At that moment, the car happened to pull into a commercial street lined with clothing stores.A shop retailing provocative women’s clothing stood out.Sherry’s eyes flickered. “Brandon, stop the car.”Brandon immediately pulled over.Sherry pushed open the door and got out.Tristan hurriedly followed her and asked curiously, “Ms. Sherry, do you want to buy some clothes?”Sherry’s lips curled up. “Yeah.”...The morning passed by.At lunchtime, John put down his work, took Caprice out for a delicious children’s meal, and returned to the office.The girl was sleepy after eating, so he carried her into the lounge inside and let her sleep on the bed.He came out after she fell asleep since he was not sleepy yet.Sitting on the couch, he drank the tea his secretary poured, picking up his phone with one hand and casually scrolling through it. He had a habit of checking his friends' social media.He had not looked at his phone since the morning, so there were quite a few new post

“What are you laughing at? Have you not eaten? Or are you still hungry?” Sherry revealed a cordial and concerned expression. “Do you want me to treat you to another meal?”John was silent for a few moments before smiling. “You posted that picture just for me to see, didn’t you?”Sherry froze for a moment and asked, “Are you talking about the photo you commented on on my social media?”“Yes.”Sherry smiled. “You think too much. I took that photo a long time ago and happened to be a bit bored this morning, so I uploaded a selfie along with my post.”John pursed his lips and looked at her sharply.Sherry’s gaze flickered, and she asked, “Master Stockton, don’t tell me you asked me to come over because you were attracted by that photo of mine.”She had a surprised expression. However, it would have been more natural if the corners of her mouth did not twitch while she held back a smile.John’s throat constricted for a moment, then he curled his lips. “What kind of partnership did y

John’s gaze was cold. “Get out.”Sherry pursed her lips. She could not continue to squat there, so she tugged the door handle to stand up.However, as soon as she did, her abdomen suddenly experienced an uncomfortable sensation.Brrt!A crisp fart sound instantly rang out.John’s fair face turned green for an instant.Sherry laughed sheepishly. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to. Why don’t you go out for a while? I want to let out a few more.”John curled his lips. “Do you believe me if I tell you I’ll beat your *ss?”She was a little upset. “It’s not like I can control it. Don’t you usually fart when you take a dump? Besides, it’s not like you’ve never heard it before.”When she was with him in the past, she farted a lot when she could not hold it in, but she had never heard him fart before.John’s eyes looked at her coldly. “I’ll give you until the count of three to get out here.”“Fine, fine. You’re so petty.” Sherry held back the fart she wanted to let out, pushed open the door, a

Just as John was about to kiss Sherry, he froze.Sherry pushed him away and turned her head to look over.At some point in time, Caprice had woken up. She sat with her little legs crossed, and her pigtails were mussed up. She held her chubby face as her eyes looked blankly at John and Sherry. She looked incredibly confused and cute.Almost instantly, Sherry rushed to her and wrapped the little girl in her arms. “Caprice, what did you call me?”She looked at Caprice excitedly, but Caprice did not seem to understand why Sherry was so excited. While her large eyes were slightly confused, she still replied, “Mommy.”The tip of Sherry’s nose stung as her eyes instantly reddened. Then, she picked up the little girl’s chubby face and peppered kisses on her.Caprice was at a loss for words.Standing by the side, John was also speechless.It was a while before Sherry stopped kissing Caprice, but she still held her daughter’s cute face and said excitedly, “My baby Caprice is so good.”S

Maybe the indoor temperature was too comfortable, or the little girl’s steady breathing had a hypnotic effect, but after staring at Caprice for a long time, Sherry suddenly felt sleepy as well.She laid down next to the girl and closed her eyes for a little while.However, not long after that, she soon succumbed to slumber.When she opened her eyes again, Caprice was sitting beside her, looking at her with wide eyes. She was dressed neatly. Her pigtails were secured tidily, and she was eating a milk cracker in her hand.Sherry was stunned and turned her head to see the sky outside but saw John instead.He stood leaning by the wall not far away with his arms crossed in front of him, looking at her with a disgusted expression.Sherry shot up straight and took out her phone from her pocket to look at it.It was already 5 p.m.!Did she sleep here for almost four hours?“Um... I didn’t fall asleep on purpose.” She chuckled sheepishly at John.John curled his lips. “If you’re awake

