Chapter 879They had been together for a long time. Natalie never asked Billy for money or anything else.Billy had voluntarily paid for Natalie’s medical bills when she was ill, and so had this villa.On top of that, Natalie never used the bank cards Billy gave her. It seemed to Billy that she had no interest in his money.In his eyes, she was different from other women. She was an even-tempered woman and he had never seen her lose her temper.Whether Billy was losing his temper or angry, her tender words could calm him down.Billy thought if he had not met Sherman in the university, he might marry Natalie.After all, few women could make him want to get married, except Sherman, who had got divorced, was Natalie.Billy really liked Natalie's temperament. They had been together for so long and had never had contradictions or quarrels.Even when they had different opinions, Natalie would accommodate and cooperate with him.A tide of rage surged through Natalie. She was so angr
Chapter 880The president, the vice president, and the managers of all departments all showed up. Ten minutes later, two black cars stopped at the gate one after another.First came the slightly portly mayor, whom Sherman had met once before. Coming out of the car behind was Kingsley, wearing a black suit and casually draped over a coffee color coat, looking elegant and composed.Sherman and Kingsley had not been apart long. When Sherman looked at this familiar figure, there was a special feeling in her heart.Kingsley nodded slightly. Although he was shaking hands with the president and vice president, his eyes were always on Sherman, which was very gentle.Sherman perceived that, so she returned with a faint and sweet smile.The manager observed them closely. As that group of people was getting into the elevator, the manager suddenly said, "Sherman, you go to help the president sort out data."Sherman was speechless.The president's assistant and secretary were there. How cou
Chapter 881After a while, there was no movement over there. Sherman removed her hands from Kingsley's ears and patted his chest. It was surprising that such a steady man was impulsive.Kingsley saw Sherman flushed to the ears. He glanced at his watch and found that the meeting was minutes away."Lipstick," Kingsley uttered.Although Sherman was confused, she fished it out and handed him.Kingsley held Sherman's chin in his left hand, unscrewed the lipstick out with his right, and gently put lipstick on her lips.Sherman had already put on lipstick, but her lipstick was smudged after that kiss. She looked a little awkward.When Kingsley put lipstick on her, his adam's apple bobbed. Sherman registered that, and her heart quivered slightly; then she avoided his eyes.And then Sherman went out to see if anyone was outside and made sure it was clear before she let him out. She was as careful as a thief.Kingsley, on the contrary, was unperturbed. He walked out calmly and gracefull
Chapter 882Billy frowned and he was panting with anger. He drank the bubble tea, which was too sweet. It was also hot and scalded his mouth a little. He threw the bubble tea into the trash can.He felt that Sherman was getting smarter and more cunning. She just said that she wanted to drink bubble tea but he believed her!Back to the villa, Sherman found that Kingsley was not at home but Luke was there. She ignored Luke and made a bowl of tomato and egg noodles. Then she sat at the dining table to eat it.Luke didn't eat dinner, either. He smelled the aroma of the noodles and felt a little hungry. He got up and went to the kitchen. When he glanced at the pot, it was clean and there were no leftover noodles.Sherman didn't seem to see his behavior and still ate silently. Luke called the restaurant to deliver some food.Neither of them talked to each other. At the end, as if thinking of something, Sherman raised her head and said, "You did it on purpose last night, right?"Luke a
Chapter 883Everyone around Sherman was totally immersed in that, but only Sherman went about her business.Sherman's phone vibrated when she was about to make copies of the materials she had sorted out. She took out her phone and found it was Kingsley.Then she went to the break room and answered it. There came Kingsley's deep voice, "Have you arrived at the office yet? And did you have breakfast?"Sherman replied to his questions one by one and asked him, "Is the urgent business handled?"Kingsley's voice was hoarse, as if he had not slept, "I'm sorry, Sherman. I left in a hurry yesterday and I didn't have time to call you. It was late at night when I finished everything, and I didn't want to wake you. Grandpa's not doing too well, and I am in Lanechett now. I've only just arrived. I'm so tired and dying to hear your voice..."Sherman inquired about grandpa's situation with concern. Kingsley said, "Grandpa is in serious condition. And he is in the ICU."Hearing that, Sherman c
Chapter 884Immediately, Billy's face hardened. His brows were knitted deeply. "I have already said that I have nothing to do with her and I am chasing you again!"When Sherman heard Billy’s words, she felt that he was telling a joke. She ignored the words and got up. Billy stood in front of her. "Where is the man named Wright?""I only know my boyfriend. As for the man named Wright you mention, I don't know him." Sherman disliked Billy for addressing Kingsley in this way.Billy's face hardened again, as he was boiling with greater anger. He couldn't tolerate Sherman protecting another man!He was about to step forward to stop her when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and stopped. Then he answered the phone.Taking the opportunity, Sherman quickly walked around him, hurriedly left, and went to the office.When she returned to the office, there was a message displayed on the phone, which was sent by Kingsley.He said that his grandfather had been out of danger. Althou
Chapter 885Natalie glanced at the check on the table but she did not take it. Instead, she went out to look for a job.She went to a well-known clothing store, the most famous clothing store in Santabaca. The price of each piece of clothing was ridiculously expensive. However, there were still many people coming here to buy clothes and the clothes were in short supply.Natalie went to apply for a shopping guide and the shop assistant asked her to meet the manager.The manager was a middle-aged woman. After interviewing Natalie, the manager asked her to provide her resume. Then the manager asked Natalie to begin working in the afternoon and there was a three-day trial period.In the afternoon, Natalie was sorting the clothes when she saw a young and beautiful lady walk in. The lady was wearing a fringed long skirt and a fur coat outside. She looked so noble.Seeing her walk in, all the shop guides bent over respectfully to welcome her and greeted her by calling her "boss".Natal
Chapter 886Natalie said nothing but took a few sips of the strong coffee. There was a glint in her eyes when her eyes dropped.She thought Livia would never think that she had done it because Livia would not suspect her at all.After all, who would shoot himself in the foot?However, in order to get what she wanted, Natalie did not mind.Natalie stirred her coffee leisurely with a spoon. She did not care whether Billy or Livia would find out. They would never find out she did it except for herself!...Sherman's project had started and was progressing fast.Kingsley had not yet returned, so Sherman and Luke were still alone in the villa.Although they lived in the same villa, they never communicated, nor did they need to.Sherman worked hard, and the colleagues were friendly. Besides, the manager always affectionately called her "Sher" and took good care of her.Time passed by, and life went on. This mundane existence seemed to be the same as usual, but Sherman always fel
