A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 189

"Ugh..." A familiar aura enshrouded her and made her feel quite at ease.

He lifted the blanket and laid down right on top of her.

She started to panic in a second, “No! Don’t! William!”

He began to kiss her lips, “You deserve a beating; you’re mine and mine alone. Are you a bit disappointed that you didn’t get laid by someone else?”

“Really?” She started to believe it was him. Maybe it didn’t happen, but she remembered calling out his name, and she wanted to hear his voice by her ear.

“Sherry, it’s me! It’s William…” There was his voice again; that familiar sound rang directly into her heart. “It’s always been me calling you; have you forgotten?”

“William, it’s really you! I was scared to death!” She suddenly relaxed and her heavy heart instantly felt lighter. She began to start whimpering, then buried her head in his chest and began to weep.

“It’s me! It’s always been me! Silly girl, don’t worry about other things. Even if someone did something to you, so what? You’re still my woman, for life! Don’t worry, I won’t let harm come to you ever again!” He comforted her in a soft voice, with a hint of sadness and pain.

“I thought… I thought it was someone else…” She held firmly onto his neck for warmth and comfort. “I was so scared!”

She began to cry out in tears.

“Alright, silly girl, don’t cry! You’re clean and pure! Haha… I’ve never seen a woman who distrusts her man this much! Come on, stop crying…” William’s laughter was so close, right next to her ear.

Sherry was stunned; she wiped away her tears, and felt slightly abashed. “William, I was afraid I became tainted! I was afraid…”

He reached out his slender fingers and pressed against her red lips. “No matter what, you’re my woman! I want you, understand?”

She was touched by his words and nodded, “Thank you!”

But even if he said he wanted her no matter what, if something did happen to her, how could she possibly have the strength to face him? She couldn’t do it.

“Silly girl, can you believe me now?” William sat next to her and held onto her. He really wanted to nap, but there was no time, he still had too many things to do.

“Mhmm!” Sherry nodded and took in a deep breath, finally feeling much more relaxed.

“I have to head out!” He said, “I’ve got a lot of things to take care of. Keegan will send you home, alright?”

“Mhm!” Suddenly, Sherry asked, “Um, you’re certain those people didn’t touch me, right?”

“Of course not!” He replied unwaveringly.

“Then, who, who were they? Why would they do that to me? What have I done to them!” She couldn’t figure out where they came from. She was cared, and the ordeal left an ominous mark in her heart.

“It was Darcy’s doing; she was adamant, but she’s at the police station now! You should not go out lately; stay home. It’s not that I won’t let you out, but behave and stay home, understand?”

“Darcy, she…” Sherry couldn’t believe it. How could that woman be so vicious? Just thinking about a woman wearing a mask as those men tried to rape her in the forest made Sherry shudder all over. “Why is she doing this to me?”

“She’s become a bit paranoid over Lucille’s business! Maybe she’s like Lucille and their mother with a hereditary mental illness. I’m afraid she will continue to pester us.” William locked his gaze on Sherry’s small face, “Will you blame me for this?”

“What’s there to blame?” She asked confusedly.

“For only sending Darcy to the station.” He said as he continued to look deeply at her.

She said nothing. Thinking about those men that almost raped her and how paranoid Darcy was, Sherry just quietly said, “If she’s really mentally ill, the law won’t do anything to her; maybe she will attempt a second time. I don’t care what happens to her, but I’m afraid of going through that again.”

William felt a pain in his heart as he saw the fear in her eyes. He froze for a moment and he frowned. If something like that were to occur again... He shook his head, “It won’t happen again, Sherry; I’ll make sure of it, trust me!”

Although her vision was still a bit blurry, Sherry nodded. How would he handle it? Kill Darcy? She shook her head. If Darcy could send five men today to come after her, what about next time? What new plan will she have next time? Maybe Darcy would even target Sherry’s children. If she remained paranoid like this forever… Sherry did not dare think further; she suddenly felt a terror in her heart.

“Phone call! Phone call!” Sherry said in a hurry, “I need to make a call!”

“Who do you plan to call?” William asked perplexedly, but he still handed her his phone.

He was worried at how anxious she presently was.

“I’m calling my father.” Sherry said in a flustered manner. Right now, she thought about her father and children, and directly called Cohen. “I have to get my father to protect the kids. I need to be home with them; I don’t want anything else to happen. William, I’m afraid!”

She gripped the phone tightly. Watching her exert such force, William felt a pain in his heart.

“Dad? It’s me!” Sherry trembled and said.