Meanwhile, at a fine dining restaurant, Caprice sat on the child seat by the window, her small hand holding a spoon and slowly eating her meal.John sat beside her, having just finished eating, and put down his cutlery.The little girl had only eaten half of her meal. She would most likely take another half hour to finish.He leaned back in his chair and picked up his phone. His fingers subconsciously clicked on Sherry’s social media, only to see that the post from this morning was gone.The screen was blank.Did she delete her photo?John’s expression sank for a moment, then he smiled again. Her honey trap had succeeded, so she stopped showing the picture to him....The next day, at 3 p.m., Sherry finished a meeting and her day’s work. She was mulling over the reason she could use to look for Caprice when she suddenly received a message from John.He sent a voice message. “I’ve read the letter of intent. Come see me now. I want to talk to you face to face.”Sherry’s express

Sherry would not bend over to please John.If he was in his right mind, he would not give up the partnership with Sager Corporation.John was stunned. This was the first time someone who wanted to collaborate with him dared to give him attitude.After a moment, he laughed. “Sherry, do you think the cooperation with Sager Corporation is very important to me?”“If it’s not that important, then give me back the letter of intent.” Sherry held out her hand as she spoke.John was speechless.After choking for a moment, he lifted the corners of his lips again. “How do you plan to explain it to Sager Corporation if you fail to cinch the partnership with me?”Although she was the president of Sager Corporation and was very influential, she was still working for the Sager family.Sherry met his evil and calculating gaze and smiled at him. “I’ll tell them you rejected me because of a personal grudge against me.”“Heh...”She would blame it on him? That was quite resourceful.He said, “

Outside, it was dark and cold.Sherry really missed Caprice. She did not leave. Instead, she crouched in the dark, wrapped in a thick down jacket, hoping to see Caprice when she came out with John.However, even after a few hours and there were no people left on the road, she did not see John bring Caprice out.There were several times when she had spent the night at Sager Corporation when something urgent cropped up. Something mostly likely really did happen to that man, so he might not leave the office tonight.Sherry stopped squatting there. She touched her empty stomach and called a taxi back to the hotel.Two days later, at around 4 p.m., she heard from him again.He said that he had read her revised letter of intent for partnership and wanted to go through the details.Sherry rushed to Stockton Tower but was escorted to the conference room again. It took another half an hour for John to come. Then, he wasted her time until the evening and did not allow her to go upstairs w

She was her usual self in every aspect. She put her heart into her job and never started trouble so long as nobody tried to start trouble with her. The crew cycled through their locations during their shoot. The constant travel made her skin break out slightly, but there were no other concerns otherwise. The shoot progressed very smoothly and within three months, they managed to wrap up everything at the mountainous region previously mentioned. It was nearly evening when they wrapped up the shoot. Holding a bouquet in hand, she took a group picture with the crew and celebrated with everyone. After that, she planned to hitch a ride with another crew member and leave for home. To their demise, some men in uniform who claimed to be the road maintenance technicians showed up to break the bad news to them. They mentioned that they had to repair some of the roads urgently and so the way home was temporarily obstructed. The director took his phone and called the city hotline fo

He remembered his first meeting with Isabel. She was sitting all by herself on the floor, in the middle of nowhere. Her vulnerable expression only made her more endearing. So, he managed to get her to go to his place and installed her in his home. He fell for her and paid careful attention to all her needs. It did not take long before Isabel caught feelings for him as well. The two of them got together in no time. Their days were plain and ordinary, but also very fulfilling, that was until he met Clarice. With the help of his father, his power struggle with Roland had reached a tipping point. It was at that opportune moment when Clarice’s father saw something in Roland and planned to wed his daughter Clarice to him to join up their families, which was a cause for alarm for Decker. He stressed over it for an entire night before approaching Clarice himself the very next day. Clarice quickly caught feelings for him as well. Furthermore, Roland had been foolish enough to reject

Decker was smiling quite earnestly at Isabel. Isabel threw a deeply suspicious look at him, then she glanced at the stack of documents laid out on top of the table in front of her. “Transferal of Shares.” She was dumbfounded. "I've gone through the contract, it’s safe to sign so go ahead.” Roland picked up a pen and handed it to her. "Roland, I..." "Sign it first, I’ll explain when we get home.” Isabel frowned and tried to protest. "I—" "Don't make me have to beg." Isabel did not know how to respond. Fine. She briefly scanned through the contract. The contract stated Decker’s agreement to transfer the remaining forty percent of his shares in Rockwell Corporation to her. Roland must have talked to the shareholders of Rockwell Corporation about this as well. They all regarded Isabel with polite smiles. Isabel had flipped through the final page of the document. She signed her name on one of the marked-out sections. She proceeded to sign all thr

