Sherry raised her head and gazed blankly forward, she was exhausted.
She didn't expect Liam to found this place and he acted like a mad man.
This was the first time she realized how scary a man's strength was.
If… If Daniel didn't show up tonight, the consequences might be unimaginable.
She didn't know how long had she squatted, her legs were numb when she tried getting up.
She supported herself with the door and stood up, she felt dizzy.
As she walked towards her room, someone knocked on her door.
She was stunned and became alert. Could it be Liam? That bastard turned back?
Sherry reached for the baseball bat in the hallway as Daniel spoke, "I saw that your hands are injured
so I bought you some medicine, I'll leave it at the door, come get it later."
Daniel began to worry when there was no replied from the inside.
He frowned and moved closer to the door, "Sherry, did you hear me?"
Did she faint while crying?
While Daniel reached for his mobile to call her, the door opened.
Sherry's hair was messy, both her eyes and nose reddened, the shirt was wrinkled with a baseball bat
in her hands.
Daniel automatically took a step backward and raised his hands in the air, "I mean no harm, I just want
to deliver the medicine."
Sherry cried just now and she still sounded sobbing, "Where is the medicine?"
Daniel picked it up from the floor and handed it over to her.
Sherry took it and said, "Thank you," with her head lowered.
"It's no big deal."
Sherry looked at him, "Don't you plan to leave?"
"Yes, I'm going."
After a pause, Sherry asked, "Do you want to come in?"
Daniel looked at her and gazed down, "Why don't you put down the bat first."
Sherry suddenly realized she was still holding the bat. She threw it on one side and went in with the
medicine.
Daniel licked his lips, followed her in, and closed the door.
Sherry sat on the sofa and realized there were not only cuts but bruises caused by Liam on her arms.
It was quite painful.
While she was putting on medicine, Daniel who sat on the single sofa asked, "Has he been harassing
you lately?"
Sherry nodded, "He appeared at the studio earlier but now he found this place."
"Have you been together for long?"
Sherry looked up, "Why did you ask?"
Daniel waved to signified that he meant nothing, "Sorry, I was just asking."
Sherry continued, "Our relationship started during university, it has been four or five years. We planned
to get married last year but he cheated."
"Getting married?"
"Why are you surprised? You make me feel like getting married is a crime," Sherry said casually.
Daniel lifted his lips, "No, I was just thinking…"
"Thinking that marriage is something odd to you and never thought about it, right?" Sherry interrupted.
Daniel didn't deny it.
Sherry knew the first time she saw him that he was a bachelor by choice, he had a face that could
easily make women fell for him and was a total womanizer.
Sherry started to clean up the mess after putting medicine on her arms.
Daniel then pointed on her cheek, "There is more."
Sherry was stunned, "What?"
Daniel then pointed to his face, "Here, there is blood."
Sherry touched her face hearing that, "This… Ouch!"
She used her mobile as a mirror and found a fingernail scratched on her left chin, it was still bleeding
slightly.
Sherry turn opened the medicine again and use a cotton bud to apply it to the scratch.
But it was inconvenient to hold the mobile with one hand and apply for the medicine with another. While
she intended to move to the washroom, someone took over the cotton bud.
Daniel was already sitting next to her without her realizing, "Let me do it."
Sherry looked at him with her eyes widened.
Without letting her respond, Daniel applied the medicines to her chin.
Daniel's gaze met hers and his hand froze in the air.
In the quiet night under a romantic dim light, their breaths were seductive.
It was a perfect atmosphere that increased the desires of a single man and a single woman.
He removed the cotton bud and kissed her.
While his lips were about to touch hers, Sherry threw a slap onto his face, "Men are all trash indeed,"
she said calmly.
Daniel was speechless. He covered his lips single-handedly and let out a cough as he retrieved swiftly.
"Sorry, if there's nothing else, I shall leave…"
Sherry pulled his hand as he stood up.
He didn't expect such a move from Sherry, he lost his balance and fell sitting on the sofa.
"You…"
Sherry was already sitting on his lap kissing him without letting him speak.
Their body temperatures raised as they kissed.
Their breaths were rapid after a long and passionate kiss.
Daniel's gripped on her waist tightened, his voice turned husky, "Are you sure?"
Sherry's arms wrapped around his neck, her lips looked seductive and her eyes looked flirtatious under
the dimmed light. "We are adults and this isn't our first time, you don't need to take responsibility, why
the hesitation?"
Daniel's eyes deepened and kissed her.
The temperature in the living room raised as time went by and soon it was filled with deep and shallow
breathing.
The lightning struck outside, followed by rains.
…
The next morning, Sherry was awakened by the vibration of her mobile.
She answered the call with her eyes shut, it was Stella, "Sherry, I need to go to Aqock today and will
probably come back tonight or tomorrow at the latest."
Sherry said yes and asked in sleepiness, "Do I still need to go there today?"
Stella paused, "Yes. But don't rush, I will text you once I landed."
"Okay."
"Go back to sleep, Clarence is here, speak later," Stella said.
Sherry put her mobile under her pillow, hearing busy noises from the other side.
At this moment, she felt an arm on her waist.
Two seconds later, Sherry was wide awaked.
She sat up at once, flipped the blanket, and saw the naked man next to her, she was in total
shock.
