Man, what's wrong with you? novel Chapter 44

The crowd was swarming around Sherry. As Jeremy watched this entire scene unfold, Jeremy raised his eyebrows in displeasure.

He turned slightly to wrap his arms around Sherry in an attempt to protect her from the crowd.

Irked, Sherry lowered her voice and barked, "That's enough!"

Sherry absolutely despised it whenever Jeremy tried to put her under his control.

An obnoxious combination of Jeremy's perfume and his unbuttoned collar sent Sherry into a strange rollercoaster of emotions.

"If you stay still, I'm not going to move," Jeremy whispered in her ear.

Arrogant as he was, it seemed that he had forgotten that they were surrounded by other people.

The attention was on Steve now. If just any of them turned their heads and saw Sherry, the consequences would be dire.

Sherry then carefully tried to take a step back.

Unfortunately, this only allowed Jeremy to dominate her further.

"Jeremy, why are you so impatient?" Sherry snapped, trying to wriggle herself free from his grip.

"Am I that obvious?" Jeremy's answer was so indifferent that Sherry didn't know what to say.

She had said everything she could think of and used all kinds of excuses she could think of. Still, Jeremy didn't budge; he kept his hand tightly gripped on her slender waist.

"I'm going to the washroom. Let go of me!" Sherry said, still struggling.

"No. It's Steve's birthday today and this is the most important moment. Just wait for a while, and I'll go with you." Jeremy was easily able to come up with an excuse to not let Sherry go.

Sherry protested, "But I don't want you to go with me!" 'It was clear as day that I don't want to be anywhere near him. Why the hell would he think that I would be okay with him coming with me to the bathroom?'

Sherry merely heaved a deep sigh in frustration.

After Steve gave a few words, his birthday cake was then lit up. Everyone merrily sang him the birthday song, even Sherry.

All the while, Jeremy still hadn't taken off his grip on her waist. She was starting to feel her body grow numb in discomfort.

As she watched Jeremy from the corner of her eye, she could tell that there was a faint smile on his face. Sighing, she grew even more vexed. No matter how hard as she tried, she couldn't get him off her.

After the festivities, the crowd began to disperse. Sherry shot Jeremy a cold look. "Are you going to let go of me now?"

They already danced and even kissed. Sherry figured there was nothing else Jeremy could do.

Sherry's patience was quickly running out. As Jeremy gazed into her eyes, he slowly let go of her waist.

Heaving a sigh of relief, she turned in an attempt to leave. However, to her surprise, she suddenly felt something grip her hand once more.
