Chapter 119 – The person you least expect to see
Let Jason pay for those sins of the past.
As for her, she too will disappear cleanly from his life.
“Understood, Mr. Swift,” Eral answered with a drooping head, and then thought of something else and moved to turn around, “Also, Ms. Shen would like you to attend the ribbon cutting ceremony at her studio tomorrow and be interviewed with her.”
The man’s eyes darkened.
Since returning home, the Garcia Family have been actively preparing for the engagement and are eager to send Nola to the Swift Family right away.
“Mr. Swift, are you going?” Eral, unable to discern the meaning of his own president, spoke up once again and asked.
Aaron flipped open the next document, his face expressionless, “I’m in.”
With the Garcia Family, he had a lot of business to discuss, and since this marriage was already destined to be a deal from which there was no turning back, it was only natural that he should maximize the benefits.
…
“Mr. Swift, could you come a little closer? Now take a picture of the two of you together.”
On the TV screen is the image of Aaron standing side by side with Nola, Sherry sitting on the floor, bowl of noodles in her hand, a sarcastic smile on her lips.
Nola can laugh so much around Aaron knowing that he doesn’t love her.
“She should have been an actress, she would have won a big award.”
Sherry didn’t bother to watch them play out in public and simply turned off the TV screen.
On her phone were several messages from the hospital, and thanks to Aaron’s orders, her mother was able to be well taken care of after the operation, with no medical or nursing bills to worry about.
But it all seemed to Sherry to be just Aaron’s way of covering up for Nola in order to gag her.
Sherry looked at the dimly lit room in front of her and snorted.
“You can’t have everything you want in this world, Nola, see you at the engagement party!”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Sherry packed some simple bags, then glanced at the time on her phone and headed straight to the Biber Family.
She had arranged to meet with Andrew beforehand and had taken the project proposal she had prepared.
“This is …” Andrew flipped through a few pages, his eyes not hiding his appreciation, “You designed this?”
Sherry nodded and said seriously, “When I was working with Andrew Group before, I found that there were some areas that could be refined and refined, but I wasn’t in the project department at the time, so I’m not at liberty to talk about them. If you think it has merit, it’s a favor I can return.”
Andrew’s fingertips tightened, “Sherry, we don’t need to talk about this between us.”
Sherry didn’t hesitate and continued, “I’m here today and there’s something else I want to ask you for, I need to forge a fake work certificate to prove I’m an employee of a Garcia Group subsidiary and, I also need a little money.”
The only person she could think of who was likely and able to help her was Andrew.
“You …”
Andrew opened his mouth to ask something, but swallowed hard at the thought that it might be something she didn’t want to hear.
“Andrew, you have friends over for a visit?” Mrs. Biber’s voice rang out at the door.
Sherry immediately stood up and hung her head very low, “I’ll go first.”
She didn’t want to meet the Biber Family and didn’t want Andrew to be embarrassed.
But she was a little too slow, and Mrs. Biber’s dignified face showed her displeasure when she saw that the guest of honor was not Tacy, the daughter of the Stephanie Family.
“Andrew, is this an employee of your company?”
Sherry was dressed simply, just a white shirt with jeans, and at first glance, just plain cheap stuff.
Andrew frowned and stepped forward, “Mum, this is my friend.”
In fact, Mrs. Biber knew Sherry a few years ago, when she went to Andrew’s college celebration and complimented her on her beauty and talent.
But it is one thing to appreciate, it is another to allow one’s son to associate with a girl of such origins.
Mrs. Biber opened her mouth for another rant, but Andrew responded with a few drinks and pushed her way upstairs.
He turned back around and Sherry was no longer in place.
Andrew hurried out after him, “I’ll send someone to prepare what you want right now, but can you tell me why … you’re still trying to mess with Nola?”
He had heard about her departure from Night Group.
“Since, Aaron has been willing to let you go, why not take this opportunity to start your own life.”
In her ears was the wind, quietly brushing through Sherry’s hair.
She nodded, “Thanks, I’ll find a way to pay you back later.”
Beyond that, she did not want to make any explanations.
Instead of describing her feud with Nola, she should have kept quiet.
Besides, whether she would mess with Nola or not, Nola and the Garcia Family had no intention of leaving her alone. The landlord of the house she was currently renting had approached her several times, trying to persuade her to leave, or a neighbor had told her that someone had paid the landlord a separate sum of money.
The condition was that she be asked to leave.
Nola can’t be blamed if she wants the fish to die.
Three days later, the news of Aaron and Nola’s impending engagement spread throughout the city, while Nola’s personal studio was officially launched and many people threw in the towel on her impending status as the matriarch of the Night Group.
And at the same time, the new project of Night Group was about to start, and the man’s eyes deepened a little as he looked at the names of the partner companies on the back.
“This land, to be demolished?”
It just so happens to be the same block that Sherry rents.
“Yes Mr. Swift, all the occupants have moved out of the place.” Eral then reported, “Sherry has also checked out of the lease and left, but no trace of where she went afterwards, she was last seen at the Biber Family.”
The man’s brow furrowed momentarily.
Was she that desperate to fall into Andrew’s arms?
A thousand thoughts turned into a cold smile at the corner of her lips, “Whatever she lives for, it’s none of my business.”
Would the Biber Family really allow her to marry Andrew?
The truth is, Sherry disappeared for twenty days and not only could Aaron not find out where she was, but Andrew and Nola had no idea either.
The morning of the engagement party.
Nola sat in front of her make-up mirror, still looking at her phone messages, and instructed Noelia, her assistant behind her, “Tell security to watch the door, make sure no unsavory people are allowed in.”
“Okay, Miss. Nola.”
Noelia immediately smiled and said, “You are so beautiful today.”
Nola was so taken with this comment that she immediately lifted her chin and smiled softly in a beautiful way, “Of course I have to be beautiful enough to deserve him.”
Meanwhile, David hurried in with his wife Amanda.
“Nola, are you ready? Get out there and welcome the guests, your cousin from the Lord’s side of the family will be here soon!”
Nola was half surprised.
“Surprisingly …”
Over the years the Garcia Group has been able to stand its ground thanks to the help of the Seattle Garcia Group, a truly prestigious family.
“Be sweet, maybe it’s your cousin Turin who’s coming.”
Nola nodded her head, nervous and excited, as Turin was the most highly regarded business genius in the family.
It must be because she’s getting engaged to Aaron, all her good fortune is here, and if she can get a few words of appreciation from that lobbyist, won’t her future career …
Nola had just settled on the steps when she saw the last person she expected to see today.
“Sherry!”
