Chapter 958 Gender Equality
Little did Heron knew what his daughter was going to do. She didn''t even care about the consequences
of her bold move.
"Miss Xia, so you can understand me, right?" Helin said seriously, looking at Sheryl. "I know that it
sounds crazy but you have to do something crazy when you are young. Otherwise, you''ll only regret
not doing so once you''re old. I don''t want to have regrets when I''m old."
"So what do you want me to do?" asked Sheryl. She had been listening to thedy but still couldn''t
understand what Helin was asking her to do.
"Miss Xia." Helin forced a smile and looked at Sheryl. Then she said, "Since that night, Roger has been
avoiding me. I want to propose to him but... he doesn''t wish to see me now."
She quickly grabbed Sheryl''s hand and continued, "I know that you are a benefactor of Roger. he will
definitelye to see you as soon as you call him. Moreover, you are a nner and I want you to n
my proposal."
Helin paused for a while before opening her mouth again. "My birthday will be in a few days and I
would like to hold a wonderful birthday party. There will be a lot of mediaing there. Thus, I want to
arrange the proposal on that same day."
She was staring at Sheryl with her begging eyes. Her desperation was so real that one could almost
taste it in the air. "Miss Xia, I have no choice. It is only you who can help me. Please!"
However, those actions made Sheryl hesitate for a long time. She swallowed hard to calm herself
before saying, "Have you really thought about this? Aren''t you afraid of getting turned down after
getting all these things ready? What would you do in that case?"
A frown appeared on Sheryl''s face as she thought, ''Howe children aren''t considering the
consequences nowadays?'' She shot Helin a questioning stare. "Have you ever thought that it would be
you and your father who are going to be embarrassed if ever?"
"No." Helin stared at Sheryl with absolute conviction and said, "Roger has been avoiding me because
my father doesn''t agree with us. I believe that he still loves me. I believe that Roger would marry me as
long as I could stand for him."
"He should be the one proposing to you first if he really loves you." Sheryl advised Helin to think twice
because there would be no chance to regret if Helin would make a mistake.
"Does that even matter?" was Helin''s unconcerned reply. "Nowadays, this society has promoted
equality between men and women. It doesn''t matter who proposes as long as we''ll live happily in the
future."

Helin resisted budging even after what Sheryl had said. Hence Sheryl couldn''t help but smile wryly.
"Fine, I agree," she said.
That answer from Sheryl made Helin instantly beam with happiness. "Don''t worry, I will not owe you
anything in terms of money. What you should do is to hold an amazing and wonderful birthday party.
Moreover..."
Helin stopped for a second and then continued, "You must find Roger for me, please. My birthday will
make no sense without him."
"I cannot promise you anything but I will try my best," Sheryl sighed. "I will call Roger. However, I
wouldn''t be able to do anything if he decides not toe."
Helin was suddenly dumbfounded. It took a few seconds before she was able to smile again. "No. He
wille as long as it is you who would call him."
''Too optimistic, '' thought Sheryl as another smile cracked her beautiful lips. Soon enough and she was
already asking Helin about what her requirements were. She took notes for her client and just stopped
doing so after noticing that it was already dark.
Sheryl closed her notebook quickly and shot Helin a polite nce. "It''s gettingte. I have to go home. I
will work out a n as soon as possible. I''ll show you the draft. Feel free to ask me any questions if
there''s something you would like to change."
"Yes, it''s alreadyte. Would you mind joining me for dinner?" Helin asked Sheryl. However, Sheryl
shook her head slightly and replied, "Sorry, It''s toote and I have to y with my kids."
Hearing that, Helin smiled and said, "OK, I won''t keep you."
Sheryl went straight to the Dream Garden after getting out of the tea house. Standing in the yard and
looking inside, she could see that the lights were bright inside their house. There was also a burst of
feels so like home.''
Her feet moved fast towards the door and she opened it excitedly. It was only then she saw Arthur and
Amy inside the house.
Sheryl stepped forward and grabbed Amy by the arm gently. "Grandma, why are you here?"
"We are worried about you. You didn''t call me aftering back. You didn''t even miss us. Thus, we
have toe here," Amy said as she shot Sheryl an emotional nce. "Wash your hands and have
dinner."
Sheryl walked to the washing area to wash her hands. She was done cleaning her hand when she
found Charles and Andy talking together. The two looked dignified while sitting next to each other as
they seemed to be discussing something. However, she didn''t know what they were exactly talking
about. Sheryl rushed to them and asked, "What are you two talking about?"
"Nothing," Charles said simply. "Work."
That one-liner reply made Sheryl shrug her shoulders. She didn''t think too much and just decided to
help Amy serve food.
After making sure that Sheryl was gone, Charles turned to Andy. "A person I sent to follow Sheryl told
me that someone in ck was following her until she arrived at the kindergarten. The man and Sheryl
met. However, my man didn''t see what the man looked like because he was too far away from his
location. I think that man is Ferry."
"Probably." Andy nodded gently. He looked at Charles and said, "The people I sent to investigate him
have not given me any news about Ferry yet. It seemed like he disappeared right aftering back to
Y City. We couldn''t find him."
Charles frowned and pressed his lips together firmly. It took him a while before speaking again,
"Logically, that situation should not happen. Y City isn''t big enough for us to just lost Ferry that easily."
That caused Andy to nce at Charles. "In my opinion, we have to send more people to follow Sher. It
is possible for Ferry toe back for her. Now that we can''t find him, we should protect her the best
way we could. We should be able to catch him just in case he thinks of doing something."
An anxious sigh escaped Charles'' chest. He then said, "We are still in a disadvantage even after all
those things. There will always be a risk unless we find him."
"Got it." Andy nodded. "In other words, continue sending someone to watch Sher. I''ll go on hunting
Ferry down until we know where he is."
