A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 77 Faked a Smile

William smiled playfully.

Meanwhile, Sherry couldn't help looking at the corner... That woman was the main lead of the night, right? What a beautiful woman! She hoped that William could find a better stepmother for Sammy!

Liam looked at William who was hiding in the corner... Since William was interested in Sherry, why did he go to the blind date?

“Sherry! The coffee you made tastes so good! What should I do? I think I can't live without your coffee! I also can't live without you!” after taking a sip, Liam suddenly held Sherry's hand and pressed it on his chest, “Feel it, my heart is beating hard, right?”

“Liam?” Sherry was dumbfounded, she didn't expect Liam to grab her hand so suddenly. She looked up and saw his bright eyes, which had no trace of lust, she then laughed, “Liam, you're teasing me again!”

“Oh my, Sherry, you got me there!” Liam was quite disappointed, he then unwillingly let her hand go, “All right, no more jokes!”

That was pretty much all the jokes!

Because Liam could already feel a fiery gaze from a certain corner, William held the alcohol glass tighter, but Ashley stopped him right when he wanted to stand up, “William, you really don't like me?”

William realized that he seemed to have lost his self-control, even if his aura was cold, he saw Sherry and Liam over there, she was still smiling so happily he even after he told her that she shouldn't be with other man, and that annoyed him so much!

The dance music started.

Sherry saw William and Ashley stepping into the dance floor and danced in partners, then a lot of people also stepped into the dance floor.

Under the magnificent light, they looked so well matched that people couldn't look away from them.

William was a man the center of the attention, while Ashley was so petite and lovely... He kept smiling indifferently from the beginning, making her shine brighter.

“What do you think? Are they a well match?” Leon nudged Liam with his elbow. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

he narrowed his eyes and said, “They seem to be in harmony, but their thoughts are somewhere else!”

“You can see that in detail?” Leon was surprised.

“Yeah! I'm always sharp!”

“Liam, why do I think that Will is interested in Sherry?” Leon was puzzled, “Have they known each other for a long time?”

“You should ask Will about it, he's so peculiar nowadays!” Liam shrugged, “But I think that it's nice to have a bit of emotions... At least the atmosphere is way better than three years ago!”

“Is that so?” Leon smiled and said, “Then what about you? What's with you and my assistant, Sherry?”

Liam suddenly turned his head and glanced at Leon, “Leon, you know what? As time goes by, I found that you're a natural in gossiping, do you want me to give you a nickname?”

“What is it?” Leon was taken aback.

Liam smiled indifferently before saying, “You gossip!”

“Ugh!” Leon laughed, “I learned it all from you, you also a gossip!”

Sherry looked uncertain, then she flung her head as she quietly backed out.

Such occasion was unsuitable for her, forever and ever.

She waited in the corner, wishing that the banquet could end sooner... She didn’t know how Dan was doing, home alone! What about Sammy? Why Sammy was nowhere to be seen? Wasn't that their home?

“Sherry!” Sherry suddenly heard a woman's voice, so she raised her head and looked over.

In detail, that woman looked very similar to Sherry, she was the woman that Sherry met in the graveyard, which was Sherry's mother, Sierra Anderson.

“Do you work here?” Sierra asked considerately.

Sherry raised her head and looked at Sierra indifferently like she was looking at a stranger, “Sierra, I think that it has nothing to do with you, right?”

“Sherry, should we be so indifferent, as a mother and daughter?” Sierra asked patiently.

Sherry frowned, she looked indifferent as she looked up at Sierra's beautiful face. Forty-year-old woman, who was still charming, her face didn't age that much!

"Please don't disturb my work!"

“Sherry!” Sierra's voice was so loud.

“Why? You want to hit me?” Sherry sounded so soft but it didn't sound disdainful. Her meaningful tone, immediately hit Sierra on the right spot, “For what reason?”

Sierra rubbed her lips without saying anything as she stood up straight.

“Ms Sierra?” when the atmosphere was getting strained, Ashley suddenly walked out to them.

Sherry saw that Sierra clearly stiffened, she looked at Sierra's face... Sierra seemed to be in a panic when she turned her head and saw Ashley, she immediately smiled, “Ashley, why are you out here?”

“Sierra, who is this lady... Don't you want to introduce her?” Ashley was interested in Sherry from the start, she didn't expect that Sierra would know that woman.

Sherry wanted to leave, but she heard Sierra saying, “Ashley, I... I just knew this lady... I... I have yet to know her name!”

Sierra suddenly lowered her head after saying that, she felt so guilty that she didn't dare to look at Sherry.

Sherry sneered... She was surprisingly so calm at that time, “Yes, Miss, I'm just a waitress here. Please tell me if you need anything!”