They ended the call shortly after that. Isabel glanced at Martha and was hesitating if she should break the news right away. Martha seemed to have sensed her staring and suddenly turned to her with a flash of concern. "Isabel, what's wrong?" Isabel took a deep breath and broke the news. "Auntie, Master Rockwell just passed away." Martha's eyes widened. After a lengthy silence that lasted more than ten seconds, she started to break out in tears. She covered her face with her hands and expressed amid bouts of tears mixed with laughter, “Wonderful! About time! I hope he enjoys life in the underworld. God knows that someone like him will never deserve a spot in heaven!” Isabel did not know whether she should celebrate with Martha or console her. Soon, Martha began to collect herself. She briefly wiped away her tears and joyfully took Isabel's hand. "Isabel, let’s go shopping! I’m in such a good mood today, I’m going to go on a shopping spree!” "Okay. But Roland w

Isabel held onto Roland's hand firmly during the entire drive home after leaving the hospital. It was because Roland’s hands were cold and rigid. Isabel sat with him and tirelessly rubbed his hand to keep them warm. After one hand was warm, she would shift her attention to the other. By the time she managed to warm the other hand, the original hand would turn cold again. She decided it was easier to take both of his hands and caress them with the warmth of her palms. Roland looked at her with a gentle glow deep within his eyes. “Thank you, Isabel,” he said softly. Thank you for loving him, and for sticking by his side all this time despite circumstances. Isabel smiled. “I’m just warming your hands, it's no big deal. Still, you’re welcome." Roland smiled faintly and left it at that. Soon, his hands began to warm up off of the heat of Isabel’s palms. When Isabel felt that his hands were no longer freezing, she prepared to pull her hand away. That was when

Decker looked nothing like his usual self. The pompous, arrogant man who held himself far above others and who expected everyone around him to kiss up to him because he was superior to them all. It was as if he had been plunged not only to Earth but a pile of swamp. He had completely lost his usual grace. Isabel said crossly, "Decker, have you gone mental? Is everything going on too much for you?” “Yeah, could you help me?” he said with a coy smile, “Just one hug should be enough to take care of it all.” Isabel rolled her eyes. Without warning, he suddenly braced himself and lunged right at Isabel, stepping past Brandon who was caught off guard by this sudden attack. Isabel barely had time to react. Just when it seemed like his hand was about to graze Isabel, a long pair of arms seized Isabel from behind and jerked her backward. It was swiftly followed by a long, muscular leg shooting outward right next to Isabel. Thump! Decker was kicked to the ground.

"How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked. Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him. "Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?” What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation? She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn’t latch on another woman to further his goals.” Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?" “He proved his worth.” Isabel realized that she had been roped in by Decker again. Nevertheless, she continued, “He passed the interviews himself. I was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history.” "

"I never meant to kill him! Roland, you have to believe me. Why would I still try to deceive you when I’m in this state?” “In that case, you can go ahead and explain things to him in the afterlife.” Master Rockwell was taken aback by this, his demeanor tightened. "You...you..." Roland looked at him calmly. "Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you. It was Grandma and my parents who raised me. They instilled morals and virtue into me and made sure I’d grow into a decent man.” Master Rockwell was briefly relieved to hear this, but before he could rid himself of his trepidation, Roland continued in a dark voice, "But I won’t forget about you and Decker bribing all those media outlets to defame Isabel. I know you manipulated the stock prices to try to kick me out of the corporation. I’ll make sure to settle our score through the legal system.” If convicted guilty, they would have to rot in prison. “Roland… listen to me, Roland. Decker is your uncle. If you want revenge, you can come

Master Rockwell must have heard their shifting movements and opened his eyes. When he recognized the faces of Roland and Isabel, there was a brief glow in his murky eyes. He motioned to the nurse to have her help him sit up from the bed. After he managed to position himself seated up against the head of the bed, he asked the nurse to leave. Then he cast a loving, tender smile on Roland and Isabel. “Roland, Isabel, please have a seat.” Roland said disinterestedly, "We have things to get to, just hurry up and tell us what you have to say." Isabel stayed silent. A look flashed in Master Rockwell's eyes. Then, he turned to Isabel and expressed regretfully, "Isabel, I’m a foolish old man, it was me who told Decker to leak pictures of you two. He had no choice because I forced him to do so. If you have to blame someone, blame me!” Isabel frowned. She was somewhat impressed by how smoothly the old man switched his mask from one to another. From a forlorn and sad state t
