Chapter 119: Chapter 119

Before Sherry said anything, Celia screamed again, "Aah! Another cute child! This child is so handsome! Who is this?"

She thought to herself, was this the child whom she only saw once from five years ago?

Celia looked to Sherry excitedly who nodded and said, “Celia, this is Samuel! My son...”

“Ah! So I have two godsons! Come here, baby, I won’t be biased; both of you all give me a kiss!” Celia said as she moved up to hug Samuel, then left a red kiss mark on his face.

Samuel’s face flushed red immediately and he turned back to look at Sherry.

Sherry let out a laugh, “Samuel, this is Ms. Celia!”

“Oh, baby; I hugged you once when you were born. Other than the doctors, I was the first to see you! Even before your mom! Oh, come now, are you shy?” Celia said enthusiastically.

“Hello, Ms. Celia!” Samuel finally spoke, but he still felt slightly afraid inside.

“Good boy!” Celia continued to hug him, then, with both children still in her hand, she noticed another tall figure in the room.

“Oh! Who is he?”

Keegan realized that this fashionable woman barely noticed him just now, and Sherry laughed. “Celia, this is my coworker, Keegan!”

After the introduction, Celia felt apologetic, “So sorry, I was so excited to see my godsons that I didn’t notice you!”

“No worries!” Keegan didn’t mind; he put the ingredients he held in the kitchen. “Sherry, you go rest; I’ll let you know once food’s ready!”

“Mr. Keegan, you know how to cook?” Daniel asked.

“Course!” Keegan said and nodded.

“Wow! That’s awesome!”

Celia noticed that Sherry’s eyes were red and confusedly asked, “Are you alright?”

“She’s not feeling well; the doctor said she needs to rest more and recover!” Keegan replied.

“Oh, I see; no wonder her face looks ill. I’ll help cook, the kids can go play, and Sherry, you go rest! I’ll help out Keegan!”

“Will you now?” Sherry laughed; she knew that Keegan was really hopeless in the kitchen!

Celia frowned; she said in a low voice, “Hey, even if I’m not good at cooking, I gotta pretend I am, no? I can help wash vegetables or something. I can’t let our guest do all the work in his first visit, right?”

“Hahah... Fine, you help Keegan, I’ll go to the room and rest!” Sherry’s cell rang; it was William calling. Her face turned pale for a second.

“Sherry, is it William?” Celia noted the tension Sherry felt. “Is it really over between you two?”

“It’s fine! I’m alright. You go helpKeegan!” Sherry said as she headed to her room.

She hung up the call and put her cell on the table.

William saw his call rejected; his hand tightened its grip on the steering wheel until his knuckles were white. A shroud of grimness overshadowed his face, and as he tried to call again, he realized his hand was shaking!

Sherry’s cell rang again; she had to pick it up this time.

“Sherry, where are you? I’ll go get you!” William said hastily.

“You’ve got the wrong number! If you call this number again, I’ll change numbers!” Sherry said in a low voice; there was a slight tremble in her tone.

“Sherry, at least tell me where you are? Someone said you went to get a hotel room with a man, is it true? I need to know!” He blurted out everything that ran through his mind.

But as soon as he said this, Sherry’s entire body froze in place.

Get a hotel room?

Get a hotel room with a man?

She tightly held a cup in hand and took quite some effort to bring it to her lips. Though the water was rather warm, she only felt coldness, so cold that her entire body shivered.

“Sherry, are you really planning to sleep with another man?” William continued to ask in a trembling manner, “Are you planning to torture me like this?”

Sherry felt as if her heart had plummeted into a bottomless abyss; she could only feel sweat form on the back of her hand. She put the cup down and held onto the table to support herself. Her heart throbbed in pain.

Who would say such a thing to him?

But she was furious, angered that he did not believe in her integrity! Why would he so easily believe anyone that said she ran off to sleep with another man? If she was so fickle, then maybe she would not feel so much pain!

His mistrust in her made her feel as if she was in an ice locker. As her heart still trembled, she replied coldly, “That’s right! I’m going to sleep with another man! What’s that got to do with you, Mr. Rowland?”

Suddenly, there was no reply, just the sudden screeching sound of an emergency brake on the other end of the phone...

“William? William?” Sherry’s heart pounded, but there was no reply. Then, there was only a beeping tone; the call was cut off!

