Three days later, Sherry went to London.
After getting down from the plane, it was already past ten in the evening. She directly checked in to the hotel.
She decided to go to Complex Corporation to find Stella’s father the following day.
Lying in the luxurious bathtub of the suit, Sherry sent a voice message to Stella: “Stella, I’m already in the hotel.
Have you informed your father yet?”
Shortly after, Stella called her back.
Before Sherry left, they thought about the excuses and couldn’t find a proper one.
Hence, Stella decided to let Sherry take the jewelry from Starry Sky Studio and give them to William. He could
distribute them to the employees as benefits.
In this case, their jewelry would extend its fame overseas, and also, they would have a suitable excuse to do this
thing.
William wouldn’t suspect it, either.
Stella asked, “Is the photography exhibition the day after tomorrow?”
Sherry said, “Yep. I’ll go to see your father tomorrow and get his DNA. Then I’ll go to the exhibition the day after. If
everything goes smoothly, I can go back in the evening of the day after tomorrow.”
“It’s alright. I’m not eager to know the result now. You can stay there longer.”
“But, I do want to know the result,” said Sherry. After a pause, she felt the result should be evident, so she should
just calm down.
Stirring the petals on the water, she said, “No problem. I’ll take this chance and have fun then.”
Stella said, “All right. Go to bed early. You must be exhausted after such a long journey.”
“Ehn. Bye, Stella.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter hanging up the phone, Sherry stayed in the bathtub for another half an hour before coming out.
Probably she was too exhausted, or the essential oil in the bath worked. She didn’t suffer from jet lag. After lying
down, she fell asleep soon.
She slept soundly.
At ten o’clock the new morning, Sherry arrived downstairs of the Complex Corporation’s building on time while
dragging a suitcase.
The receptionist greeted Sherry in a British accent.
Sherry answered, “I’m here for Mr. William. I’m his daughter’s friend, and I brought him something.”
The assistant’s office had already informed the front desk ahead.
Hence, the receptionist showed her to the elevator and pressed the button. Then she said, “Ma’am, you’ll be
received after arriving.”
Sherry nodded and thanked her.
When the elevator door was closed, Sherry exhaled.
It was the first time she came to this kind of multinational company. The lobby and elevator were clean and bright.
People were from all over the world.
She could tell the working atmosphere was strict and detail-oriented.
Sherry felt nervous.
While she wondered how she should greet the assistant to receive her later, the elevator door opened slowly.
Looking at the figure standing outside, Sherry said nervously, “Excuse me...”
The man turned around.
Sherry gaped.
She had thought of the possibility of meeting him, but it was way too fast.
Daniel helped her drag the suitcase and said, “William is in a meeting now. I’ll take you to wait in his office.”
“Oh. Okay. Thanks.”
Sherry followed her. Seeing him here rather than in City N, she had felt something different in her heart.
Probably it was because City N was her territory, but this city was his.
She didn’t know much about London, but she felt the familiarity of Daniel.
It was like she was drifting in the endless ocean and suddenly found a lifesaving wood to grab hold of.
Somehow, she felt at ease.
When arriving at the office, Daniel told another assistant, “Please make her an iced Americano.”
The assistant was about to leave. Sherry waved her hand and said, “No, please don’t bother. A glass of water would
be fine. Thank you.”
After the assistant left, Sherry withdrew her gaze. Then she found that Daniel was looking at her. She kept silent for
a few seconds before saying, “The doctor said I needed to drink more plain water. It’s good for my health...”
Daniel didn’t remark on that. He asked, “Had breakfast?”
“Yes. It’s served in my hotel.”
Daniel said, “All right. I’m busy, so I’ll leave you here. If you need any help, let them come to me.”
Sherry nodded. “Okay.”
After the office door was closed, Sherry sat on the sofa, and her palms were full of sweat.
She looked around and ensured there was no surveillance camera in the office. Then she took a walk in the room.
She didn’t see any ashtray, so William didn’t smoke.
She lay prone on the floor next to the desk and looked carefully for any hair.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuddenly, she heard a voice above. “Excuse me, Ms. Perry?”
Sherry suddenly looked up, feeling a bit guilty. “Ye-Yes?”
The assistant held a cup of water and asked politely, “Ms. Perry, did you drop anything?”
An idea hit her mind. While rubbing her ear, she said, “Yeah. My ear stud dropped. I’m... I’m looking for it.”
“Do you need my help?”
Sherry stood up immediately. “No, thanks. It’s too small. I guess it can’t be found.”
The assistant said, “This office is cleaned every day. If we find it later, I’ll send it to you, Ms. Perry.”
Sherry put on a wry smile. “Okay. Thank you so much.”
As she spoke, she sat back on the sofa.
The assistant asked, “Ms. Perry, Mr. William wants to know what kind of food you like. I’ll reserve a restaurant for
lunch.”
Sherry answered, “I... I’m not picky. I have never been here before. Any tasty food would do.”
The assistant nodded. “Okay, I see. I’ll reserve a typical British restaurant then. Ms. Perry, you can have a taste of
our local food.”
“Thanks a lot.”
The assistant added, “Mr. William said you brought him something. He asked me to deal with it on his behalf.”
“Oh, right. OK,” Sherry answered. She walked to the suitcase and pulled out several jewelry boxes. “These were
necklaces, earrings, and rings, including all styles from our studio. Here you go.”
The assistant nodded. “I see. Please don’t worry, Ms. Perry. I’ve told the company operation department. We’ll
guarantee the best publicity for your products.”
Although it wasn’t Sherry’s primary purpose of her trip, it would be fantastic if William’s company could open the
market for their studio.
She said, “Thank you so much for your help.”
