Stella had never thought about it before. What Sherry suggested reminded her of why they started their
business. It was to come out with their own brand of jewelleries. They were only accepting
customization orders when they first started up their business.
If focusing on too many customization orders would take their time away from coming out with
jewelleries of their own brand, it will be like putting the cart before the horse.
Stella said, “You’re right. Let me think about it.”
Sherry patted Stella’s shoulder, “It’s good that you’re thinking things this way. So, I’ll go home now?
See you tomorrow.”
Stella nodded. Then she saw Sherry staggering. Stella asked again, “Do you need me to send you
upstairs?”
“I’m fine. You’ve sent me to my lobby. All I need to is to hop into a lift,” Sherry closed the door and
waved at Stella, “Go home, and don’t forget to call me when you arrived home.”
“Sure.”
Stella drove away after she made sure Sherry got into the building.
Sherry walked towards the lift and stood aside, waiting for it to come down from the higher floor after
pressing the button. Slowly, she felt like the changing numbers on the monitor was getting blurred.
Sherry burped after a few seconds.
At the same time, she heard hurried footsteps from behind. Sherry turned around, but she was already
in someone’s arm before she could see the person.
Sherry was startled. She tried to struggle, and a lowered voice rose, “Still mad at me?”
“What?” Sherry thought.
Did she get so drunk that she started to have illusions?
Sherry carefully reached out her hand and pitched the man on his waist. Then she heard the man
muffled in pain.
Oh, it wasn’t an illusion.
Sherry pushed the man away and scolded him, “Are you si…”
Daniel looked at Sherry and said sincerely, “I’m sorry. It was my fault. I promise, there’ll be no next
time.”
Sherry didn’t know what Daniel was planning to do. At the same time, the lift door opened. Sherry didn’t
want to deal with Daniel, so she headed into the lift right away. What Sherry didn’t expect was Daniel
followed her into the lift.
Sherry frowned and wanted to continued scolding Daniel. However, another man walked into the lift.
Sherry had no choice but to swallow all the bad words she wanted to use on Daniel.
Daniel stood behind Sherry in the lift and tried pulling her sleeves and the strap of her bag.
As if they were close friends.
Sherry was feeling fed up. She pulled her bag in front of her and pulled her clothes tighter. Then she
leaned against the wall of the lift.
Upon completing all actions, she saw the man looking at her when she raised her head.
The man looked away when he saw Sherry looking at her.
Sherry frowned even harder. It felt more disgusting than Daniel, who stood behind her.
Sherry quickly walked out of the lift the moment it arrived at her floor.
As expected, Daniel followed Sherry out of the lift, as well as the other man. The man stood afar from
pretending he was looking for keys.
Sherry hesitated when she reached out her hand to open the door. These men didn’t look like they
were good people. Were they going to do anything if she opened her door now?
Daniel spoke when Sherry hesitated, “Babe, I’m here to apologize. Please let me in.”
Sherry had goosebumps when she heard Daniel calling her baby. When she looked at Daniel, Daniel
squinted his eyes and raised his chin to send Sherry a sign.
Sherry turned around and saw the man in the lift standing afar. She quickly opened the door and
entered the house with Daniel.
After Sherry shut her door, the man in the lift stopped pretending that he was looking for keys. He
looked at Sherry’s door and slowly approached her unit.
After Sherry went into the house, she quickly took a bat she bought earlier for protection from her
entryway then said to Daniel, “Stand there and don’t move.”
Daniel kept his hands in the air and raised his brow. He tried to show Sherry that he had no ill
intentions.
Sherry was alerted, “What’s wrong with you? And the man…”
Daniel put a finger on his lips and asked Sherry to stay quiet when he heard footsteps from outside.
Sherry looked at the door and picked up a slipper, then threw it to the door.
Daniel didn’t expect Sherry to do what she did. He became nervous and dodged the slipper.
The slipper hit the door and created a loud noise. It startled the man who stood behind the door. He
quickly stopped eavesdropping.
Sherry walked into her living room, but she kept the bat in her hand.
Sherry stood in the kitchen and asked coldly, “You can tell me what happened now.”
Daniel said, “Alright. I apologize for what happened just now. That man was tailing me, and I have no
choice but…”
“It’s you he was tailing. What does that have to do with me? Why did you involve me in your trouble?”
Daniel smiled, “They were probably investigating why I opened my shop beside your studio.”
Sherry was curious, “Why?”
“I…” Daniel looked at Sherry, “Let’s ignore the reason why. I might need your help to put on an act for
me later.”
Sherry replied without thinking much, “I won’t.”
Daniel said slowly, “It’s complicated. I’m not sure how to put it in words for you. But as for the moment,
Ms. Radomil is in danger.”
Sherry was confused. How did Stella got involved in whatever interest the man had?
Daniel patiently explained when he saw Sherry’s confused look, “There are only two of you in the
studio. I have to come for either one of you, don’t I?”
Sherry muttered, “There are many young girls in our studio as well.”
Daniel felt speechless.
Daniel paused a while before he continued, “I’m serious.”
Sherry organized her thoughts, “You’re saying that Stella was the reason why you opened your shop
beside our studio?”
Daniel nodded and admitted.
“Why? You knew she is…”
“All I can tell you is that we have the same enemy. What I did was to protect Ms. Radomil, and I have
no other intentions.”
Sherry put down the bat in her hand and made it stand, “Then what are you doing now?”
Daniel smiled, “Let’s get together.”
Sherry stunned and raised the bat again.
Daniel explained, “What I meant was we put on an act and lead them into believing I opened my shop
there for you. So it won’t cause any harm to Ms. Radomil. I promise I won’t disturb you after that. I will
go as far as you want me to go.”
