Because You Are My Lady novel (Sharon and Stanley) novel Chapter 34

At noon, when they were having lunch at the company cafeteria, Skye, who built a good relationship with Sharon, took her to sit down together. Sharon was a newcomer, so she ate her lunch quietly while listening to her coworkers gossiping about the company.

When a group of women gathered together, they were either shopping to spare their time or gossiping.

Sharon's action of eating slowed down when someone mentioned Stanley.

"Hey, is our president serious to Jewel? Two days ago, there were rumors about them all over the major TV channels, but none of them broadcasted their news now. Why is that?"

Janice Wagner felt a little regret since she had not seen enough of the gossip yet.

Lenny lowered his voice and replied, "Could it be that the president had used some means to suppress the matter?"

"It's very possible, but why? If the two of them are in love, there is no need to hide it, right? Just admit it honestly."

"Maybe the president wasn't serious with her.

As soon as the matter was exposed, the president was a little angry, so he suppressed this matter..."

Janice started to daydream. "Since Jewel has missed her chance, maybe it's my turn soon!"

"Ahem!"

Sharon choked.

Janice glared at her. "What's wrong? Are you laughing at me?"

Sharon hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no. Janice, you're young and beautiful; you sure have the chance. It's just that the president doesn't come to our department. You need him to be near you in order to tackle him, don't you agree?"

Janice thought for a moment and sighed. "That's right. I've been in the company for two years but I only met him once. Alas."

Upon hearing this, Sharon was even more relieved. It seemed that she would not meet him at the company at all.

When the lunch was coming to an end, somehow, the gossip circled back to Stanley's first love. Janice nudged Skye with her arm. "Hey, you have worked in the company for the longest time among us. Do you know why our president hasn't been married yet? Does he hide a girl inside his heart?"

Skye took a sip of tea, thought for a moment, and said, "When I first joined the company, I heard rumors that the president had a first love whom he was deeply in love with."

Janice's eyes lit up when she heard that. "I knew that the president must have someone in his heart for he is not married yet! Skye, tell me, who was the president's first love who kept him thinking about her for so long!"

Skye glanced at her and said faintly, "I only heard about the rumors. It was said that the president had a girlfriend before and they shared an awesome relationship, but..."

Janice's eyes widened. "But what?"

After a moment of silence, Skye said, "But... she passed away."

"Huh?"

Janice couldn't believe it.

Sharon was also stunned. Her mind was blank and she was dumbstruck.

Was the dead girl Rebecca?

No wonder he got that look on his face when she asked him about his first love the other night. It turned out that she had poked into his sad past.

Sharon felt a little regret for being insensitive the other day.

Skye shrugged. "It's just rumors and hearsay. I don't know if it's true or not." "If it is true, then I bet our president does not love Jewel!"

"Why?"

"How can a living person compare with a dead person? The dead must have left a deep mark in the heart of the living. It can't be erased for the rest of their lives. Jewel might just be a substitute."

Janice pursed her lips.

Skye lowered her voice and said seriously, "Well, don't mention it again. We are employees. We should not be gossiping about our president's business. It will not do us good if someone overhears us and report to him."

Janice stuck out her tongue. "Got it. My mouth is sealed. I won't say anything."

Skye nodded, got up, and when she was about to go back to the office, she saw Sharon sitting motionless on the chair, so she reached out and nudged her. "Hey, Sharon, why are you in a daze?"
