Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Seeing Sherry standing there with a shocked look on her face, Mrs. Perry explained to Daniel, ''Sherry

is not usually like this. She just... gets shy when she sees a handsome man like you. Please don't

mind."

Daniel withdrew his hand and chuckled, "I don't mind. It's an honor to be liked by Miss Perry."

"You..."

Sherry was just about to say something when Mrs. Perry pulled her along and said to Mr. Perry, "Old

man, keep Daniel company for a chat. Sherry and I are going to make dinner."

With that, she dragged Sherry into the kitchen.

Mrs. Perry took the bag in her hand and looked at it, “Why did you buy so many snacks instead of

eating on time?"

Sherry came back to her senses, "Mom, he ..."

"Well, I'm really not lying to you this time. You know I have a bad leg and it's been a long time. It was

Daniel who took the initiative to help me and said he would take me home." Mrs. Perry put down the

bag and said, "No matter how eager I am to have grandchildren, I won't let you just marry a man I

found on the road. Do you really think I'm treating you like a tool for getting grandchildren?"

Sherry was silent, "I didn't mean that. It’s... just that he doesn't look like a good guy at first glance, yet

you just brought him home?"

Mrs. Perry said while picking vegetables, "You've hit the nail on the head. I thought he was a liar at first

too, but when I thought about it, how could there be such a good-looking liar? What's more, what would

he do to me at my age? At most, he was trying to trick me into joining a membership of a who-know-

what company. How much can it cost? It's worth it to get scammed."

Sherry was speechless.

She finally knew who she had inherited from.

Sherry helped Mrs. Perry with the dishes, "Haven't you heard? The more handsome a man is, the

better he is at tricking people. Be careful that he cheats you out of your savings."

"Do you think I've never watched TV? The original saying is clearly 'The prettier the woman, the more

she will cheat'." Mrs. Perry continued, "Besides, your father and I have all our savings set aside for your

wedding. If you don't get married, are we going to bring our savings to the coffin? It might as well be

better to let him cheat us. At least I'm willing to do it."

What…

What did she have to do with this?

She really didn't know how to retort.

Mrs. Perry looked outside and saw Daniel and Mr. Perry chatting happily, then turned back and lowered

her voice, "Seriously, your father and I have already figured out his situation. Let's not talk about

whether he's a liar or not, but I think you'll like him for sure!"

Sherry said lazily, "You've got the wrong idea. I definitely don't like him."

Mrs. Perry said, "You don't know that, do you? If I told you about it, you would think it was amazing too.

Daniel is actually a musician and can play everything from cello to piano. The most important thing is

that he is mixed-race. Look how handsome he is!"

"Wait a minute..."

Something didn't seem right.

Mrs. Perry interrupted her, "What are you waiting for? At first, when your father told me about your

criteria for choosing a spouse, I thought you were deliberately giving me a hard time. Where can we

find you according to your criteria? But fate is so coincidental. And here he is! Tell me, where else in

the world would you find a second person who fits all the criteria to appear before you?"

Sherry suddenly felt a headache. She had just said it casually the night before. How would she possibly

have thought...

Mrs. Perry added, "I won't push you this time, but he's the type you like. If you miss him, I won't have

much to look forward to from you. It might as well let him cheat me and your dad out of our savings and

we'll give up the idea of getting you married."

Mrs. Perry handed her the fruit plate in her hand, "All right, don't stay here with me. Take this out and

find a chance to talk to him."

Sherry looked down. Hadn't they just been talking? When did the fruit get cut...

She shook her head violently and felt very befuddled now, like she was dreaming.

Sherry was pushed out of the kitchen by Mrs. Perry. She carried the fruit plate and walked slowly over

to the sofa and placed it in front of Daniel.

In the kitchen, Mrs. Perry winked at Mr. Perry, who understood and hurriedly got up, "Sherry, you and

Daniel can have a talk. I'll go downstairs to get some wine."

Soon, only the two of them were left in the living room.

Sherry stood there and looked at Daniel expressionlessly. She was just about to say something when

she saw her mother leaning against the kitchen doorway eavesdropping.

Sherry quickly walked over and closed the kitchen door behind her.

Mrs. Perry's voice came from inside, "Well, I'm not listening. I won’t listen."

Sherry walked over to Daniel again and glanced at the balcony, "Let's go there and talk."

Daniel got up and followed her.

Just as Sherry stood, she turned around sharply, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "What are

you doing in my house!"

Daniel looked at her and spoke slowly, "Your mother has a injured foot. I couldn't just leave her on the

street."

"Did you approach her on purpose?"

"I was looking for a chance to greet her, and it was unexpected that she hurt her foot."

Sherry's brows furrowed, "Why did you want to greet her? No... Weren't you in London? What are you

doing here all of a sudden?"

Daniel replied frankly, "I've come to hold you responsible."

"What..." Sherry was puzzled, "Responsible for what?"

Daniel took a step forward and pressed closer to her, then spoke one word at a time, "I don't think that

single adults are allowed to do whatever they want. And I've never regarded what we have together as

a one-night stand."

Sherry subconsciously took two steps back until she was against the wall. She barely kept her

composure, "That's true. It was two nights, after all."

Daniel's lips twitched.

Sherry looked up at him, "Let's make it clear. I know what your attitude is to love, and I'm sure I'm not

the only one you've had one-night stands with. Okay, as you said, you didn't take that as a one-night

stand, and I'm fine with it. But you ..."

"What do you think I am?" Daniel interrupted her, "I'm someone who's used to having a one-night stand

with anyone I want?"

Sherry was silent for a few seconds, "I didn't say that."

Daniel pursed his lips and explained in a low voice, "I never had a one-night stand before."

Now that he'd said it, Sherry believed it.

She'd heard Emmett say that Daniel just didn't take love too seriously, but he definitely didn't mess

around and still treated every brief love affair responsibly.

They hadn't separated until both parties had lost interest.

"But what difference does it make if all those girlfriends of yours are for sex without love..."

"At least, none of them were one-night stands in my eyes." Daniel stared at her, "So, you're responsible

for me."

Sherry was confused.

What?
