Mr. CEO's Young Mistress

Chapter 13: His Heart Thumped Wildly

Did that mean that he believed her?

Sharon bit her lower lip nervously and stared blankly at Leonard.

"What's wrong?" Leonard glanced at her.

Sharon immediately shook her head. "It's nothing."

......

At the main entrance of Bluesky University.

Watching the car disappear, Sharon immediately took out a phone from her pocket and called Melanie.

"Melanie, I'm at the school gate."

"I'm on my way," Melanie replied.

Sharon hung up. Her head hung low as she waited for Melanie by the side of the road. Her mind kept

going back to Leonard's expression when she had told him she was going to school for self-studying.

It seemed calm like usual, but something felt off to her.

"Sharon."

Melanie's voice came from afar.

Sharon looked up to see Melanie riding an electric scooter towards her.

Sharon smiled as she watched the scooter stop in front of her.

"What do you think? Isn't it cool?" Melanie proudly patted the dashboard and asked, raising her

eyebrows.

Sharon just gave a nonchalant chuckle.

"Humph!" Melanie rolled her eyes and passed a helmet to Sharon.

Sharon accepted it. She put it on and got onto the scooter.

Melanie started the scooter and said, "The rest of the class already headed out. I called our class

monitor just now, and he said that they were almost there."

"Alright." Sharon nodded. "Melanie, I didn't bring anything with me. Should we buy some things before

we go?"

"Don't worry about it. The others already bought all the ingredients for the barbeque. So, bringing

yourself is more than enough." Melanie's voice rang out clearly over the wind.

Sharon blinked. "Okay, then."

......

By the time Sharon and Melanie arrived at their destination, everyone else had started the barbeque.

It was Sharon's first time participating in this type of activity, so she was feeling excited.

"Let's go." Melanie pulled Sharon towards the small river behind the asphalt road.

Sharon's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hey, you're here." Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

As soon as they arrived, Simon, who wore a white shirt and black pants, trotted towards her with a

smile.

Sharon stood where she was and tilted her head to look at Simon, eyes bright.

Melanie nudged Sharon with her elbow before letting go of her hand and running to the barbeque

area.

Sharon glanced at Melanie, her ears slightly red.

Simon only looked at her and said, "Let's go to the barbecue."

Sharon turned around to look at him. Under his sharp gaze, she could not help but nod her head.

Simon smiled, exposing his adorable, pointy canines.

"Why are you wearing your school uniform?"

As they walked side-by-side towards the barbeque grill, Simon scratched his head and looked at

Sharon.

Um...

"Are we not allowed to?" Sharon pursed her lips and looked at him.

Simon inspected her from top to bottom. In the end, he stared at her and said seriously, "I think it's

fine."

"Pfft!"

Sharon was amused, her eyes crinkling at the edges.

Simon looked into her smiling eyes, and his heart began to thump wildly.

"You look pretty when you smile," Simon said in a low voice.

Sharon's red ear tips flushed even more.

At that moment, a black SUV was parked by the side of the asphalt road. The man in the car was

silent, his cold eyes regarding the couple who stood by the side of the creek.
