Chapter 355
Holding me in his arms quite tightly, Shelton was increasing his strength little by little, making my body attached to that of his closely.
I could sense the shallow scent of alcohol in his breath.
He was drunk.
Feeling a little nervous, I said, "Because I'm not sure...”
"Then you have to tell me at least. Otherwise, I'll think that you don't trust me and that you are even..." Shelton paused for a moment before adding, "On guard against me."
What he had said was right. I was indeed on guard against him.
At the first beginning, thinking that I would leave him, I didn't tell him anything about this matter.
But now that we were together. I told him the ins and outs.
I shook my head, "No, I won't do that again."
After hearing that, Shelton looked somewhat relaxed. Suddenly, he lowered his head, pressed his thin lips on my lips, and began to kiss me little by little.
He kissed me quite gently and lightly the same way as a dragonfly skimmed the surface of a stream. At the very first beginning, his kiss was a light one. Gradually, he kissed me more and more fervently.
Only after kissing me bits by bits tentatively did he kiss me more fervently.
Feeling tense, I disliked Shelton's kissing in my heart. Thinking that he should have kissed Emily like this as well, I was scrupulous about it.
However, I didn't want to say it. Once I did, with Shelton's personality, he would naturally say that he would never touch Emily.
In that case, after that...
I passively put up with his kissing.
"Ahem. Ahem." Bache's voice rang from the side.
Shelton stopped kissing me. And the two of us looked over.
Bache spread out his hands and said, "Go ahead. Go ahead."
After that, he left.
However, given his disturbance, no way that Shelton would continue kissing me.
However, after Bache walked
over, Shelton lowered his head and looked at me with a trace of warmth in his eyes, "Have you thought it over? When are you going to accept me?"
"I..."
"Forget it." Shelton snapped, "If I knew that you wanted to think about it for a more while, the kiss just now has enlightened me."
I lowered my head and said nothing.
After that, Shelton followed me into the private box.
The ones in the box played cards while drinking.
After they were done having fun, the party was over. I followed Shelton to go out. Thinking that the social engagement party today would be over like this, Shelton suddenly stopped James ahead of us and said, "Mr. James."
Upon hearing that Shelton's called out to him, James dared not neglect him. He immediately turned around and asked hurriedly, "What is the matter, Mr. Shelton?" This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"Well, is it convenient to occupy some of your time?" Shelton had always been quite polite as he spoke.
However, with his status, he naturally wouldn't allow James to refuse him.
"Sure."
James nodded and glanced at me with a flash of uneasiness in his eyes.
I guessed he had known what Shelton was going to say.
Going to the side, Shelton directly asked James, "Mr. James, I heard from my girlfriend that a lady from the Reid family, that is, your sister, had died a few years ago?"
"Ah... yes..." There was a hint of anxiety in James' expression when Shelton mentioned this.
I could vaguely see that there seemed to be some thin sweat on James' forehead as well.
Shelton asked as if nothing had happened, "How did she die?"
"Oh, as for this..."
In the business field, Shelton and James were engaged in different aspects. Even so, between them, the one that was in charge of more capital naturally had more say.
"Hmm? Is it inconvenient for you to say it?" Hearing that Shelton said so, I afraid that he would add, "In that case, then forget it."
Fortunately, he didn't say it.
At this time, almost everyone had left. Only the three of us were in the empty corridor.
And Bache went out to get his car.
Knowing that if he didn't say it, he couldn't leave,
James directly said, "Alas! It's a shame. Back then, there was a policy for birth control from the central government that each family could only have two children. After giving birth to me, my parents wanted another boy, only to deliver a girl instead. So they sent her away and had another boy, that was, my younger brother who fails me so much."
It turned out that James had a younger brother.
Compared to others, his younger brother indeed failed him. I had heard that he was a parasite.
"And then?" Hearing so, Shelton looked indifferent and disinterested.
Even so, he continued to ask James.
He did so on my behalf.
Knowing that Shelton was asking on my behalf, James said to me, "I hadn't seen my sister for years. She suddenly came back one day, only to be with a big belly. Well, she was an untouched virgin. Besides, for no reason, she seemed to be somewhat disoriented. Speaking strange words from time to time, she seems to have gone crazy!"
I asked him this time, "And then?”
What James had told so far matched with what I had heard before.
James raised his head to look at me and then at Shelton.
Shelton looked at him, saying, "I can authorize you to be an agent for the drug we recently released..."
When James heard so, his eyes lit up. And he added, "At that time, my parents wanted to drive her away. It was unknown whether it was because her delivery date was due or the fetus was disturbed. Unexpectedly, she was going to deliver the baby that night. My parents had no choice but to send her to the hospital. Unfortunately, her stomach failed her. She delivered a pair of girls instead."
While saying that his sister had delivered a pair of girls, James looked disdained.
It could be seen that the Reid family valued the male child only!
I held Shelton's arm hard and tried to control my emotions, preventing myself from judging James. Instead, I asked in a kind tone, "And then?"
"As for what happened next, I don't know either. I've never seen either of the girls anyway," said James.
I asked, "What about your sister?"
As James heard my questions, he raised his head, looking annoyed. It was clear that he didn't want to say anything more.
But I could sense from eevery action of his....
Not only did his sister was alive but he knew
where she was.
Shelton wasn't in a hurry. He slowly opened his mouth, "In fact, speaking of the dealership of this drug, across the whole country, there is at least..."
"Well, my sister was slow-witted. My parents took her girls away and abandoned them, stimulating her in an instant. Then she was more out of her mind and scratched my mother's face, making it covered with bruises! So my parents sent her to a mental hospital!"
James couldn't hold it in any longer and blurted it out in an instant.
A few short sentences of his made me incomparably upset in my heart.
"It turns out that my mother had experienced these.”
Then who on earth is my irresponsible father? According to what Ryan said, my mother was beautiful and smart. When she left Archaic Architecture Sect, she was a normal person."
"How come she went crazy after returning to City Y?"
I asked, "Which mental hospital did they sent her to?"
James waved his hand, "I sincerely don't know this. That's all I know. I've said everything that I can say. As for others, I have no idea about them at all!" "Okay." Shelton nodded, 'TH ask my assistant to contact you."
In other words, Shelton was going to authorize the dealership to James.
Upon hearing this, Shelton smiled happily, "Thank you, Mr. Shelton."
After that, he left.
I knew that Shelton surely could make a lot of money with the dealership of the drug and that by authorizing the dealership to James, he certainly would suffer great losses.
Feeling a little embarrassed, I looked up at him and said, "Thank you for helping me."
Hearing my words, he bowed his head, leaned over, and kissed lightly on my lips with a smile in his eyes, "If you want me to kiss you, say it directly."
