Mr. CEO's Young Mistress -
Chapter 25: Sharon Andre, What’s With Your Attitude?
Sharon's brows furrowed. For some reason, she felt extremely irritated by those words.
"Selena, stop saying nonsense..." Shirley's shy voice came from behind.
"I'm not! You're going to marry Leonard sooner or later. Doesn't that make you his future wife?"
"Selena..."
"All right, all right. I know you're shy about it. I'll shut up now." Selena gave a giggle.
"Oh, you."
Sharon bit her lip to stop herself from commenting. She stood there for a few seconds, getting ahold of herself, before turning around and heading for the dining area with her head down.
Sharon was the last to enter. By then, Shirley and Selena had each taken their seats beside Leonard. At the sight of this, Sharon's footsteps slowed down.
"Over here," Paul called out to her. He raised his eyebrows as he patted the seat between him and Daniel.
Sharon made a face at him before walking over to sit between them.
Leonard was staring intensely at Sharon, and his lips were pressed into a fine line.
"Aren't you neglecting me too much, Leonard? I've been back for almost two months, but you haven't come to visit me once! I'm starting to doubt whether I'm actually your sister," Selena whined softly and looked at Leonard's indifferent face.
"Eat." That was Leonard's only reply, his voice cold.
Selena lower lip trembled, and she looked ready to burst into tears.
Shirley noticed Selena's expression and hurriedly consoled her. Shirley quickly picked up some food and placed it on Selena's plate. "Selena," Shirley patiently explained, "Your brother has to take care of the whole Lefebvre, so you should try to be more understanding. Besides, you can always come here or go to the company whenever you miss him."
Sharon hid her head in her food, pretending not to hear Shirley's tone as if she was the mistress of the house.
"Sharon, why are you only eating plain pasta?" Paul's voice suddenly boomed.
As soon as he said that, everyone turned their heads to look at Sharon in unison. Sharon was speechless.
She looked down at the pasta that was half gone, and her face immediately turned red.
After getting a grip on herself, Sharon calmly raised her head and asked Paul, "Don't you think that today's pasta is delicious?"
Paul looked at the pasta on his plate suspiciously. He picked some with his fork and put them into his mouth to taste. "Isn't it the same taste as usual?"
"No, I think this is the best pasta I've eaten," Sharon said with a straight face.
Paul reached out to touch Sharon's forehead and muttered, "Feels fine to me."
Sharon was silent, and she suppressed the urge to kick him.
Leonard continued to stare at Sharon, seeming to have lost some of the tension in his face.
Sharon felt his gaze on her but chose to ignore it.
"Hmmph! What's so special about eating plain pasta?" Selena asked scornfully and rolled her eyes.
Sharon just ignored her.
However, it wasn't because she was afraid of Selena. Quite the contrary, she knew that ignoring her would make her feel worse.
Sure enough, unable to get the response she wanted, Selena was infuriated.
Unable to reign in her temper, Selena slapped her fork onto the table with a loud clatter.
She glared at Sharon. "Sharon, what's with your attitude? Is this how you should treat your elders["
"Pfft!"
Selena hadn't finished her line when Paul spat out the wine he had just poured into his mouth. ☐☐☐☐☐
