âHavenât Mr. Rowland done this before? Didnât you forbid mummy and William to see each other? Isnât the situation now comply to your wishes?â Dan wasnât going to back off. âWilliam, please go out. Mummy, donât you want to see him?â
Sherry was stunned for a moment before nodding subconsciously.
âLook, my mummy doesnât want to see William, so, please go out, both of you!â
âYour mummy never said that she doesnât want to see me!â John said vehemently.
âIn the end, I donât like you guys! Mummy has suffered because of you, I donât like that! Samuel, get them out of here!â
âBut...â Samuel didnât dare to do that.
âThen you should go out too! Donât come to see mummy ever again!â Dan wasnât going to hear what they wanted to say. At the moment, he was consumed by rage. He was beyond angry!
âDan, stop acting like that. Mr. Rowland is your elder!â Sherry tugged her sonâs shirt.
Only then did Dan stopped his blabbering. He stopped shunning John, but instead he had got William out of the place.
Nobody would foresee that Danâs appearance here would instead worsen the chances of John being able to see Sherry. He slumped onto a bench and was stuck in a stupor.
Since when was his life such a huge mess as it was right now?
Dan was by Sherryâs side for three whole days, and the two children didnât even go to school.
Sherry had applied for a leave of absence without specifying any reason. She just mentioned that there was something that needed her attention.
On the other hand, Cohen hadnât seen Sherry for three days, and he was very worried about her. He couldnât know that such a thing had happened.
In a medical ward, Mrs. Howe had delivered some nutritious items to Sherry. Sherry was drinking soup while John had returned home.
Dan and Samuel had fallen asleep on a small bed that John had ordered his driver to buy.
After all, they were still children, and they wouldnât be able to hold on very long. Sherry was able to recover quite fast. The doctor only needed to observe her for a little more, and as long as she no longer bled, she could be discharged from the hospital very soon.
Despite that, Mrs. Howe held on to the opinion that a woman needed to take extra care especially in confinement after giving birth because a womanâs body was very precious. If something went wrong, one would fall sick very quickly.
After Sherry had finished her soup, she told Mrs. Howe, âMrs. Howe, you should go back now. I have recovered a lot, and I can walk now!â
After three days, Mrs. Howe had become very familiar with Sherry, and upon recalling Williamâs appearance in the corridor in the past three days without leaving that place, she couldnât help urging Sherry, âSherry, the young master is just outside the ward. You should let him come to see you!â
Sherry felt her frame tense. Why was he still here? Didnât she ask him to go back already some time ago?
It had been three days, and he was still here!
Mrs. Howe saw that Sherry was stuck in a dilemma, so she continued to persuade her, âThe young master didnât have a good rest in the past three days. When you fell asleep, he would come in to watch you; When you woke up, he would immediately exited the ward! The young master never experienced this type of hardship previously since he was pampered from when he was still a child. Maybe he wouldnât be able to take everything into consideration since he was like the typical careless and oblivious man. Although he wouldnât be able to take care of every little detail, he still cares a lot about you! Sherry, please get back together on good terms with the young master. If you continue to ignore him, I am afraid that he might fall sick!â
âAsk him to come in!â Sherry finally made up her mind.
âAre you for real?â Mrs. Howe was delighted to hear that, âI will ask him to come in now!â
William was seated on a long bench outside the ward, and his eyes were bloodshot at the moment. Despite that, he willed himself to stay awake since Sherry hadnât forgiven him yet. He wouldnât think of anything else except that!
âYoung master, go in now!â Mrs. Howe grabbed his shirt excitedly. âSherry is asking you to go in!â
âReâReally?â William was stunned slightly, and he snapped his head upwards abruptly, âMrs. Howe, are you lying to me?â
âWhy should I lie to you? Go in now, I will ask the driver to fetch the children back home to sleep. Cherish this chance well!â Mrs. Howe was summoning the driver as she replied him.
