Chapter 186
Sherry smiled and replied, “Your younger brother is quite impressive.”
‘Thank you.”
“I was complimenting your brother, not you.”
“But you just said I am the hero of you and our baby. I heard it, so you were
complimenting me.”
This person… Sherry inwardly scoffed at him and continued typing. “Have you been
following us all this time?”
“I’m not a pervert.”
“Then how did you hear us talking?”
Some secrets must remain hidden.”
Seriously?
Sherry closed the screen of her phone and stopped reading his next message. It didn’t
matter whether she received any more texts since every word and action of hers was
already in his eyes.
As she took a few steps, she ran into Sophia and a young man at a deserted corner.
The young man spoke with a foreign accent, as if he had grown up abroad. His local
language had a foreign accent, but it didn’t affect his ability to express himself.
Sophia lowered her head and shyly smiled. “Why did you bring me here?”
“I wanted to talk to you,” the man said. “I like you, and I want to date you. I can’t do it in
front of your parents.”
Indeed, he was a foreigner. He was really straightforward and bold in his speech.
But Sophia seemed to like it. “Do you really like me?”
Yes, I really like you. You have a unique charm, like your local actress.
Sophia covered her mouth and chuckled. “You know about our local actress?”
The man burst into laughter. “I’ve heard about her being beautiful.”
It seemed that Sophia had found her target and succeeded.
Sherry walked away in the opposite direction, feeling disgusted by what she had heard
at the corner.
She went back to where she had first stood; the waiters had already started setting up
the buffet around the fountain pool,
The sun was shining directly overhead, and the weather was a bit hot. Many ladies had
already taken off their coats, revealing their beautiful and exquisite dresses and perfect
body curves. Nora did the same. Today, she was wearing a red dress, and she smiled
elegantly as she clinked glasses with the wealthy wives passing by.
However, there were fewer people around her now, indicating that the social event was
coming to an end

David finished his conversation and walked over, coincidentally bumping into Sherry.
“Sherry, where did you just go? I didn’t see you.”
“I was standing for a while and got a bit tired, so I went to the corner to rest. Do you
need something from me?”
David waved his hand. “No, this is not the time to wander around.”
Sherry nodded obediently. “I understand.”
David was very satisfied with her obedience. Sherry, do you really not know who gave
you the dress?”
“I don’t know,” Sherry said. “Are you trying to make connections?”
“Well…” David found an excuse for himself. “Since I’ve decided to work in Herzoslovakia
City, it’s naturally better to have more connections in the industry. It’s always good to know more people. But I have no intention of flattering him, so don’t misunderstand.”
Sherry smiled sweetly. “Of course, it’s well known that you are upright and principled.”
“Exactly.” David looked into the distance and saw Nora slowly approaching with her
dress. He quickly walked up to her and helped her with the dress, being as gentlemanly.
as possible.
Many people around were watching, and some women looked at Nora with jealousy.
They whispered to their companions, and from their expressions, it was clear that they
were saying, “Look how considerate her husband is, and look at you.”
However, they didn’t know that David’s consideration was mostly for show, only when
there were people around.
At home, he treated Nora no differently than he treated the maids.
Not to mention helping with the dress; he wouldn’t even reach out to grab a tissue. He
would make Nora take it out and put it in his hand.
Sherry had been staying at the Wilson family house for several days and had already
observed everything in secret
She even felt somewhat fortunate that her mother didn’t end up with David. No one
could stand David as he was a hypocrite; only Nora could put up with him as she
wanted to climb the ladder.
And at this moment, Nora even had a look of enjoyment, relishing in the envy of others..
Sherry suddenly understood. Nora and David were actually the same type of people. As
long as they appeared glamorous and received praise from others in public, that was
In a
enough. As for what they were like when they returned home, no one could see.
certain sense, the two of them were truly a perfect match.
Nora was able to endure David for so many years. Perhaps she didn’t have any better
options, and she was no longer young. And all her hopes were placed on her daughter,
Sophia.
First, she seduced Malcolm. But when she realized that there was no hope of marrying
into the Ford family, she quickly changed her target. Today was a perfect opportunity, and she actually managed to hook a clueless man who didn’t know who she was.
“David” Nora smiled and said, “Did you have a good conversation with Mr. Castillo?”
David looked radiant. “Mr. Castillo said that the shopping plaza project is just the
beginning. The ultimate plan is for the Castillo family to invest in several larger projects,
including a large amusement park and a villa community specifically targeting the
middle and upper classes. They have entrusted me with the design. If these projects
succeed, my reputation in the community will definitely soar.”
Nora was also happy: “With your abilities, as well as the recognition from Mr. Castillo
and the mysterious boss, you will definitely achieve great success. Sophia and I will
also benefit from your success.
“Hahaha, that’s for sure. You are my wife, so if I shine, you shine too. Oh, by the way,
where is Sophia?”
Of course, Nora couldn’t tell him that Sophia had found a connection with another man
and had gone to a secluded place to secretly meet him.
In David’s opinion, as long as Malcolm had not officially divorced, Sophia was still going
to marry into the Ford family.
some quiet time.”
David also agreed, nodding, “That’s true. Sophia is pregnant, and with so many people
around, the air is polluted. She might not feel comfortable. By the way, I just overheard.
Mr. Castillo saying that Malcolm is here today. Let’s arrange for them to meet and
resolve any misunderstandings. These two individuals have already conceived a child,
so they should expedite their marriage. Otherwise, it will be considered an illegitimate
birth, which would have been disgraceful in ancient times. I cannot bear such
embarrassment.”
