A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 75

Sherry felt very constrained, uneasy, and nervous. It was like the night five years ago. She felt scared and hesitated. Suddenly he was longing for that initial feeling with her. To think that a woman who gave herself cleanly to him could cause him to long so much for her!

“I’ll go and see how the kids are!” Sherry didn’t want to feel so awkward. She always felt very constrained when she was with him. After saying this, she practically ran away from him. A sharp look glared at her back as if he could look straight into her heart. His gaze locked tightly on her back view causing Sherry to tremble even more.

After playing, eating, and drinking in the amusement park for an entire afternoon, the kids became tired.

“Let’s go home!” Sherry looked at the day and it was starting to get dark. She had to go to the supermarket to buy some more groceries as there were four people eating tonight.

“That’s great! We can go to eat Auntie’s cooking!” Sammy was the first to yell happily.

“But you already ate the entire afternoon!” William was dumbfounded.

“But they don’t taste as nice as Auntie’s cooking!” Sammy said.

“Then let’s go back quickly!” William felt that they were like a family!

The car stopped at the supermarket, “Mommy, let’s go and buy the groceries together!”

“Okay! Slow down!” Sherry shouted.

As they got out of the car, a lot of people looked over with envy. The security guard even said, “Sir, madam, your twins are so cute!”

Sherry was stunned, smiled awkwardly, and didn’t know what to say.

William calmly replied, “Thanks!”

The two kids went to get the trolley while Sherry and William walked behind. He leaned nearer to her, “It would be great if Sammy and Dan were twins!”

She looked at him at the same time as he did. Suddenly she felt as though she fell into his dreamy eyes. Her heart jumped and she admitted that his eyes were very attractive.

“That’s totally delusional!” Sherry laughed, “They don’t even look alike!”

“Fraternal twins! Next time we can say that they are fraternal twins! I find that Dan increasingly looks like you as he grows up!” William winked at her.

Sherry smiled momentarily, “Yes, we look alike. A lot of people said that Dan looks like me. I have a very common look.”

He was totally speechless! He had some doubts within him. Logically speaking, Sammy should look more like her. Why did Dan look more like her than Sammy?

At this moment, the phone rang suddenly. William took out his cell phone and said to Sherry, “Go ahead, I’ll take a call.”

“Okay!” Sherry went into the supermarket with the two kids. A lot of people were envious of her when they saw the two children with her.

“Sammy, what do you want to eat?” Sherry asked as she browsed.

“Anything will do, as long as it was cooked by auntie!” Sammy said obediently.

On the other side, William received the call.

“Master!” The caller said.

“Go ahead!”

“The results of the investigation are out. Ms. Murray indeed picked up a child and in these five years, she didn’t live with a man. Her records were very clean! Daniel is five years old and based on the time, he can’t be born by Ms. Murray!”

William nodded, “Are you certain she had never given birth to another child?”

“Yes, absolutely certain!”

“Okay!” William nodded, “Send the detailed report to my office tomorrow!”

After ending the call, his gaze shifted to the fresh produce area and at the three of them. There was a trace of tenderness in his eyes and he felt very surprised that this simple life was actually what he desired!

He rushed forward and saw Sherry staring at some French beans.

“Buy this? How about this? This is the best!” William picked the one which was the most expensive.

Sherry slapped his hand, “No, not this. We’ll get the ones on discount!”

He was puzzled.

“Uncle, there are vegetables on discount! We always buy discounted vegetables. You aren’t frugal. Mommy doesn’t like anyone who wastes money!” Dan explained.

William’s heart ached. Had she been buying discounted vegetables?

Eventually, they bought William’s choice of the freshest and most expensive because he will be paying for it. He started to grab a lot of groceries and then a bunch of snacks for the kids ignoring Sherry’s objections.

When he opened the boot of the car, Sherry saw a huge box and that box was very familiar.

She was stunned for a moment.

William looked over and saw Sherry’s expression. He felt strange initially but then understood. He looked at the box and said, “I don’t understand how some people think to have her child sell adult items!”

She was deflated and didn’t know how to respond. But she also didn’t want to appear weak, “You are also not a decent person to buy so many!”

When they were having dinner, the doorbell rang suddenly. Sherry was surprised as to who could visit them at this hour. She went to open the door.
