Mr. CEO's Young Mistress
Chapter 42: Slapped by Leonard!
Sharon frowned. She stayed in the car for another two minutes before reluctantly getting out. She walked as slowly as she could towards the lift that was specifically for the CEO.

Sharon stilled and looked up to see Tim Hall standing beside her.
Lost in her thoughts, she did not know how long he had been standing there.
Tim confirmed it was Sharon when he saw her face clearly.
Tim looked at the closed door, and back at Sharon, puzzled. "Aren't you going in?"
"I never said I wasn't," Sharon mumbled.

Sharon looked at him. "Are you looking for Master Leonard?"
"Yes, I have something to report to him," Tim replied.
Sharon nodded and stepped aside. "Then you can go on in."
Tim looked at her. "What about you?"
Sharon frowned. "I'm coming, too. But you can go in first."

"Mm-hmm." Sharon nodded her head imperceptibly.
Tim knocked on the door and a deep voice rung out.
"Come in."
