A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 98

She felt embarrassed. What was she thinking? She thought about what Celia said to her the other day. Celia told her that she seemed innocent on the outside and was not in the inside. She was the lustful kind of woman.

Sherry thought about it and Celia might be right!

“I didn’t eat anything and entertained you all day, shouldn’t you at least make me a meal?”

“You…” Sherry was tongue-tied.

William parked the car by the road and Sherry got off the car. Celia was already waiting at the entrance.

She stared at the royal blue Bugatti and was taken aback. She walked over, but she didn’t go up to Sherry. Instead, she knocked on the window near to the driver’s seat.

William wound down the window and peeked his head out, “What?”

“Mr. Rowland, for the first time you made a good decision, you brought Sherry back to me. Otherwise, I would have go to you and get her back!” Celia wanted to give him an earful. She didn’t think that he would halt her and take Sherry away in the airport.

William was stunned, but then he smiled, “Miss Hickman, Sherry is fortunate to have you as a friend!”

“Stop your flattery. Tell me, what do you think about Sherry?” Celia pressed her hand against the car window that was wound down halfway. “I’m telling you, don’t you dare bully her. I don’t care if you’re my brother’s friend or whatnot. I’ll give you hell if you ever bully Sherry!”

“Celia!” Sherry walked around the car and tried to pull Celia away, “Let’s go in!”

William snickered, he didn’t answer any of Celia’s question. Instead, he asked, “I want to bring her on holiday. Can you take care of Dan in the meantime?”

What? Celia was dumbfounded.

“Hey! You haven’t answered my question!” Celia wasn’t going to let him off the hook.

William looked at Celia and turned his head towards Sherry who looked distressed. His gaze softened, “She’s my lover! Miss Hickman, are you content with my answer?”

Celia was shocked, but she then laughed abruptly. She replied without hesitation, “Sure! Go on your holiday and I’ll take care of Dan. Sam…Is it Samuel? I also want to see meet Samuel, bring him to me. I’ll bring both of them on a trip!”

“Celia!” Sherry’s heart was beating fast as she listened to their conversation. He said “lover”. He announced that in front of Celia so seriously. She felt touched.

“Wait, one more question1” Celia tapped Sherry on the back as she said, “William, you have to promise that you will never abuse Dan. Dan is also my dear child, nobody can treat him badly with me around!”

William thought she was joking, but he nodded and replied, “You’re thinking too much! Dan is a cute child, how could I abuse him? Can I go now?”

“Fine!” Celia wasn’t expecting William to say that, but she was very satisfied with his answer. “Okay, Sherry. Let’s go in, we’ll drink till we drop!”

William glanced at Sherry and his eyes flickered. He wound up his window and drove away.

Celia stared at the Bugatti as it passed her by. She was conflicted. “Lover”, was she good enough to be his lover? Did she have the right to love somebody?

“What are you looking at?” asked Celia as she lightly tapped her shoulder. Celia was elated, “Sherry, this guy is so handsome. I heard that he was a women-killer, but he got subdued by you!”

“Stop talking nonsense! I didn’t do anything!” Her face was beet red.

Celia smirked. She then noticed a hickey on Sherry’s neck, she smiled even more wickedly. She inched close to Sherry’s face and grinned, “Sherry, can I ask you a question?”

“What?” Sherry was confused.

“Did you guys just did it?” asked Celia as she laughed, “Tell me, how’re his skills in bed?”

“Celia…” Sherry pushed her away. She wanted to dig her hole and stuck her head in it. “You…you’re so mean!”

Celia laughed out loud. “I see, you’re saying that he’s great in bed. Look at your face, it’s as red as a tomato! Hahaha… Okay, I’ll stop teasing you. Let’s go in!”

They walked into the restaurant and saw Susan. She was sitting by the window and was dressed up very nicely as usual. She looked like an independent woman.

“Sue is over there!” said Sherry.

“Yeah!” Celia turned around and saw a person with a large build standing not far away from the column. It was her brother, and he was looking at Susan. Celia knew that her brother always stared at Susan whenever she was here.

Sherry looked in Celia’s direction seeing that Celia halted in her tracks. She noticed that Leon was smoking in the corner of the restaurant and was staring at Susan.

She was taken aback and was puzzled.

“Let’s go over there!” Celia yanked Sherry with her and walked towards Susan. Susan was sitting alone. She ordered a cup of coffee and a steak. The steak was untouched.

“Sue!” Sherry hadn’t seen her in a long time. The first and last time they met was during the fashion show.

“Oh! Sherry, it’s you!” Susan was surprised. She noticed that Celia was there as well and was slightly startled. But she smiled brightly as she said, “Celia, how are you?”

Celia sat down in front of her and said intrusively, “I’m fine, but someone isn’t!”

Sherry didn’t know why Celia was talking like that. She lightly yanked her shirt.

Susan didn’t mind Celia, she smiled and sipped her coffee.