As the door opened, Sherry didnât see William. Instead, the driver came into the room and following from behind was Mrs. Howe smiling face, âThe children are exhausted after watching over you for the whole night. I will let the driver send them back home to rest!â
âBut...â Sherry couldnât finish her sentence when the driver carried those two children deep in slumber away!
William came in at this moment, and Mrs. Howe quietly shut the door of the ward.
Sherry shot a glance at William and discovered that his mustache was longer than before and he was still wearing the same clothes from three days ago. He had been standing by outside the ward the past few days, and she knew that he would come into take a look at her when she was sleeping.
However, sometimes Dan would stop him from getting past him, and all he could do was sighing profusely and helplessly.
Ever since he came in, he only stared at her without saying a word. He was afraid that he would be told to get lost once again after saying something inappropriately.
Sherry looked at William expressionlessly, and when he studied his forlorn and dilapidated look and bloodshot eyes, her neutral face flashed a hint of worry for him, but it was only for a moment. She then regained her neutral look as she began, âWhy didnât you go back home?â
He froze for a second, and then a look for jubilance appeared on his face. Was she finally willing to talk to him?
âSherry, you finally are willing to talk to me?â He hurried to her side and sat down on the chair by the bed. He was watching her face with a certain tenderness. It had been three days, but he would happily accept that if this was what he could expect as the outcome.
âGo back to sleep now!â Sherry maintained her deadpan expression while she said without emotion. Her initially composed face now had a hint of worry. With the way he was looking right now, there was no difference between him and someone who hailed from the garbage area. She couldnât help but frown at his face which was decorated by a mustache.
âI donât want to!â Williamâs tone revealed his excessive worry towards her. He inched close by her bed and wrapped his arms around her while gazing at her with a concerned look, âDonât ask me to go, I donât even want to leave you even for a second. Please forgive me and give me one more chance. I beg you!â
Sherry was startled as she began to push him away. However, he wouldnât budge since his strength was way greater.
âThen, you should go to sleep first!â She replied.
âCan I fall asleep while holding on to you?â He was worried that she would leave him.
She stole a glance at her small bed and shook her head, âYou can sleep at that small bed there. There isnât enough space here. We can talk after you have gotten enough sleep.â
If he continued to behave like this, he would really collapse. She wouldnât want to see that happening.
Sherry felt her eyes sting, and as she pushed Williamsâ body off her own, she smiled faintly while tidying up his shirt, âIf you donât go to sleep now, I will need to ask you to leave and I will never see you again!â
âNo! I will sleep now. I will listen to you!â He immediately let go of her but he was just sprawled out on the edge of her bed while continued to hold her hand. âI will just lie here and take a short nap. I will be fine! Donât worry about me!â
Was she worried about him?
Sherry sighed secretly while conceding to the fact that she was actually worried about him. She was that useless. When she wanted to retrieve her hand, she realized that he was gripping her hand tightly, and he was already soundly asleep with his snoring sound abound!
She wanted to remove her hand from his, but he didnât loosen his grip.
âDonât...â He was muttering something in his sleep with difficulty. He was in between a dream and reality, and his original domineering and arrogant self was all but gone without a trace. All that was left on him was endless pain. His brows furrowed tightly, and he inadvertently increased his grip on her hand, as if he had come to a conviction that he would never let go of her anymore.
She tried to retrieve her hand, but William had enormous strength all along, so Sherry wasnât able to accomplish that.
She was very weak at the moment, and she started to feel tired once again as she let out a yawn. She shot a glance at William who wasnât sleeping very soundly, and she tried to take back her hand. However, it was to no avail as her hand was gridlocked tightly in his.
In the silent ward, the night was getting darker. His steady and regular breathing reverberated in the atmosphere. When Sherry closed her eyes, William opened his.
He didnât actually fall asleep for real. He knew that she also didnât get enough sleep in the past few days, and as he watched her peaceful face as she went to the dream world, he planted a kiss on her cheeks longingly. He flung the blanket aside and went into bed with her. He snuggled with her and let her lie in his warm embrace.
