A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 155

William said, “And she has your daddy’s baby in her tummy.”

“Oh, my gosh!” Sherry covered her mouth with hand, trying to stop herself from shouting.

William shook his head and asked, “Could you accept that you daddy will have a new baby even younger than your son?”

Sherry was astonished without saying anything to him.

In the study of Cohen’s house, there was a tall man who was smoking beside the window. He was going blank right then and seemed to forget to flip the much ash from the cigarette.

It was dark at night; Sherry encouraged herself to come to see Cohen Sutton who was lonely standing beside the window.

She was trying to say something but failed to say anything.

This was her biological father.

But Sherry did not know how old he was, what he loved and what his hobby was; she had not yet called him “daddy”, neither asked him how he knew Mrs. Jones. She refused to know all the truth because she hated to betray Clark. Sherry would always keep in mind that it was Clark who raised her; he was her daddy forever.

However, as soon as seeing the lonely man, Sherry still felt some of sad. It might be from the biological relationship; she was still worried with seeing him like this.

She was also selfish to see Susan accompany him for his remaining life. How she wished she could forget the love between Susan and Leon! She hated to be so selfish.

Finally, Sherry called him in a lower and hoarse voice slowly, “Boss…”

Cohen turned around and was surprised, “Sherry, you are here.”

Sherry saw the familiar man but did not know what to say.

Cohen continued to ask with great care, “What happened? You are not happy with William?”

“No!” Sherry was moved by his continuous care about her; she knew he tried to compensate her for his absence for years. Unluckily, she was not a kid anymore.

“So?”

“Susan…”

“Uh!” Cohen’s eyes followed Sherry but not said anything; he was waiting for her to tell him something.

Sherry raised her head to look at him and said slowly, “Susan is pregnant…”

Cohen got stunned by these words; he lost his mind. Susan had a baby?

Sherry passed him a paper on which there was an address checked by William, “This is her address! She lives in an easy home. I heard she will give birth to the baby.”

It took Cohen a minute to accept it. The information made him try to explain to Sherry, “Sherry, I will handle it. You are my only daughter forever. All my wealth will belong to you. Anyone else cannot take it!”

“Boss, I don’t talk about it. I will not get your wealth.” Sherry was embarrassed and shook her head; she did not get his point, “How will you deal with it?”

Cohen finished his cigarette and got his coat to go. He said, “Don’t worry. I am going now.”

Sherry thought he was going to pick up Susan. But she was wrong; Cohen misunderstood her.

Susan left for G City which was around two hundred miles from H City.

At midnight, when Cohen knocked at the door, she was greatly surprised to see him just outside her home. She was unhappy while holding the door frame and covering her chest, “Why are you here?”

Cohen watched her and said, “You had a baby in your tummy?”

Susan did not expect him to ask the question, just looking at the handsome man who sounded coldly. She asked him angrily, “How did you know?”

“Is it mine?” Cohen was obviously annoyed and pinched Susan’s chin. Though he was unwilling, he had to tell the trembling Susan, “Susan, you cannot keep it.”

He was not so cruel; he just would not like to see Sherry got sad.

He was forty-five years old and not young anymore, fifteen years older than Susan. Even Sherry’s son was five years old; how could he allow the baby to come to the world?

Cohen was also afraid that Sherry would not admit him as her daddy once the baby was born. At that moment, all he was eager for was to be admitted by his daughter.

Susan burst into tears soon after hearing what he said; she could not believe it and shook her head. “No! It’s none of your business. This is my baby! I will not let it go. It’s nothing related with you; I had another man. You can’t ask me to terminate it!”

“Susan, I know it’s mine. You are not the type of woman as you talked. But Susan, don’t keep it!”

Cohen clenched his fists. He hated himself to do it as well!

Susan calmed down and said to him, “Fuck off!” She pushed him away to the door.

Keegan on the stairs listened to the talk between them. He got to understand why Cohen had to be here so late at night; he knew Cohen very well for being with him for years.

Keegan believed Cohen did it for Sherry.

Just then, Cohen said, “Susan, you know I have never been a loser. Now please go with me to the hospital or I take you there?”
