As soon as Sherry finished speaking, Elliot looked helplessly awkward.
He had to admit that Sherry was good-looking, and he liked her.
However, no matter how much he liked her, he couldn’t marry a woman in an ambiguous relationship with another
man. Hence, he told his mother about Sherry’s past and quickly deleted her from his contact.
Much to his surprise, it had been only one day, Sherry had a new boyfriend. They seemed to have progressed a lot,
and they were even talk about getting married?
Due to some male pride or what, he called out to her.
Elliot couldn’t compose himself after Sherry mocked him. He said ironically, “You have too many men around you.
Of course, you don’t need me to take care of you.”
Then, he looked over at Daniel and said in a compassionate tone, “Sherry has told you already, hasn’t she? She has
been entangled with a man for a long time. They also hang out together pretty often. Dude, you’d better take a
look at other women instead and find a clean girl to get married to. Otherwise, you’ll be a cuckold.”
Sherry found that a man who's ordinary but overconfident, would always show his ugly side after his true colors had
been exposed, just like Liam Keith and Elliot Ford.
Sherry wondered how come she had met such scumbags.
However, before she spoke, Daniel said indifferently, “Really?”
Elliot thought that Daniel had believed him. Before he continued, Daniel said affectionately, “But, I fell in love with
Sherry at first sight. I must marry her. As long as she’s willing to be my wife, I can do anything.”
Sherry was speechless.
She wondered if Daniel had lost his mind.
Elliot’s expression changed. “Dude, you...”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDaniel looked at him and said coldly, “I believe as long as I love her deeply and treat her well, she’ll love me one
day. Otherwise, if I can’t move her, it means I’m not charming enough and can’t compare to the man she loves.
What do you think?”
Elliot tightened his pinch on the garbage sack, blushing. However, he couldn’t utter any word to retort him.
Daniel walked up and patted him on his shoulder. “Thank you so much, Dude. Thank you for telling me there’s such
a powerful competitor. I must try my best to win Sherry’s heart. When we get married, I’ll invite you to be my
groomsman.”
Then he held Sherry’s hand and left.
Elliot was standing motionlessly. The man’s tone and attitude were not rude just now, but Elliot felt as if he had
slapped him in the face. He felt embarrassed and ashamed.
Out of the community, Sherry pulled out her hand. “Why did you say those words to him?” she asked.
Daniel paused his pace, raising his eyebrows. “Should I tell him directly I was the man you've been entangled with?
It works. We can go back now and tell him. I’m afraid you may find it difficult to explain to your mom later, though.”
Mentioning it, Sherry ground her teeth. “Now you know that. Why didn’t you think about it when shoving that thing
into my hands?”
Daniel looked over at her. Although she didn’t make it clear, he realized what she meant.
He asked, “Did you bring it home?”
Sherry blushed.
“How did I know? I wrapped it in a T-shirt. When my mother did the laundry...”
Daniel instantly turned around and walked back.
Sherry stopped him hurriedly. “What are you doing?”
Daniel said, “I want to tell the truth to your mother. Probably, we can get married tomorrow.”
Sherry said, “You’d better not go too far.”
Daniel looked back at her with a smile. “Have you agreed?”
“Me? No way... I didn’t say anything,” Sherry stammered. “All right. All right. Hurry up and go back to your hotel. I’m
going home now.”
Daniel asked, “Aren’t you afraid that man would wait for you downstairs?”
Sherry frowned. “Why would he do that? Wait for me to scold him?”
“Don’t ever underestimate how crazy a man could be if he loved you but couldn’t win your heart.”
Sherry was wordless.
She wondered if he was implying himself.
Elliot was a mama’s boy, a mediocre person who got above himself. However, he was a college lecturer, so he
cared about his dignity. Probably, he would mock her, but he could hardly do anything crazy.
Besides, security guards were patrolling her community. She didn’t think there would be any safety problem.
Seeing that she hadn’t been convinced, Daniel changed his tactic. “I feel dizzy. Can you accompany me back to the
hotel?”
Sherry said, “I can help you hail a cab. You took good care of me in London, after all.”
Daniel smiled. “Right. I took care of you in bed as well.”
Sherry glared at him. “Shut up!”
When she pulled out her phone to hail a cab, she received a message from Stella.
She glanced at it and frowned, slowly putting away the phone.
Daniel asked, “What? Are you worried about me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSherry coughed. “Yeah. I’d better walk you back. If you vomit in the taxi, you’ll be sent to the police station.”
Daniel shrugged, having no comment.
Although he didn’t know what had changed her mind, he didn’t care about the reason. He looked upon the result.
He said, “Let’s go.”
From Sherry’s community to his hotel, they would walk for more than twenty minutes.
They walked shoulder by shoulder in silence.
After a while, Sherry chose a subject. “Well... I don’t quite understand.”
Daniel said, “What is it?”
Sherry answered, “You’ve asked me about Channing before, remember? We also talked about Jeffrey Radomil.”
Daniel nodded. “Yeah.”
“Then, do you think...” Sherry looked at him and asked, “Chan looks like Jeffrey Radomil?”
Daniel paused for a while. He answered, “I don’t know much about Jeffrey Radomil, so I’m not sure.”
“But, judging only by their appearances, do you think they look like each other?”
Daniel was silent for a few seconds before answering, “No, they don’t.”
Sherry said, “I think so, too. A man like Jeffrey can't have an outstanding son like Chan. Coincidentally, Stella
showed me the photo album of her childhood. I discovered that her father looked similar to Chan when he was
young. Have you seen that photo before?”
“No.”
“When we go back to City N, you can take a look. By the way, has Mr. William done the DNA test with Chan? Has it
been confirmed he’s not Chan’s biological father?”
Daniel asked, “Why do you suddenly ask me about this?”
Sherry looked at him innocently. “We’re chatting, aren’t we? I just chose a subject to chat with you. If you don’t
want to talk about it, forget it. I’m going home.”
