Chapter 37: Lost Self Control


    "Peter, you''re back!" William went over to Peter and patted him happily on his shoulders, "Not bad,


    you''re still so muscr!"


    "Mr. Rond, I saw Sherry just now!” If Peter wasn''t quick to elude Sherry, he would have been


    hassled by her and couldn''t get away.


    "Er!" William was stunned and his face darkened, "She saw you?"


    Peter nodded, "Mr. Rond, she even wanted to ask me about that issue...


    Before he could finish, William swiftly darted out, "Mr. Rond..”


    Sherry looked all over for Peter, where did he go to? Where was he? She was so anxious that tears


    started to flow. Her beautiful face was painfully shriveled, "Mr. Mollison, where are you?”


    Can''t be found! He can''t be found! Tears welled up in her eyes as she stood hopelessly at the corner of


    the staircase. She bent over with her hands on her knees and started to weep bitterly, "Tell me where


    he is! Where is he?"


    She sobbed and slid dispirited onto the ground. She held onto her head in despair while her body


    shuddered as if she couldn''t withstand the stress any more.


    The phone rang but it couldn''t ovee the crying of the woman. The sobs reverberated through the


    stairwell but no one  noticed because it was far from the office area.


    William held onto his cell phone tightly in the security control room. He looked for her on several floors


    without sess and decided toe to the security control room. William looked at a small woman


    shivering at a corner and his expression became even more profound and all thepassion erupted


    within him.


    "Mr. Rond?’ The operator in charge of the security cameras looked puzzled at William and didn''t


    know which camera he was looking at. He simply asked the Operator to put up all the video feeds up


    on the screen.


    He was gone in a sh.


    It took William ten minutes to get to Sherry and she was still on the ground with her arms around her


    knees. It looked like she had maintained this position for a long time.


    "Sherry!" A deep voice rumbled as William squat next to her. He raised her head only to see her


    distraught face from all the crying. William''s heart ached when he saw Sherry in her pitiful state.


    His tender gaze focused on her tear-soaked face. Sherry was frighteningly pale and was as if she had


    entered into an alternate universe. She sobbed softly, "I can''t find... I... lean''t find...”


    William sighed as he couldn''t make sense of what he was feeling.


    "Sherry!" He shouted at her tenderly and held her hand tightly, “Hey, Sherry!”


    Damn! She actually cried until she fainted! William carried her and went directly to the reserved lift.


    Four o''clock in the afternoon.


    "Why aren''t Mr. Rond and Ms. Murray here? Aren''t we having a meeting?” Liam and the rest were


    already in the conference room without the two key yers.


    Have they eloped? Liam pursed his lips. Impossible. Knowing Will''s character, he shouldn''t have.


    MH residence.


    The afternoon sun rays prated thece curtains and shone onto a woman who was sleeping on the


    bed. Her long eyshes were quivering in her sleep.


    William knew that she was having a nightmare again.


    In the dark, someone wearing a mask of a fox and carrying a baby scoffed and disappeared!


    "Don''t go!” She wanted to grab him but she couldn''t grab anything. Suddenly, another man walked


    over. His facial features were distinct with a pair of eyes that were sharp like eagles. He warmly held


    her hand and said, “You are my woman...’


    He was William.


    She turned her head and saw the man with the mask of a fox. She immediately stretched out her hand


    and shouted anxiously,


    "Don''t leave, don''t leave..”


    But as she stretched out her hand, the man started to ripple like water as Sherry stared at her empty


    hands and the mysterious man went further and further into the distance.


    "Don''t go!" Her tears started to flow and Sherry fell onto the ground, “Return my child to me...”

    William closed his eyes rapidly when he heard this. He wondered if he had been too cruel?


    He looked profoundly at Sherry who was having a nightmare. Her face was pale as a sheet of paper. It


    looked like the appearance of Peter had traumatized her. It appeared that she didn''t forget that


    incident! She actually didn''t forget! Looking at her reaction, he was worried that she would detest him if


    he were to tell her the truth.


    Sherry seemed toe to her senses and she suddenly thought about Dan. She couldn''t sleep. She


    still had Dan. She needed to look for Dan!


    William''s eyes were fixated onto Sherry''s tear-soaked face as she stirred in therge white bed. What


    had she dreamt? He was wondering as he held firmly onto her tightly clenched hand and said with a


    deep voice, "Wake up”


    Suddenly, Sherry grabbed onto his hand tightly as if he was her only lifeline and only reliance.


    "Sherry, wake up, you''re having a nightmare!”


    Sherry suddenly opened her eyes and her face was drenched with tears. Her eyes looked at William


    closely in a daze thinking that she was still dreaming.


    "Were you having a nightmare?” William said in a rare tenderness.


    At that moment, she totally lost control of herself and she began to wail uncontrobly. This was the


    first time that she had cried so bitterly in front of William.


    "It''s okay now, Sherry” William assured her tenderly. His slender fingers gently patted on Sherry''s


    trembling back. He didn''t know what nightmare she just had but he knew what caused her to have the


    nightmare and why was she in an emotional breakdown!


    Once again, she cried until she lost consciousness in William''s embrace. But just before she fell


    asleep, she grasped tightly onto William''s hands with all her strength as if she was desperate not to let


    go of his hand.


