Chapter 263: Thinking Too Much Is Pretentious

After returning home, Tiffany collapsed on the sofa.

"It is tiring to celebrate the New Year.I won't quarrel with my mother again when I go back home."

Sharon said, "You still have time to go back now.Tomorrow is the New Year."

Tiffany refused without thinking, "Although I love my mother, I still don't want to hear her nagging.When
I find a handsome boyfriend, I'll have enough confidence to go back."

Sharon smiled and said, "If you marry a handsome young man, auntie will probably drive you out with a
broom."

Tiffany sighed, "It's really hard to please my mom."

Not long after that, the doorbell rang.

Sharon opened the door and found Trey standing outside.

Trey said, "I went to the studio and found out that you had already started your holidays ahead.I tried to
call you and Tiffany but couldn't get through, so I came here."

After a pause, he said, "Sharon, I want to discuss something with you."

When he called, Tiffany and Sharon were probably in the elevator with no signal.

Sharon took a step back and said, "Come in.’

When Trey entered, Tiffany was drinking water in the kitchen.

She was afraid that once her mouth stopped, she could not help get the two together.

Sharon poured a glass of water for Trey.



Looking at Tiffany's strange behavior, she asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

Tiffany waved her hand, "Nothing.Don't mind me."

Sharon shrugged and returned to the living room with the cup in her hand.

She placed the cup in front of Trey and sat down on the other side.

"What's up?"

Trey pursed his thin lips and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Sharon, could you please do me a
favor.’

Sharon said, "If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.I'll try my best.You helped me a
lot before."

After a few seconds, Trey slowly said, "Could you please come home with me tomorrow night?"

Sharon was slightly stunned.

Before she could get the idea, Tiffany was chocked by water and coughed a few times.

Before she said no, Trey said, "I know that this invitation is too forward, and I hesitated for a long time
before coming to see you.’

Sharon ventured, "Go back to your home?"

Trey nodded, "I'm not young anymore.My parents have been urging me to get married for the two
years.They even wanted to arrange a blind date for me.I really had no choice but to tell them that I had
a girlfriend.They asked me to invite her back tomorrow night."

Tiffany also got his idea.



He wanted Sharon to be his temporary girlfriend and celebrate the New Year with his family.

Although she just pretended to be his girlfriend, the meaning of visiting his parents would be different.

It had to be said that this excuse was perfect.

Seeing that Sharon didn't say anything, Trey added, "Sharon, I know you definitely won't agree.My
parents are old and I don't want them to worry.That was why I lied.At worst, I just tell them the truth that
I actually don't have a girlfriend and what I said before was a lie."

Hearing it, Sharon pursed her lips and she was just unable to say no.

Just now, she had said that she would definitely help if she could.

In addition, she did owe Trey many favors.

Trey continued, "Sharon, don't force yourself.It doesn't matter.I'm only asking for your opinion.If you find
it difficult, just forget it."

Sharon said, "Not difficult.It's just..."

It was just a favor.

Thinking too much is just pretentious.

Plus, it's just a way to please the old.

Sharon nodded, "Alright, I'll go back with you tomorrow."

Hearing this, Trey heaved a sigh of relief, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Then I'll pick you up tomorrow afternoon.’



Sharon said, "Should I prepare any gifts?"

"Not necessary.I will do it.’

After Trey left, Tiffany finally put down her cup and walked over from the kitchen, "You just said yes?"

Sharon said, "I ...I can't refuse."

"Yep.Trey even mentioned his parents.If I were you, I could not refuse, either.After all, all parents in the
world love and concern about their children.It's also filial piety that he wants to make his parents
happy.’’

However, if someone knew that Sharon was going to celebrate the New Year with Trey's family, he
would probably rage immediately.

Sharon took a light breath, looked at her phone and changed the topic, "Why hasn't Ruben returned
yet?"

She called him while walking towards the balcony.

Tiffany sat on the sofa and ate a grape.

She sighed silently.

Sharon stood on the balcony and waited for Ruben to answer the call.

After getting through, she asked, "Ruben, where are you?"

Ruben said, "I have something to do.There's no need to wait for me.You can have dinner first.’

With the previous lessons, Sharon did not believe him.



She frowned and asked, "What's up? Did you fight with your classmates again?"

Ruben said, "No..."

"Alright then, come back early."

"Got it."

After hanging up the phone, Sharon leaned against the railing and looked into the distance, not
knowing what she was thinking.

At the same time, at the Proctor Group, Jameson's gaze fell on Ruben's phone and he asked, "Your
sister?"

Ruben said yes.

Jameson said, "What did she say?"

"Ask me when I will go back home."

Ruben didn't want to talk more.

He just asked, "What did you say? What should I do?"

"Help me keep an eye on Daniel and see why he approaches the Beale family."

"And then?"

Jameson said in a low voice, "What? It's not easy to get useful information from him.Don't think too
much."

Ruben frowned.



But there was no denying that Jameson's words were true and Ruben could not refute them.

Ruben got up and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back."

"Wait."

Jameson stopped him and said slowly, "Does your sister have any plan for tomorrow night?"

"Have dinner at home, but my sister probably won't welcome you,’ Ruben clearly knew his intention.

Jameson curled up his thin lips, "You're still too young.If you have a girlfriend, you'll know that when a
woman says no, it actually means yes in her heart."

Ruben ignored him and directly left.

After he left, Jameson called Jacob in and said, "Make some preparations.Tomorrow night, I'll go to
Sharon's house."

Jacob ventured, "Don't you go back to the Proctor's to celebrate the New Year?"

"We are almost at swords’ points.It's not necessary to go back home and pretend we are a happy
family.’

"Yes,' Jacob said after a pause.

After a while, Jacob added, "Mr.Proctor, the Rowland family is restless.They've tried to make trouble for
Mr.Proctor several times, and we've stopped them."
