Wallace’s father nodded approvingly and said, “That’s right. Marrying Crystal will be beneficial to our family. Your grandmother also likes that girl very much, and Crystal has a rich family background. She can be considered a strong ally of our Harris family.”

“This is my own business. I already said that I won’t divorce Sharon.”

“Are you crazy? Why won’t you listen to me?”

The two of them were still persuading their son when Sharon pushed the door open and entered.

Upon seeing her return, his parents were completely displeased.

Wallace’s mother, June, had an expression that was especially bad. Her face was full of disdain and coldness as she said, “Tsk tsk, why didn’t the garbage stay in the garbage dump? Why did she come back to embarrass herself?”

Sharon bit her lower lip lightly. She knew that June had always looked down on her and felt that she didn’t have a strong background or marry in with a rich dowry.

What would June think if she were to find out that her daughter-in-law had become the Sullivan Group’s CEO and had ten billion dollars?

However, Sharon didn’t say anything. She didn’t intend on letting anyone know her identity for the time being. After all, she had never returned to the Xavier family and didn’t know what the family was like.

If her identity was exposed, it would inevitably cause a lot of trouble. Therefore, she had to keep a low profile!

Furthermore, although June had a strange temper and didn’t like her, she was still her mother-in-law for the sake of her reputation.

Sharon lowered her head and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Dad, Mom. I’ve caused you trouble today.”

“You think it’s just trouble? You just want our family to be embarrassed in front of the other members of the Harris family. Sharon, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but how can a girl be so shameless? I hope you realize the gap between us soon and quickly get lost from the Harris family to make space for Crystal.”

When Wallace heard her mother’s words, he frowned and said in a sad tone, “Mom, Sharon is your daughter-in-law.”

“You must’ve been under her spell!” June’s tone was filled with disappointment. “I don’t have such a poor daughter-in-law. Get out! Get as far away as possible!”

Wallace looked at Sharon and urged, “Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and go back to your room.”

Sharon glanced at the man beside her. For the first time, she felt that he was actually a little warm.

But the next second, June glared at her and shouted, “Hurry up and go up! Otherwise, I’ll get someone to break your legs immediately!”

After returning to her room, Sharon heaved a sigh of relief.

She had been married to Wallace for five years, but they never had a married life. Wallace slept in the master bedroom while she slept on the small bed in the study room.

That night, Sharon found it hard to sleep. This isn’t a movie, so how could something like this happen?

She was so shocked that she still didn’t know what to do.

She had just covered herself with the blanket when there was a knock on the door.

Without waiting for her reply, Wallace walked in. “How’s Uncle Smith’s condition? There’s a million dollars on this card; take it to the hospital tomorrow.”

Wallace stared at Sharon, who was wrapped up tightly, and actually found her cute.

Sharon shook her head. “No need. Someone has already paid Uncle Smith’s bill for him to continue his special care treatment.”

“Really?” Wallace frowned slightly. Sharon doesn’t have a job and usually stays at home to take care of the family. Her friends don’t have that much money either. Who helped her?

Only then did Wallace realize that he knew too little about his wife.

“Yeah.” Sharon gripped the corner of the blanket tightly with one hand. “Uncle Smith is a good person; he took care of others his whole life and even helped many people. Good things come to good people. Now, he can undergo his liver operation and can even participate in the experimental treatments for leukemia.”

Wallace nodded. “That’s good. Rest early.”

Sharon’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her clear eyes were searching. “You haven’t been resting well recently? Did something happen in the company?”

Wallace didn’t expect his wife, whom he had neglected for a long time, to see something that his parents did not.

“If the company wants to expand their business, we will need to collaborate with the Sullivan Group. However, the Harris Group has just entered the construction period and isn’t powerful enough. It’ll take some time before the other party will get back to us.” For some reason, Wallace felt like something was stuck in his throat while discussing this matter with his wife.

“The Harris Group and Sullivan Group aren’t in a collaboration?” Sharon found it a little strange. Every time Madam Harris talked about the Harris Group’s collaboration partners, she was like a proud peacock. She didn’t expect that the latter couldn’t even control a New York company.

“The Harris Group is just starting out, so the Sullivan Group wouldn’t be interested..”
