******************************Listen to the song of Sheri in the gala( ̄︶ ̄)↗ *******************************
Devon stops from what he was supposed to do and advanced toward his laptop.
He again googles the name Sheri Hoal and sees if there are any videos of her.
She found one and that was the time she is singing together with the band in a charity gala of the Hoal. He presses the start button and listens to her voice.
Devon's world stop. It is the same voice.
That was the time Sheri was singing and wanting to impress Eric. She was looking at Eric when she's singing. It is a song of a love confession. She possesses an ok voice but when Devon is looking at where her eyes are directed. His heart starts to grip in pain.
"I think I am going insane."Devon thought to himself. The man who recently came look at him and wonder. Devon looked at him back.
"Find her and don't ever lay a finger on her. I want to see her personally."Devon said.
One thing for sure in his dream he heard that voice. The voice of Sheri and that woman has the same sound in his dream.
The man was amused while studying the photo of Sheri.
"This bimbo is skilled at hiding? hmm... very impressive"The man said. He knows how the Goori and Copper works. So, for a rich lady who can skillfully hide from them is astonishing.
"I repeat don't lay a finger on her, just find her and escort her to me," Devon said.
"Hey easy, Mr. Goori. I am your friend, not your servant. I will try my best."The man responded.
The secretary of Devon knocks on the door.
"Sorry to disturb, sir Devon and sir Kenzo, but sir your grandmother is on the phone." The new secretary was nervous while looking at the two-man. He is not new when it comes to dealing with high people but this time he felt he is looking at two emperors. Both have an oppressive aura.
"You better answer your grandma. I will start to look for this attractive bimbo." Kenzo said.
After Kenzo left. Devon is sitting in his own office alone. He told to his secretary to tell her grandma he's busy.
Devon is puffing his cigarette while thinking and looking at the picture of Sheri. So many thoughts are running in his mind until he gradually drifts to sleep. He's not addicted to cigaret, but it's a habit that if he's thinking he likes to smoke.
"If I go first will you look for me again?"The voice sounded, and Devon keeps on looking at where that voice comes from but he couldn't find where.
"If I go first will you look for me again?" again that voice asked Devon.
"Who are you?"Devon furiously asked.
"If I go first will you look for me again?"The voice keeps on asking him.
"Yes, I would but who are you?" Devon asked and the voice slowly drifts away.
"Wait, who are you?"Devon shouted suddenly the image of a woman who is smiling appeared but in very far distant and starts to vanish. Devon pursues her but he already vanished. Devon looks at his hand who almost touches the woman.
"Who are you?" Devon whispers said.
Devon stir from his nap when his phones start ringing.
"Are you coming?"Janice asked while crying.
Devon was quickly awoken. He was silent for a minute. He's still processing over his dream and now Janice is calling him. He starts feeling guilty because she is his fiancee and he dreams of another woman.
"Don't cry, I am coming," Devon said and gathers his jacket and promptly walked toward the location of his car and drive toward the apartment of Janice.
Eric on the other side cannot even stand still and cannot concentrate on his work. His thought is on Sheri. The way she challenges him causes him, to double his effort to look for her.
He keeps on looking at the latest picture of her and keeps on remembering the woman who bumps into him.
"Tsk, you want to know? Wait for 15 minutes and a call will come, asking for back up." Sheri said.
The man was silent. Sheri got hold first his gun.
Sheri already readies the gun she's holding and in place of the knife.
After 15 min indeed, a call came but Sheri clicks the gun making sure if the man will ask for help she will in no doubt press it.
When the call went in. The man was shocked and starts to sweat a lot.
He looks at Sheri.
"What do you want?" The man nervously asked. He recognizes this kind of feeling. The woman behind him is prepared to fire the gun she's holding. The way she breathes evenly indicates that she is calm and can indeed shoot him without any second thoughts.
"I want a gun. This is a good one, but I want as many as you have." Sheri said.
The man in no time nodded.
"Alright at the back of my car I have dozen." The man said.
"Alright then get out," Sheri commanded the man and the man indeed went out.
Sheri in no time drives his car and drive to where her car is and put all the gun she found in the car. One thing that the man forgot is a journal of people whom he has a transaction with. Sheri smiles while reading.
Later, She initially removes the video chips that contain the video of the car and bring it home. Before she went home, she put into the fire the car of the man. Arriving at her home, she gathers all the gun put them in a shopping bag and redies them in her room. She put in the oven the video chip from the police car, and it erases the whole scene. They can never retrieve the video no matter how they do it.
Sheri knows that she is already being monitored by the men of Eric. She saw a few men and women eying at her house and her. She even said hi to them. She did that to make sure they think she is innocent.
When she gathers everything. She first scans her house upon entering. She is extremely cautious. She is not anymore the stupid Sheri that Eric thinks. In every single move, she does. She makes a plan and that plan is to ensure that either she will survive in this punishment world or not.
