Chapter 230
“He wouldn’t stand here and look at me and Brandon forever, right? Sharon thought and then shook her head.
“Edwin isn’t such a boring person. He’s probably waiting for someone. With the guess in mind, she couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to him anymore and walked on.
As soon as Sharon reached Edwin, he tilted his leg and stopped leaning against the railing, standing in front of her.
His deep gaze landed on Sharon. “That man is not the one for you,” Edwin said.
Sharon was confused. Although she had no intention of being in a relationship with Brandon, it was uncomfortable for her that Edwin blatantly talked about her privacy.
A faint smile appeared on Sharon’s pretty face. “Mr. Stanley, you’ve crossed the line.”
Edwin looked at Sharon silently. Although she was smiling, there was no warmth in her eyes. Instead, she felt offended.
Because of what I said about that man?‘ he wondered.
Although Edwin did not know Brandon’s name, he remembered Brandon. Back in Pinevale, Brandon had been chasing after Sharon like a shadow, Now, he followed her to Rosaria City.
Given what she said now and how she allowed him to hold her hand just now, Edwin felt that she had feelings for Brandon.
“That guy is mediocre in every way, his looks and job. What exactly does she see in him?‘ Edwin wondered.
The more Edwin thought about it, the more unhappy he felt. His face was so grim that the atmosphere became oppressive
Sharon felt it and couldn’t help but shiver. Why do I feel a chill?‘ she wondered.
Initially, she thought that Edwin would leave without a word like usual. Unexpectedly, he was still standing in front of her like a statue.
After a moment, his cold voice came, “I just want to remind you that Irene lives with you. It’s inappropriate for you to marry a man who hasn’t been married.”
“That’s rich. He’s trying to say that I’m a divorcee not worthy of Brandon, Sharon thought.
Fortunately, she did not have feelings for Brandon. Otherwise, his words would have been a blow to her ego, but it still made her uncomfortable.
Sharon did not want to say another word to him. She walked past him and left.
When Sharon arrived at Alanna’s office, she was lying in her chair, her fair and tender legs crossed on the desk. With one hand on the side of her head, Alanna was lazily looking at something in her other hand.
When she saw Sharon, she walked over with a smile. “Have you heard? Tilda hasn’t been having a good time recently. Her manager ignored her and the newbies snatched away all her resources. She fought with the newbies and made a fool of herself. Someone filmed it and posted it online. Her remaining nerd fans all switched sides and unfollowed her on Twitter.
Over the past few days, Sharon had been busy with the platform. In addition, the entertainment section of Tilda’s stories was not her interest, so she did not know.
Alanna held her phone up and showed Sharon the video.
Sharon lowered her head and saw Tilda in the video: Tilda did not care about her image and was wrestling with

someone.
Tilda was no longer the elegant lady she used to be. In the video, she was a shrew.
The video provided a different interpretation of Tilda. Her image was ruined, and the Internet was filled with criticism against her.
“Her acting skills aren’t good to begin with. Now that she’s caused such a mess, she’s digging her own grave, Alanna remarked with a snort.
Tilda had done too many disgusting things in the past. Alanna could not bring herself to pity her at all. Instead, Alanna gloated.
“What’s happened to Edwin recently? Tilda is feeling so aggrieved but he hasn’t shown his face. Is he going to let others scold her like this and let her reputation sink?”
At the mention of Edwin, Sharon instinctively thought of what he had just said outside. She experienced another fit of anger but did not show it on her face. She only said indifferently, “Jasmine has found the girl from the Reilly family in Seaston City for him. He should be getting married soon.”
“Oh, the Reilly family is so rich, Alanna said with a mocking expression on her face. “No wonder he doesn’t care about Tilda anymore. He’s afraid that the Reilly family will be upset. How ambitious Edwin is. He’s already doing well in Rosaria City. His assets have doubled every year. He even wants to marry the girl from the Reilly family. Does he aim to be the richest man in the country?”
“Whether he aims to be the richest man in the country or the world, it has nothing to do with me,” Sharon replied, showing no interest. She took the contract on the table beside her and looked at it. “How are the details of the collaboration with Brandon?”
“It’s all done. After the legal department reviews it one last time, we can tell him to come to sign it,” Alanna said, her eyes sparkling and looking at Sharon. After he learned about our relationship, he asked a lot about you. He even said that he pursued you crazily back then. Unfortunately, you didn’t have feelings for him. I think he’s honest and trustworthy. Are you really not going to consider it?”
Alanna and Sharon had only met in high school. Brandon didn’t go to the same school as Sharon. So back then all his courtship remained within Pinevale, and Alanna didn’t know of Brandon’s existence.
With Sharon’s current net worth, Brandon was not a good match for her.
She was capable and didn’t need to live off men at all. Sharon only wanted a considerate and believed Brandon would suit Sharon’s needs.
meticulous man. Alanna
“Stop messing around.” Sharon slapped the contract on Alanna. “I have enough trouble to deal with. Spare me, okay?” Brandon’s relentless pursuit was enough of a headache. Edwin even mocked Sharon for it.
