Chapter 233

Everyone instinctively turned their heads toward the commotion.

Evelyn was momentarily stunned. From the entrance, a crowd of people streamed

in.

Leading them was a lady with striking beauty. Her eyes carried a sharp edge honed by experience.

No one expected Sharron to show up in Pearlia for an impromptu inspection.

Mason and the others immediately straightened up.

After Sharron walked in and heard the manager's words, she nodded. "Lead the way."

She had flown here at the last minute and did not anticipate running into Lucas here.

The manager quickly gestured politely. "Mr. Grant is in the restaurant, along with his girlfriend."

Sharron's steps faltered for just a fraction of a second.

Gliding across the floor in her heels, she soon caught sight of Tiffany seated beside Lucas.

Almost immediately after, she noticed Evelyn sitting not far away too.

Her eyes narrowed slightly, clearly surprised by the situation.

Sharron glanced at Lucas, only to see that he was calm and composed, as though the scene before him posed no challenge at all.

"Mrs. Grant." Jason greeted her first.

Mason and the others followed suit with their own greetings.

Tiffany gave a polite nod but did not attempt to engage in conversation.

Sharron acknowledged them with a slight nod. "I'm here to inspect the site. Don't mind me."

She did not speak directly to Tiffany, choosing to let her gaze sweep past her instead.

"Lucas, come with me for a moment," Sharron said. Just before turning away, her eyes briefly flickered to Evelyn.
