Chapter 938Kingsley changed the bulb and turned on the light. The room lit up, so Kingsley got off the chair. However, the room went dark again. He rubbed between his eyebrows and said helplessly, "It seems that the power is really out this time..."The dim yellow candle was more heartwarming and tempting than the light. Kingsley was very close to Sherman. The candle flame glittered between the two of them as if whispering something. Sherman blushed.Sherman didn't want to stay there any longer, so she said, "I'm tired. I want to sleep now.""Remember to bring the candle. When you go to bed, remember to put it out. I'll be in the living room. Tell me if you need anything..." He said softly.She nodded and stepped into the room. Lying down on the bed, she didn't sleep, and neither did he.Even though they were separated by the door, she could hear him walking back and forth. Although he had deliberately slowed down, Sherman could hear that.There was no heating in the living r
Chapter 939She replied to the message saying that she had work to do and couldn't come. She asked him how many days he would be there.They sent several text messages to each other. Sherman was still in shock about her pregnancy at that time, so she didn't tell Kingsley.When Sherman had lunch at noon, she didn’t eat much. Everyone could tell that she seemed very thoughtful.Kingsley left the same day. At night, Sherman couldn't sleep well because her life was again in a mess.She tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Sherman sighed helplessly. When she went to work the next day, she had very obvious dark circles under her eyes.Billy was waiting for her at the office, but she was not in the mood to pay attention to Billy at that moment. Billy didn't leave and kept sitting beside her.He made up his mind that he and Sherman must be together again.In the past two days, Billy had been around her, and he could be seen in the morning, noon and afternoon. He also didn't go to his of
Chapter 940 However, the workers at the construction site were wearing very thin clothes. Some of them only wore thin jackets, but their faces were covered with sweat. They were very tired. Walking behind her, Billy saw that she was so cold that she wrap herself tightly in her down jacket. He narrowed his amorous eyes and took off his black coat to put it over her shoulders. Sherman did not accept his kindness. She took off his coat as soon as possible. Then she turned back, put the coat into his arms, and walked away.She could accept anyone's kindness, except Billy's!The workers at the construction site were busy. After inspection, she specially told the project leader that for aerial work in winter, everything must be checked to ensure safety! The project leader nodded repeatedly to show that he understood her words.Sherman didn't stay any longer. She left the construction site. It was almost time to get off work, so she didn't plan to go back to the company. Billy
Chapter 941She was very hesitant and confused. The upset in her heart was beyond anyone's imagination.Sherman's cell phone was ringing. She picked up the phone and found it was Kingsley. After a moment's hesitation, she answered the phone.His voice was as sweet, deep, and soft as ever. He asked her if she had had dinner and if she was tired from work.Although she was a little unhappy, she talked to him calmly.In the end, Kingsley let out a deep sigh. He said in a very deep voice, "I miss you so much..."Sherman's heart was beating hard. She hesitated a little for a moment and replied to him, "I miss you so much, too..."His soft laughter came through the phone again. He talked to Sherman about how much he had missed her these days, "Tell me. How can I see you now?"Sherman asked, "Do you have an Instagram account?"She thought that a mature man like him wouldn't have such a thing.As Sherman expected, he didn't have an Instagram account. He said again, "Wait a minute. My
Chapter 942There wasn’t so much work to do in the company today, so Sherman decided to go to the construction site.Billy came to Sherman's company again, but she didn't even want to talk to him. Billy did not give up and drove after her.It was at lunchtime when Sherman arrived at the construction site. Most workers were having box lunches while a few workers were still working high above the ground.Sherman also squatted there, having a box lunch. Billy frowned slightly and he did not eat.On cold winter days, the food would get cold quickly. Seeing several people still working high above the ground, Sherman asked them to get down to have lunch first.They didn’t have other choices. If they came down late, they could only eat box meals which had got cold. No one would bother to heat the meals for them again.Putting down the box lunch, Sherman walked over and stood below the building. Billy went over too and stood beside Sherman. Sherman bends over to look at the construction
Chapter 943Sherman called Moriah. After a while, she came, and so did Sarah.Moriah was in tears when she saw her son, and Sarah was also very heartbroken.The doctor said that Billy would wake up when the anesthesia dissipated.Sarah didn't like Sherman. Because of her, Billy was in such a state.Sherman couldn't leave at this time. She sat there and waited. As for what happened at the construction site, she called the manager.She had thought it would be an ordinary day. She didn't expect it to be so terrifying. Her heart still kept beating fast now.In the evening, Billy woke up. But his condition was too serious. He couldn't move around but could only make some sound.Hearing the sound, Moriah cried more painfully. Sherman felt relieved. At night, someone had to take care of Billy. Moriah stayed there, and so did Sherman. Sarah left.The doctor said that Billy must be taken good care of and shouldn't move. There was nothing serious with his arms. The main thing was to tak
Chapter 944"We can't reach an agreement on the compensation, so there is no way to deal with it. We can only offer four hundred thousand dollars for compensation, but the family of the deceased wants one million dollars." The manager said."But it can’t be postponed any longer, which will have a bad impact on the company. It is best to solve it as soon as possible." Sherman replied."You are the person in charge of this project, so you will negotiate with them about the compensation, and then you report it to the company." The manager added. Sherman nodded and said, "I'll try."She invited the over-emotional family members to her office and made coffee for them. She said a few words of relief first and then mentioned the compensation.Sure enough, as soon as she mentioned the compensation, the family members strongly objected. Sherman understood their feelings and persuaded them patiently. But they still failed to reach an agreement.Her cell phone rang and it was Moriah who cal
Chapter 945Natalie didn't want Sherman and Billy to get too close, so she decided to go to the hospital in the afternoon.Dr. Zack left, leaving Sherman, Billy and Moriah in the ward.Sherman's phone rang. It was Kingsley. She couldn't answer it, so she sent him a text message. But she didn't tell him about what happened in Santabaca. Nor did she mention that she was pregnant.The high heels made crisp sounds on the floor. Sherman thought it was Sarah. When she looked up, she saw it was Natalie.She wore fashionable clothes, with gifts in her hand. She looked very dignified with a smile on her face, greeting Moriah respectfully. Moriah was indifferent to her, as if they were strangers.Billy subconsciously looked at Sherman, whose face was as calm as water.Then he looked at Natalie, frowning. He didn't want her to come here, because he had just eased his relationship with Sherman.Natalie obviously sensed the atmosphere in the ward. She said, "Ms. Day told me that you are he
