Chapter 94 To Face Him Again (Part Two)


    "Quite good, mom. I''m now working at the JS Group, and I have already gotten used to the business


    there. Everything is going well, Joe is at school, and all has been settled down, " cheerfully said Cherry.


    Elsa was still not relieved, and asked, "So, won''t you live here for long? Didn''t your brother buy this


    house for you?"


    Elsa more or less realized something. Women are always more sensitive, and besides that, nobody


    knew her daughter better than she did.


    Cherry finally spoke out her mind, and said, "Mom, I don''t want to be a burden for my brother. Some


    timeter, I''ll find a house of my own, and move in it with Joe. You can live here with Uncle Jacob, and


    in this way you''re also able to look out after Wilson. He''s busy running hispany, and I think that it


    would be better if you and Uncle Jacob would stay here with him."


    Elsa felt sorry for her daughter, and replied, "Cherr, there''s no need for you to work so hard. If you need


    money, you can just ask mom for it."


    "No, " interrupted Cherry, "Mom, I''m not working just for the money. I don''tck for it, either, but I just


    want to be independent. I''ve been impeding you for five years, and I really don''t want to rely on you


    anymore. I want to give Joe a home, a home of our own."


    Elsa patted Cherry on her head, and said, "My silly girl, how could you ever impede us in anything?


    You''re my daughter, and your Uncle Jacob treated you as his own daughter. Your brother is kind to you


    as well, and we all wish you to stay here with us."


    "But, mom, you know that I can''t stay here, " said Cherry firmly.


    Elsa felt puzzled; she couldn''t persuade her stubborn daughter.


    Elsa ended the topic, and said, "Well, goodnight then. You should go to sleep, because you have to go


    to work tomorrow."


    "Goodnight, " replied Cherry. She held her mother''s hand, and left the balcony together.


    After a month, Cherry hadpletely got used to the life there back in the city. She went to work during


    the day, and after that she went home, and had dinner with Joe and her other family members in the


    evening. When the weekend came, she went shopping with Joe, and Cherry enjoyed the easy life.


    In one afternoon, Cherry didn''t hurry to go back home after work, and instead drove her car around in


    the city.


    It then suddenly urred to her that she hadn''t seen Stephen yet, and she decided to visit him right


    away.


    Cherry drove her car to the club, the ce that she used to be so familiar with.


    She stood at the door of the club, and saw the crowds of peopleing in and out of it. The outside of


    the club seemed to have been redecorated, and the color of the whole building looked fresh. It had


    been five years since she had left, and she thought that the building surely must have needed some


    repair work done. She was curious if the inside was still the same as she had left it years ago.


    When Cherry entered the club, she immediately looked towards the bar counter, almost


    subconsciously. Every time when she hade to the club in the past, she would have nced at the


    counter to look for Emily first, but now, it was impossible to find her there.


    Instead, Cherry saw there one waiter and one waitress, with their bartending skills no worse than


    Emily''s.


    After that, Cherry began to look around. She noticed that the club was not that busy at that time of the


    day, and that the waiters, all dressed in uniforms, were politely serving their customers.


    Cherry suddenly pulled the arm of one of the waitresses, and asked, "Excuse me, is Mr. Stephen in?"


    The waitress was a little surprised when she looked at Cherry, because as she remembered, Mr.


    Stephen always kept away from women. Now, unexpectedly, a beauty was asking for him.


    The waitress vaguely answered her, "Eh, perhaps, but it''s still office hours."


    "Then, could you bring me to him?" asked Cherry.


    While the waitress was still hesitant, Cherry heard a woman''s voice calling out her name from


    somewhere nearby in the bar.


    "Mrs. Cherry!"


    Cherry looked towards the direction where the voice wasing from and felt familiar with the face


    that she saw. She then realized that it was one of Emily''s colleagues, and that she used to know the


    girl.


    The name of the girl finally came to Cherry''s mind. "Shirley!"


    "Mrs. Cherry, are you looking for Mr. Stephen?" asked Shirley Xiao. It had been a long time since she


    hadst seen Cherry. She hadn''t seen her anymore after Emily had passed away.


    "Yes. Is he in?" asked Cherry again.


    Shirley said to the other waitress, "Go back to whatever you were doing; I''ll guide her to Mr. Stephen."


    "Okay!" The waitress nodded, and then left.


    Shirley then turned to Cherry, and said, "Let''s go, Mrs. Cherry. Let me lead you to Mr. Stephen''s office."


    "Okay!" She was amazed that she could meet an acquaintance there. She thought that nobody would


    know her there after all these years.


    Cherry followed Shirley as Shirley roughly introduced the changes in the club to her. Stephen had


    redecorated the club all over again, and had also changed his office, and most of the old staff had left

    in the past years, because it wasn''t a ce to work for long.


    When they arrived at a door, Shirley politely said, "Here it is, Mrs. Cherry. Please go in by yourself."


    "Right, thank you. Just go ahead with your work, " said Cherry; she felt sorry to have dyed her from


    her work.


    "Okay, I''ll be going then. If you need any help, just ask for me, " replied Shirley. She waved her hand to


    Cherry, and left.
