When Stella went back to the studio, it was almost noon.
As soon as she entered the office, Sherry walked to her and asked knowingly, âWhere is Mr. Conrad?â
âHe has a lot of work to deal with in Steward Group, so he went over.â
Sherry sat opposite Stella, raising her eyebrows. âWhy donât you go dating or something?â
Stella opened her draft book. âItâs still daytime. We both have a lot of work to deal with.â
âItâs different. Havenât you just gotten the marriage certificates?â
Stella was shocked.
She asked, âHow did you know?â
Sherry pointed at her phone. âItâs spread online already.â
Upon hearing it, Stella picked up her phone and browsed.
The photos were all from the side or back of her and Clarence in low pixels. However, they could be recognized.
One photo was taken when they came out of the city hall and stood on the steps.
The sun was hanging behind them, warm and bright. She was smiling happily. Clarence tilted his head to look at her, curling up his lips.
Stella liked this photo a lot, so she saved it to her phone.
Sherry said, âThe last time when you smiled so brightly was the day when you got divorced.â
Stella was speechless.
Rarely, Sherry and Clarence shared the same opinion.
After a thought, she asked, âSherry, was I being thrilled when divorcing him?â
With her chin on her hand, Sherry recalled and said, âYes, you were, but it was more like a relief to you. You were full of hope for your future.
Obviously, you had felt tired and disgusted for the life earlier.â
Stella said, âIt seemed those things had just happened yesterday.â
Sherry continued, âBut it was already over a year ago. So many things have happened in the past year.â
That was true. She was so overwhelmed by those things once that she didnât think she could make it. However, unexpectedly, she still hung on.
Stella picked up her phone again. Staring at the latest photos that Archer had sent to her, she looked down.
The baby was growing up day by day. However, she seldom had time to be with him.
Sherry and Stella heaved sighs in unison, staring out of the window. They were lost in their thoughts.
At six oâclock in the evening, when Stella was drafting, there were a few knocks on her office door. Elaine poked her head in and said, âExcuse me, Stella. Someone wants to see Sherry.â
Stella didnât raise her head. âIsnât she in?â
Elaine answered, âI didnât find her next door. Probably sheâs gone to the factory.â
Stella said, âAll right. Take the visitor to the lounge. Iâll be right there.â
She stood up, stretched, and took this chance to have a walk outside.
Arriving at the lounge door, Stella knocked on it, pushed it open, and entered.
The man stood up when hearing the sound, nodding slightly at her.
Stella had met this man before. He used to blind date Sherry.
The man spoke, âNice to meet you. Iâm Brandon Chang, a friend of Sherry's. Isnât she here?â
Stella answered, âShe must be out. Iâve messaged her just now. She should be right back.â
Brandon nodded. âThank you so much.â
âYou are welcome. What would you like to drink?â
He pointed at his paper cup. âIâve got water already.â
Then he said, âYou must be Ms. Radomil. Sherry often tells me about you.â
Stella smiled. âYes, I am. Iâve been knowing her for ages.â
After exchanging a few words, Brandon said, âMs. Radomil, you can leave me here if you are quite busy. I will wait for Sherry to come back.â
Stella said, âOkay. Please suit yourself.â
Out of the lounge, she saw Elaine trot to her. âStella! Stella, who is that? Sherryâs new boyfriend?â
Stella knocked on her head. âStop talking nonsense. Go back to your work.â
Elaine bulged her cheeks and said with concerns, âHe looks like a good-tempered man. Uncle should have no chance.â
After a while, Sherry came back. âWhatâs wrong? Who wanted to see me?â
Stella pulled her aside. âBrandon Chang.â
Sherry was taken aback. âMy mother is so fast.â
âDid Mrs. Perry try to bring you together again?â
Sherry nodded. âShe called me last night and told me Brandon Chang had come back to his hometown...â
Sherry briefed it to Stella and added, âIâm so impressed by my mother. Iâll go inside and talk to him.â
Stella pulled her to stop. âSherry, in fact, Daniel...â
Sherry patted her hand and said in understanding, âIt's alright. Iâve let go of him. Probably three-legged toads are rare, but two-legged men are everywhere. He is past tense now. I want to reject Brandon because I donât have a crush on him. Itâs not because of Daniel at all.â
After finishing her words, Sherry entered the lounge.
Looking at her receding figure, Stella shook her head with a smile.
If Sherry had truly let go of Daniel, she wouldnât mention him deliberately.
When Sherry entered the lounge, Brandon was on the phone. Seeing Sherry, he said to the person from the other end of the line, âAunt, Sherryâs back now.â
Sherryâs mother said something, so Brandon handed his phone to Sherry. âSherry, Mrs. Perry wants to talk to you.â

Mrs. Perry chided, âWhere have you been? You made Brandon wait for you for such a long time.â
Sherry whispered, âI was... dealing with my work.â
âEnough. I donât care. Now, Brandon deliberately went to meet you. Youâd better stop being arrogant.â
âWhen did I...â
âAnyway, you should spend more time with Brandon and get to know him more. Donât end so quickly as last time. Iâm doing this for your own good.
Youâre alone in City N. No one helps you. If something happens to you, your dad and I...â
Upon hearing her nagging, Sherry hurriedly said, âOK. OK. Mom, I got it. Iâve gotta go.â
Then she quickly hung up the phone and gave it back to Brandon. âSorry for making you wait.â
Brandon took over his phone and said with a smile, âItâs alright. Iâm willing to.â
Sherry scratched her head. âWell... I want to treat you to dinner as an apology.â
Brandon didnât refuse but nodded with a smile.
Sherry said, âPlease wait for a few minutes more. I still havenât finished my work yet.â
âItâs alright. Please take your time. No hurry.â
Sherry smiled at him and walked out of the lounge.
She went to the tea room, panting, fanning with her hand. If she didnât resolve this matter kindly, she might not be able to go home in the future.
Her mother truly knew how to make it tough for her.
