Chapter 24: Future Wife
The corner of Leonard's mouth curled upwards.
"Come here, Sharon." Paul smiled cheekily and waved Sharon over.
"What do you want?" Sharon didn't move, her eyes staring at Paul, instantly alert.
Among these four adults, Paul was the one who loved to play pranks on her the most.
"Just come over here. I won't eat you," Paul said with a smile.
Sharon curled her lips and subconsciously turned to look at Leonard.
Leonard understood her instantly. He narrowed his eyes and patted the seat beside him.
With a smile, Sharon rushed over and plopped herself down next to Leonard.
Paul gritted his teeth and pointed indignantly at Sharon.
Sharon shrugged her shoulders and deliberately hooked her arm into Leonard's.
Paul pulled a face. "Hmmph! She's so smug just because she has someone to back her up," he snorted inwardly.
"Your birthday is next month." Leonard lowered his gaze to look at Sharon tenderly.
Sharon paused for a second, startled, and looked at him blankly. "So?"
"So we're here to discuss how we're going to celebrate it," replied Paul, crossing his legs.
"Huh?" Sharon was surprised. Her face started to blush in embarrassment. "We don't have to do anything fancy. Besides, I'm too old for something like that." "Nonsense! It's going to be a massive celebration." Paul raised his chin haughtily. "After all, it's your birthday we're talking about. The more the merrier!"
...
Sharon was caught off guard and looked at Leonard for support.
However, Leonard only gave a small smile before siding with Paul. "Paul's right. Your birthday is something to be taken seriously."
"Mm-hmm." Paul nodded in agreement vehemently.
Sharon was at a loss for words. She looked over to Oliver and Daniel, but both of them were also nodding along.
Sharon pursed her lips. She knew that it would be futile to say anything else, so in the end, she gave in. She looked at Leonard and said, "Everything will be as Master Leonard commands." The corners of Leonard's mouth curled upwards, and he gently stroked her head.
The four men proceeded to discuss holding a birthday banquet for Sharon.
The three men would come up with different ideas, and Leonard would make the final decision.
Meanwhile, Sharon sat next to Leonard, obediently, and listened to their discussion.
In the evening, Paul and the others stayed over for dinner.
As soon as everyone got seated, the sound of a car engine came from the front of the villa.
"Who is it?" Paul looked at Leonard.
Leonard frowned slightly. It seemed that he did not know who it was either.
"I'll go take a look," Sharon said softly beside Leonard.
Leonard gave her hand a squeeze before releasing it.
Sharon walked briskly to the door.
Before she reached the door, two gorgeous figures in fashionable clothes appeared at the entrance.
At the sight of them, Sharon came to a halt, her jaw clenching.
"Hello, Sharon." When Shirley saw Sharon, she pulled her arm out from Selena's hold and walked towards her with a gentle smile. Shirley gripped Sharon's hands enthusiastically. "Selena and I went shopping together this afternoon, and she decided to come to visit her brother, so here we are."
Sharon nodded. "We were just about to eat. Have you guys eaten yet?"
Shirley shook her head.
"Let's go, then," Sharon said.
Shirley turned to look at Selena, who was standing at the door. "Selena, come here."
Sharon narrowed her eyes.
"Does she think that she's the boss?" Sharon asked in her head.
Selena shot Sharon an arrogant glance before stepping forward, pulling Shirley away from her, and striding towards the dining area. "Leonard, won't you come out to greet your sister and future wife?" "Future... wife?" Sharon repeated in her head. 00000
