Chapter 233
Chapter 233
In no time, Melody and Marshall found Sharon near the school. She was crouched on the ground, wailing like a child.
Many people passed by, some were watching the fun, while others were pointing and gossiping.
In grief, Sharon had no time to care about it.
It was a side of Sharon that Melody had never seen. Shocked, her face changed. She immediately ran over and asked, "Sharon, what's wrong?"
Also, Marshall quickly walked over and looked at her with concern.
With her teary face, Sharon suddenly said, "Melody, do you think Stanley is dead?"
Taken aback, Melody gasped, "Huh?"
"He must be dead. It's already been almost ten days. Why hasn't there been any news at all? He had not made a call or sent a text message..." Sharon paused on the ground as she wiped away her tears, sobbing. "If he was still alive, he definitely wouldn't have disappeared for such a long time. He must have died..."
Sobbing, the more she thought of it, the more it felt like reality. Hence, Sharon's tears rolled down her cheeks.
This time, she fell apart and burst into tears on the street. The emotions that were bundled up broke free. Shawn's excruciating words were like a sharp dagger, cutting off her rationality.
Seeing the state she was in, Melody accompanied her as she squatted down on the side of the road. While wiping her tears, she comforted her. "Don't think too much. There's no way he would
suddenly die. Besides, someone like Stanley has bodyguards to protect him wherever he goes. How can anything happen to him?"
Unable to take in Melody's words, Sharon was still crying sadly. "Then why didn't he call me?"
"Maybe he has some difficulties."
"What sort of difficulty does he have?" Sharon raised her head. Her eyes were very bright, as if she saw another light of hope.
How could Melody know what his difficulties were? Anxious, Melody's forehead was full of sweat. "Anyway, he must have his reasons. When he returns, I will help you question him!"
Marshall, who had been standing on the side, also said, "Melody is right. Everything will be fine. Don't overthink it. Also, if something really had happened to Stanley, his friends will definitely inform you immediately. Since not a single call came in, that's considered the best kind of news, isn't it?"
Stunned, Sharon thought to herself. That's right, why didn't she think of this?
Following that, she immediately got up from her squatting position. Hence, she felt dizzy. Melody held her in time and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I feel drowsy..."
It took a while for Sharon to recover, and then she hurriedly walked forward, "Melody, I'm going to call Brother King. I've called all of his friends except him. My phone is in the dormitory, please go back with me..."
"Hey, okay, okay, you'd better slow down, don't fall."
Immediately, Melody chased after her...
On the way back, Sharon seemed to remember Marshall, who was with them. Looking up at the man who had been standing beside Melody, they seem to be inseparable, and their fingers were clenched together. Sharon's heart ached when she saw how sweet they were.
With that, her eyes grew red. She suppressed the pain in her heart and asked in a hoarse voice, "Marshall, why are you here?"
"I was planning to bring Melody out for dinner, but we unexpectedly received a call from you."
"Sorry, I've ruined your date..."
"Don't be silly. Of course, you are more important than our date!" Melody held her arm.
Moved, Sharon held onto Melody and playfully joked with her, "Melody, do break up with Marshall. After that, marry me, and I'll I accept your proposal..."
"Quit messing around!" Melody was amused. "Alright, alright. Pay attention to your image. There's people looking at you... Sharon!"
In a flash, Melody's tone changed, sharp and excited. "Sharon, quick, take a look..."
Confused, Sharon asked, "What's wrong?"
In disbelief, Melody's expression was full of shock. Her hand trembled as she pointed. "Mr. Jones?"
Looking in the direction that she was pointing at. When Sharon's gaze came into contact with the figure in the distance, she was stunned. The blood in her body froze, and everything before her eyes turned black. Her body swayed, and Melody promptly reached out her hands to support her.
"Sharon, are you okay?"
Still in shock, Sharon's eyes were on the man, who was standing under the tree not far away. She could not hear what Melody had said at all.
Although they were far apart, she could still see that he was furrowing his brows. It seemed that he was a little impatient.
Since Sharon had spent a lot of time with that man, she had thoroughly understood his personality.
To be straight, he was just an impatient man.
The man was tall and straight. And, the gray shirt outlined his figure well. Also, his sturdy arms were exposed from the rolled-up cuffs.
A cigarette was between his slender fingers. His neck was lowered, and the side of his face was distinct. He was casually smoking.
Blankly, Sharon stared at him. It had been ten days since they last saw each other, yet he had suddenly appeared in front of her without any warning. Just like ten days ago, he had vanished without a word.
Thinking about it, Sharon's nose was aching and the rims of her eyes were burning hot. Standing there, her hands clenched into fists as she stared at the man in front of her.
The man, who had been standing still, suddenly moved as if he had noticed something. Slowly, he raised his head and stared straight at her with his dark and deep eyes.
Then, the man moved. After he had pinched the cigarette in his hand, he walked towards her step by step.
Staring at the slender figure for a moment, his steps sped up with an urgent longing manner. As he had not seen her for a long time.
Desperately, he wanted to hold her fragrant, soft body tightly in his arms. Stanley so badly wanted to smell her scent that made him feel at ease and familiar.
Closer, there were still ten steps left before he could reach her.
Five steps more, he could clearly see her slightly red eyes.
Three steps closer, he could even feel her trembling body.
With one step, he reached out and wanted to hug her... ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Bang!
A full force slap, which was full of hatred, sounded loud and clear.
With that, Stanley's face twitched as he felt a burst of numbness. The joy and longing beneath his face disappeared without a trace. Furrowing his brows tightly, a trace of anger flashed across Stanley's eyes. His thin lips were tightly pursed.
Missing her like crazy, the first thing he did after waking up was to take the first plane home. He was so tired that he only wanted to hug her, but it resulted in him being heavily slapped by this woman.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't angry. Stanley's temper was already bad enough. Now that he was slapped in front of so many people, he gritted his teeth.
Raising his eyes, he stared straight at the woman who had slapped him. Stanley asked word by word, "Why?"
The hoarse and deep voice came overflowing from Stanley's throat. It could penetrate one's heart.
Suddenly, Sharon, who was standing still, reached out her hand to push him aside, and strode away.
This time, not only was Stanley, even Melody was dumbfounded.
Pushing his girlfriend, Marshall said, "Go and take a look, she doesn't look well."
Immediately, Melody reacted and ran after her. "Sharon!"
When she caught up with her, Melody was shocked. "Sharon?"
