Mr. CEO's Young Mistress novel Chapter 36

Sharon and Melanie jumped before turning around, confused.

Sharon's eyes went first to Simon, who was sweating profusely. They then shifted to Selena, who emerged from behind him, followed closely by Shirley. 

Selena's voice had also surprised Simon, and he turned to look at the two ladies. 

"Sh*t!" Melanie cursed softly. "What are they doing here?"

Sharon's jaw clenched. "I want to know that too," she thought. 

"Sharon Andre! How dare you not greet us?" sneered Selena, standing in front of Sharon haughtily with narrowed eyes. 

Melanie rolled her eyes, annoyed.

Everywhere the youngest child of the Lefebvre family went, she gave off the feeling of being a snuck-up and conceited brat who always looked down on everyone else. 

Sharon's face was impassive. "What are you doing here?" she asked calmly, her voice void of any emotions. 

...

However, Sharon's indifferent tone irked Selena, who scowled. "Why do I need to explain anything to you?"

"Alright, then!" Sharon snorted to herself silently.

She shrugged and said, "Goodbye."

With that, Sharon dragged Melanie with her to leave. 

"Sharon Andre! What's with your attitude? I haven't finished speaking!" Selena leaped up, blocking Sharon's path, and pulled her back roughly, snarling. 

Selena hated this face of Sharon's the most!

Nothing she ever said or did seemed to provoke any reaction from her. 

In the end, she merely felt like a clown. 

Selena's face darkened, seething. "If it hadn't been for my brother, do you think you'd still be here, living such a good life? What an ungrateful wretch!" 

"That's enough, Selena! You're taking it too far!" Sharon glared at her. "I don't talk back because I don't want to fight, not because I'm afraid. But that doesn't mean that my benignity is endless, so don't push me! I would also like to remind you that this is a university, so please behave yourself!"

...

"How dare you act so arrogantly!" Selena fumed.

With just a few words, Sharon got Selena's blood boiling. 

It did not matter if Sharon ignored her, Selena would lose her temper either way.

...

...

Giving Selena the cold shoulder, Sharon dragged Melanie along. 

"Sharon! Stop right there! Sharon Andre!" Selena started to go after her before remembering that Shirley was standing behind her, and halted. Displeased, she gritted her teeth and stomped her feet like a child, her eyes staring holes into Sharon's retreating figure. 

...

Shirley had been quietly watching their quarrel from the sidelines. 

When Selena angrily turned back to her, Shirley quickly hid the animosity in her eyes and gave Selena a helpless look. 

"Say, how can there be someone as shameless as her? Everything she has right now is all thanks to our family, but she acts like she owns it all. Ugh. I get so pissed off whether I see her!" Selena held Shirley's hand and scowled. 

...

In the past, Shirley would have jumped out to soothe Selena's ruffled feathers. Today, however, she merely said in a nonchalant tone, "That's because Leonard adores her. Why should she care what others think when she still has him to back her up? Otherwise, I bet she wouldn't be this arrogant."

...

Shirley knew Selena despised Sharon because of how much Leonard adored her. 

Ever since Leonard brought Sharon home, he'd more or less completely forgotten about his sister. 

He would always forget her birthday, but never Sharon's. Even if he was out of town, he would still rush back for Sharon's birthday. 

...

The more Selena thought about it, the more infuriated she got.

...

If it weren't for Nathan and Rosamond who treated her so well, she would have suspected that she was actually the adopted child instead!

Selena may have not spoken aloud, but the resentment on her face spoke volumes.

Shirley knew that if Sharon had been standing in front of them, Selena would not hesitate to tear her apart!

Shirley's lips curled into a cold smirk, her eyes venomous.

Simon, who was not far behind them, frowned slightly. His lips pressed together into a thin line as complex emotions flitted in his eyes. 

"I guess not all rumours about Sharon being adored by the Lefebvre family are true..." Simon thought to himself. 

Simon felt his a tightening in his chest and his hands clenched into fists, his eyes flashing with determination. 

Eventually, Simon narrowed his eyes on the two ladies and turned to leave, his body tense. 

......

"Are you alright?"

Melanie went over to her seat, looking at Sharon, whose jaw clenched slightly.

Sharon stilled for a moment before shaking her head. "I'm used to it."

It wasn't the first time Selena has acted like that. 

However, seeing Shirley reminded her of something and rubbed her the wrong way.

"Your family's little darling's temper is as bad as always. To be honest, I'm a little worried about her future," Melanie said with a straight face.

Sharon glared at her. "First, she's not from my family. Second, I'd say that you're worrying too much!"
