On the way back home, Sherry couldn’t figure out what had happened.
She remembered setting up all the alarms and double-checking it before sleeping.
Also, she couldn't recall she had ever turned them off.
As soon as she walked out of the elevator, she saw Stella going out to the fresh market.
Stella asked, “Where have you been so early, Sherry?”
Sherry didn’t want to worry her, so she moved her joints and answered, “I went out for jogging, quite sweaty. I need
to take a shower.”
“Wait,” Stella stopped her. She looked at the label on her sleeve and frowned. “Did you jog in the hospital?” she
asked.
Only then did Sherry realize that she forgot to deal with the “evidence”.
She tore the label off and fiddled with it in the hand. “Haha... Nothing serious. My stomach suddenly hurt at
midnight, so I went to the hospital for an infusion. I’m fine now. Look at me. I’m so lively.”
Stella asked, “What did you eat? How come you had tummy trouble?”
“Well... It’s a long story,” said Sherry, “Remember the woman I told you last night? The woman I met in the ladies’
room turned out to be Brandon’s ex-girlfriend.”
She told Stella what had happened last night and added, “Probably the Japanese cuisine didn't agree with the
barbecue. I didn’t have such a problem when having barbecue skewers before...”
Stella said crossly, “That’s not the point at all. Brandon has gone too far. How can you let him go so easily and
pretend as if nothing has happened?”
Sherry murmured, “After all, he was hit by Daniel. I felt sorry for him. So, it’s even...”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“It’s different. You should talk to Brandon directly. If he keeps such an ambiguous relationship with his ex-girlfriend
all the time, you’d better break up with him as soon as possible. He’s not the only man in this world. If your parents
know it, they’ll support you.”
“All right. All right. I got it. I’ll talk to him after the filming. But, Stella, something weird happened. Last night, when I
was in the hospital, I remembered setting up the alarms. When I woke up this morning, all the alarms were turned
off. How creepy!”
After a moment of silence, Stella asked, “Which hospital did you go to?”
Sherry paused a bit. “Although... I don’t think it’s possible. The hall for infusion was in a different place from the
inpatient department. Besides, it had been two or three o’clock when I arrived at the hospital. He couldn’t be
wandering around the place without sleeping at that time.”
Stella said, “I remember when you were pregnant, you said Daniel had bound your cell phone number with a
certain method. As long as you would register in a hospital, he could receive a text message.”
Sherry was silent and enlightened.
She recalled. It happened before Daniel had gone back to London.
He had been quite busy during that time, so he didn’t have time to go to the hospital with her. He was afraid that
she couldn’t take care of herself or something might happened to the baby, but Sherry wouldn’t tell him, so he did
it.
Although Sherry complained about him for that, she felt delighted.
After experiencing so many things, she had already forgotten about this matter.
Hence, she wasn’t dreaming that someone was with her last night.
She was shocked.
Stella watched her gape there, from being shocked to confused and to bewildered...
She said, “Sherry, you’d better rest at home this morning. I’ll ask Donald to deal with the filming. You can go to the
set directly this afternoon.”
Sherry subconsciously nodded, although she wasn't actually listening to what Stella said as she was still in shock.
Stella entered the password to unlock her door and pulled her in. “All right. Take a rest. I’ll buy you breakfast.”
After Stella left, Sherry sat down on the sofa and still didn’t return to her senses.
She realized that Daniel didn't only accompanied her for a whole night but also turned off her alarms.
Besides, when he left, he didn’t leave any traces.
She wondered why he did it, to let her not misunderstand him or what else?
Sherry’s tummy was fine now, but she felt a migraine.
Shortly after, Stella came back with some congee. She asked Sherry to take a nap, but Sherry couldn’t fall asleep at
all. She was even spirited.
Stella had called Donald to keep an eye on the studio. Sherry went to the supermarket with Stella after breakfast.
In the supermarket, Sherry pushed a shopping cart and asked, “Stella, did Mr. Conrad scold you last night?”
Stella picked up a bag of seasoning and put it into the shopping cart, shaking her head. “No, he didn’t. I went back
home early last night. When Clarence came home, I had already finished washing my clothes.”
“That’s good then. Who on earth did you ask Adolph Miller to find? Any progress?”
Stella paused and answered, “The woman who has kidnapped Daniel.”
Sherry was taken by a start.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was impressed by her ability to choose the subject.
Now, she had to talk about Daniel again.
After a few seconds of silence, Sherry asked, “Why are you looking for her?”
Stella briefed her on the situation and added, “Adolph Miller is more familiar with some places than we do. If I want
to find someone in those places, he’s the best choice.”
Sherry nodded in agreement. She heaved a sigh. “I didn’t expect that Adolph Miller wasn’t a bad man.”
Stella replied, “He just wanted to pay back the favor he owed me.”
In the end, they bought a lot of ingredients.
After putting them into the refrigerator, Stella and Sherry went to the studio together.
As soon as they entered, a staff member rushed to them, “Sherry, Stella...”
Noticing she looked pale, Stella asked, “Anything happened?”
The staff member nodded. “Half an hour ago, a guest walked in. She kept being picky at our jewelry. She’s so
arrogant that a lot of customers have been sent away.”
Sherry followed her gaze.
Sure enough, it was Brandon’s ex-girlfriend.
The woman was standing there holding a necklace in disdain; she seemed to be looking down at everything around
her.
Sherry walked over and let the staff member go back to her work. She asked, “Any problem?”
The woman met her eyes. With a smile, she said, “No problem. I’ve heard this jewelry store is quite popular, so I
came over to check on you. Everything is just 'meh'. Sure enough, how could these shabby jewelries compare to
the luxury brands? Some people should have better self-knowledge. Don’t be so shameless as to steal others’
things. Don’t embarrass yourself.”
