Chapter 55 Didn’t go with him
Outside the door of Night Group.
Andrew sat in his car and stared at the steps.
“Andrew, asked around, Sherry hasn’t been in the office lately, and I heard that she was given a long vacation.” The assistant came running back, eager to report.
Andrew’s brow furrowed.
He was about to order the car to leave when he saw Aaron’s car pull into the basement.
A certain possibility suddenly occurred to him.
Twenty minutes later, Andrew was standing outside the Swift Family door.
The maid pulled open the door, “Mr. Swift is not at home, you can come back another time.”
“I’m not looking for him, I’m looking for Sherry.”
The people coming down the stairs suddenly stopped in their tracks and when they met, Sherry just wanted to find a crack in the ground.
The maid turned back to look at Sherry and then at the well-dressed gentleman in front of her.
But after all, Aaron had not instructed that Sherry was forbidden to go out.
So when Sherry decided to go out, the maid didn’t stop her, she just kindly reminded her, “Eral told me this morning that Sir was coming back for dinner tonight.”
The implication is that even if Sherry is going out, it had better be before Aaron finds out.
“Thanks nanny, I understand.” Sherry put on her trench coat and followed Andrew out.
Sherry knows exactly where she stands today, her mother is still in Aaron’s hospital, so she can’t get into trouble, she can’t upset him, she has to be impeccably behaved.
This way, there is that silver lining.
At least Aaron wouldn’t have kicked her out straight away.
Sherry walked with her head down, just outside the Swift Family door, when she saw Andrew stop in his tracks.
Many emotions twisted hesitantly under his eyes, and the words came to his lips, but in the end all that remained was a sigh, “He threatened you?”
How else would she have come back to Swift Family!
Sherry thought about it and shook her head.
“Did you want to see me for something?”
She was so thin, standing in front of him, her appearance overlapping with that of the person he remembered.
Andrew, however, felt that Sherry was a completely different person and that she had really suffered too much over the years.
He wanted to help her, no matter what it would take.
Andrew’s voice was low as he pressed his voice, “I heard that my aunt is in hospital, so if there is anything I can do to help, just ask.”
“…”
Sherry’s eyes shifted, how did he know?
But her people didn’t react.
A card had been handed to her.
‘”If, because of that, you’re staying with Aaron, then would you, please, consider me? What he has, I can give you too.”
Sherry was suddenly struck dumb.
After a long time, took a step back, “I don’t want your money.”
“Aaron’s okay, but not mine?” Andrew was impatient too, and he stepped forward, forcing Sherry against the wall.
He was desperate to know why she just had to stay by Aaron’s side, to stay in the Night Group.
Even if, after what Aaron did to her, she doesn’t leave?
That thought, flooding into the mind.
Even though he didn’t want to admit it, Andrew spoke slowly, “You still like him, don’t you?”
So even when Aaron was about to get engaged to Nola, she stayed with Night Group without a second thought, and, repeatedly, refused him.
Sherry bit the corner of her lip tightly.
But it was a firm, “No.”
Andrew was suddenly relieved to hear those two words, and the card in his hand, he then handed it over, “Then you take it.”
His tone recovered slightly, “I thought, you still had him in your heart, which has tormented me to sleep badly every day for the past two days.”
His unconcealed feelings made Sherry’s heart panic.
She lifted her head and gently pushed Andrew’s hand away.
“Thank you for your concern, but those medical bills, I owe to Aaron’s hospital, he knew about my mother’s hospitalization all along, yet he didn’t transfer her and gave her treatment for free, even if I made up for those expenses, he wouldn’t let me off the hook.”
Sherry sighed.
“It’s a matter that I still have to settle with him, and although it’s a bit presumptuous of me to say this, Aaron won’t let go even if I borrow more money.”
Andrew stiffened.
It was so simple that he didn’t understand it.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
The hand in which he was holding the card dropped slowly.
“Andrew, thank you really.” She said this with all her heart, “You are the only person who can help me at this time, even if it means going up against Night Group.”
Sherry has also thought about it countless times.
If nothing had happened in the first place, if Aaron had remained a distant dream for her, perhaps, she and Andrew …
But in this world, there is no turning back.
What’s more, gratitude is not a feeling.
In the distance, Aaron’s car drove up.
He had returned early because of a change in his schedule for the afternoon, and to his surprise, he had witnessed such a scene.
“Stop the car.”
He told the driver to pull over to the side of the road.
A pair of cold eyes, watching Sherry closely.
He shouldn’t have gone soft and let her live, and she’s already hitting on Andrew?
So why not, instead, give her to Alex?
But before his temper could escape him, he saw Andrew leaving alone in his car.
And Sherry turned around and went back to Swift Family.
Aaron frowned and sort of relaxed a little, “Let’s go.”
Sherry had only just entered when the car pulled up steadily in the courtyard, and she was startled and looked immediately at the door.
Aaron walked in with a calm face, not looking at her, and entered the study.
Sherry’s heart hung in the air. Perhaps, she had overthought it, Aaron had not come back that way and would not have met Andrew.
So she thought, and went into the kitchen to pour a cup of coffee.
Aaron’s habits and tastes are well known to her.
No one in the world did a better and more attentive job of catering to him than she did.
The coffee is just the right strength, sweetness, and temperature.
Aaron took a sip and saw Sherry’s gentle, pretty face, and the thought that she hadn’t gone with Andrew made the man feel better for some reason.
His thin lips gently opened and closed, “Tonight at eight, come with me to an event, and if you do well, I’ll consider it, a write-off.”
Sherry’s eyes lit up and she nodded without even thinking about it.
“Yes!”
Aaron raised his eyebrows.
Suddenly flirting, he said, “Aren’t you afraid? Maybe it won’t be a good place for me to take you.”
Sherry smiled bitterly, “It’s okay.”
Besides, she was in no position to remotely think that he would be lenient with her.
She really was mentally prepared for all possibilities as long as she could please him.
Aaron didn’t give Sherry a hard time because she was so obedient.
It wasn’t until the evening that Eral sent over the dress.
Aaron knows exactly what size Sherry wears.
The dress was delivered as if it had been made for her, showing off her collarbone for an elegant and tall look, and paired with the brand’s new season high-fashion necklace, a sparkling and dazzling pink diamond necklace.
Sherry stood in front of the mirror, almost unrecognizable from herself.
Even the make-up artist who came to serve her couldn’t take her eyes off her, exclaiming, “You look so perfect in this outfit, Miss, Mr. Swift has a great eye.”
Sherry touched the corner of her skirt a little on her hands and knees.
His vision?
And yes, at least it’s better than her vision.
