Chapter 737


    Meanwhile in City N.


    Sherry received a call from Ste soon as she arrived at the studio. "Ste, is everything alright over


    there? Did you see the baby?" She asked.


    "Everything is fine, I''ll video call you in a moment. He can walk now," Ste replied.


    "He''ll be calling my name soon then. Tell him my name! He''ll know his auntie." Sherry said excitedly.


    Steughed, "Sure." She continued after pausing for a few seconds, "How''s thing going with you and


    Brandon?"


    Sherry threw herself onto the sofa after she entered Ste''s office and let out a long sigh, "I''m seeing


    him now, aside from other things, he''s an ideal life partner. He''s mature, reliable, kind to his parents,


    has a stable job and vision of his own. He''s not a mama boy and pretty easy going with things, no


    wonder my mom likes him so much."


    She continued, "I might fall for him after seeing and getting to know him further. Rtionship needs


    time anyway."


    Ste pursed her lips. Sherry had a point, as she and Daniel were not destined to be a couple, it was


    wiser to cut the chords now and start over with someone else.


    After a moment, Ste spoke, "Sherry, there is something I need to tell you."


    "Spill the bean."


    Ste held the mobile and said slowly, "I''m nning to give up the fashion week."


    Sherry was stunned, "Why? This is a once in a blue moon opportunity for you."


    Ste then told her everything that Archer said to her.


    She apologized softly, "I''m sorry, I don''t have a choice, the fashion week is about three months away, I


    can''t wait that long to start caring and conditioning my body, the sooner I resolve this, the less would


    the little one suffer."


    Sherry replied, "Why are you apologizing, you silly? I understand youpletely. I''m fine with it, just


    feeling a little sad knowing how much effort you''ve put into your work and finally there is a chance to


    shine… But it''s alright, there is always a chance for those who are well prepared. We could still go


    higher after you''ve regained your health and the little one recovered. The future is full of possibilities."


    "Thank you," Ste said in a quiet voice.


    Sherry and her established the studio from scratch. Though she was the designer, she couldn''t have


    had the chance to focus solely on designing if Sherry wasn''t there to help handle all the other stuff.


    The fashion week was not only a chance for herself, but also a chance to put their brand and name to


    fame.


    Not only her but everyone else had contributed a lot to this. But they were forced to give up because of


    her.


    Sherry added, "Hey, we''re friends. If it wasn''t for you, I''m still only an employee at SG Jewelry, working


    my fingers to the bone. Unlike now, I''m a boss of my own, free and happy. Our studio is quite busy


    lately, giving up the fashion week will lighten our workload. But have you told the organizer about this?"

    Ste nodded, "I called Louis earlier, he asked me to reconsider and get back to him two dayster, but


    I''ve decided."


    "Cool, since you''ve decided not to take part, we should rearrange our work schedules. We shall


    discuss when you get back here."


    "Okay, Sherry…"


    Sherry interrupted her, "Stop saying thank you or apologizing."


    Ste smiled, "Got it."


    After they hung up, Sherry put down the phone and was ready for work. But someone else called.


    She looked at the iing call, hesitated and answer, "Hi Emmett, anything I can help you with?"


    "Are you avable now for a chat?" Emmett on the other side asked.


    In the afternoon, the two met at the restaurant opposite the studio.


    Sherry took the menu and gave it to Emmett, "It was always you who pay the bills, so let me treat you


    today. Though it''s just a simple meal, please don''t mind."


    "Of course I won''t," said Emmett.


    He swept a nce at the menu roughly, ordered two dishes, "This will do," he said as he returned the


    menu to the waiter.


    He turned to Sherry after the waiter left. "Sherry, I want to talk to you about Daniel…"


    Sherry smiled and interrupted, "Emmett, I''m d to chat about anything with you for old time''s sake,


    but I''m not interested in talking about someone else or anything rted to that."


    Emmett paused for a while before he continued, "I wish there isn''t any misunderstanding between both


    of you."


    "I know what are you trying to say. Ste told me." Sherry took a sip of water, "I have to admit that I was


    saddened by what I saw that night and couldn''t stop ming him repeatedly in my heart, but I''ve let go


    of it now. You know well that we were not brought together by love. This rtionship was nothing but


    just my wishful thinking, whilst he happened to have a tiny bit of feelings for me."


    "It''s not entirely like this…"


    "We are adults and I never intended for him to be responsible on anything." She shrugged and


    continued, "Perhaps this is destiny, destiny had it all prearranged. It is only a short rtionship, I was


    nothing but one of his many girlfriends, no … not even girlfriend. Anyway, I had a rtionship with Liam


    and broke up, but life goes on."


    Emmett held the ss in his hand in silence.


    After quite a while, he said, "I just hope that both of you will not be separated due to some


    misunderstanding, since you like each other."


    "I used to share the same thought. But Emmett, will you be able to ept if your girlfriend wants to be


    with you but never get married? Even if you do, what about your parents? I lost my mind because of my


    feelings for him, but I realize now that the reality is different than what I think." Sherry exined.


    "I''m not from a wealthy family but my parents still value traditions. I won''t disagree or question Daniel''s


    point of view but I can''t walk the path with him. This is what I think now."


    Emmett remained silent for quite some time before he managed a smile, "Alright, I understand your


    thought now. Sorry for interrupting today."


    Sherry said, "I know you are concerned about me, so no need to apologize. This meal is still on me


    today. In addition, I''ll send you an invitation to my wedding. Don''t forget to prepare a huge wedding


    gift."


    "Sure, I''ll definitely be there," Emmett smiled.


    At this moment, their dishes were served.


    "I need to go to the washroom," Sherry excused herself.


    She closed her eyes slowly after a few steps and the smile on her face faded away.


    Sometimes, we can convince everyone else with lies, but we can''t make ourself believe it.
