A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 127

Finally, Sherry couldn’t help but ask, “Keegan, what’s up with the President?”

“It’s, it’s nothing!” Keegan immediately denied.

At this moment, Cohen Sutton’s office door opened. He walked out calmly and smiled dotingly when he saw Sherry. “You should get off early, Sherry. You don’t look that well. Keegan, why don’t you send Sherry back later? And come to my place after that.”

“Okay!”

After saying that, Cohen gave Sherry a long look before leaving in long strides.

Sherry was confused. What was going on here?

“Ding dong…” Her phone rang. When she saw that it was William, she didn’t pick up but told Keegan, “Someone’s coming to get me, you don’t need to send me back!”

“Oh!” Keegan nodded. “I’ll company you down then!”

It was the time to get off work, people started to leave the office. A sapphire blue Bugatti was driving towards them when Sherry and Keegan walked out of the tower.

William was searching for Sherry, and didn’t expect to see her leaving the tower with a well-built man. They seemed to be having a good time chatting. Suddenly, Sherry slipped. William’s heart immediately throbbed. Fortunately, the man grabbed hold of her in time. But then Sherry fell into the man’s embrace with his hand on her waist.

Looking at her cuddle by another man, William felt a boiling rage. Damn it, he couldn’t let her work here anymore. She was being taken advantage of by a pervert!

William yanked the handbrake, pulled out the keys and stormed out the car.

“Be careful!” Keegan was holding Sherry from the back, and he found his heart trembling.

This trembling came out of nowhere but it felt so real. Along the tremble, he felt something was lingering in his body with a weird feeling.

“Thank you, Keegan!” Sherry was taken aback. It was so lucky she didn’t fall down or the consequence might be unbearable. She put her hand on her belly subconsciously and thanked Keegan again for saving her, “Thank you!”

“I’ll ask the janitor to do the cleaning later after work from now on. The floor often gets frozen during winter. You should be more careful!” Keegan reminded while blushing. He was usually not interested in women, but he was blushing from Sherry’s scent that flowed into his nasal cavity when he had her in his arms just a moment ago!

William was advancing towards them. The crowd getting off work was at awe looking at this well-built man with sharp features walking by in a suit.

“Oh, so handsome!”

“So handsome!”

The ladies were awing.

The awing caught Sherry’s attention. She turned around and saw William who had walked up to a spot just five meters away from them. He raised his eyebrows and said with a charming voice, “Let’s go home, my wife.”

Wife?

Sherry was so taken aback she lost her balance. Keegan immediately tried to hold her again.

William dash forward, put his hand on Sherry’s slender waist and took her into his arms. He smiled coldly at Keegan, his eyes were shooting daggers, “Thank you. Mr. Fox! Let’s go home now, my wife.”

With that said, he picked Sherry up and took her into the Bugatti in front of everyone at the scene. Everyone was shocked…

A hint of jealousy could be seen at the corner of Keegan’s mouth…

Sherry got in the car and didn’t come back to her senses even after the car started and drove away.

She only came back to her senses and blushed when the car halted by the roadside after sped out three hundred meters from Cohen Group.

How could he call her that? They were even married. And he was the one who said they were not going to marry.

William started to take off her clothes after stopping the car. Sherry was shocked and grabbed hold of her coat subconsciously, not letting him unbutton her clothes. “What are you doing, William?”

He didn’t answer but brutally took off her coat and threw it to the backseat. Then, he took off his own suit and put it on her. She looked weird in the oversized suit.

After all that, Sherry looked at him, “Are you nuts?”

William was still silent. He turned sideways and looked at her while frowning.

“William?” she was starting to feel uncomfortable with his stare.

Suddenly, he reached out and took her into his arms. In his tight cuddle, Sherry felt something was off from his usual domineering hug. She felt suffocated.

She felt that not because she couldn’t breathe but because of his gaze a moment ago. It was a complicated gaze of a kid whose toy had been taken away from him. There was a mixed feeling of grievance, struggle and tyranny in it.

Sherry stopped resisting and struggling even though she still had no idea what to do with this. “What’s wrong, William?”

“He hugged you!” he whispered into her ears indignantly.

“Uh! It’s not like that!” Sherry finally understood this was about the scene a while ago. “Relax and listen to me. The floor was slippery, so Keegan supported me! It’s not a hug!”

He was using the wrong phrase.

“But I saw he hugged you!” he felt more aggrieved when he thought of the fact his father told him he saw Keegan took Sherry into a car with Sherry in his arms.

His voice faded, and he planted his face into her neck, taking in her scent. He held her tightly in the narrow space. He would let any other guy touch his woman!

