Tea was served in the meeting room. Sherry and her subordinates sat down on the other end of the table. The receptionist said, “Ms. Fowler, please wait for a while.” Sherry smiled. “Okay. Thank you.” There were over twenty minutes left until the meeting time. Arriving earlier showed the Sagers’ sincerity in this collaboration, so Sherry was more patient than usual. To her surprise, the door was opened before she could finish her tea. Peter was the one who opened the door, and then John came in. The man’s slender figure and his expensive suit appeared before Sherry’s eyes. The golden-framed glasses set off his handsome features, and he looked even more charming when he smiled at Sherry. Sherry was stunned. She thought the meeting would start at 2 o’clock, so why did John come over so early? While Sherry’s subordinates stood up immediately, she had to regain her composure first before getting to her feet. John walked to her and put a hand out for a handshake. “Ms. Fow

Caprice was holding a toy plushie while dozing off on the couch. She tried her best to fight the sleepiness but was losing as time passed. “Caprice…” Sherry called the girl as she strode over. Caprice was awoken by her voice and her eyes widened immediately. She answered with a sleepy voice, “Mommy…” Sherry carried the girl into her arms and kissed her on her chubby cheeks. “Caprice, Mommy missed you.” The little girl widened her grin when being showered with kisses. “Do you miss Mommy?” she asked. “Oh, yes.” Caprice’s eyes felt extremely heavy after the brief excitement, and she looked like she would pass out any moment. She grumbled, “But I want to sleep too.” Sherry smiled. “Okay. Mommy will take you to bed.” She then carried the girl into the mini lounge. She helped the girl to remove her jacket and shoes before putting her on the bed. Caprice clung onto her clothes and said, “Mommy sleep too.” The girl wanted her mother to sleep with her. Sherry smiled. “Okay,

There were still many follow-ups to do even after they closed the deal with the Stocktons. Besides Sherry and her assistant, Tristan, the other subordinates that followed her to Glenchester had to stay back in the city to continue the follow-ups. Sherry went through the details one last time before ending the meeting. The sun was setting over the horizon when the meeting finished. Everyone stretched after the long meeting. One of them asked Sherry, “Sherry, can we go for dinner now?” Sherry got up and smiled at her subordinates. “I’ve booked a table, so let’s go.” “Yay!” Everyone got up and started packing. …Tristan booked a table at a famous restaurant in Glenchester, The Heavens, and Sherry paid for the entire meal. The restaurant was rated as the top three establishments in Glenchester, and there was not a single poor review on the travel website. All the food served could be considered a cuisine for the gods, hence the name The Heavens. Sherry got a room for her

When Sherry entered the room, some of them were already singing and some were playing games. The table was filled with alcoholic beverages and snacks. Tristan smiled at her when she came in. “Sherry, do you want to sing or play?” Sherry smiled awkwardly. “I have something to do. You guys enjoy.” Tristan nodded and continued playing games while the others continued singing. Sherry grabbed a bottle of bear and sat in the corner. She simply did not have the mood to play. Carl’s request for her return flooded her mind. She originally planned to escape back to Coastrock with Caprice after the deal with the Stocktons was sealed, but now that she had gotten closer to Caprice, the man also treated her a lot better than before. There were times that it reminded her of nine years ago when they were still a loving couple. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she got. She chugged down an entire bottle of beer. Soon, she finished two bottles alone.Her subordinates no

Sherry giggled at his unusual reaction. “Hehe…” She looked silly as she giggled like she was a child. John sighed. He opened the door, held her hand, and shoved her into the car. He got in right after that and closed the door. The driver then drove off. John looked at Sherry. The woman was looking at him with her flushed face. The blush on her face made her look adorable and charming. He squinted. “What are you looking at?” “I’m seeing if you are the jerk I know, John Stockton,” she said. John was rendered speechless. A momentary awkward silence later, he curled his lips and asked, “How many bottles have you had tonight?” Sherry started to count with her fingers, but they were not enough. She counted and counted but was unable to reach the final number. The temperature inside the car was warm and she felt hot, so she took off her jacket and tossed it aside. John looked at her fitting dress and beautiful silhouette. He pursed his lips and gulped nervously. “Are y

John seemed very concerned. "What's the matter?” Sherry tightened her lips together but could not stop the tears from rolling down her cheeks. John was stunned by this. He wondered if it was because of something he had done. "What's wrong, Sherry?" he asked again, staring at her worriedly. “Sniff…” Sherry sobbed and tried her best to contain her emotions. John stiffened. The last time he saw Sherry in such a state was ages ago. It was so long ago that he had forgotten how vulnerable she could be at times. It was heart-wrenching to see her like this, to imagine what she was going through. He wondered how to handle this. Then, he gently pulled her into his arms and patted her back gently. “It’s alright, don’t cry.” Sherry suddenly felt an enormous amount of grief taking over her, and this made her bawl her eyes out. She suddenly cried out at the top of her voice, "Why did you do it? Why did you keep me imprisoned in your house and make me work like a slave? You made

Sherry stared blankly at John. It was only after she was set on the bed that she realized that they had returned to John’s bedroom instead of her bedroom. She tried to roll out of the bed in one erratic movement. She ended up landing in an awkward manner and plopped down to the floor on her buttocks. John lowered himself to look at her and smiled. “Where are you going in such a hurry?” Sherry blushed and said, "I'm going to find Caprice." "She’s asleep. Wanda is keeping an eye on her,” He said. With that, he took off his coat and sweater. Underneath his sweater, he wore a light-colored shirt. It did not take much effort for Sherry to notice the outline of his toned body. Her eyes glowed. John noticed the expression in her eyes, so he grinned and proceeded to take off the shirt. Sherry pulled herself up. John walked up to her and cupped her reddened cheeks in his palms. He spoke in a deep growl, “Let’s not worry about Caprice tonight and spend the night tog

Madam Stockton stepped into Julie’s bedroom but still could not see her anywhere. “Julie?” she called out. There was no response. She noticed the lights coming from inside the dressing room and carefully made her approach. When she stepped inside, she saw that the curtain was pried open, but there was nobody behind it. Concealed behind the curtain was a closed door. She was rather puzzled by the sight of the door. "Why is there a door here?" she muttered to herself. Then, she slowly approached the door and pressed her palms against its surface. … The night was cold. Julie and Mia hurried to the edge of the courtyard. There was a gap along this section of the wall which was meant to be an intentional architectural installation. The gap was wide enough to allow a child or a skinny adult to fit through. Just as Julie was about to squeeze through the gap, she suddenly recalled that she might have forgotten to close the curtains in her dressing room in her hurr

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
