A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 78

"Then are you willing to take a woman who had sex with another man last week? Would you? Would you take a woman who has other children? I mean I have other children besides Dan! I was with the child's father last week. Would you still take me?" She almost lost her temper and she looked disappointed, painful, and hopeless, "William Jones, I am telling you this! I am even worse than a prostitute. I am less dignified than a whore! I was never intended to start a relationship with any man. I just wanna live a peaceful life. So please, stop screwing around me. Tell me, what should I do so that you’d leave me alone?"

Why was he always like this? She really can't afford to screw around with him! She just wanted to live an ordinary life. She would rather be strangers with him!

William suddenly narrowed his eyes and took a step back with a blank look. The way she acted made him feel sorry for her. It made him guilty to see her disgrace and looked down upon herself like this. He never expected that she was deeply hurt. Suddenly he was afraid of how painful she would be when she knew the truth! How should he tell her?

He suddenly pulled her and held her face. He then lifted her chin up, and forced her to make eye contact with him, "Sherry, I'm sorry!"

She was startled. Tears of sorrow were in her eyes. He looked almost as sad as her. "I don't need your apology. Please stop bothering me, okay? I'm very tired! Really really tired!" She looked at him and said.

She wasn’t sure if it was because of him, Sierra, or the kid. She suddenly realized that she couldn't afford to die at this moment! There wasn’t even a corner for her to hide when she wanted to cry.

"I'm sorry!" He didn’t know what to say anymore besides sorry!

"Stop insulting me, will you?" She sounded a little aggrieved.

"Okay!" He agreed.

"Do you really hate me?" He murmured as he stared at her. There were countless undercurrents flashed in his deep-set eyes. His look was like a predator ready to swallow its prey. However he kept being rational.

She shook her head, "I don't hate you. I hate myself! I'm filthy. I mean it, stay away from me! Don't ruin your purity. OK?"

He stood still and his voice sounded nasal. He kissed on her forehead. "Silly girl, you are not filthy. No one can look down on you!"

Her heart sank. The kiss hit her like a hammer. It was heavy and complicated. She looked at him in hesitance. There were regrets in his eyes, so she was lost at the moment.

"You don't understand!" She lowered her head. A tear fell, and he caught it. The tear was burning hot in his palm.

"I do!" He said stubbornly.

But she pushed him abruptly and left as if to flee.

William was left in the room and he looked inexplicably melancholy. At one point he didn't know where to go, "Sorry…"

Sherry ran into someone and suddenly raised her head. Through blurry eyes, she wiped away the tears, and she saw that it was Morrie.

"Is it you? Mr. Rainville?"

Morrie was also surprised about running into Sherry everywhere. "Uh! It's you!"

"Why are you here?" Sherry was a little surprised. She saw him at Rowland’s last time and ran into him again today. Was he related to the Rowland’s? "Mr. Rainville, can you tell me where is my son? You must know where that person lives, right?"

Morrie was shocked. Just then, William walked out. When he looked up, he saw Sherry and Morrie standing in front of the house.

Morrie looked at them in helplessness.

William shook his head slightly. Morrie sighed, "Actually, Miss Murray. I don't know anything. I don’t even know what that person looks like, so I can't tell you anything!"

"You have never seen him?" Her heart was as if just been emptied while murmuring. Her tears couldn’t stop dripping.

Morrie couldn't stand seeing her cry. However William came over. "Hello! Mr. Rainville!"

Seeing them greeting each other, Sherry wiped her tears in panic. But the tears came down soon after they were wiped off.

William walked over to check on her. He then over a handkerchief, "Are you OK?"

Instead of replying him, she wiped the tears with the back of her hand. Suddenly she was taken aback and asked sharply, "You know each other?"

William frowned, and then nodded, "Yes, I have a business relationship with Mr. Rainville!"

"Isn't he Rowland’s manager?" Sherry remembered meeting him last time.

"No! I'm not Rowland’s manager. I happen to have a business relationship with Mr. Rowland!" Morrie immediately explained.

Although Sherry was suspicious, she didn't know what to ask anymore. She was a little disappointed and turned and walked away.

Morrie asked worriedly as she was leaving, "Was that appropriate?"

"I have no way to back down!" William sighed. "Don't show up at the company and here for now!"

"Okay!" Morrie was a little surprised, "I will go to Austria on a business trip then. Give me a call when you want me back at work!"

"Sorry about that!" William patted him on the shoulder.

"Sherry, what's the matter with you?" Sierra was a little worried when she saw Sherry crying on her way out.

Sherry raised her head to look at her. She was shocked and wiped her tears. She wouldn’t let Sierra see her tears and entered indifferently.

"Sherry!" Sierra grabbed her arm, "What happened to you?"

She pushed her hand away angrily, "What do you want? Do I know you?"

"Sherry!" Sierra’s expression looked complicated, "I know... I shouldn't have said that just now..."
