A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 56

She thought about all the back end work that required her attention and absolutely had no time to rest. She totally didn't think

much of the fashion catwalk. Once she got off the stage, she changed back into her work attire.

 

"Sherry, Mr. Rowland is looking for you!" Alice went backstage to look for her.

 

Sherry tensed up and immediately became uneasy. She suddenly didn't know how to face up to William.

 

“Sherry, hurry up, Mr. Rowland is waiting for you!” Alice rushed her.

 

“Okay!” Sherry nodded, “Where is he?”

 

“In the car!"

 

“Oh!” Sherry had no choice but to go and went into William's car.

 

William sat in the back seat of the recreation vehicle. Once Sherry got in, he ordered the driver to drive.

 

“Mr. Rowland, I haven't finished my work!” Sherry said calmly. The more nervous she was, the calmer she appeared.

 

He gazed at her with disdain. Sherry was stunned, “Mr. Rowland, my work isn’t done!” She said again.

 

William looked forward silently and maintained an emotionless expression. He totally disregarded and ignored her. Sherry was stunned. Why did he ask her to come into his car?

 

In the recreation vehicle, his coldness slowly penetrated her heart. She suddenly felt that he was angry but she didn't know

why was he angry.

 

“Stop the car, I want to get out!” Sherry shouted.

 

William finally turned to face her and said calmly, “Who allowed you to do the catwalk?”

 

“There weren't any more models!” She replied.

 

“You are not a model and are my secretary. What right do you have to reveal yourself and do the catwalk?”

 

“I'm just your secretary and not your wife. I’m worried that I didn’t do my job properly and worry that you want me to

compensate you thirty million yuan. Mr. Rowland, are these reasons enough?” She asked. Her tone was calm but she was actually trembling from within her.

 

He looked at her.

 

Her hair was done for the fashion show. The hairstyle emphasized her large eyes and although she had an outburst of

emotions, she looked like a beautiful fairy who descended from the sky.

 

He looked at her and suddenly became dazed.

 

“..." Sherry saw that he was speechless and was staring strangely at her. She suddenly felt very uneasy and uncomfortable.

 

“Did you call to seek my permission?” William's tone was cold and emotionless.

 

Sherry was stunned.

 

“Ms. Sherry, your mistake is due to your oversight. There are many ways to overcome the problem. Did you get onto the stage because of your desire to become famous overnight or was it in the interest of the company?”

 

She was bewildered and her head buzzed. Did he accuse her of doing that to be famous?

 

She suddenly laughed like everything was unreal. Like a porcelain doll that could shatter at any moment, “Mr. Rowland, you're

right. I want to be famous! I’m so eager to be famous that I’m going insane!”

 

He pursed his lips.

 

But as soon as he raised his gaze and looked warmly at Sherry, he saw her expression and immediately regretted what he had said.

 

There was pain in Sherry’s expression, she rapidly turned away and a tear rolled down her cheek and said coldly, “Mr. Rowland,

 

this work is done and was very successful. I did not cause any losses to the company. Can I resign now?”

 

William's cold and chilling expression took a further dive, “No!”

 

“Why?” Sherry couldn't believe it and looked at him. What gave him the right to deny her resignation?

 

In his mind was the scene of her on the T-shaped stage and she was being looked at by everybody. William suppressed his

fury and said, “Don't think that just because you stepped in for the model and saved the occasion meant that there weren't any financial repercussions. You are after all not a professional model.”

 

Sherry turned and looked at William's calm expression. Although he was calm and said logically, she knew that he was being

unreasonable. Her heart sank and her face turned pale.

 

“Then there should be a time limit!” Sherry remarked coldly. A moment ago she told herself not to be weak but now why was

she scared of him?

 

“Three months!” He said.

 

Sherry's face turned pale, these words made her think about what Mr. Fox said which was the same time limit that she

couldn't refuse.

 

“Okay, I hope that you mean what you said!” Sherry patted her forehead, sighed, and then smiled radiantly. It's a good thing

that this was just work but then she felt the pain and bitterness. Why did William also start to bully her?

 

After Sherry said, she opened the car door and got out of the car. She said formally, “Thanks Mr. Rowland for sending me

back!”

 

After bowing, she turned, smiled bitterly, and left.

 

“Sherry...” He was unable to get out the words. William was unable to control himself and smacked the car seat. The pain in his knuckles suppressed his desire for Sherry.

 

The driver was startled and didn’t dare to say a word.

 

When he saw Sherry walk away, William started to frown, what was the matter with him?
