A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 176

With a silent nod, William loosened his grip little by little. There were tears falling from his raised head. Feeling his arms empty, his heart ached. "No matter what, the position of my wife will always be reserved for you!"

Sherry's footsteps stopped as she ran away but she still turned to leave!

This time, she was the one who had escaped from the party. Only this time she was on her own, whereas last time she was with William.

Watching her gradually walking away, he laughed silently. Pain showed on his handsome face. Why did he always hurt her? Perhaps letting go of her was the most right and helpless choice.

"William! Why did you let Sherry go?" Seeing that Sherry had left, Liam came forward in dismay and was shocked to find tears falling down William's ghastly white face.

"We're done!" William turned sadly, "Liam, I'm going to New York on business tomorrow!"

"Why?" Liam wondered and chased after him. "Why is that?"

"She's Clark's daughter!" That was all William said.

"Oh my God!" Liam froze for a moment. "But you can't be blamed for that incident. It was Clark who was driving in the opposite direction. He's is mostly responsible for it!"

"But in the end, he died because of me. If I hadn't been so aggressive, maybe he'd still be alive today!" William sighed.

"You're leaving?"

"No! I'm going in to sing!" With that, William pushed open the door. At that moment, Ashley and Sarah were hysterically singing the saddest love song ever.

The crowd didn't know why Sarah was singing so hysterically. William looked back at Liam, who shrugged and leaned closer to him, "Women are like that, and they need coaxing! Just cajole her!"

***

As a result, William joined Ashley and Sarah, and together the three of them sang the sad love songs of the moment.

"Where's Sherry?" Leon and Liam clinked their glasses and drank beers.

Liam shouted back, "Gone!"

Because of Sherry's sudden departure, everyone was again feeling very uninterested.

On the way back, as all three men had been drinking, they were unable to drive.

Sarah took a look at Leon, who was drunk, and said to Ashley, "How about you take Leon back, and I'll take William and Liam?"

"I'll take William, and you take Leon!" Ashley refused.

"Are you really not going to get along with him anymore?" Sarah paused, and still asked, "I'm not taking Leon. He's your assignment!"

But the three men were simply too drunk for the two women to carry them out. After a while, Ashley was panting, and the feeling of nausea came back.

"Ugh..." She darted to the bin by the door to throw up. Luckily she was only puking air and didn't throw up.

Sarah froze, and suddenly it dawned on her. "You're pregnant?"

Ashley turned back in panic and covered Sarah's mouth with one hand. "Keep your voice down!"

Thankfully, neither of them heard.

"You're really pregnant?" Sarah asked.

"Yes!" Ashley didn't hold back.

Sarah nodded, but there was something odd in her eyes. After a few seconds, she instructed, "You must keep an eye on your baby, give birth to him, raise him by your side, watch him grow up, and see him call you mummy. That must feel so good!"

"Sarah?" Ashley wondered. What was Sarah talking about? Why would she want to have a baby if she wasn't going to raise him?

Sarah, however, suddenly smiled, "Let me know when you give birth. I'll be there to look after you and the baby!"

"Thanks!" Ashley was just touched and didn't say anything else. "I'll be sure to tell you and my sister!"

Sarah ran her hand over her belly and added suddenly, "I want to have a baby too! I want it so badly!"

"Then you should hurry up and find a man to get married!" Ashley said.

"But I only love my brother!" With that, Sarah looked back at Liam, who was drunk on the couch. Her eyes were a little hurt and confused, "But he didn't want me!"

"Why?"

"He probably couldn't accept that I grew up around him! He said it felt incestuous, even though we're not real siblings!" Sarah gave Ashley a big smile. "Forget it, let's wait here until they wake up. We can't carry them anyway. Let’s go outside and talk!"

"Okay!" --

Sherry went back to Sutton family alone. Dan and Sammy immediately ran towards her.

Sherry stroked the two children's faces and smiled.

"Mummy, where's Mr. Rowland?" Dan was sensitive. Having not seen William for three days, he immediately sensed that something must have happened.

"He ..." Sherry hesitated. "He's busy!"

"Why won't Uncle come and stay?" Dan asked again.

"Dan, I'm tired and want to go and rest. Will you play with Sammy?" She was just too tired, both physically and mentally.

"Mummy, did Daddy make you angry?" Sammy asked worriedly.
