A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 125 Could Not Conceal the Self-blame

"Aren't you Sierra? Sierra Anderson?" Cohen Sutton's emotions were overwhelming, and he tried to hold her hand.

Payne Jones, however, walked over and pulled Sierra behind himself with one hand.

After that, Sierra came back to her senses. "Payne, I don't know this gentleman. He might have mistaken me for someone else!"

Her hasty reaction made Payne's face turn even more ironic, "Shut up!"

Cohen returned to his senses, and his eyes were still on the woman behind Payne. Seeing her eager to set aside the fact that she knew him, he felt extremely sad.

"Sierra, I didn't expect you to have changed this much. You don't even dare to say hello to me! This is your husband, right?"

"Ashley, take your aunt home!" Payne shouted coldly. He pushed the woman in his arms to Ashley's side.

"Daddy, we haven't eaten yet!"

"I don’t want to eat now!" Payne coldly swept a glance at Cohen. "It is said that Mr. Sutton is suave and elegant, and likes to flirt with many women. I never thought that today you even molest my woman. Do you want to go to jail again?"

"Payne, let's go home!" Hearing Payne's words, Sierra was even more scared. She pulled Payne's clothes and said nervously in a low voice, "Let's go back!"

Cohen's eyes dimmed and regained his composure, and then said, "Uh! I didn't expect you to be the Jones' Chemical Corp president, I'm sorry! What's more, I didn't expect I had such a notorious

reputation! Fine! If you don't know me, then you don't know!"

When he turned his head, Cohen saw Sherry Murray, "Sherry?"

Sierra's face instantly went pale, and then she fell backward.

"Ah! Mrs. Jones! Mrs. Jones, what happened to you?" Ashley shouted urgently.

Sierra had passed out.

Payne tensed up all of a sudden. "Take her to the hospital quickly!"

Cohen wanted to go forward but was blocked by Payne, who directly picked up Sierra and got into the elevator.

Sherry's eyes contracted, clenched her fist, and did not go forward.

She didn't expect Sierra and Mr. Sutton to know each other. Sherry felt that Siera's reaction was strange. She seemed to be eager to clear up the relationship with her "old acquaintance"!

"Adoptive father, that Mrs. Jones seems to be very afraid of you!" Keegan felt that it was a bit strange.

Cohen watched from afar as Payne carried Sierra down the elevator. Leon Hickman also went after him, and Ashley was calling for help. Cohen eyesight became even more despondent.

Mr. Sutton's shocked gaze contained endless bitterness, and the piercing pain made his grim features tangle together in pain. His clenched fists loosened and clenched again, and he prevented the desire to chase after them.

"Mr. Sutton, let's dine!" Sherry said indifferently. She didn't want to look at the person that was leaving. Not a single glance, never! Sierra's life had nothing to do with her.

However, Cohen murmured a question. "Sherry, is she your mother, Sierra Anderson?"

For a moment, Sherry's body stiffened, and there was a pain in her eyes.

Keegan and Reggie were both frozen too. They thought to themselves, was that Sherry's mother?

Sherry bit her lips, then replied firmly, "My mother Sierra Anderson had passed away many years ago, Mr. Sutton, perhaps you have mistaken the person!"

However, Cohen turned and looked at Sherry like he was looking through Sherry's soul with certainty. "Sherry, she is your mother. I have not mistaken her!"

Sherry could hear her heartbeat. The heartbeat was heavy and regulated, and it was hitting her chest cavity one after another.

She closed her eyes and stopped talking, and walked over to the table and sat down. After that, she held up the cup of warm water, which unfortunately was already cold. She then took a gulp and tried to suppress her bitterness.

Keegan looked at Sherry and worried. He was a little stunned that the woman could be Sherry's mother?

"Another cup of warm water!" Keegan saw that Sherry was still holding the cold water, drinking it, and immediately called the waiter.

A cup of hot water came, but Sherry raised her head and smiled lightly at the three people, "Please sit down you all, let's talk about it after we finish our meal, didn't we say that we would welcome Mr. Kelly today?"

Her bland explanation made Cohen sit down.

Keegan's face had a vague worry. While Reggie was a little surprised, he probably didn't expect Sherry to be so bland!

"Mr. Kelly, I'm sorry, this restaurant might be a wrong choice!" Sherry sincerely apologized.

Reggie's handsome side face was stunned, and his face was a little tighter, and he spat out two words, "It's okay!"

The more Reggie said this, the more Sherry felt guilty. She also didn't expect to meet Sierra when dining there, nor did she expect Mr. Sutton to know Sierra. She felt more uneasy thinking about it. "I'm sorry, I made the wrong arrangements today!"

"It's none of your business." Cohen said quietly.

"Let's eat! The steak is getting cold!" Reggie's low male voice drifted in, without much emotion and very calm.

Sherry bit her lip and raised her eyes, and then looked at Cohen beside her. The smile on his face no longer existed. Cohen seemed to be mixed with a faint sorrow.

"Sherry, eat something else, don't eat something cold!" Keegan's expression softened a bit, gazing at Sherry's small face with apologies. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Her little face could not conceal her self-blame. She bit her lips, and it was a look of apprehension and lack of appetite.

"Mr. Sutton, start eating. Some people reunited without knowing each other is actually very good!" Keegan suddenly said softly, as a simple quote goes by, "If two person can forget their past together, there won't be the hardship of missing each other."

