Chapter 15: Unprepared for a Punch in the Face
After a while, he called Jacob in and said, “Go ask Shawn Smith about what had happened back
then.”
“Got it.” Jacob nodded and left.
He only knew that Sharon needed money, and that was why she had set him up.
But he had never expected that all these things had happened before.
If Sharon had known that the sponsor of the Emerging Designer Competition was the Proctor
Group, then it was no coincidence that she approached him.
In the staff lounge of the Twilight Club.
A few waiters were between shifts when one of them said, “Hey, I saw Sheila coming.She has been
frequenting here lately.”
“Apparently, she comes for someone.It’s abnormal if she doesn’t show up.”
Another said, “Did you see what she had done at the gate of the Twilight Club a while ago? Sheila is
really something.She not only got a baby with Mr.Proctor but showed it off to Mrs.Proctor.She was
so loud as if she was afraid that others wouldn’t know that she was the other woman.’
In the corner, someone got stunned.
“That depends on who her paramour is.Now that she has hooked up with Mr.Proctor and got his
baby, she surely wants to take the place of Mrs.Proctor and marry up by any means.Once she
marries into the Proctor family, she is the real ugly duckling.She just got that.”

“Strangely, Mr.Proctor often comes to Twilight Club with his friends, but I’ve never seen him bring
Mrs.Proctor here.Are they of poor relationship?”
“You don’t know it.Mrs.Proctor married him by all means back then.I heard from the previous
manager that she was sold into Twilight Club and somehow hooked up with Mr.Proctor.Later on,
she forced him to marry her with her child as a threat.The Proctors did not want to make things
worse for their reputation, so they let her marry into their family.Later, the child was gone for some
unknown reason.’
“Yes.I’ve heard about this too.
I’ve also heard that Mr.Proctor is particularly annoyed with her and usually won’t even touch
her.Otherwise, how come she hasn’t had a child after three years of marriage? The most important
thing for the gentry is to have children.And now that Sheila is pregnant, I think she’s losing her
position too.”
Bang! The locker door was forcefully shut, making a loud noise.
A gloomy-faced youth walked out of the corner and glanced coldly at them before leaving with an
expressionless face.
Someone muttered discontentedly, “How could he be so angry as if someone had offended him?”
“He’s just part-time.He thinks he’s vital simply because the manager likes him.”
“Tell you what, I heard from the manager that he is the provincial topper this year.Besides, he’s
handsome, so he’s inevitably a bit crazy.”
Ruben walked to the bar.
The manager was arranging for someone to deliver the drinks to Jameson’s private room.
Ruben went ahead and said, “I’ll go.”
Another colleague happened to have a bit of diarrhea, so he gave him the stuff, “Ruben, I heard that
Mr.Proctor is a bit upset today.Be careful.Just come out directly after delivering the drinks.”
“I see.”
When Ruben opened the door, Sheila was sitting beside Jameson and was about to lean against
him.
Ruben placed the wine on the table with a thud and said in an unpleasant voice, “Here’s your
wine.”Sheila was shocked by him and stopped.
Ever since the last time, Sheila had never seen Jameson again.
Today, when she finally heard that he had come to Twilight Club, she rushed over.
She still didn’t know what Jameson meant.
He had clearly given her a chance to be by his side before, but there was no further progress apart
from simply standing by him.
After the fake pregnancy was exposed last time, Sheila originally thought that Jameson would be
furious.
But he only warned her a few times and gave her those resources, as usual, proving that she still
had a chance.
Now she was the butt of jokes out there, being said that she was just a spur-of-the-moment object
for Jameson, and she was not qualified to sleep with him.
Therefore, she had to make some progress today.
After being startled by Ruben, she also restrained her temper.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe only softly said to Jameson, “Mr.Proctor, you seem to be a little drunk.Why don’t I send you
back …Ouch!”
Sheila was poured all over by the wine in the glass.
She jumped up, screaming, “What are you doing!”
Ruben’s expression remained unchanged.
He just picked up the cup that had been poured on the table.
“Sorry, I didn’t hold it tightly.”
Sheila saw that the waiter was quite handsome and could not vent her anger.
Just as she was about to go to the bathroom, William, who adopted a “wait-and-see” attitude,
suddenly said, “Why are you so angry? I saw it just now.”
“Oh, I did it on purpose.”
This time, not only was Sheila furious, even Jameson gently looked up at him.
Sheila scolded, “Are you insane? Did I offend you?”
“Who ordered that you must offend me before I can cause trouble for you?”
“You…
Sheila was so angry that she was speechless fora moment.
Her face was blue with anger.
At this time, the manager heard the noise and hurriedly came over to apologize, “Mr.Proctor, Miss
Strauss, I’m really sorry.This is our new part-time worker.He doesn’t know the rules and thus
offended you.”
“He doesn’t know the rules? Did he really behave in that way? He said it himself that he did it on
purpose.If you don’t give me an explanation today, it wont simply pass!”
