The Heiress Strikes Back

363 The Fireworks Show

Caleb yawned lazily and sobered up. He looked up at the vast starry night sky, and the red liquid in his hand moved slightly.

Caleb drank half a glass in one gulp and glanced at Sharon. His eyes seemed to be filled with ruins, and he looked abnormally tired.

Sharon sat a distance away from Caleb. After all, she couldn’t completely trust the man in front of her. In addition, it wasn’t convenient for her to escape now, so she could only keep a distance.

She raised her head to look at the moon hanging in the sky. She had once wanted to live a good life with Wallace. When her husband had made up for the wedding he owed her, she even felt very happy. However, it was only now that she understood that their relationship had always been hanging midair. When they encountered a problem, their relationship would suddenly fall and break into pieces.

“Do you know what constellation that is?” The weather was very good today, so the stars in the sky were abnormally obvious.

Sharon glanced at Caleb. “I don’t believe in horoscopes.”

As if he didn’t hear Sharon’s words, Caleb continued, “That’s Scorpio over there-it’s rare to see it in the city. Fortunately, we’re in the suburbs, and the weather is good. Scorpio is the representative of snakes; it represents the highest intelligence and efficiency. What’s your horoscope?”

Hearing Caleb explain it to her seriously, Sharon couldn’t help but frown. I don’t care about horoscopes. I just want to go back as soon as possible.

Sitting on the roof of the car, drinking red wine, and looking at the stars. To think that this guy could think of this.

“I don’t know what my horoscope is either. Didn’t I say that I don’t believe in that thing?” Sharon also took a sip of the wine. No wonder some people always want to drink when they are down. When they swallow the wine, they feel all the pain and melancholy go down with it.

“I didn’t believe horoscopes at first, but sometimes, you have to believe these things.” Caleb’s gaze landed on Sharon. His eyes were misty and illusory as if they carried a heavy secret.

Sharon knew that he was a man with a story, but she wasn’t interested in other people’s soul-stirring things.

Just as Sharon was thinking of a reason to leave, her phone suddenly rang. She quickly picked it up and realized that it was Whitney.

“Hehe...” Whitney-who was on the other end of the call-didn’t seem to have sobered up yet. Sharon could even hear Yumi telling her to be careful. “Sharon, where are you? Let me tell you-I’m the dance queen! Hahaha, let me tell you, don’t be sad. The people in the casting selection are all big idiots. When I have the ability, I’ll definitely deal with all of them. ”

Whitney spoke passionately.

On the other end of the call, Yumi asked, “Sharon, where are you? We’re already out. I don’t know how to drive, so I dragged her out first. I thought of calling a car by the road to send her back. I wonder if I can find her place.”

“Both of you, please be careful. I’ll send you Whitney’s nearest address later.”

After Sharon hung up, Caleb’s glass was already empty. He placed the glass beside him and looked at Sharon with a deep gaze. “What’s wrong? Are your friends anxiously asking you to leave too? But the real show hasn’t started~”

Hearing his joking words, Sharon became nervous for no reason. “What show?”

“It’s so lively here today; it’s not enough to just watch the stars. I wonder if you like to watch fireworks?” Caleb smiled mysteriously, making Sharon instantly feel that something was wrong.

“You prepared a fireworks show?” Just as Sharon asked, she felt that she was too stupid. How could someone like Caleb have such a romantic mood?

Caleb poured himself another glass of wine and asked with a smile, “Do you think the person who organized this ball is an ordinary businessman?”

“I’ve never thought of it that way. The people I recognize here are of certain statuses, and some are popular celebrities. Hence, they’re either rich or noble. If the person who organized this ball is an ordinary businessman, he definitely wouldn’t be able to invite these people,” Sharon replied seriously.

“You’ve met Wally, so you should know how I was imprisoned, right?”

Sharon replied casually, “He was already half-dead when I saw him. He didn’t have time to tell me about you. Besides, if you hadn’t kidnapped me, how would Wally know that we knew each other?”