Reggie's words had an inexplicable deep meaning. It made all three people frozen!

No one spoke again, and the meal was very gloomy.

After finishing the meal, the subordinates had already brought the car, Cohen went towards it. "I'm not going to the company today, Reggie, come visit my house sometime! Keegan, send Sherry back to the company!"

His departing figure was upright and forlorn, and Sherry knitted her brows apologetically.

"Miss Murray, it was nice to meet you. I'm sorry for what happened this morning!" Reggie glanced at Sherry and said indifferently.

"Oh! It's okay, Mr. Kelly don't mind!" Sherry's attention was all on the departing car, the kind of despondency when Cohen left, actually made her feel sad and aching in her heart.

"Then we'll see you there!" Reggie's eyes checked on Sherry deeply, before shaking hands with Keegan and walking away.

In the car, Keegan finally couldn't help but ask, "Sherry, do you really not know that woman?"

Sherry's hand stiffened, and the hand holding the bag tightened, " Keegan, don't ask, I don't want to talk about her!"

"She is so emotional when seeing adoptive father, could something have happened?" Keegan was a little worried, his eyebrows furrowed. "Sherry, both me and my adoptive father, have no relatives!"

Sherry's hand got tighter. She thought to herself, did something really happen? No way, Sierra only fainted.

"Sherry?" Keegan looked sideways at her, and Sherry was a bit lost in thought, and couldn't help but start to worry.

"Yes? Keegan, how long have you and Mr. Sutton known each other?"

"Seventeen years, I think!" Keegan thought for a moment and answered. "We met in prison! Both my adoptive father and I have been in jail."

When Keegan said those words, he was a bit breathless, and subconsciously glanced at Sherry, and she was a little surprised.

So it's true. The rumors were all true. But they all seemed like nice people, so how could they be in jail?

"Will you look down on me for this?" Keegan asked in a low voice.

"No, no!" Sherry shook her head. "I'm just in disbelief!"

"Why?"

"Because you and Mr. Sutton seem like nice people, so why would you be in jail? Aren't all the people who go to jail are bad? Or vicious as hell! Sorry, I find it hard to believe that you guys have been in jail!"

"Ugh! Sherry, you're so kind!" Keegan smiled, his face was stiff because he didn't smile often.

"Is it true?" She asked. "And why is that?"

"If I say I've killed someone, do you believe me?" Keegan's eyes looked ahead and said quietly.

"How could it be! Keegan, the more you say, the more outrageous you are!" Sherry shook her head. "Next, you're not going to tell me that Mr. Sutton is a gang leader who smuggles arms or drugs, right?"

"If I say so, do you believe me?" Keegan asked instead of answering.

"I don't believe it!" Sherry shook her head.

"Sherry, nothing in this world is as important as loved ones!" Keegan said.

Sherry's face stiffened, and she lowered her head. "Keegan, yes, you're right, loved ones are important! That's why I'm so desperate to find my son, that's why I insist on having this baby in my belly! I just want to be as loving as my father!"

"That lady is your mother, isn't she? Adoptive father was so sure!"

"Yay, we're already here!" Sherry interrupted him and unbuckled her seat belt. Obviously, she didn't want to talk about Sierra and digressed.

At the Rowlands' old residence.

"Young Master, you're back. It's been a long time since you've been back!" Mrs. Howe didn't expect to see William Rowland in the afternoon, "I'll call the master!"

"No need, Mrs. Howe. I came back to pick up some things. By the way, how is Sammy lately?" William then remembered that it seemed like he hadn't seen his son for over a month.

"The little young master was picked up by Miss Sherry!" Mrs. Howe said happily, "Young Master, I just found out that Miss Sherry is Sammy's mommy. She also has a son named Dan. That child is adorable!"

"Picked up by Sherry? When did that happen?" William was stunned, "How could dad agree to Sherry taking the child away?"

"How should I know?" Mrs. Howe said. "Yesterday morning, they took him away, saying that they wanted Sammy to stay with Miss Sherry for a month! The Master also said to give Miss Sherry's son Dan the Rowland Group. But the boy is more ambitious. He wanted to start his own company for Miss Sherry to be the chairman!"

"Uh!" William was even more dumbfounded. "Dad said to give the company to Dan?"

"Yes! I heard it with my own ears!"

"Call and tell him I'm back!" William frowned in confusion. He wondered why Sherry didn't tell him and thought about whether his father agreed?

Mrs. Howe immediately went to call the Master.

William took out his phone and sent a message to Sherry. "Sherry, you are really good at keeping your thoughts to yourself. You took away Sammy, and you didn't tell me!"

...

At the Rowland family study room, Master Rowland received a call from Mrs. Howe. He came back half an hour later, seeing William, he was seemingly displeased, and said in a cold voice, "You're willing to come back?"

"Dad! You really had to let Sammy meet his mommy?" William went straight to the point.

"You should leave Lucille Mclean's affairs alone. I agree that you and Sherry should get married!" John Rowland also went straight to the point.

"Dad! Really?" William raised his eyebrows.

"Really, remember to my previous premises!" John coldly added.

"But I need to manage Lucille's affairs, Sherry will understand!"

"She has no relationship with you anymore!"

"But I owe her!"
