Liam, who was sitting opposite Sharon, took a glass, shook it slightly, and slowly took a sip. His expression of enjoyment paired with his stunning looks was too attractive.
Sharon thought to herself, "How can there be such a beautiful man in this world? He really makes women jealous."
At the same time, he was so mysterious that she could not see him through.
When he was with her in the hospital, the feeling he gave her made her feel at ease and moved.
But now, it was unrestrained frivolous.
She didn't understand why a person could emit two extreme vibes.
Seeing that she was staring at him, Liam smiled playfully and asked, "What's wrong?"
Sharon looked away, shook her head, and said with a smile, "I just think that you are very beautiful."
Liam blinked, astounded.
It was not pleasant for a man to be praised as beautiful.
Noticing his darkening face, indicating that he might be unhappy, Sharon quickly changed the subject to avoid awkwardness. "Mr. Frazier, I haven't thanked you for what happened in the hospital last time."
Liam raised his eyebrows. "Do you want to thank me?"
"Of course."
"OK, how do you want to thank me?"
"Uh... This dinner is my treat, okay?"
"It's not worth it." Putting down the wine glass in his hand, Liam stared at her with a romantic look in his eyes. "If I want to receive the thank-you gift from whoever owes me a favor, it will generally be a big deal."
Sharon was stunned. "Then what kind of thank-you gift do you want?"
"You!"
He thought, but he didn't say it out loud.
He was only getting closer to her now, and he didn't want to scare her with his impetuous action.
"Let's take a rain check on the thank-you gift. I'll let you pay it back when I think of something in the future. What do you think?"
"Okay."
When they were almost at the end of dinner, Sharon looked around and whispered, "I'll go to the restroom. Please wait for me for a while. I'll be back soon."
Liam smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll wait for you."
Sharon nodded and went to the restroom under the guidance of the waiter.
As soon as she left, someone who was sitting in the corner had a look of surprise flashed across her eyes.
That person was Cecilia. She didn't expect to meet Sharon here. Thank God, she finally had a chance to take revenge!
She sneered silently in her heart, but smiled gently at the man in front of her and said, " Derrick, I'll go to the restroom. I'll be back soon."
Derrick Wilkins stared at her charming face and was lost in thought. He quickly nodded and said, "Go ahead. I'll wait for you."
Cecilia stood up and followed Sharon.
After going to the toilet, Sharon came out of the stall and opened the door. As soon as she saw Cecilia who was standing in front of the mirror, fixing her makeup, she was stunned.
"Look at us. Fate really brings us together." Cecilia casually flipped her long hair and turned to look at Sharon with a faint smile on her face.
Sharon frowned and pursed her lips, wondering what she wanted to do.
She stayed put.
"I haven't seen you for only a few years, but you have become more and more capable. I really never expect that." Cecilia sized her up and clicked her tongue. "You used to kneel in front of my door like a beggar asking for money, but after a few years, you stand upright in your decent clothing to hook up with rich people. Way to go, girl!"
Sharon looked at her with no expression. "It's strange. There's no dog here. How could I hear a dog barking?"
"You..."
Cecilia raised her hand and was about to hit her, but Sharon avoided her and looked at her coldly. "Oh? Haven't you have enough slap that day?"