While she was deep in her slumber, she felt a strange warmth emanating from somewhere nearby her. Sherry subconsciously inched closer towards that warm hug and adjusted her posture to one that was comfortable to her. She continued to sleep soundly without a hitch!
William didnât fall asleep in the end, and his mind was replaying the outcome reported by Alexis, âWill, Reggie is Lucilleâs husband in France, and they had divorced each other one year ago. To put it more precisely, Lucille had entered the mental hospital after her divorce, and in other words, that matter about sexual abuse is not legitimate!â
William could feel his whole frame freeze. The moment he answered that call, he only realized how wrong he had been all along! He had been forming his own speculation by himself, yet the truth was a far cry from it.
After that, Alexis added, âLucille actually self-inflicted those wounds on herself!â
It turned out that she had been abusing herself by her own volition, and he had misinterpreted it as her getting abused sexually because she couldnât bear a child. He had been feeling very sorry for Lucille since knowing her inability to give birth, yet, he never entertained the thought of her abusing herself!
This mistake had cost him his own child and Sherryâs sadness. He had caused himself to go through much grief! He was really unforgivable.
John came to the hospital once again, and when he entered the ward, he saw William hugging Sherry with his bloodshot eyes bulging on his face.
Yet, he was not asleep anytime soon. William was just staring at the woman in his arms with a complicated look.
âCome out now!â John called out with a frown.
William was afraid that Sherry would be disturbed, so he immediately got off bed and covered her with blanket before exiting the ward.
The father and son duo stood in the corridor, and John was looking at William with disgust on his face, âYou are being too disgusting do you know that? Go back home and bath yourself and get a change of clothes. You are loitering around in the hospital where there are germs everywhere. Donât you know that she is very weak right now? What if she gets infected? I will need to wait for too long before I can see my next grandson.â
âDad!â William was suddenly very worried upon hearing his fatherâs words, âI will ask for the nurse to change her bed sheet!â
âI will do that myself, you just need to go back now. I will look after her and you donât need to oversee anything that happens in the company. In this one month, you have to make up for your mistakes to my daughter-in-law. You must make sure she can recover her happiness and remain healthy.
Thatâs all you need to do!â John said in a low voice.
John was the type of person who was hard on the outside but soft on the inside. He was always silent, which made him look cold and distant, but in reality his heart was still seeping with warmth. William immediately nodded and he could feel a strange warmness permeating his body. He knew that his father was just worried about him and Sherry.
âOne more thing, donât drive. Riley, send the young master back!â John dished out another order.
âDad, donât leave this place. Wait for me to come back, I have something I need to tend to!â William wanted to look for Lucille. This time, he had to find out the truth!
âYou donât have anything to worry about. I will be here, so you donât have to worry!â John said with a tensed expression and he added, âI wonât go as long as I donât see you return here!â
William could finally be rest assured, and he opened the door to take one last look at Sherry who was sleeping soundly. He reminded his father, âDonât wake her up, she didnât have much rest in the past few days!â
A Moment in Destiny ï¤Chapter 142 Break You Up The convenient Bride ï¤Chapter 414: There Is Nothing Happier Than This (Ending)
Predestined Marriage ï¤Chapter 1718: The End âI know that!â If he had always been so caring towards Sherry, John wouldnât have lost his grandson. This was really karma. John sighed and entered the ward. His gaze fell on Sherryâs pale face, and the wrinkles on his face softened considerably. He was gazing at her like she was his real daughter.
Although he was very traditional in terms of thinking, but after investigating Sherryâs life in the past five years, he couldnât help feeling impressed by this woman. She had gone through so much difficulty, yet she never faltered in her path to her goals. This woman was worthy of the title of Mrs.
Rowland! It was one of the reason he no longer objected their unionâ
When Cohen finally learnt from Reggie that Sherry had a miscarriage, he almost went crazy! He roared into the phone, âDamn it, why would she have a miscarriage? Go to the hospital now!â
