Chapter 64 – She’s not a hindrance
“No.”
Aaron reminded, “The feud between Sherry and I has never been a hindrance to us.”
At least, he thinks not.
Nola gritted her teeth, rubbed her fingers over the knife and fork in her hand, the dinner on her plate was tasteless, and finally, in a slow voice, she said, “Even if Sherry was Monica’s murderer, you could cover up for her again and again, why are you so cruel to me? The other day, Sherry appeared at the sanatorium for no reason, and you didn’t even ask?”
“Even if it was Edith who did the wrong thing, what was she doing there, was she harassing Monica too, Aaron, you can’t be soft, women like that don’t deserve to die.”
Across the room, the man’s eyes sank.
“And you, how do you know that?”
“What?”
Aaron never actively mentioned to Nola that Monica had been bullied at the sanatorium, let alone that she had been bullied by Edith.
Nola’s expression froze, her usual innocence and gentleness fading a little, gradually, from her face.
“I knew it was Monica’s birthday, so …” Nola didn’t finish her sentence, but blinked and looked at the expression on the man’s face in front of her and suddenly thought of something.
“Aaron, you don’t suspect me of colluding with Edith, do you?”
Aaron did not make a sound.
But he looked at her with a particularly strange and cold look in his eyes.
Nola was instantly flustered and hastily explained, “I really didn’t do that.”
“Is that so?”
Edith and the girls, who go around bullying Monica every year, nay he doesn’t notice in order for Monica to have a normal birthday like a normal person.
But Nola, it seems, knows it all from start to finish.
But she didn’t say.
Much less prevented.
Nola’s pupils shifted and she raised her eyes and crashed into his deep frown, explaining slowly and carefully, “I was just concerned about the relationship between my parents and said a few words for her at the Smith Family, you mustn’t misunderstand me, how could I have done that to Monica!”
“Which kind of thing?”
The chill in Aaron’s cold eyes became even more pronounced.
“…”
Nola’s lips opened and closed.
Her nervous hands were covered in fine sweat, but how could she admit that she had been in the know all along.
She was jealous not only of the other women, but also of Monica’s presence, how much thought Aaron had put into Monica over the years, even sometimes leaving her out to dry for ten days in order to go abroad for medical treatment.
She can’t stand Monica’s presence.
What’s more, as long as Monica is in the nursing home, Aaron will think of Sherry when he sees her, and the ties between them will never be broken.
So, knowing this, she even had a darker thought in her mind that if Edith missed and really hurt Monica and made her disappear from this world, then all the problems would no longer be a problem.
A bitch like Sherry can never be half related to Aaron again.
Nola’s breath almost stopped, a watery mist clouding her eyes, “I didn’t do anything to hurt Monica, and if I did, let me spend the rest of my life being rejected and abandoned by you and end up alone until I die.”
She finished, turned and ran away crying.
Leaving the man, a pair of cold eyes narrowed and a chill swept away.
He took out his mobile phone and dialed Eral’s number.
In hospital.
One of the reasons why Sherry has been able to endure this is because of her mother’s love for her, even if the family has long been in tatters, at least she can still hear comforting words from her mother.
She reached out and helped Kate wipe the fine sweat from the corners of her forehead.
“Mum, stop talking nonsense, what will you do if I leave? Jason can’t even look after himself, how will he …”
As we were talking, the phone rang.
There was Jason’s giddy voice over there, “Sherry, you’re so lucky to have so many rich men surrounding you.”
What else he said later, Sherry can’t remember.
The only thing that circled in my mind was, “The money is paid back, and that old man, you’ll be raising him from now on.”
Who returned it?
Sherry put the phone down, jittery.
Aaron is not going to stand up for Jason. If those men did cut off Jason’s hand and kill him, the happiest person in the world would be Aaron.
He will only stomp on it again hard.
How can you help in secret.
Sherry rubbed her phone for a long time before the screen lit up.
It was a message from Andrew, “Let’s meet up tomorrow.”
Sherry’s eyes fluttered as she looked at the words on the screen.
Day 2.
The Night Group’s partnership with the Andrew Group has officially come to an end.
All the secretarial staff were gathered at the door, waiting to greet the Andrew Group, and Sherry was no exception.
Although her mind was even more preoccupied with the operation over at the hospital.
I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it either.
“Here it comes.”
A shout was given and Alger himself came forward to greet them.
In the midst of the crowd, Sherry saw Andrew get out of the car, all mature and steady charm in his hands and feet.
Andrew’s eyes skimmed the crowd, looking for the figure, and was about to step over when Aaron and Eral walked in front of him.
“Andrew, please.”
Aaron offered to sidle up and invite Andrew in, followed by the other department managers as well.
Andrew just had to step inside first.
Aaron gave a look and Eral immediately gathered the secretary department together after they got into the lift, “There is extra work assigned to everyone in the company right now, everyone is heading to the branch office in Yucheng, probably won’t make it back tonight, go back and get ready, meet up at the office in an hour and leave.”
This is a rare occurrence for staff in the secretarial department.
Sherry glanced at her watch and hurriedly ran out the door of the office.
One hour later.
Everyone was standing in front of the Night Building, except Sherry.
Meanwhile, Aaron, sitting in the conference room, was briefed by Eral.
“Sherry was absent without explanation and out of contact.”
Aaron looked at the papers in his hand without looking up, “Should be at the hospital, let her …”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Before the words were out of his mouth, his phone rang.
“Excuse me, do you know Sherry? She’s been in a car accident and she’s in our hospital emergency room.”
Aaron’s face sank.
A few steps later, he rushed out of the meeting room.
Andrew over there picked up on the words and followed closely towards the lift.
“If you have any humanity left, you should leave her alone, she’s really going to die at your hands if you keep this up.” Andrew said in a fierce voice, clenching his fist.
He had always been gentle and polite with people and if it hadn’t been for Sherry, he wouldn’t have lost it so much.
His concern for Sherry was written all over his face.
Aaron felt even more annoyed by his actions, “Andrew, I’m going to see the company staff now, do you have a reason to follow me?”
“I’m going to see my girlfriend now, and Mr. Swift even has to be in charge of such personal matters, so who, exactly, is unqualified.”
“Your girlfriend?”
