Chapter 188
Sharon looked straight at Liam, and her voice was slow and gentle as she said, "I don't know what you have been through, and I don't know what kind of hatred you have in your heart, but hatred is not a good thing. It can make you live in pain..."
Sharon pursed her lips and added, "Hatred will make you do something wrong."
For example, what he had done to Stanley, Rebecca, and Stanley's mother.
These three people might have paid a hefty price because of Liam.
It was obvious that her words had triggered Liam. His expression changed drastically. The gentleness on his face diminished and was replaced by anger, a hint of wrath flashing across his eyes. "Since you don't know what I have been through, then why should you ask me to let go and move on?"
Sharon opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Liam interjected her coldly, "I don't know how my mother died and everyone in the Jones Family is a suspect. Don't you think I should avenge this?"
Sharon was astounded.
"If it was your father who died because someone set him up, would you let it go? Would you pretend that nothing had happened and go about your life happily?"
Liam looked straight at her. "Sharon, can you do it? If you can't, don't ask me to!"
Sharon looked down and shivered slightly. "I don't want to assume something that didn't happen..."
After a pause, she added, "I can't understand the pain in your heart, but I don't agree with your current doing. If you feel that there is something peculiar with your mother's death, you can seek the
law to punish the criminal in a legal manner instead of turning yourself into a criminal..."
"Ha!" Liam sneered several times, and his eyes were full of sarcasm. "There are white and black in this world. Not all things are as simple as you think. The Jones family rules Beachmarsh City. No one can touch them."
Sharon looked up at him. "You are also part of the Jones family. I don't believe that your mother was killed by someone from the family."
"You don't believe it?" Liam's eyes were cold and cold. "On the night that my mother died, she was with Stanley's mother. That woman had been jealous of my mother and kept giving her a hard time. I couldn't find my mother at midnight so I got up to look for her, and that was when I heard my mother's voice in that woman's room. They were quarreling. Later, when I saw my mother, she was already lying in a pool of blood!"
Sharon widened her eyes in bewilderment. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
According to Hazel, Stanley's mother was a very gentle person and not the kind of person that Liam described.
It didn't seem like Liam was lying either. A trace of ferociousness filled his eyes and the blue veins popped up on his forehead. It was obvious that he was very emotional and agitated.
Sharon moved her lips. She was still taking Stanley's side. "Is it possible that there is a misunderstanding..."
"Misunderstanding? I saw it with my own eyes!" Liam stared straight at her with a bit of redness in his eyes. "Sharon, I admit that I am not a good person, but there is no good person in the Jones Family, so does Stanley!" His expression scared Sharon, yet she still tried to say good words about Stanley. "This has nothing to do with Stanley. Why did you slander him..."
Liam sneered. "You are so considerate of him. Have you ever wondered if he really cares about you?"
"He is. He likes me."
Sharon was sure about this. She could see it in his eyes.
Liam leaned over. "I am a man. I know men better than you, and I know Stanley better than you! Why does a man with such a status like him like you? He can have any woman he wants, but why does he like you? Have you ever thought about the reason behind it?"
As he got closer and closer, Sharon frowned and stepped back. "There is no reason for love. When you like someone, you just like them..."
"Huh, don't be naive. People like us have seen too many hypocritical women. Our hearts have long been numb for love, not to mention people like Stanley. How can an ordinary woman win his heart! Sharon, do you think that you are special? Do you think that you have what it takes to let Stanley fall in love with you?"
His remarks sounded so reasonable that they struck the bulls-eye in Sharon's heart.
Liam's words were actually the hidden thoughts that she had suppressed in her heart... In fact, she was self-abased in front of Stanley. The social gap between them was too big, and Sharon had always known it, but she didn't want to think about it. She thought that she would forget about it as long as she didn't think about it...
However, Liam managed to unveil something from the deepest part of her heart in just a few words.
She pursed her lips and couldn't say a word.
Liam continued to satirize her. "He is more shrewd than me. If he really wants to lie to you, you will never find it out until you die!"
Sharon felt a chill on her back.
Liam took a strand of her long hair and fidgeted it around his fingers. "Think about it. Is he worthy of your love?"
Sharon was stunned and suddenly realized something. She pushed Liam away fiercely and looked at him coldly. "Are you trying to drive a wedge between Stanley and me again?"
Liam fell to the chair after being pushed. He lowered his gaze and smiled after a while. "If the relationship between you and him is deep and solid enough, how could you be influenced by my words?"
Sharon immediately felt disgusted. "No matter what our relationship is like, you can't say things like that!"
Liam looked up at her. "But I am not wrong.
Stanley is not a simple person. I'm telling you this because I don't want you to get hurt."
"No matter what happens between him and me in the future, it's our business. Stay out of it!"
After saying this, Sharon opened the door and got out. Her hands were clenched into fists, indicating that she was very angry. She stood outside the car and looked at the man in the car. "When you saved me just now, I thought that maybe because your life experience distorted your character but you are actually very kind in nature, but I found that I was wrong."
After finishing this sentence, Sharon turned around and left.
Inside the car, Liam stared at the woman who had left. He pursed his lips, gritted his teeth, and blue veins popped up on his forehead.
Everything he had experienced in his youth was unbearable. Whenever he thought of what had happened in the past, his hatred would surge in his chest.
He had also thought about what would happen if he was not an illegitimate child. Would his fate be different from what it was now?
But there was no 'if' in life.
Looking at the woman who was walking far away, he felt a strong impulse in his heart that he pushed the door open and strode over to catch up with Sharon. He grabbed her wrist and looked straight at her, blurting, "Do you know what it feels like when an eleven-year-old child had nightmares every night? Do you know how it feels to live in fear and anxiety every day? Do you know how I feel when Stanley had his parents with him on his birthday but I could only hide in the corner and watch?"
