A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 76 Blind Date Banquet

She said that unintentionally, but William heard it like she was explaining to Liam. Seeing Sherry smiling to Liam, her expression, her pleasure, William couldn’t believe his eyes.

Looking at William's expressionless face, Liam laughed out loud, “If I don't need to go to work when I catch a cold, then I'm really looking forward to catch a cold!”

William squinted as he sharply glanced at Liam and said, “You can also choose to have a three months bed rest...”

He stopped on purpose and said, “I heard that if you have a fracture, you won't need to get off the bed for three months!”

Frightened by his sudden coldness, Liam stopped smiling and looked at William who was immersed in his dinner... Did he hear it wrong?

“You heard it right!” he answered.

Liam was surprised, he had a handsome pair of eyebrows, A pair of bright eyes, and pointed nose… He even had good looking face and sexy lips, "Don't tell me that you want to do it yourself?”

Sherry didn’t know what they were talking about, why did it feel like they're going to fight?

“If you're too bored, you can work overtime tomorrow!” William said that with a rigid and very cold tone, like something was repressing his heart.

“You're abusing your power for personal matters!” Liam whispered. He didn't care about William's bad mood at all, he looked playful instead, “Sherry, this dish is very tasty!”

“Liam, this one is also very tasty!” Sammy recommended it to him.

Liam's arrival made the atmosphere of that meal very strange.

“Sherry, please give me more pork ribs soup!” Liam handed his bowl over.

Sherry smiled, she was very happy that the food she cooked made people have a good appetite, ”Okay! Please wait for a moment!”

William suddenly felt a pain when he saw her smile. He frowned and said coldly, “You're eating so much !”

“Yeah!” Liam didn't care about William's evil expression as he happily said, “Sammy, everything is very tasty, right?”

“Yes!” Sammy didn’t know what William and Liam were talking about, he simply agreed, “This is very delicious, Daddy, try this!”

Sammy said that while taking a piece of ribs to William's bowl before looking at him in expectation... William's cold face was expressionless but he silently started to eat it.

Sherry handed the bowl over again, but William stood up instead, ”Sammy, are you full now?”

Sammy nodded, ”Yes!”

“Time to go home!” said William.

“But I still want to ah that toy with Dan....”

“Go home!” those two words declared that he was annoyed.

Sherry and Liam were surprised, Liam said, ”Will, you can go first... I'll send Sammy home later!”

“Daddy, can I?” Sammy expected a bit.

William looked back at Sammy, his mood was unfathomable, ”Daddy is going first!” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Sherry didn't speak, but she stood up and took the medicine, “This is your medicine, don't forget to bring it this time!”

He looked to her face, seeing that she's not saying anything, he slightly moved his lips like he wanted to say something. However, he didn't say anything even after struggling for a long time. He didn’t know what to say, and there was only silence there.

Afterwards, he didn't answer, turned around, and just left. When William saw that bundle of flowers, there was a sense of anger in his eyes.

“Hey! Mr. Rowland, your medicine!” when Sherry saw that he didn't take it, she quickly followed him out.

She unexpectedly couldn't find William when she walked out the door, she then chased him outside.

Suddenly, there was a powerful hand stretching from one side of the corridor, which hooked her waist and brought her to a warm embrace, ”Mmh...”

As if there was no chance to breathe, his overbearing lips blocked hers, kissing her so emotionally.

Sherry's mind went blank, his kiss was pressing and fierce like it's burning her.

“You can't be with other man!” he finally let her go when she was frightened. He rested his head on her shoulder as he muttered in her ear.

Sherry snapped out of it, raised her head, and looked at William in a daze. In the darkness, she suddenly narrowed her eyes. She slightly moved her red lips before gritting her teeth and said, “What do you want?”

“Be my woman!” his voice was very low, it even sounded a bit familiar, like...

Sherry had an illusion for a moment, why did she think that it sounded like Mr. Fox's voice? In just a moment, she pushed him away and coldly said, “If you say that we’re friends, I'll gladly accept it... But you, you kept violating me like this makes me so disgusted! I don't want a friend like you, stop pestering me! You make me feel very irritable and very bored.”

“He doesn't make you fed up?” he sounded a bit jealous.

“William, you're very boring! At least Liam has never assaulted me, but you'll always have a vulgar interest! You're just a pig that lives by the lower part of your body!” Sherry deliberately suppressed her emotions, but she found herself to be more and more uncontrollable. Her voice was low but then it became sharp and sharper, ”This your medicine! I don't want to say something bad because of Sammy, please don’t go too far!”

She said that coldly, wiped the corners of her lips, trembled, turned around, and left.

