Chapter 85 Sharon, Kind?
In Huo family’s old house.
In the quiet hall, old lady was about to take her medicine when Bill strode in.
Hearing the footsteps, old lady looked up at the door, then lowered her head and took the medicine from the servant as if nothing had happened.
Bill walked over, picked up the glass on the tray and handed it to old lady.
Old lady took the medicine and took it.
After all, they were family. They couldn’t ignore each other.
Old lady breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly, “why do you come back so late?”
“Something occurred to me.” Bill sat down on the sofa.
“Go ahead.” old lady changed a more comfortable posture and looked at him calmly.
Over the years, Huo Family had developed rapidly, and Bill had changed a lot. He was a successful businessman with steady and ambition.
She knew very well that even if she let go of him tomorrow, Huo family would be under his control be better sooner or later.
However, as an elder and the grandma of Huo family, she couldn’t rest assured until he got married and had his own children.
“I’m curious. Grandma is a wise woman. What’s so special about Sharon that you like her?”
In the whole city, there were many beauties who were prettier than her. In terms of education, smart women were not rare things in this era. In any way, she was not the best choice for the future lady of Huo family.
Of course, Mrs. Huo knew the irony of the word “wise”. As time went by, he had the strength and confidence to compete with her in secret.
If it was in the past, she would definitely refute back.
But it was rare for her to be calm today, and she didn’t want to haggle with him too much.
“I’m sure that Sharon has something special about her.” old lady lowered her eyes, thought for a moment, and said thoughtfully, “it’s time for us to make it clear.”
After a short pause, she looked up and asked earnestly, “do you remember that ten years ago, I went out alone and suffered a heart attack, almost dying?”
“Yes, I do.” He nodded.
He remembered clearly that he had given an order after that time that wherever grandma went, she must be guarded by someone.
“Do you know who saved me and sent me to the hospital in the ambulance?” old lady asked again.
“Sharon?” He was skeptical.
“Exactly.” old lady nodded heavily and sighed, “I still remember that there were many people around me at that time, but none of them dared to save me. The world is getting worse and worse, and they are afraid of taking responsibility!”
“Even I I feel that my life has come to an end. It was Sharon who pushed the crowd away and saved me without hesitation. She stayed by my side, took the medicine for me, and sent me to the ambulance. Only after that did I survive and can I stay with you for so many years!”
“So what?” There was still no change on his face. He even said sarcastically, “it’s indeed precious that you don’t forget to repay your kindness. But as far as I know, the money that Sharon has deceived from you is not a small amount.”
“You brat! How dare you check my account!” old lady rolled her eyes at him and said discontentedly, “I’m not an old fool. I can give money because she deserves it. Do you think she likes the money? That’s just a way for me to keep this good daughter-in-law.”
With a sneer, he asked, “Don’t like but take it again and again?”
“You are such a stupid man. I have told you that I have to give it to her!” old lady slapped hard on the armrest of the sofa impatiently, “why do you have to look down upon Sharon?”
“Just tell the truth.” Shrugging his shoulders, Bill didn’t take it seriously.
If she can do it, why don’t she let others tell it?
Old lady glanced at him as if she was looking at an idiot. “Your eyes may be useful in doing business. They are far worse than me in judging people!”
Bill drank a few more glasses of wine at the party. As the wine was strong, he couldn’t help taking off his tie and exhaling a mouthful of stale air.
He took off his tie and pretended to be in a good mood. He said jokingly, “grandson is stupid. Grandma, please tell me.”
“Humph, I don’t think you can figure it out by yourself.” old lady raised her chin proudly.
After a pause, she leaned forward and said mysteriously, “who am I? When I was saved, I thought that she would use the excuse of saving people to entangle with Huo family. I didn’t forget to leave my phone number so that I can repay the favor in the future. We don’t owe each other.”
“But I didn’t expect that Sharon insisted that it was just a piece of cake and she didn’t have to pay much attention to it. That’s why I paid attention to her. When I got on the ambulance, I took one of her earrings. After careful consideration, I finally found her in the house of Luke!”
After saying that, old lady sat up straight again and said proudly, “if she is really as you said, she is the one who wants me pay back. Do you think I will reveal my true identity?”
“Bill, grandma has always taught you to be far-sighted. Tens of millions of dollars. You can’t even hear a sound when you buy something casually, but a good wife can’t be got from dollars. Do you understand?”
Maybe it was because he was drunk, he lowered his head and didn’t say anything. No one knew what he was thinking.
It was rare for him to be so quiet. Knowing that the situation was good, old lady hesitated for a while and said again.
“I know young people like free love, but freedom also requires two people to meet first, right? Putting aside this is Grandma’s will, don’t you want to know more about such a kind girl?”
“Sharon is sometimes a little spoiled, but no one is perfect. How dare you say that you are perfect?”
“Bill, Sharon is really a good girl. She is old now. If you really wants to give up, she will be someone else’s.”
Bill still didn’t respond, but kept frowning.
Old lady was a smart woman. If she said more, she would annoy him. So she stood up and went upstairs.
In the living room, he leaned against the sofa and closed his eyes, lost in thought. He couldn’t forget the name of Sharon until he fell asleep.

After the party, Andy sat on the sofa and rubbed her feet. Her new shoes didn’t fit her feet well, and her feet were worn out.
“Oh my God! Did that heartless boss mistreat you again?”
“No.” Andy quickly put her feet down, and then she came to her senses, “which heartless boss?”
“Who else can it be? What’s his name? Bill. Yes, it’s him!”
