Chapter 431: Talk Him into A Relationship

The location was set at a private club.

Mr.Jones agreed instantly when Sharon mentioned the plan.

When Sharon was about to leave the house, Taloin and Natalia Beale were still in their rooms.So she
noted down the address and handed it to a servant.

Since Talon Beale had agreed on it last night under such circumstances, there was no way he would
change his mind.

Sharon headed straight to Ruben's school.

He got her call and came to the gate, "What are you doing here?"

Sharon said, "No classes today, right?"

"It's weekend.Of course no.’

"Great.Hop on.I have somewhere to take you."

Ruben was about to say something but he stopped himself.

On the way, Sharon asked, "How are you and Giana?"

Ruben panicked, "What?"

"You went to her place last week, didn't you? Made any progress?"

Ruben, "....."

He began talking after a long while, "What progress is there to make?"



He had never thought about it.

No one knew her brother like she did.

She immediately noticed that he was down and she said, "Don't lose your heart.She never said she
didn't like someone younger than her, did she? I'll ask around for ya.What do you say?"

"Forget it."

Ruben looked outside the window, "I'm not even thinking about her."

"Then what are you thinking about? School?"

She felt like a bad role model after she had uttered the words.

Ruben was a straight-A-student and she wanted to talk him into a relationship.

"....” Ruben said, "No, I have other things to worry about.’

"So what! Studying hard doesn't mean you can't have a relationship.And you like her!"

Ruben finally move his vision from the window, "How do you know!"

Sharon rubbed her eyes and said, "Even Jameson Proctor can tell.I'm your sister.Of course I know.’

"You didn't tell her, right?"

"Of course no! That's why I'm asking you right now."

Ruben recalled the last few meetings with Giana and replied, "Let's talk about it later.’

Sharon raised her eyebrows, "Fine."



Ruben glanced outside and asked, "Where are we going?"

"To see Talon and Natalia Beale.’ Ruben frowned, "What for?"

Sharon answered in no hurry, "I asked Natalia Beale to apologize to you and they agreed."

"You don't have to do this for me, as long as....."

He couldn't utter the words "as long as you're doing well".

"I have to! I'm not gonna stand here and watch them do this to you.They will think we are just
pushovers."

Mr.Jones was already there drinking tea when they arrived.

Entering the door, Sharon said, "Sorry for the wait, Mr.Jones."

He smiled, "No worries.I just got here a minute ago."

He then turned to the man behind Sharon and examined him a bit, "So, this must be your brother."

Sharon nodded her head and introduced Mr.Jones to Ruben.

Ruben respectfully lowered his head, "Mr.Jones, an honor to meet you."

Jones took out two tea cups on the table and started pouring tea in them, "Come and sit."

After they took their seats, he asked Ruben, "How old are you? Young man.’

"19"

"Still in college, I see."



"Yes, I'm a freshman.Jones lifted up his cup as he nodded with satisfaction, "I heard you have
incredible grades and you were the number one student of the whole province.’

Jones recalled a small incident, about someone who had wanted to buy an admission letter but, without
careful consideration, taken the highest score in the province.

But the admission letter had been returned to its owner eventually.

It happened some months ago, and usually Jones would not be interested in things like this, but to his
surprise, that student with the highest score was the boy in front of him, who looked like Sharon.

It is said that daughters look like mothers and sons look like fathers.

Sharon resembled her father in some ways but this young man sure didn't.

Jones sighed without making it heard.

During chatting, Sharon noticed that Jones was paying much attention to Ruben.

Perhaps it was because of her mother.

So she said, "I'll ask them to make more tea."

The door was opened when she got up.

And the person entering was not Natalia but a servant of the Beales.

The servant spoke carefully, "Miss Allyson, Miss Beale had an car accident on her way here.She's now
in the hospital..."

Sharon made an indifferent sound and asked, "Any details of her injury?"



"No.Only that there was a lot of blood.Quite severe."

"Oh.If that's the case, I'll visit her now.’

The servant hurriedly said, "No.....It is not necessary."

Sharon knew that Talon Beale wouldn't change his mind but she didn't expect Natalia to pull this one
off.

The servant carried a box ahead, "Miss Allyson, Miss Beale asked me to deliver this to you."

Sharon received and opened the box.

Inside it, she saw the necklace she had designed for the charity dinner.

She thought Rita Roose had hidden it somewhere, but it had been in Natalia's hand! Seeing her silent,
the servant continued, "Miss Beale said, she had found it months ago next to a trash can.And only last
night when she was organizing the room, she saw the logo on it and figured that it might be yours,
so....."

Sharon closed the box and said, "She sure is skillful at finding things."

Sharon knew that Natalia was trying to find her way out by returning this.

It was no wonder to Sharon.

A person as proud as Natalia was incapable of apologizing.

Jones waved his hand at the servant and dismissed him.

After the door was closed again, he said, "Dear, don't trouble yourself with the Beales.It's not worth
it.They will get what they deserve for what they've done.’



Sharon put down the box, smiled, and nodded.

Jones then told Ruben, "You too, young man.Just be patient."

Ruben had no objection, "I will."

A few more sips later, Jones stood up, "Alright, it's time for me to leave."

Sharon replied, "I'll give you a ride."

"Just accompany me downstairs.My driver is waiting."

After seeing Jones off, Sharon turned to Ruben, "I'll take you back to school."

"No, I still have something to do."

"Sure.Where are you going? I'll drive you there."

Ruben went quiet for a while and said hesitantly, "Actually, there's something I haven't told you.’’
