Watch Out, CEO Daddy! novel Chapter 6

Suddenly hearing Howard's voice, Sharon was stunned. Scenes of her wedding on that day began to flood her mind. Howard's cruelty and lack of belief in her had made Sharon feel rather disappointed.

Howard placed a packet of documents on the office desk. Upon lowering his head, he saw the lady who was sitting in the chair.

His expression changed for the worst, and his pupils shrunk. "You… Sharon?!" Her appearance caught him by surprise. 'She's back?'

Sharon did not let out a sound. Instead, it was Simon, who was sitting on the executive chair, who glanced at both of them with an intriguing look. "What's wrong? You guys know each other?"

"Not at all!" It sounded almost as if Sharon had replied without thinking twice.

Howard remained silent for a moment before he let out a cold laugh. "Indeed we don't know each other. The Sharon whom I once knew died a long time ago."

Sharon finally raised her gaze and glared at him. They both exchanged gazes, and the atmosphere tensed up.

In the end, Sharon managed to compose herself. It was her first day reporting to the company. Nothing good would come out of it if she were to have a huge fight with Howard.

She pursed her lips and turned away. She made it look like she did not know him at all.

"Who is she, uncle?" Howard continued to stare at her. 'Why is she here?'

Simon had long ago started paying attention to both of their reactions. Nevertheless, he acted as if he knew nothing and said faintly, "She’s our company’s newly hired designer."

'Designer? She has such an ability now?

'It has been five years since we last met, yet she's still the same as that year.' Howard had thought that Sharon would be living a miserable life. He had never expected her to be living her life better than before. She was even more charming now as well.

Howard secretly clenched his fists.

"You may leave if there's nothing else." Simon took over the documents that Howard had come to deliver.

Howard retrieved his gaze. His tense expression made it obvious that he was suppressing himself from doing something. Nevertheless, he said no more and merely nodded to Simon before taking huge strides to leave the scene.

Hearing that Howard's footsteps were now further away, Sharon's anxiousness finally relieved itself.

She had not expected her new boss to be Howard's uncle.
