Chapter 820: Chapter 820

Stella didn’t believe what he said. Curling her lips, she said, “That's not what you said last time.”

“Didn’t I?”

“No, you didn’t.”

“You must have made a mistake.”

Stella was about to retort, but her lips were sealed by his.

Clarence wrapped his arms around her waist and said in a deep tone, “We shall do what we ought to do now, Babe.”

Stella was wordless.

...

On the other side, Sherry sat at the table in disappointment, watching her father chatting with Daniel with interest.

She tried several times to interrupt them, but her mother stopped her.

Mrs. Perry said in a low voice, “Your father hasn’t been so happy for a long time. Don’t ruin his mood.”

Sherry said, “The doctor reminded him not to drink. He...”

“You should know your father well. That’s his only hobby. He hasn’t drunk for a long time. Besides, I’m watching him. I know when to stop him. Don’t worry.”

Sherry failed, only browsing her phone to kill time.

While talking to Sherry’s father, Daniel turned to look at her. His smile faded.

He could tell she had run out of her patience.

He had come to town without telling her ahead. Since his goal had been achieved, Daniel believed that he should not overdo it.

He withdrew his gaze and stood up. “Mr. and Mrs. Perry. It’s getting late. I should go now.”

Mr. Perry checked the time on his phone -- it was eleven in the evening.

He stood up. “Okay. Be careful when going back. Where do you stay?”

Daniel said, “Not far from here. It’ll take no time to arrive.”

Sherry’s mother said, “Daniel, remember what I said? If you want to have the homemade dishes, come over at any time. Make yourself home.”

Daniel smiled. “I remember it. Thank you, Mrs. Perry.”

Mrs. Perry smiled delightfully and looked over at Sherry. “Sherry, why don’t you walk Daniel out? Your father is drunk. I’ll take care of him.”

Sherry hummed, picked up her phone, and walked to the door.

Looking at her receding figure, Mrs. Perry said to Daniel, “Please don’t mind her. She’s not like this usually.”

Daniel said, “I know. Bye, Mr. and Mrs. Perry.”

Then he nodded at them before following Sherry in a hurry.

After they were gone, Mrs. Perry said in satisfaction, “This is my first time seeing such a handsome and well-mannered boy. He’s much better than Elliot. Sherry deserves this a man like this.”

Mr. Perry said, “But it seems Sherry doesn’t like him much. Daniel is indeed a good boy. I like him.”

Mrs. Perry glared at him. “What do you know? Girls should be reserved. She can't just her emotion so openly when meeting a man for the first time!

Besides, he’s exactly Sherry’s type. Now, she has met a man fitting all her requirements. She’s so lucky. I don’t think she would let go of this chance.”

“All right. All right. But our opinions don’t matter. She must agree.”

Mrs. Perry said mysteriously, “You know what? Sherry must have a crush on him. Just wait for Daniel to become your son-in-law.”

Mr. Perry asked in confusion, “How did you know?”

“If Sherry doesn’t have a crush on him, how could she remember he was fond of canned food? They just met each other, right, but she already knew what he liked. Don’t you think she has feelings for him?”

Mr. Perry was shocked. “Oh, I see.”

Mrs. Perry said complacently. “Am I right? Just wait and see. Probably we’ll have a grandson next year.”

...

Downstairs.

Sherry said with a stern look, “Just go home. Don’t come to bother my parents. Don’t mind what they have said.”

Daniel paused his pace. “Why?”

Sherry laughed in anger. How cheeky he was.

She turned to look at him. “I’ve told you my parents are just common people. They’re not as open-minded as you regarding marriage,. They hope the man I date will marry me. Hence, you...”

Daniel said, “If I don’t want to marry you, why did I come to meet your parents?”

“What?”

Daniel pursed his lips and said steadily, “I know I’ve made a lot of mistakes before. I kept letting you down. But I swear I do love you. It’s true.”

Sherry had experienced ups and downs, so she didn’t fall into such a honey trap.

She calmed down and said, “They also don’t accept flash marriage or flash divorce, either.”

Daniel was wordless.

He asked, “Am I not worth trusting?”

Sherry smiled. “I trust you. It’s just I'm well aware of what you want. All you want is the constant sense of newness and a partner that you can break up with peacefully.

“You said you loved me. Probably you do, but how long will it last? After you’ve lost interest in me, you can fall in love with another girl quickly. But I can’t find another man so soon. I’ve lost the courage to love a man. I no longer want to be in a relationship without future.”

Daniel stared at her and said softly, “I understand what you mean. In a word, you don’t think I love you enough or I can make you feel secure.”

Sherry was taken aback, amazed by his conclusion.

Daniel added, “I never make promises easily. However, as long as I make my promise, I’ll never go back on my word.”

“Are you willing to gamble it with me?” Daniel added, “No matter who you’ll marry, the future is unpredictable. Since then, why can’t you choose me to get married? At least, we like each other.”

Sherry gaped. For a moment, she didn’t know how to retort.

It seemed to make sense.

Right then, they hear a man’s voice. “Sherry?”

Sherry returned to her senses and turned around.

Elliot was standing nearby while holding a garbage sack, looking at them expressionlessly.

Sherry asked, “What’s the matter?”

Elliot walked over. “I recognized you from your figure.”

Then he looked at Daniel up and down. “Who is this...”

He seemed to question her. Sherry was amused. She said rudely, “It’s none of your business. Should I explain it to you or what?”

Elliot’s expression changed. He made an excuse. “We’re neighbors. As a girl, you're out here alone. I shall look out for you, right?”

“Oh. I didn’t expect you to care about me so much. You must have pressed the wrong button to delete me from your contact list.”