After speaking, she wanted to walk away.

“Wait a second!” Ashley suddenly shouted.

“Is there anything you need, Miss?” Sherry's face felt quite numb and she had mixed feelings.

“May I know your name?” Ashley smiled with her big and bright eyes.

“Ugh! Miss Jones, I'm just a waitress, if you need anything, just let me know!” after saying that, she just turned around and left. Sierra's face looked complicated and ashamed.

“Ms Sierra?” Ashley narrowed her eyes and sharply gazed at Sierra's face, but her voice sounded softer with a slight of concern, “You should go back, father is looking for you!”

“Oh! I'll go back soon!” Sierra immediately went back to the hall and found out that Payne already seemed to be displeased, “Payne, you've finished the conversation?”

“Where have you been?” Payne sounded a bit angry.

“Oh! Nowhere, I just went out for some fresh air... I thought you're going to talk for a long time!” Sierra lowered her head as she spoke, like a mistress.

“OK, don't leave all you want if there's nothing important!” Payne sounded softer.

Sherry looked at her mother with the unfamiliar man beside her from a far place, and she told others that she just knew her... So funny.

But that's a good thing too, she didn't want anything to do with Sierra anyway. They were doomed not to get close to each other.

“Sherry? What happened? Why do you look so pale?” Liam asked thoughtfully.

Sherry looked at Liam in front of her, she then put an indifferent smile on her pale face... The smile was so thin that it nearly couldn't be seen, “I'm okay, Liam, I'm fine...” she paused before smiling, “I'm really okay... ”

“Are you really okay?” Liam was quite worried, he search through the whole crowd but he didn't see William's trace... After the dance, William disappeared.

“Liam, I'm going to go outside again!” seeing Ashley and Sierra walking in, Sherry suddenly felt that the huge hall was so cramped... It would be better for her to go out for some fresh air!

Liam was watching her back, he then called her right when she turned around, “Sherry!”

Sherry stopped walking and looked back at him, “Yes?”

Liam's handsome face looked cheerful and warm... Under the light, his body was surrounded by a circle of light. She waited silently, but then her gaze looked complicated because Liam didn't say anything after a long time, she then said, “Liam, I'm really fine!”

“Some things shouldn't be kept in your heard, if there's something on your mind, I can be your listener... I promise that I won't tell anyone about it!”

Sherry's heart twitched... She turned out to be such an easy person to read. Then, she smiled as she shook her head, still looking pale, “Thank you, Liam!”

Sherry didn't want to show her weakness so she just faked a smile and came back to the garden, which was outside of the Rowland's.

At that time, she heard the bodyguards standing outside the garden shouting in unison, “Young Master!”

Nearly at the same time, Sherry turned her head and saw a tall figure with powerful aura walking from the other side of the door. Sherry was slightly stunned before she turned around and walked towards the house.

She didn't expect him to catch up with a few big steps, he then grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the back of the villa. He was so strong that she couldn't break free.

“Hey! Let me go!” Sherry shouted.

The bodyguards were all dumbfounded, they had never seen Young Master being that rough... Who was that woman anyway? Miss Jones was the main lead for that night, wasn't she? Why did the main lead become a waitress?

Sherry didn’t know where he was bringing her, it seemed to be a quiet house, where they couldn't see the uproar up front... But they could still faintly hear the music.

Soon after, he pressed her on the wall, confining her body. Then, he kissed her swiftly and fiercely, it was so brutal and ruthless that it almost took all her breath away.

Her mind went blank, how could he kiss her again? Why did she feel like a bar girl?

Why was she so miserable?

In the blind date banquet, he just danced with the main lead, but then he unexpectedly came to harass her... How could he do that? She unexpectedly met Sierra at that night so she already felt terrible, and then he harassed her too. In a moment, she felt so desperate and sad.

She kicked and pounced him with all her might, “Let me go! Let me go, you're crazy!”

After shouting, Sherry felt more suffocated.

He looked down at her with a complicated gaze but he was expressionless.

She slightly frowned as she looked to the man in front of her, whose thoughts were unclear. It was so hard to get a glimpse of his thoughts, what the hell did he want to do?

“William, what do you want? What the hell do you want?” she shouted again, “Why do you always bully me? I'm not the kind of woman you think of, and I'm not one of your women... Why do you keep harassing me? I hate you!”

After hearing Sherry's words and disgusted look, William suddenly felt that his heart was hurt, it was twitching and aching, “Be my woman!”

That sentence, again!

She sneered and looked self-deprecating instead, “William, what did you say? Be your woman?”

That was the first time for her to face the question squarely. She felt ironic about such a question.

“Yes!” he was sure.
