Sherry was about to turn away, Daniel pulled her. “No. We can continue chatting. What else would you like to chat
about?”
Sherry turned to look at him, rolling her eyes. She put her hands in the pockets. “You haven’t answered my question
yet.”
Daniel said, “In the DNA test earlier, the result showed Channing is not blood-related to Mr. William. However, I
agree with you. If there’s another chance, they can do it again.”
Sherry didn’t answer.
It seemed that the conversation had come back to the starting point.
She kept walking while saying casually, “How likely is it that this paternity test result was wrong? Besides, this
matter should be important to Mr. William. You must be quite cautious when doing it, right?”
Daniel pressed his lips in silence.
Sherry looked over at him. “Can you answer a question? Don’t lie to me.”
She sounded unusually serious.
Daniel looked into her eyes and said, “All right.”
Sherry asked, “Did you help them do the paternity test?”
“No, I didn’t.”
Sherry smiled, looking ahead. “Okay. That’s my question.”
Daniel slightly frowned, feeling that she had gotten onto something.
He said, “Sherry, do you...”
Sherry paused and pointed at the building in front. “It’s your hotel, isn’t it? We’ve arrived.”
Daniel turned to look. They had arrived indeed.
Sherry waved at him. “I’m heading home now. Good night.”
After she took a few steps, Daniel followed her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSherry was confused.
Daniel said, “It’s almost midnight. It’s not safe for you to go home alone.”
Sherry was wordless. “Why didn’t you think of that earlier? You asked...”
“I’ll escort you home.”
Sherry was speechless.
She had a reason to believe he had done it purposely.
However, Daniel evidently had become quiet when walking Sherry back home. He lowered his head, lost in thought.
Sherry was relaxed.
The way back seemed to be relatively shorter.
Soon, they arrived at the gate. Sherry said, “All right. I’m...”
“Sherry,” Daniel interrupted her.
“Yes?” Sherry asked.
Daniel continued, “The paternity test, there was a mistake in the process, but it can be explained. Can you please
not tell Ms. Radomil for now?”
Sherry looked solemn. “So, you’ve admitted it.”
“What did I admit?”
“You’ve admitted rigging the result.”
Daniel shook his head. “No. It’s not like what you think.”
Sherry asked, “Then, what is it?”
“I can’t tell you clearly for the time being. May I explain it to you after returning City N?”
Sherry looked at him. “You don’t need to explain it to me. Like you said just now, you weren’t the one who had done
the test. I trust you. However, you must know whether Chan is Mr. William’s biological son. You should know also
that for Chan, it's not just a matter of a falsified paternity test report.”
Daniel frowned more deeply.
Sherry added, “I don’t understand your plans and schemes and what not. However, you should know how evil
Jeffrey Radomil had been at that time, what he had said to Chan, and what was the impact and torture on Chan.”
After that, Sherry waved at him. “I’m going upstairs. Just go back to your hotel.”
Looking at her receding figure, Daniel didn’t speak.
He was correct. Sherry hadn’t only known the truth but also had solid evidence. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said
so.
Daniel exhaled. He turned around and dialed a phone number.
...
After arriving home, Sherry rejected her mother who wanted to chat with her. She entered her bedroom, slumped
on the bed, and pulled out her cell phone. She planned to call Stella, but it was too late. Hence, she messaged Stella
instead.
After lying for a while, she put down the phone and went to get some water.
Seeing the person sitting in the living room, Sherry asked, “Haven’t you gone to bed yet, Mom?”
Mrs. Perry answered while patting her legs to relax, “I’ve sent your father to bed earlier. I want to take a rest.”
Sherry walked over with a glass of water. “Do your legs hurt again?”
“Nothing serious. You know I have the old sickness. I’ll feel better after resting.” Mrs. Perry let her sit down. “You’ve
been out with Daniel for a long time. What did you talk about?”
Sherry curled her lips, put down the water glass, and massaged her mother’s shoulders. “Mom, do you like him a
lot?”
Mrs. Perry heaved a sigh. “It doesn't matter whether I like him or not. The most important is whether you like him.
He fits your requirements. Otherwise, your father and I won’t...”
Sherry knew her mother didn’t want her to miss such an ideal man.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe said, “Don’t you think he’s unreliable? He looked like a playboy. Aren’t you afraid he would dump me shortly
after we get married?”
“I dare him!” Mrs. Perry said, “My daughter is so pretty. Who will have the heart to dump you? Your ex-boyfriends
are blind.”
She grabbed hold of Sherry’s hand and added, “Sherry, listen to me. Whether you are in love or in a marriage, you
both should invest your efforts in the relationship. Even if a man treats you so well at the beginning, you can’t trust
him. It takes time for you to know his true colors. I don’t mean to hang on Daniel forever. If you don’t like him, I
won’t push you. Do not compromise so easily”
Sherry lowered her head in silence.
Mrs. Perry patted her. “All right. If you don’t have anything to deal with, you should go back to City N tomorrow. You
don’t need to be here with your father and me. We both are fine. You can’t delay your work.”
Sherry hugged her, playing at being cute. “I don’t want to go back.”
Mrs. Perry smiled. “That’s OK. If you don’t want to go back, we’ll support you.”
Sherry rubbed against her in her arms. “You are awesome, Mom!”
“Am I not the person who treats you as a tool to have a grandson?”
“I... I said that in anger.”
Mrs. Perry held her shoulders and said, “I don’t mean to have a grandson. I hope you’ll have someone to
accompany and protect you. Your father and I are so far away from you. If you encountered a man like Liam Keith
or Brandon Chang again, what can you do?”
Sherry whispered, “In fact, I have plenty of friends in City N. They take good care of me.”
“But your friends will have their beloved men or women, their own families, and lives. Except for your husband, no
one can be with you all the time.”
Her words made sense.
They poked Sherry’s sore spot in her heart.
Leaning against her mother’s shoulder, Sherry said, “Mom, in fact... I have a crush on a man...”
