Sharon and Melody came out of the hospital and stood on the side of the road, planning to hail a cab and leave.
Just then, a black Mercedes slowly stopped in front of them. The window rolled down, revealing a man's prominent side profile.
"Sharon."
The man opened his mouth and shouted.
Sharon was stunned for a moment, and then she found that it was Shawn.
Why was he here?
Melody nudged her with her arm and winked at her. "Hey, who is it?"
The man was extremely good-looking, and he was staring at them with his brown eyes, with a smart and charming temperament.
How did Sharon know such a fine- quality man?
Sharon pursed her lips, pulled Melody, and turned around to leave.
The door was pushed open and blocked their way. Shawn stepped out of the car with his slender legs. His broad chest was just in front of her, and his breath shrouded her. "Get in the car."
Sharon frowned and stepped back.
At this moment, Melody also realized that the relationship between the two was not simple.
Shawn knew that she would resist, but he was not angry. He simply smiled and said, "I came to you this time because I have something to tell you."
"I don't want to know..."
"Don't you want to know about Stanley Jones?"
Sharon's heart skipped a beat, and her fingers subconsciously clenched.
Melody was in pain because of her pinch, but she forced herself to hold it back and didn't make a sound.
After a while, Sharon saw that it was still early and Melody was with her, so she pursed her lips and got into his car.
Shawn looked down and smiled.
He drove steadily and the car was quiet. There were so many people outside, so he was not in a hurry and slowed down, going with the flow of the pedestrians. He rested one hand on the steering wheel and the other was on the window while driving leisurely, unlike the other drivers who pressed the horn irritably and anxiously.
What a calm and restrained man...
Melody made her guesses. She took out her mobile phone and sent a text message.
Sharon's phone beeped, indicating that there was an incoming message. She took it out and looked at it. The sender was obviously Melody. She looked at Melody sitting next to her with a serious look and clicked on the message suspiciously.
"Who is this man?"
Sharon didn't know what to say.
After a while, she received another short text message. "Tell me quickly!"
Sharon moved her fingers, typing a text, and replied to her, "A friend."
Melody said, "Do you think I will believe that?"
"Tell me the truth. Who is it?" Melody added.
"The lost youth."
"Oh, first love..."
Sharon squinted again.
"Ahem." Melody cleared her throat and looked at the driver. "May I know your name, sir?"
Shawn took a look at the rearview mirror with a smile in his eyes. "Shawn Lewis."
"Hello, Mr. Lewis, where are you taking us?"
"How about dinner?"
"Okay, I haven't eaten yet."
Sharon frowned, pinched Melody, and said in a faint voice, "I've already eaten, so I'm not hungry. Tell me what you want to say. After that, you can drop us upfront."
Shawn glanced at her faintly. "You really regard me as a driver."
