Chapter 908 The Business Trip
It was Sheryl''s decision to continue with BM Corporation for herst assignment. However it felt like
some kind of a servitude. Her soul was somewhere else at Cloud Advertising Company. Nevertheless,
she tried to fulfill her duties wholeheartedly. She woke up very early next morning, ate her breakfast
and greeted Amy before she went out for work. But when she arrived at thepany gate, she found
that someone had arrived earlier than her.
"Miss Ye," Sheryl greeted Holley in a faint voice. Ever since Holley had threatened her with Sue, she
could no longer hold Holley with respect. However, since she had to work here, it was unavoidable for
Sheryl to greet her.
Holley looked at Sheryl and smiled. "Sher, you have also arrived so early," Holley replied her greeting
as she took Sheryl''s hand in a gentle confiding sp. She said in an enthusiastic voice, "I thought it
would need a long time for others to walk in. I never expected you toe to work so early. Thank
God, now I can chat with you to kill time."
A glimmer of joy yed on Holley''s face as if there were nothing bad had happened between them.
Holley''s pretense could not evade Sheryl''s eyes. She maintained a diplomatic smile as she slipped her
hand out of Holley''s grip. She realized that Holley couldn''t be underestimated. Holley''s insidiousness
made her frightened.
Sheryl replied maintaining the smile on her face, "This is myst assignment with thispany. I am
just trying toplete my work with my diligence."
She then stared at Holley and continued, "Miss Ye, I will resign from thepany afterpleting this
assignment. I hope you won''t keep me from leaving."
Holley smiled wryly and replied, "Do you still me me for what happened that day?" She stared at
Sheryl with prying eyes.
"Why should I do that?" Sheryl held back her disgust, swallowed and answered in a calm voice. "You
are the leader of thispany. It is only reasonable for you to instruct me to do anything," Sheryl
added looking back at Holley''s eyes.
Holley narrowed her eyes to look earnest and said, "Sher, at that time I had no other choice. I hope you
understand." Holley paused for a moment, heaved a sigh and continued, "Sheryl, you should know our
leave. I had no choice but ask for your help."
Holley pretended to be guilty and added, "I know you me me, but… I hope you can understand my
concerns. It is nothing personal."
"Miss Ye, you are being oversensitive," Sheryl smiled and replied. "Actually I don''t have any hostility
against you. I just… prefer my previous work. Fortunately, there is a chance to go back to it now. So… I
have to say sorry to you," Sheryl added.
Then she continued to exin, "There are many younger and prettier girls who are more suitable for
the post I am holding in thispany. They are all more professional than me. Modeling is, after all, a
profession for young people. My age is not suitable for this job any longer. So I have to prepare a
backup n. I truly understand you, Miss Ye. But… you should also understand me, right?"
"Fine, fine. I understand you, "Holley answered with a half smile. But then she started again with a
mark of disappointment in her voice, "To be honest… I will truly feel sad if you leave BM Corporation. I
had decided to designate you to do behind-the-scenes work. Then at that time, what you need to do is
to train the newly-employed models. But I did not expect that you would be in such a hurry to leave.
Your insistence to leave truly makes me absolutely unprepared and without a back up."
"Thank you for taking the trouble," Sheryl gave a gentle smile and replied. "But I have already made up
my mind."
"That''s all right." Holley heaved a deep sigh waving her hand. "I also know that you wouldn''t change
your mind. But… I still hope that you stay here," Holley persistently tried to detain her.
Sheryl just smiled and said nothing.
Holley stared at her face with an expectant look for a while and finally returned a smile to Sheryl who
just stood there without responding to her request. "Fine, I rest my case then. We won''t talk about this
any more. Now that you have decided, I will not try to pull you back. But Sher, I have to remind you
that…" She stopped to organize her words, "I have to remind you that you must be well-prepared for
this assignment. As long as this project is aplished sessfully, you can leave BM Corporation
sessfully."
Sheryl did not fail to identify the mark of threat in her words. "Okay, I know that." Sheryl nodded her
head slightly.
Sheryl had always been diligent in her work. And now that she had promised Holley, she would do her
best toplete herst project with perfection.
Holley then held Sheryl''s hand again and began to talk about Sue. "I have been so busy these days
that I did not find the time to see Sue. How is she now? I heard earlier that her condition was not good.
What''s her condition now? Is she feeling better now?"
"Yes, she is better now," Sheryl replied with a smile. Sheryl started to feel trapped to have such a long
conversation with Holley. Desperate to break free, she found an excuse to leave and walked into the
coach. Later on, other models also began to arrive. Then the coach was driven toward the adjacent
city.
Sheryl had been spending long hours formting the n for their ongoing project these days. The
time in the coach gave her the opportunity to take a break from her busy schedule and she drifted into
a deep slumber. By the time she woke up, it was already afternoon.
The moment she opened her eyes, she was greeted by Holley''s smiling face. Sheryl opened her eyes
wide and tried to look alert. Holley put on a big smile and stated, "I had decided to wake you up when
we were going to eat lunch. But I found you to be sleeping deeply, so I just gave it up. Here, I have
bought some bread and milk for you. You can eat some."
Holley looked at her watch and added, "We will arrive soon. You just do with the bread and milk for the
moment." Then she turned around and addressed the rest of the staff, "I will take you all to eat a big
meal after we arrive."
"Thank you, Miss Ye."
"Thank you, Miss Ye."
All the models eximed in an unanimous voice.
Sheryl took the bread and milk from Holley''s hand and also expressed her gratitude, "Thank you."
Sheryl ate some bread. They reached the destination in an hour. She carried her luggage from the
coach and followed Holley to check in.
The girl who shared the room with Sheryl was Susan, a newly-employed model. Susan was extremely
beautiful, young and naive. Susan followed Sheryl and always addressed her as "Sher". Even Sheryl
liked her.
After everybody was settled, Holley summoned all the models to take them to dinner. Sheryl was in no
mind to join them so she asked Susan to inform Holley that she would like to excuse herself for the
dinner as she was feeling ufortable and needed to go to bed early.
Susan immediately got worried and inquired in a concerned voice, "Sher, what''s matter with you? Do
you have a fever?"
Walking over to Sheryl, Susan touched her forehead and said, "Thank God, you don''t have a fever."
Susan then joined her brows together and said, "You were fine just now. How could you suddenly feel
ufortable?" She stared at Sheryl''s face with probing eyes.
Sheryl was really amused by this mother goose type concern shown by Susan. "I am okay," she replied
with augh. She then added, "I am just a little tired and want to take some rest."
Hearing Sheryl''s words, Susan released her brows and let out a long sigh. She said, "That''s all right
then. I will pack the food and bring it for you."
"Thank you," Sheryl smiled appreciating the gesture and sincerely expressed her gratitude.
Susan then went downstairs to join the team but could not free her mind from worrying about Sheryl.
Holley furrowed her brows as she saw Susan walking out of their room alone without Sheryl. She
couldn''t help asking, "Susan, where is Sheryl? Isn''t she joining us?"
"She is feeling ufortable, and she would like to take a rest in the hotel room," Susan replied
promptly. "I will get her food packed for her, don''t worry," Susan added. But Holley looked enraged and

was far from being pacified from her response.
"But, we can''t leave her alone," Holley said with furrowed brows. "This is the first party we are having
aftering here. How could she not join us? Moreover, I need to discuss tomorrow''s arrangement
with you all during dinner," Holley continued.
Then Holley stared at Susan and said in a stern voice, "You go upstairs and call her to join us now. You
just tell her we will wait downstairs until shees down."
