Her charming eyes looked pure, unlike the women he saw in nightclubs.

She would never oversell her looks and treated people with sincerity. She had strong perseverance and a heart of gold, which played a key role in winning the clients' hearts to secure the projects.

She was good at drinking as well. She once had a drinking competition with a client in an after-work meeting, and the client was knocked out cold.

She was unlike other women that he met.

After she came into his life, he stopped going to nightclubs and severed all ties with the women that he slept with.

It had been a few years since they first met. Even though there were still people who called him a playboy, he had never touched a woman since the first day of knowing her.

It was not because he did not want to have women in his company, but other than Sherry, no other females were able to match his standards anymore.

He really liked her.

In contrast, Sherry’s image of him never changed since day one. He rema

    When Carl finally cleared his mind, he went into the study, which he seldom entered. He turned on the computer and started to go through the stack of documents by the side. If he could improve himself, maybe Sherry might look at him differently in the future and fall for him. Besides, with past experience, Sherry might not stay married to John forever. They might really get another divorce someday. As long as he improved himself and gained the capabilities to rival John, he might stand a chance to win her back. …Later that night in Sherry’s apartment, Sherry played around with Caprice after dinner. She then bathed the girl and put her into bed. After Caprice was finally asleep, she went out to the living room and saw John reading on the couch. “Stop reading. Go take a bath.” He was still recovering, so sufficient rest was important. She did not want him to be the last to shower. John smiled. “Okay.” He went into the bathroom. Sherry sat by the bed and watched Capric

    Sherry had forgotten that the man had OCD. Ten years ago, when she lived with him in a cheap apartment, the man bought three pairs of socks for ten dollars and washed them before he wore them. Annoyed, Sherry asked, “Then, what do you want?” “I don’t know. What do you suggest?” Sherry bolted up to him, glared at him, and said, “If you don’t come up with a way, you are sleeping outside tonight!” John pursed his lips. “Fine with me.” He then walked past her and headed to the door. As he moved past her, Sherry saw the scar on his back. He had recovered from the stab, but it left a scar on his body. Her heart clenched all of a sudden. “Hold on!” He stopped and turned around to her. “Come over here.” He returned.Sherry then opened the closet where she kept her pajamas. Other than sleeping dresses, she had some oversized pajamas as well. Even though they might not be suitable, he should be able to fit in them. Sherry pointed at her pajamas. “See if you can fit in any

    Before her kick could land, he caught her leg with his large hand. The warmth from the tip of his fingers burned her ankle as he caressed her. Sherry blushed. “Get your hand off my leg!” John released her ankle as told, but then he grabbed her calf next. His naughty fingers started to dance on her sensitive calf softly. The touching slowly turned into rubbing and with the right amount of strength, it felt comfortable. Sherry’s eyes flickered. John looked at her and noticed her lifted mood. “How does it feel?” Sherry turned away shyly. “It’s okay.” He smiled and continued to massage her calf. Seconds turned into minutes as the massage went on. Sherry originally wanted to tell him to stop if he was tired, but his massage was too good to stop. After a while, she fell asleep without knowing it. John then stopped. Looking at her blushing face, the man smiled. He laid her body straight so that she could sleep more comfortably. He then got out of bed, picked up some loose

    Before John could come out of the room, Sherry asked Jason, “Didn’t you just drop his luggage?” Jason answered, “Yeah, but I forgot to bring the document that he asked for, so I went back for it.” “But how did you come back so fast?” Sherry thought John lived two hours away. Jason smiled, “Master Stockton’s hotel is two minutes away. It’s directly opposite this building. I don’t even need to drive.” Sherry was left speechless. Opposite the building? Two-minute walking distance? Sherry squinted. Why did John claim that a trip back to his place would take two hours last night? The scenes of him catching a cold a while ago flashed in her mind. Had the man been faking it to win her compassion? Sherry’s gaze turned cold. She turned around and wanted to confront the man. Then, she saw him standing in front of the room, smiling at her with curved eyes. His gentle smile somehow calmed her anger but she was still annoyed. She glared at him. “You said you are staying two ho

    John simply smiled. Sherry pushed him away. It was then that a tiny figure entered her sight from the room. Caprice had woken up without her knowledge. The girl was in her pajamas. Her hair was messy, and she was looking at them with her big googly eyes. “Daddy, Mommy, are you two kissing?” she asked innocently and curiously. Sherry blushed. She choked upon hearing the question and then looked at John. John smiled in reply. He went to Caprice and carried the girl into his arms. “Daddy and Mommy are saying good morning to each other,” he said. “Saying good morning means kissing?” the girl asked. Sherry smirked. She was anticipating John’s made-up excuse. John smiled and then said, “You can choose to kiss or not when you say good morning. You can only kiss people that you like and cannot do it to people you are not close with. Got it?” Caprice’s eyes shimmered with interest. “Oooo.” John then looked at Sherry. She sighed a breath of relief and muttered in her hear

    Sherry said, “You are now the CEO of the company, and we are working. If not Mr. Sager, what should I call you?” Carl curved his eyes. “When I wasn’t the CEO, you never called me Young Master Carl either.” Sherry gulped. “In the workplace, there’s only the superior and the employee, no Young Master Carl or whatever.” “Hmph. Fine.” He chuckled and stepped aside. Sherry continued forward, but when she walked past him, he held her wrist. She was caught off guard. He looked at her with his beautiful eyes and said softly, “Sis, if you really want to go, can you stop calling me Mr. Sager?” Sherry’s eyes flickered. “Okay.” Carl smiled and released her wrist. She then strode outside. He looked slightly disheartened. He only went to chase after her after she left the office. …Lisa’s car was waiting downstairs. As soon as Sherry walked out of the lobby, Lisa’s driver opened the door for her. Sherry went over. Lisa was waiting for her with a smile. She waved at Sherry

    Lisa’s eyes teared up. “Good, good. As long as you know your way home.” She urged Sherry to take the property deeds. “Keep these.” Sherry accepted her goodwill. “Thank you, Lisa.” …The lunch went on for hours. Lisa chatted with her about many things. They only went back to the office in the evening. There were still resignation procedures that Sherry needed to be a part of, especially since she was a department manager. There was some time left before clocking out, so she went back to her department and held a small meeting with her subordinates to tell them that she was leaving. Her subordinates were all smart people, and they already expected her to leave for Glenchester sooner or later. It was the time spent together that made it difficult to see her leave. Sherry chatted with them for a long time. It was until the sky turned dark when Sherry realized it was way past time to leave office. She told her subordinates to go home without holding them back any further.

    Even until the car disappeared into the traffic, the man did not show any intentions of turning away. His charming eyes teared up under the starry night. Some time later, an exasperated sigh could be heard. Lisa had been standing behind him for a while. She tapped on his shoulder and said, “Sherry said she will come to visit us often. Stop standing here. Go home and take a rest.” Everything that needed to be said had been said, thus Lisa then left the office. Carl remained standing before the window with pursed lips. After his mother left the office and shut the door, his body leaned forward against the window. He held up his hand against the window and propped his forehead against the back of his hand. Tears fell from his tightly shut eyes. …It took Sherry a full month to do a complete handover. Her last day was on a Friday. Sherry booked a table at a restaurant to treat her subordinates to a feast. Her subordinates were reluctant to see her go, but they were quite h

    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