The voice control light in the corridor was off, William was shrouded with silence and darkness... There were a few stars on the night sky, its cold moon light, under the cold moon light, his arrogant face looked melancholy.

Saturday, in the Rowland's residence.

The banquet was extremely gorgeous because all the businessmen knew that it's a blind date banquet that night... The Rowland family's blind date banquet, bosses from all social circles wouldn't miss it, they all. Basically, all the prestigious people came and wanted to betroth their daughter to William.

In the corner, William was holding the alcohol glass, his cold aura had cut off all women that wanted to talk with him, even those businessmen who where going to chum up to The Rowland Group retreated.

That was a blind date?

Why did they feel more like a trap?

All of the sudden, everyone was stunned as they looked at the people who came late by the entrance... Payne Jones from the Jones' Chemical Corp. was wearing a white suit, his hair was gray, but he still looked energetic.

Payne was standing between his wife and Ashley, his daughter. Ashley was smiling as she linked her father's arm, with an exquisite make up and a white dress, she looked exceptionally beautiful and charming. Meanwhile, his wife looked even more elegant, and their family seemed very happy!

John came out to greet them in person, “Payne, how are you?”

Payne immediately smiled too, “John, you're still so impressive! Ashley, come and greet Mr. John!”

Ashley immediately greeted him decently, “Hello Mr. John!”

“Hello! You've become more and more beautiful!” as if John was very satisfied of his future daughter-in- law, he searched for William's figure amongst the audiences, “I’ll call William over to introduce you!”

His gaze fell to the corner, on the figure that seemed particularly gloomy, “Call the Young Master over!”

“Yes, sir!” a servant already went to call William over.

“There’s no need, Mr. John... I'll go and get acquainted with William myself!” Ashley smiled as she didn't mind either, she smiled.

“That's a good !” John was worried the servant couldn't call him over.

Ashley was undoubtedly the most beautiful woman there, wherever she walked to, people would always look towards her.

Sherry, who was cleaning up the tableware with chef, turned around and looked at the corner. Seeing William who was talking with the woman in the white dress, her hands trembled, that was the first time they met after dinner at her house that day, she didn’t know whether his cold was gone or not!

She just knew that it was his blind date banquet after arriving there, it was a blind date party! Sherry didn't see Sammy either, she didn’t know where Sammy went to!

“Sherry, how's the preparation? Don't miss anything!” Leon walked over with his suit and leather shoes.

“Leon, I've paid attention to the details, I'll check it again now!” Sherry smiled as she stepped back.

At that time, the woman who was next to Payne looked over to her place, and Sherry seemed to feel that gaze too. Sherry looked over to Ashley and their gazes met. Sherry was dumbfounded as she held the food tray even tighter, then she took a few deep breaths before looking away and started to get busy.

“Sherry, make some coffee for me, I don't want to drink alcohol!” Liam suddenly appeared and looked for Sherry's figure.

“Okay! Liam, you're also here!” Sherry smiled.

“Yeah, wherever there's crowd, there's me!”

“Okay! I'll make the coffee for you!” Sherry nodded.

“Good girl! Go on!”

His words made Sherry felt like he's treating her like a child... She could felt that Liam treated her like she was his little sister, unlike William that's extremely arrogant, Liam was not a dangerous guy, so she wasn't afraid of Liam.

William in the corner smiled radiantly as he looked over, in an instant, his originally gloomy face became cold too, He even wished he could rush up and punch Liam, that slutty man, to death.

“William, I can see that you're not interested in me at all!” Ashley looked at William

William was stunned when he heard her saying that, ”Miss Jones, you're very smart and very beautiful!”

“So?”

“So you should find a man who matches well with you!” William sounded very cold, ”Not as my son's stepmother!”

“Ugh! Don't you think that being a stepmother is a challenging?” Ashley raised her face to look at William, ”William, what should I do? I think I like you!”

William's gaze just revolved around a certain figure... Seeing that she went back to Liam's side, his gaze became more gloomy, but then he ridiculed Ashley, “You're too naive!”

Ashley immediately looked sad as she looked William, but she didn't neglect his line of sight... He seemed to be looking at the woman, who seemed to be a waitress, right?

How could The Rowland Group's CEO suddenly care about a waitress so much? Ashley didn't quite understand it as she rolled her eyes, “William, are you saying that you don't like a woman like me?”

William didn't even take a glance at Ashley from the very start, he just said, “You're not suitable to be a stepmother!”

“Oh?! Then, is that lady in a suit suitable?” Ashley asked mischievously, she succeeded in getting William to look at her.

He looked at Ashley thoughtfully.

“That means... I guessed it right?”
