The day after receiving the notification, she came across some news.
“Ford Group’s CEO is set to marry a beautiful wife! The mysterious wife’s background is
astonishing!”
“A perfect match, Mr. Ford is getting married! In–depth investigation into the bride’s
background!”
The media always had a keen interest in various types of gossip, whether it involved
scandals with celebrities in the entertainment industry or wealthy individuals.
Malcolm fell into the latter category.
While browsing the news on her phone, Sherry was simmering a pot of chicken soup on
the stove. She had added a lot of medicinal herbs to the soup, intending to bring it to
the hospital today to nourish her uncle’s body.
Camila had once again been “ordered” to accompany her and earn some “hard–earned

money, so she was guarding the pot in the kitchen.
“Hey, this Malcolm is really interesting. If he wants to get married, he should just do it.
There’s no need to make it a big deal and let the whole world know. It’s like he’s
deliberately doing it for you to see,” Camila said.
Sherry took a bite of an apple and replied calmly, “Who knows? But I don’t think it has
anything to do with me.”
“Yeah.” Camila propped up her chin and looked at the steaming hot pot, smacking her
lips. “It’s also possible that he does it for his father–in–law and mother–in–law. After all,
David is also an important figure in the landscape design industry. He can’t be too
shabby when marrying off his daughter.”
Thinking of this, Sherry closed her phone and asked, “Camila, your father is also in the
real estate industry. What does he think of David?”

Mr. Castillo was also an experienced figure in the real estate industry in Herzoslovakia
City. Although his company wasn’t as big as the Ford Group, he had a lot of experience
and insight. She was quite curious to hear Mr. Castillo’s opinion.

Camila hesitated for a moment and said, “Um, Sherry, do you want to hear the truth or
the real truth?”
Sherry smiled and said, “The truth is the real truth, isn’t it? Go ahead; I won’t get angry.”
“Well, that’s hard to say. After all, David is your biological father. If I say something
negative about him, you might not be happy, right?”
The smile on Sherry’s face quickly disappeared. “I have no relationship with him. His
only daughter is Sophia. I have my two uncles, and that’s enough.”
Camila came over and hugged her. “Okay, don’t be sad. Tonight, I will take you to a
concert, okay?”
“I’m not sad.”
“You’re just pretending.” Camila held her and gently touched her hair. “I’ve known you
for so many years. How can I not know what you’re thinking? You’ve been longing to
see your father for so many years, right? But now… well, let’s not talk about that. Let me
tell you, Christopher is having a concert at the sports arena tonight. I have staff passes,

and I can take you to see them. They’re front row seats!”
Sherry shook her head and politely declined. “I’m not a fan.”
“I’m not asking you to be a fan. I’m asking you to have a change of mood. Can you
accompany me?”
Sherry suddenly questioned, “Are you Christopher’s manager now?”
“Add the word ‘intern‘ to that. Intern manager. That cunning maverick! Other new
employees have a three–month probation period, but he gave me a whole year! If it
weren’t for Christopher, I would have quit a long time ago.”
Sherry pouted. “But… Christopher has a concert tonight. Don’t you, as an intern
manager, have to be involved in the preparations?”
Camila shrugged. “He’s nothing compared to my best friend. Hused to be a big fan of
Christopher; I even dreamed of marrying him. But after spending some time with him, I
found out that he’s just like anyone else! His idol image collapsed instantly! It was so
disappointing… But I have to admit, Christopher is really good–looking, and he can sing

and dance without any training. He’s a natural–born star.”
Camila started talking nonstop about Christopher again.

“Sherry, just come with me. Haven’t you been to a concert before? Besides, it’s free, and
we can use the staff entrance.
“But… I still have to cook for Mr. Sniper.”
“He won’t starve if you skip one meal. Come on, it’s settled! This is the biggest job I’ve
had since I started working, so you have to come and support me!”
Camila was very persuasive, and after thinking for a while, Sherry remembered that ME
Sniper had told her in the morning that he might come back late tonight and not to wait
for him.
“Okay.”
“He he!” Camila became happy. “Don’t worry, I will take good care of you.”
Sherry helplessly asked, “You still haven’t told me; how does Mr. Castillo evaluate
David?”

Camila no longer had any reservations this time and spoke frankly: “My dad mentioned
it to me once or twice. He said that David’s design ability is not really top–notch. It’s just
that, because of his origins, he is highly sought after and has a great reputation in the
country. It’s like James, you know? There are many basketball players in the NBA who
play better than him, but James is particularly famous in our country! It’s because
landscape designers are scarce in our country. How should I put it? It’s all about
comparison among peers.”
“So, you mean David’s design ability is inferior to some renowned foreign experts?”
“It’s not just inferior; my dad’s exact words were: ‘They’re incomparable“, Camila pouted
and protested. “He said that now, the companies that hire David value his reputation
more than his design ability. The truly good designs are actually outsourced to foreign
designers and then credited to David. It’s like selling inferior products while falsely
advertising in the real estate industry!”
Camila was very straightforward in her words, and Sherry also had a better
understanding.

Camila, did Mr. Castillo say that there are no talented landscape design masters in the
country?”
“Well, there is one in our company. He’s probably around our age and quite talented.
However, in terms of experience and reputation, he can’t compare to David. That’s why
he can only stay in our company; otherwise, he would have changed jobs long ago. My
dad intends to focus on nurturing him. You can tell that he still has a lot of potential.”
Camila suddenly slapped her forehead. “Sherry, didn’t you mention last time that you
were planning to take the SAT test? Why don’t you also study landscape design? With
your talent and effort, you will definitely have a good future.”
To be honest, Sherry was also intrigued.
At the very least, she wanted to give it a try and see if she could achieve the same level
of success as David.