    William sighed again when he saw her tear-soaked face and her right hand tightly holding onto him.


    She began to stir and felt that she was about to be engulfed in the darkness. Sherry frowned uneasily


    but felt that she was held tightly and assuringly by a strong arm.


    “Sherry, you can do it, you must be strong!” William whispered into her ears.


    William! That deep dark voice was William. Sherry sat up rapidly again.


    “No!” Sherry kicked off the nket and wanted to get out of bed.


    "Where are you going?" William saw that she had pushed away his hand and felt the strange


    emptiness. ‘I''ll send you!"


    Sherry''s hollow gaze finally had some signs of life. She sat at the bedside bewildered and looked at the


    gentle and concerned William. What did he just say? He didn''t ask about what had happened and his


    tone was very warm and tender.


    His slender fingers glided across Sherry''s face as his profound eyes looked at her without any demand


    nor insistence, "I''ll send you to wherever you want to go!"


    Sherry came to her senses at this point and looked at her surroundings. The white-colored room, the


    ck and white furniture, the clean white bedsheets, where was this ce?


    “This is my apartment!” William could sense her thoughts.


    "How did I end up here?" She was stunned. Wasn''t she at the office? Didn''t she meet that Mr.


    Mollison? What was his name?


    “You fainted!” Although he said the truth, his voice quivered, "and this was the only ce I could take


    you!”


    "What''s the time?" She asked.


    “It''s almost the end of the workday!” William said.


    “Didn''t we have a meeting?"


    "What do you think?”


    “I''m sorry!” Sherry stood up and looked at the clean white bed sheet. She thought about whether Mr.


    Rond was obsessive about cleanliness. She suddenly


    realized something and her expression darkened, "I held up thepany''s meeting!”


    “We''ll have the meeting tomorrow!” William said.


    “Mr. Rond, I''m so sorry” She said as she got off the bed. She pushed open the door and walked out.


    Mr. Mollison was the only one who knew who the man with the fox mask was and the only person who


    can find her son. She needed to find him no matter what it took. But she didn''t know his name!


    The infant in the swaddle was taken away from her by the people of that man with a fox mask. She had


    never seen her son since. Over these five years, only God knew how many times she had woken up in


    the middle in crying in fear.


    After so many things had happened, her surprise encounter with Mr. Mollison had given her new hope.


    She wanted to look for him no matter how small the chances were! "Mr. Rond, is there a manager


    by the name of Mollison in ourpany?”


    William thought about how sad she was and he did not want her to continue to be sad, "No!"


    “There really isn''t a Mr. Mollison?" Sherry''s was disappointed. No, it was hopelessness. She vaguely


    remembered that a female colleague called him Mr. Mollison. Was she mistaken?


    The news of Mr. Rond and Ms. Murray missing out on thepany meeting started to spread like


    wildfire to all corners of thepany. It instantly became the hot topic of thepany. Mr. Rond


    actually left with Ms. Murray in broad daylight. Furthermore, ording to the operator of the security


    cameras, Mr. Rond carried Ms. Murray out of thepany!


    “Could it be that Ms. Murray is pregnant?" Someone shouted.


    "Ms. Murray has Mr. Rond’s baby?"


    “Mr. Rond carried her after she fainted. She must be pregnant and that was why he carried her


    away!"


    Very quickly, the news of the possibility of Sherry being pregnant with Mr. Rond''s child spread far


    and wide.


    Sherry didn''t want William to send her. After sheposed herself, she went to pick up Dan.


    “Mommy, did you cry again?" Dan could see that Sherry''s eyes were swollen and he was certain that


    she cried.


    "No, mommy didn''t cry!” Sherry replied with unease. Then she remembered that William told her to be


    prepared to go on an overseas trip for three days. But who will take care of Dan during her absence?


    "Then why are mommy''s eyes red? What happened?”


    "Dan, mommy''s boss wants me to go on a business trip but there isn''t anyone to take care of you!"


    “It''s alright, I can stay at the kindergarten. There are several kids whose parents don''te to pick


    them up every day. They only pick them up on the weekend. Mommy, I can do that also!"


    “Er!” Sherry was stunned. Why didn''t she think of this option? "But you are still so young!"


    "Mommy, I''ve grown up. It''s settled then. Tomorrow we''ll tell the teacher. I want to stay at school!


    Mommy, don''t be sad, I''m a strong boy and won''t be afraid. I like to stay at the kindergarten. I will have


    many friends here. Next time when you''re busy, I''ll just stay at the kindergarten!"


    Sherry''s heart immediately ached to see that this kid was so thoughtful. How nice if Dan was her flesh


    and blood, she thought.


    She also knew that her own child may not be as thoughtful and caring towards her. She couldn''t help


    but wonder and each time when she did that, her heart will ache immensely.


    “Come! Mommy will give you a piggyback!" Sherry squatted, “Mommy will give you a piggyback ride


    home. Once mommy is back from the work trip, I''lle to pick you and we''ll go home together!"


    “Okay! It''s been ages since mommy gave me a piggyback ride!" The kid jumped onto Sherry''s back,


    "Mommy, when will you be back?"


    She had not left and Dan already missed her!


    "Very fast!” It shouldn''t be that long, Sherry thought.
