Mr. CEO's Young Mistress novel Chapter 1

At Montreal's police station. 

"Sir, it's been five days. We've tried contacting all of Sharon's relatives, but none of them wants to adopt her. What do we do now?"

The young policewoman looked at Sharon Andre sadly, who was sitting on a chair and fumbling with her hands.

"What else can we do? We can only send her to the orphanage."

Officer Lee squatted down in front of Sharon. "Sharon, I'll be taking you to the orphanage tomorrow, alright?"

Sharon pressed her lips together and stared off in a daze as if she hadn't heard what he said. 

Officer Lee only sighed. "You're such a lovely child, so why won't anyone take you in—"

Before he could finish his words, panicked footsteps thundered towards the entrance of the police station. 

Taken aback, Officer Lee quickly stood up, looking towards the door. 

"Mr. Lefebvre, this way please."

A pair of cold, ruthless eyes shot towards them. Officer Lee's heart skipped a beat before looking away and letting out a breath of relief.

The man walking towards them had a strong built and wore a light-coloured suit. His hands were in his pockets, and his perfect facial features gave off an air of indifference.

His presence was so strong no one dared to look him in the eye. 

Officer Lee, however, recognized him immediately!

Leonard Lefebvre!

Leonard Lefebvre was the third son of the Lefebvre family. He was the most well-known person to the Lefebvre family and the Four Great Families of Montreal. Puvis Lefebvre, the current head of the Lefebvre Family, had personally announced him to be the next successor to the Lefebvre Group. 

But then, what was he doing here?

Sensing Leonard's approach, Officer Lee quickly moved out of the way. 

...

Leonard headed straight towards Sharon and took a hand out of his pocket. He lifted her chin lightly with a finger and stared at her delicate face. 

His face was expressionless. "Do you want to come with me?"

At that, Officer Lee went speechless. 

Ever since the car accident five days ago, Sharon had not said a single word.

She stared back at Leonard, her innocent dark eyes shining brightly. 

"Do you not want to?" Leonard frowned.

Sharon merely lowered her head and said nothing. Slowly, she raised a hand and placed it gently on the finger he had on her chin. 

The corners of Leonard's eyes crinkled slightly, and he extended his arm to carry Sharon out of the police station. 

Officer Lee was dumbfounded and went searching for the chief officer.

Sharon slowly walked towards him and stopped in front of him. "My name is Sharon Andre. What about you?"

Leonard stared at Sharon. Something flashed in his cold eyes, but it was so quick it was impossible to capture.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Sharon pursed her lips slightly.

"Leonard Lefebvre."

Leonard's brows were knit together. It was the first time he had ever introduced himself to someone, and it felt very foreign. 

Sharon's mouth opened slightly as if silently saying his name.

After a while, Sharon said, "Then, what should I call you?"

"I am ranked third in the family," said Leonard.

"Then, shall I call you Master Leonard?" Sharon asked softly, tilting her head back and staring and him. 

Leonard stared at her bright eyes for a moment before he replied. "As you wish."

Sharon suddenly smiled and called out sweetly, "Master Leonard."

Leonard narrowed his eyes at her for a long time. Then, he merely responded softly. "Mmm."

From the first time she softly addressed him as "Master Leonard", their fate has been sealed together.
