NovelEnglishEx-Husband Wants Badly to Resume Their Marriage
Chapter 285: Be a Good ActorSharon returned to her room and lay on the bed.
Although she was exhausted, she did not feel sleepy at all.
Half an hour later, the phone on the bedside table rang.
Sharon picked it up.
It was Jameson calling.
She waited till the call almost ended before answering it.
Soon, Jameson's voice sounded, "Are you asleep?"
"No,'’ said Sharon.
"Cannot fall sleep?"
Sharon did not reply.
After a pause, Jameson continued, "I'll be back tomorrow afternoon.’
"OK,"
Sharon was silent for a while before responding.
Jameson asked, "Did something happen to you?"
"No” Sharon said.
"Why do you ask?"
"Something's wrong with you.’/’ Sharon said angrily, "I am not!"
At this time, someone seemed to be calling Jameson.
Jameson whispered, "We'll talk when I come back.
If it's urgent, go find William and don't take risks by yourself."
"I see.
Jameson said, "William will call you later.
Don't turn off the phone."
"Alright."
Sharon hung up the phone and let out a long breath.
It was as if the uneasiness and anxiety just now had all disappeared.
She did not sleep well all night.
The blackmail letter said that it was 8 pm the next day.
Sharon did not plan to raise five million but prepared an empty suitcase.
She had always felt that the blackmailer was probably related to the person who had sold her to the Twilight Club three years
ago.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have these things.
Ever since Bridger sent her to the hospital, they had disappeared and never showed up again.
Baddies and good people were mixing at that time, and the photos might not be in the hands of just one person.
Thinking of this, Sharon felt powerless.
It was useless to call the police when dealing with those people.
They were not in awe of the law at all.
In the afternoon, William finally arrived.
He looked around the studio before looking at Sharon.
"Speaking of which, I should have sent you a present the day you started your business.But I don't think you would like to see
me at that time."
Sharon wore a faint smile.
To be honest, she still didn't want to see him.
She had always seen him as Jameson's inept adviser.
William leaned against the front desk and said, "I heard from Jameson that something happened to you.What is it?’
"It's not a big deal," Sharon said.
She thought for a while and said, "I need some of your men."
"Sure.But Jameson told me to accompany you till he comes back.Tell me what happened.If it's really not a big deal, my men will
go with you, and I won't."
Sharon looked at him with a faint frown as if she was hesitating.
William sensed her worry and lightly tapped on the table with his finger.
"You don't want Jameson to know?"
At first, Sharon did not intend to tell Jameson about this.
However, she knew very well that even if she asked Tiffany to accompany her, the two of them would not be a match for the
blackmailer.
So when Jameson asked William to call her, she did not refuse.
Later, Sharon took the blackmail letter from her bag and emphasized, "I don't want to give him money, nor ask Jameson for
money.I just want to go there and see if I can get a chance to call the police."
William said nothing.
But he well understood Sharon's concerns.
After all, not long ago, Jameson regarded her as a woman who worshipped money and did not hesitate to use any means to
achieve her goal.
If this happened before their divorce, Sharon wouldn't be able to defend herself.
William looked at the contents of the blackmail letter and asked, "Do you have the photos?"
Sharon pursed her lips and nodded.
"Yes, Sharon took a deep breath.
"This is strange."
"What?"
"Everyone involved in this matter at the Twilight Club was cleanly dealt with.It can't be any photos left."
Hearing this, Sharon felt at a loss, "Dealt with?"
William put down the letter and looked at her, "You were Jameson's wife at that time.Even though he always said that he hated
you, how could he really let this leak out?"
People only knew that Sharon had been sold to the Twilight Club, but no one knew whom she had been sold to and what had
happened that night.
Even Sharon herself had never thought about it.
After a long time, she said, "Anyway ...don't tell him.I'll go by myself tonight.If the blackmailer only wants money, I'll think of
another way.’
The photos meant that the blackmailer definitely had the film.
Calling the police rashly would provoke the blackmailer, and the photos would be leaked.
William said, "I'd better go with you."
Sharon refused, "He said that I must go there alone."
"Just tell him I'm your driver."
William looked at the suitcase that she put aside, "You have to be a good actor, or your negotiation will fail."
William handed the suitcase to one of his lackeys and told them to prepare for tonight.
Then, he said to Sharon, "Don't worry, I won't tell Jameson.I'll go with you tonight and make sure everything is handled properly.’
Sharon nodded, "Thank you."
At night, the car stopped in front of a residential building near a high school.
Just as Sharon got off the car, she heard a hoarse voice in the darkness, "Go to the roof over there."
Sharon looked over and saw a large platform on the second floor not far away.
William got out of the car.
The man was angry, "Didn't I tell you to come alone?"
William raised his hands and said, "I'm just driving her here.Dude, it's not safe for a girl to go out at night.All you want is
money.Just ignore me.The film is still in your hands.We can't do anything to you."
The man in the dark paused for a moment before saying, "You stand there, don't move!"
"Fine.I won't move."
As he spoke, William glanced at Sharon.
The latter carried the suitcase and walked towards the platform on the second floor.
"Didn't I ask you to bring five million? How much is this? Are you f*cking fooling me?"
Sharon heard the man's voice from afar as she stepped up the last stairs.
Sharon said in a calm voice, "This is only a part of it.When you give me the film, I'll give you the rest.".
"Stop messing around with me! Bring me the rest of the money, or I'll post the photos online.By then, your reputation will be
destroyed!"
Sharon stared at the darkness and frowned slightly.
