Chapter 660 Hire A Nanny
"Because..." Sheryl paused, wondering how to exin it to Shirley. Then she added with a
smile,"Because I did something wrong and Tony is upset with me."
"What did you do, Sher?" Shirley asked. She lifted her head and looked at Sheryl with curiosity.
"You are too young to understand these things," Sheryl told her as she patted her head. Sheryl
suddenly realized that she desperately needed a nanny to help her take care of Shirley. She just did
not have enough time to devote to Shirley.
She went to an caretaker provider agency the same afternoon to hire a nanny for Shirley. She met and
interviewed many candidates. Finally she found one woman who seemed suitable to her requirements
and to her liking.
"Can you cook?" Sheryl questioned her.
"Yes, I can," she answered. She looked directly at Sheryl with kind and honest eyes. She also looked
very excited and emotional at the chance of being hired.
"Okay, I think you are suitable for the job. I am willing to hire you as my daughter''s nanny. Please report
for work tomorrrow itself." Sheryl swiftly decided and hired her on the spot. She went home and got a
room ready for the nanny. The nanny also promptly reported for work early next day.
Sheryl admitted her inside and showed her the room. "This will be your room from now on. Also, this is
my daughter, Shirley," she introduced. "Shirley, say hello to…" She realized she didn''t know the name
of the old woman. She turned to her and asked,"What''s your name, please?"
"Just call me Nancy," answered the new nanny. Nancy had registered at the domestic agency after she
left Dream Garden. She had managed to survive by doing some part-time jobs all these years. She had
been shocked to see Sheryl there yesterday. She was hoping that Sheryl would select her and had

been ted to get the job.
She had always felt sorry about Autumn and was finally soothed and overjoyed to know that Autumn
was still alive.
"Hello, Granny Nancy!" Shirley greeted her with a smile. Looking at Shirley, Nancy couldn''t stop her
tears from falling.
Sheryl was a little confused and perplexed at Nancy''s reaction. She said to Nancy,"My name is Sheryl
Xia. Your job is very easy. Just clean the house and take care of my daughter. But..."
She paused and then continued with embarrassment,"I just came back from abroad and do not have
much money. I can give you only three thousand a month. If that is not suitable to you or short of your
expectations, I will understand."
Nancy interrupted her by nodding her head,"Three thousand a month is good enough for me. I will take
the job."
Charles had given Nancy enough money when she left Dream Garden. She could have easily retired
and spent the rest of her lifefortably. But she chose to stay in the same town and find other jobs.
She liked Autumn and hoped to get some news about Autumn''s whereabouts. At the sight of Sheryl,
she had be very excited. But she was confused as to why Sheryl assumed her to be a stranger.
"You can rest for some time before you start your work," Sheryl suggested to her.
However, Nancy didn''t rest. She started to clean the house. In her own way, she wished topensate
Autumn. After she finished cleaning, she began cooking dinner. Sheryl felt very pleased to see the
delicious dishesid on the table.
Nancyid the table and was going to clean up the kitchen, as Sheryl called her back. She told
her,"Nancy, you also join us for dinner."
"That is very kind of you. But I don''t think it is appropriate for me to eat at the table with you," Nancy
politely refused.
"You must eat with us," Sheryl persisted. Then she smiled and added,"You don''t have to bother about
all those restrictions here. I would like us to be like family and eat together."
Nancy finally agreed. She was happy that Sheryl was still so kind even after all these years.
In Shining Company
Charles went back to his office after he sent Sheryl back. David thought that his boss would have some
big news to share as he had seen Sheryl in Dream Garden. Today, Charles came to work without
changing his clothes and David couldn''t help but wonder what happened to him.
''Maybe... Mr. Lu didn''t go homest night. If so, then where did he go?'' he wondered.
"What are you thinking?" Alice patted David''s head suddenly. "Make sure all the files Mr. Lu needs are
ready. We also need to pick the employees from BM Corporation a littleter," said Alice.
David quickly gripped her hand. "Alice, did you notice that Mr. Lu was wearing the same clothes as
yesterday?" he asked with concern.
"So what?" Alice asked with a puzzled look. "All of Mr. Lu''s clothes look the same," she added.
"No, no... you don''t understand." David persisted,"I think Mr. Lu didn''t go homest night. Maybe he
was with his wife."
"What nonsense are you talking?" Alice cast a worried nce at David and said,"Do you want Mr. Lu to
punch you? How can you be so bold as to make up stories and gossip about Mr. Lu? You must be
crazy, David."
Then she added,"Mrs. Lu has fully forgotten the past, right? Mr. Lu is trying his best to court her and
win her back. However, it will not be easy. I think he still has a long way to go before it can happen."
"Don''t underestimate Mr. Lu. He has already..." David suddenly stop speaking. He realized he had
Alice pulled his ear. "What were you going to say? Why didn''t you finish your sentence?"
"Ouch!" David screamed as his ear ached. He begged,"Alice, release me, please. The other colleagues
are watching us!"
"I won''t unless you promise to tell me the whole story. What happened between Mr. Lu and his wife?"
Alice demanded to know.
"Release my ear first!" David pleaded helplessly.
As soon as she released him, he told her about the day he saw Sheryl in Dream Garden. "I went there
very early that day and met her in the house. So I guess, she must have stayed the night. Mr. Lu is
really a smart man. He has managed to regain his wife''s heart in such a short time. That''s awesome!"
David was filled with admiration for Charles.
"Do you want to be as smooth and smart as Mr. Lu?" Alice asked. Then she warned him,"If you dare
date other women, I will beat you up!"
"Of course darling, I won''t dare!" David promised with a smile.
When the files were ready, he prepared to take them inside to Charles. Just then, Anthony barged in
angrily and tried to enter Charles'' cabin. David immediately blocked his way and asked him
impatiently,"Why do youe here again? Don''t you get tireding here every now and then?"
David remembered thest time Anthony hade. He and Charles had got into a fistfight and were
both injured. That had happened not so long ago and yet Anthony was here once again.
"Get out of my way!" Anthony yelled at David in contemptuous anger.
Charles realized Anthony hade as he heard his angry voice. He had been speaking with Charlie
on the phone when he heard the raised voices. He immediately said,"Charlie, I have to hang up now as
something hase up. I promise you I will deal with the matter of Sher."
Charlie had called Charles to inform him about what had happened to Shirley. Therefore, Charles knew
at once that Anthony hade to question him after losing his temper with Sheryl.
