“Yeah,” David chimed in. “If the Jimenez family has a house, she can go live there.”
Nora clenched her teeth. “But she needs some time to pack up.”

David suggested that Sophia should move out immediately. There are plenty of hotels
outside where she could stay for a few days.
However, he was also concerned that Sophia might go around and damage his
reputation, so he reluctantly agreed, “Then let her stay a few more days. She can move
out once she has cleaned up the house.”
David paused and turned to Sherry, asking, “Ms. Wilson, do you have any objections?”
Sherry smiled bitterly. “Can I have objections?
“After all, she wants to harm you,‘ David sighed. “I don’t know what happened to this
girl. She seemed fine in all aspects before, but suddenly became so irritable. She even dared to throw sulfuric acid at someone in the middle of the night! Just thinking about
it gives me chills.”
Sherry whispered, “Rome wasn’t built in a day. Some things are not easily revealed, and
what outsiders see is always just the surface. If someone doesn’t interact with her, they
would really think that she is the way she appears.”
There was an underlying meaning in her words, and David understood.
“Ms/Wilson, I will try my best to settle this for you.”
“I don’t need it,” Sherry smiled and said. “I am already very grateful that Mr. Wilson took
me in. As for Sophia, it’s a personal grudge between us and has nothing to do with you,
Mr. Wilson. It won’t interfere with your cooperation with Mr. Castillo, so please rest
assured.”
This was exactly what David wanted to hear.
Ms. Wilson is a reasonable person; that’s great.
Great?
Chapter 174 A Sense Of Security
Yes, it was great. Her plan was going smoothly–too smoothly.
Nora saw the situation and knew that she couldn’t change it anymore. She chose to
retreat. “Sherry, I was wrong to suspect you today. I was just worried about Joseph and
got carried away. Please don’t hold it against me.”
Sherry really felt that it was a waste that Nora didn’t receive an Oscar for being the best
actress. Her acting skills were truly remarkable.
She continued to play along with Nora’s act. “Mrs. Wilson, you’re too kind. Any mother
would not be able to stay calm when she saw her child being hurt. You also care about
Joseph, and I understand it. It was inappropriate for me to say those things at the
hospital earlier. After all, you are my elder. Even if you wrongly accused me, I shouldn’t
have contradicted you in public.”
Nora smiled insincerely. “Sherry, you are a kind and sensible girl. If Sophia had half of
your maturity,
*Sophia’s nature is not bad; it’s just that she’s easily jealous. But I am her cousin, sol
should be more accommodating to her.
sn’t it just acting? Who couldn’t do that? It’s just a matter of countering each other’s
noves. Sherry was not afraid of Nora.
David had been worried that Sherry would cause trouble at home because of Nora’s
nisunderstanding, but he didn’t expect her to easily let it go. She spoke politely and
confidently, which instantly increased his fondness for her.

They drove back to the villa. Sherry went upstairs to take a bath and sleep. Nora carried
Joseph upstairs as well and entered the room.
David had to go to work tomorrow, so he slept alone in the master bedroom on the first
floor.
Sherry’s room was pitch black, with remnants of sulfuric acid on the door, corroding the
wooden–carved door and turning it black.
Sherry carefully closed the door and locked it
She took out her phone, which had a notification of an unread message from Mr.
Sniper
20, Galinah Chemical Pharmacy. I purchased it at 12:39 PM today; Sophia personally
went to buy it, and the surveillance cameras along the way captured her license plate.”
Sherry put away her phone and laid down on the bed, Sophia bought it this afternoon.
At that time, she shouldn’t have known that she would be staying at the Wilson family’s
house. So Sophia had already prepared in advance, wanting to disfigure her?
Sophia wanted to make her pay after she embarrassed her in front of the whole
country.
Ruining makeup was temporary, but ruining appearance was a lifelong matter. Sophia
probably hated her face for a very long time, right?
Keeping it a secret from Nora, she was secretly preparing to ruin her face.
Unfortunately, she didn’t expect her to move in so suddenly, completely infuriating her
and causing her to implement the plan ahead of schedule:
She sent a text message to Mr. Sniper. “Are you still there?”
Chapter 174 A Sense Of Security
He quickly found out the details about Sophia’s bottle of sulfuric acid. He probably
started investigating as soon as the incident occurred, right?
Mr. Sniper replied quickly. “Yes.”
“Go to sleep quickly; it’s already three in the morning.”
“I can’t sleep.”
Sherry placed her phone close to her heart, feeling the slight warmth.
“You went to the hospital with me, right?”
“Yes.”
“You didn’t wear a mask; did anyone see your face?”
“Yes.”
Sherry gasped, then he…
“Sherry, I have scars on my face, but I don’t care how others see me. I wear a mask
because I’m afraid of scaring you and of you rejecting me.”
What a fool!
“I’m carrying your child; how can I reject you?”
The moonlight shone, the streetlights had already shut down, and a soft glow of
moonlight shone onto her bed.
Sherry placed her phone back on the bedside table and peacefully entered dreamland.
What was the happiest thing in the world? It’s when the person you liked also liked you back. There had never been any doubt or unease, only a sense of security. So what if he
can’t take off the mask?
What Mr. Sniper had given her far exceeded his identity.
This night, everyone was destined to have trouble sleeping.
Nora woke up early, prepared breakfast for David, and saw him off to work.
Chapter 174 A Sense Of Security
Sherry woke up early as well. Today, Christopher had a variety show to participate in.
She had arranged to meet Lily directly at the entrance of the TV station.
Upon her arrival, she noticed Camila waiting for her at the entrance.
“Sherry, I’m here!”
