She was not qualified to visit Dad!
Sherry cleaned up the withered flowers and put the fresh flowers she brought. Then she looked up at the affable smile of the
man in the picture on the tombstone.
Sherry was sad, "Dad, I come to see you! Are you fine?”
"I'm the only one left in our family, Dad...”
At this moment, the phone rang. Sherry took a deep breath and picked up the phone. "Ms. Murray, Mr. Rowland wants you to
get to the office at 4:00 p.m.!"
"Ms. Hines, I..."
"Sherry, we have a meeting this afternoon, and Mr. Rowland wants you to be in charge of a project. Sherry, if you do this
project well, your future will be bright. You are likely to be promoted from an obscure secretary to a special assistant of Mr. Rowland, and your salary and treatment will be greatly improved. Come on, I believe in your ability! Remember to arrive at the company on time at four o'clock in the afternoon!"
“Well” Sherry was a little speechless.
Work! Work!
She had been working part-time since she was 15. Until recently, she took a lot of trouble to get into The Rowland Group. She
thought she could become a white-collar worker, but she didn't expect to be harassed by her boss, and her boss was a very handsome man. He could have any kind of woman he wanted. She really didn't understand why he wanted to harass her?
"Forget it! Don't think about the mess:’
Sherry looked at her dress, which could cover the love bites William made. So she went straight to the company in this dress.
When Sherry arrived at the company, it was time for lunch. Everyone went to the restaurant for lunch. She bought a packet of
instant noodles and cooked instant noodles in the office area.
Suddenly, a deep voice came from behind, "Don't eat instant noodles in the future!"
Sherry shivered with fear, “Mr. Rowland!”
After yesterday's thing, they were embarrassed when they met again. God, why did Sherry meet William again?
No!
Sherry, to be exact, was embarrassed. But William didn't seem to be acting strangely. He even took it for granted that they
met. At the moment, he was staring at her, standing a meter away from her desk.
Sherry's face turned red.
“Don't tell me you were off today because of what happened last night." Looking at Sherry who was blushed, William spoke
coldly, and then he strode over with no expression, with his high-grade silver gray suit having no wrinkles.
As a result, Sherry's face turned redder.
Looking at the shy woman who was wearing a dress that suited her age today, William thought she was much more beautiful.
In an instant, William remembered something. He squinted and asked Sherry again, “Is it really because of last night's thing?”
"Yes" Sherry didn't deny it, "Mr. Rowland, stop playing with me, OK? I want to continue my life. I don't want my job in The
Rowland Group ruined by rumors!"
"Why?" William quickly approached Sherry, and he kept staring at Sherry's red face.
"Mr. Rowland, you can have all kinds of women you want. Why do you play with me? I'm not beautiful, and I don't have talent.
I really don't have anything. Would you please stop playing with me? Well, I'll eat lunch” Sherry would never do anything that violated the moral bottom line.
Sherry finished her words and sat down to eat noodles.
William suddenly felt like laughing. He seemed to understand her mode of thinking. What did it have to do with the thing that he wanted her?
William quickly turned his head, but he couldn't help laughing. William coughed to hide his sudden change of emotion. When Sherry felt puzzled, William strode toward his office.
What did he mean?
Did he agree to stop harassing Sherry? He didn't seem to agree.
Sherry was lost in thought. It was difficult to have a good life. Sherry even wanted to let God strike her with a thunder. She couldn't work at all now!
"Sherry, I haven't seen you all morning. Where have you been?" Liam came over again. "You eat instant noodles? It's too simple:
"Mr. Brooks!" Sherry politely greeted Liam, and then lowered her head to cover her red and swollen lips.
"No wonder you are so thin, instant noodles are not nutritious. Don't eat instant noodles anymore:
"Late?" Liam walked to her, patted her on the thin shoulder, then casually put his hand around her and said, "Can I take you out to meal?"
"If you are free, you can go to Japan on business this afternoon!” Another deep voice broke Liam's mind.
Then William and Sherry both saw William who was standing at the door. He was upset when he saw Liam's hand on Sherry’s shoulder.
"Mr. Rowland! Can I let Ms. Murray accompany me?" Liam didn't get angry at William's arrangement, but rather generously expressed his willingness to go ona business trip. "Ms. Murray, how about I take you on a business trip?"
As soon as Liam's words came out, Sherry immediately felt William was staring at her.
The man was staring her with piercing eyes.
“Mr. Brooks, you seem to be very busy. I won't disturb you." Since he was going on a business trip, he would need to make
some preparations for it.
Then she sat down and ate her instant noodles.
She was eager to get rid of Liam. Liam raised his eyebrows, and then did something that also surprised himself, "Mr. Rowland,
I'm afraid I can't finish my work smoothly without an excellent assistant like Ms. Murray with me’'
What?
What was the situation?
When was Sherry so popular?
