Chapter 1675
Both the tuna sandwich and hot latte were her favorites.
Sherry wanted to throw them away, but she instantly recalled the adorable Caprice handing her the breakfast.
She had no idea how long the girl had waited for her in the car because she found the girl’s handprints on the sandwich.
Sherry exasperatedly sighed and took the sandwich.
When she was almost done with the sandwich, the traffic finally cleared up.
Less than twenty minutes later, she arrived at Lisa’s mansion in the city center.
The gate has a facial recognition system installed, so Sherry got out of the car and stood in front of the gate.
A beep later, the gate opened for her.
When she entered the living hall, she saw Lisa and several fashionable middle–aged ladies chatting on the couch. They all looked at her when she walked through the door.
Lisa waved at Sherry. “Sherry, over here.”
Sherry went over to the ladies.
Lisa got up and introduced Sherry to her friends. All the ladies came from prominent backgrounds. They were all entrepreneurs or successful businesswomen in Coastrock City.
Sherry greeted them politely before she was escorted to the table for tea. They chatted until afternoon and only stopped when Carl came over.
Carl came in a loud pink T–shirt. He went over to Sherry’s side, put his hand on her shoulder, and smiled at his mother. “Mom, are you done? I haven’t seen Sherry for a few days now. I want to go out with her.”
Lisa glared at him. though there was a smile on her face. “It’s just two days. Why are you getting so impatient?”
Her friends echoed her sentiments.
“Yeah. We haven’t had enough fun with Sherry.”
Lisa smiled and replied, “I like her too. She’s a good girl.”
Both Sherry’s personality and capabilities won Lisa’s heart. However, Sherry did not seem to have feelings for Carl and only agreed to fake the engagement because she wanted to help Carl win over the company.
Lisa hoped that her son would try a little bit harder to win Sherry’s heart too.
After leaving Lisa’s house, Sherry shrugged Carl’s hand off her shoulder. She said, “I have something to do. You go ahead.”
She then headed to her car, but Carl stopped her by standing in her way.
Sherry almost bumped into him. She stared at him. “What’s the matter?”
Carl raised a brow with a rather sour look. “Sis, come on. We haven’t seen each other in days. Don’t you have some questions for me?”
Sherry furrowed her brows. “What do you want me to ask?”
“Ask me what have I done, where I’ve been, who I met…” He suddenly lowered his head and moved closer to Sherry. He switched his delightful voice to a charming one and continued, “…which girl did I sleep with?”
