Mr. CEO's Young Mistress novel Chapter 2

In a blink of an eye, 15 years had passed, Sharon was now 20 years old.

"Here you go." Melanie Faure, Sharon's best friend, roughly slapped a peach-heart-shaped letter on top of her textbook. 

Sharon rolled her eyes and moved the letter aside. She raised her face to look at Melanie and snorted. "Go ahead. What did you get from him this time?"

Erm...

Melanie smiled and said, "Well, nothing much. It's just a month of breakfast. Haha..."

The corner of Sharon's mouth twitched. "You, a daughter of the Faure family, bought over with just a month's worth of breakfast? Couldn't you at least have asked for more?"

Melanie shrugged. "How many ladies from wealthy families do you see working part-time jobs to earn their living expenses?"

Sharon frowned, her tone softening. "You didn't receive any living expenses again for this month?"

"Let's not talk about this. The school's Autumn field trip will be starting next week. You've missed the trips for the last two years. It's already our last year at university. You won't sit this one out again, will you?" Melanie asked. She was resting her chin on Sharon's arm, trying to read her expression. 

...

Sharon stared at Melanie for a while and suddenly sighed. "I don't call the shots around here. I'll have to ask for permission."

"You poor thing." Melanie caressed Sharon's head and looked at her sympathetically.

"Stop it." Sharon swatted her hand away.

......

At the Coral Pavilion.

Sharon got out of the car with her schoolbag flung over her shoulder. Her head was low as she walked towards the villa, pondering something. 

Crash!

"Ouch!"

Sharon's head suddenly knocked into a hard surface, and she held her head in pain. 

"Hey, Sharon! You all right?"

Although it was supposed to sound apologetic, she could still hear the laughter in his voice. 

Sharon raised her head and glared at him angrily. She clenched her teeth. "Just go away!"

With that, Sharon pulled a long face and walked into the villa.

"Sharon, I was only joking. Don't be angry, okay?"

Paul Nelson stood his ground and grinned as he called out towards Sharon, who had her back towards him. 

Suddenly, Sharon stopped in her tracks. 

Paul just looked at Sharon curiously.

Sharon slowly turned around, a bright smile blooming on her face.
