That was impossible!
Evonne was also shocked. Did Sharon really marry Stanley? How could that be possible!
How could such a man marry an ordinary Sharon?
In the car.
When Sharon in the front passenger seat looked at him for the tenth time, it happened to be a red light, so Stanley stopped the car and massaged his forehead. "What? Do you have something to say?"
Sharon nodded repeatedly. "Of course!"
"Then say it."
"Just now... I was hallucinating, right? You didn't say I'm your wife in front of the Casey Family, did you?" Sharon looked at him uncertainly, with hope in her eyes, hoping that she had heard it wrong just now.
Stanley saw through her little thoughts at a glance and nodded. "Yes, you're hallucinating."
"Oh, so there really is something wrong with my ears." Sharon breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you kidding me?" Stanley continued.
Sharon felt as if a mouthful of breath was stuck in her throat that almost choked her. She wanted to beat him up.
"Stop staring." Stanley reached out and rubbed her head. "Fasten your seat belt."
Sharon obediently fastened her seat belt because Stanley could get really crazy when he was behind the wheels.
She figured that it was not a big deal for the Casey Family to know about her relationship with Stanley. She would not have any contact with them in the future anyway, so she couldn't be bothered with them.
After thinking through this, Sharon was relieved.
Another thing flashed across her mind. She squinted at the charismatic Stanley beside her and asked, "What did you say to that old man?"
"That old man?"
"Jordan Casey."
Stanley laughed in a low voice. "Do you want to know?"
"Of course!"
She was curious since then and had been holding it back for such a long time.
"I told him that I would stop my attack against Cascade Enterprise with one simple term, that is, he needed to keep his eyes on his family. In the future, no matter Cecilia or Evonne, they can't show up in front of you or in the hospital. Even if they meet you by accident, they have to turn around and leave. They can't see or upset you."
Stanley said lightly, "He agreed to my condition immediately. He promised that he would teach Cecilia and Evonne a lesson when he went home."
Sharon was stunned. "Really?"
"There's no need to lie to you."
"Are you... going to let Cascade Enterprise go?"
"Let's see how they behave themselves. If they upset you again, remember to have some pillow talks with me and let me know who you want me to make a move on." He looked at her with a sinister grin. "You need to improve your pillow talk skills."
Sharon took a deep breath and huffed, "You are too bad!"
Stanley cleared his throat and said, "It's okay to be bad to my own wife..."
"I don't mean you are a bad guy in that context. I'm just saying that you're quite wicked... Oh, I mean, I saw through your rogue nature a long time ago."
Stanley squinted at her.