“William!” Sherry was already blushing when she saw him. Now she was blushing even more.

Was he… jealous? The corner of her lips curled up. Was this something to feel proud of?

It was silent in the car. William’s breath was the only sound that lingered in her ears.

“Quit your job, Sherry. I don’t want you to work anymore! Stay home and take care of the kids. I’ll support our family!” He was still holding her.

“Uh!” Sherry was speechless and felt helpless at his stubbornness. “All right, let’s go get Sammy. He must be waiting for us!”

“Oh! Right!” Only then did William let go of her and tidied the suit. Satisfaction filled his heart as he felt Sherry wearing his suit was the cutest thing ever.

Leaning against the seat, she took in the vague tobacco smell on the oversized suit. It was a distinct tobacco smell from William, she liked it. And the exclusive manly smell on the suit made her feel safe. Stroking her belly, she muttered inwardly, “Daddy is beside us, baby! I hope he’ll stay by side this time and not leave me like when I was pregnant with your brother! That was so lonely! Let’s stay strong together!”

This might really be a daughter, she thought. She remembered William kept talking about wanting a daughter back when they were at Hokkaido. Hope she could deliver him one this time.

But there was a melancholy feeling in her heart. She wondered if her happiness could be attained this easily. Could Lucille recover? All she could do now was to pray for her to recover soon.

William’s phone suddenly rang just as he was about to start the car. He frown when he saw that is was a call from home.

Sherry’s heart throbbed and she lowered her head. Her heart then went rumbling. Was it Lucille?

“Hey, Dad!” William answered the call.

Sherry sighed a breath of relieve. It wasn’t Lucille!

“Oh, you got Sammy? All right, got it!” William hung up the phone and then took out the phone battery. He suddenly gave Sherry a fishy look. “Dad picked Sammy up. We don’t need to go anymore!”

Sherry got nervous. “He said he’ll let Sammy stay with me for a month!”

“He said you can go fetch him tomorrow. Tonight it’ll be just the two of us!” William blinked, “I’m yours. I turned my phone off. Turn yours off too!”

“I can’t, William. What if something comes up?” Sherry was speechless while feeling moved he actually took his phone battery out.

“Nothing can stop us tonight. Dan will be staying at school, he’ll be fine. And Sammy is at home. I’m right by your side. Where’s your phone?” He rummaged through her bag, found her phone and took the battery out. Only then was he relieved, “Where are we going, my wife?”

“Who’s your wife?” Sherry lowered her head embarrassingly.

“You! You’re my wife. I’m going to call you that from now on. Dad already approved our marriage!” he said.

“But why should I marry you?” she turned her head to the side, her heart beat accelerated.

“You don’t want to? I’ll make you change your mind tonight! Just wait and see, I’ll make you beg me for it!” he said implicitly.

Sherry blushed even more. She hid herself in his suit to avoid his gaze. She chided in a low voice, “All right, let’s go now!”

“Sure. Seems like my wife can’t wait for what’s about to come tonight!” William smiled dotingly.

“William!” With her embarrassment almost turning into a rage, Sherry growled.

“Yes, my wife?” Looking at Sherry who was curling up embarrassingly, William couldn’t help but laugh, “Hahaha, my wife is embarrassed…”

“I’m not your wife!” Sherry muffled. She wrapped herself in his coat tightly, hiding her face that was bursting with embarrassment.

“You are! You are my wife!” William continued to tease her.

Hearing him calling her his wife in such a seductive voice, her heart couldn’t help but beat quicker.

“My wife, you’re going to suffocate yourself like this! Come out now!” William said with a doting tone, “Come on out now!”

William you jerk!

Sherry felt like digging herself a hole to hide away.

“All right, I’m serious! Come on out now!” He was worried she was going to make herself ill at this rate. Tugging away the suit, he saw her face which was as red as an apple. He curled up his lips and said with an extremely loving gaze, “What do you want to eat? I’ll take you there!”

“Screw it! I’m already full from this entire racket!” Sherry said sulkily.

“Does my wife mean we should head home straight and do it?” He raised his eyebrows, completely triggered.

“William!” What on earth was wrong with this guy? He just kept thinking about that stuff!

“I’m right here!” William answered excitedly, “Just tell me what you want, my wife! I’ll fulfill all your needs!”

“William, I don’t want to talk to you anymore if you continue to act like this!” She put on a straight face. She didn’t like it. Even though she felt happy when he talked like that, but she knew there were still things to be dealt with in their relationship.

Was he used to call Lucille like this too?

Suddenly, she put on a stern expression.

She still cared about it even though it was already in the past. After all, who wouldn’t?