Her blood stood still; Sherry was motionless, and as if the air in the room began to freeze over, she began to shiver.

She called back, but there was no answer...

“Sherry, what’s wrong?” Celia came in the room to check on Sherry, only to see her running about in a panic.

“An accident; Celia, William might be in an accident!” Sherry’s cold hands grabbed Celia’s.

“What’s wrong?” Celia was startled.

“A car accident, he was in a car accident!” Sherry heard the sound of screeching tires; it must have been a car accident. “I’m heading out, watch the kids!”

Before she gave any further explanation, Sherry was already out the door.

The blue Bugatti was parked right in the middle of one of the busiest intersections. A huge line of cars were stuck and honking their horns behind him, but William paid no mind.

William sat still in his seat. No matter how many cars were lined up behind him, at this point, he only felt as if his heart was hollow!

It’s as though his consciousness ceased to exist as well!

Pain, struggle, sadness, hatred, regret, anxiousness; a mixture of feelings surrounded him. He felt as if he was falling into a bottomless abyss right now; not dying, but just free falling endlessly.

His internal organs all felt as if they were in pain. As he wallowed in that painful moment, the only thing that came to mind was that sweet, gentle face.

Right now, all he could think about was Sherry!

Right now, the painful grief he experienced was much stronger than the pain he felt when Lucille had betrayed him!

It was much more painful by a hundred folds!

His phone continued to ring, but he didn’t pick up. It was as though his soul was whisked away. He did not even have the sense left to answer the call, nor did he even realized that the traffic police was headed towards him.

His consciousness struggled to make sense of anything, but it was as though everything was muddled together; William couldn’t make head nor tails of anything, and it felt as though every nerve ending cried out in pain.

She said she was going to sleep another man...

Don’t do it...

At the mere thought of Sherry sleeping with another man, his heart felt as if he was being lashed by a whip...

Within the taxi, Sherry kept trying to reach William’s cell, but no there was no answer.

Suddenly, Sherry thought to call Liam, “Liam, William might be in a car accident, I can’t reach him...”

“Sherry! Don’t panic, I’m on my way to the traffic police right now. There was a small incident, but it’s no big deal, don’t worry, William’s fine!”

“Is William OK?”

“They said he’s fine, but I must go see for myself! Where are you now?”

“I’ll go to the station as well!” Sherry immediately asked the taxi driver to turn around.

The first thing they saw once they reached the police station was the blue Bugatti in the impound yard.

“Where’s William?” Sherry asked in a dazed. The car was fine, but where was the driver?

She let out a sigh of relief, only to tense up again. “Officer, where’s the driver?”

“William? William?” Liam noticed that William was still in the car. He tapped the car window, but William just sat still in the driver’s seat. There was a hollowed look in his eyes, and his entire being looked as if he was a statue.

“Sir, don’t bother; we smacked the windows until our hands turned numb, and he still won’t open the door. We checked the license plate in order to get a contact number to your company. He was parked on one of the busiest streets, causing a traffic jam of over 300 cars. We suspect he’s drunk and afraid to get detained, so that’s why he won’t open the door! There was nothing else we could do, so we towed his car back here...”

“That’s impossible!” Liam said, “Why would he be drinking in the morning! It’s not even lunch time, there’s no way he would be drinking!”

“I’ll go get him!” Sherry let out a sigh of relief and felt her heart ache. This fool! To think he parked in the middle of the street.

“William Rowland, open the door! It’s Sherry!” She tapped the car window.

However, William still did not respond. Sherry continued, “William, if you don’t open up, I’ll never forgive you in this lifetime, never! Do you hear?”

The officer sighed and asked, “Maybe he just went through a breakup?”

“Good eye, officer; my friend did just breakup, so that’s why he’s acting so abnormal!” Liam explained embarrassingly.

“Even so, he can’t just block traffic! According to the traffic laws, he should be punished and detained for disturbing the public like this!”

“Uh, officer, a fine, just a fine is enough!” Liam tried to appeal to the traffic officer for leniency.

“Fine, but only if we make sure he was not drunk driving after he comes out!”

Sherry was at the end of the rope with her threats; still William didn’t budge. “William! William, open up...”

She walked to the hood of the car to get a good look at the man inside.

William seemed fixed in a daze; he did not return to his senses at all. It was as though he was in a dream.

Sherry gazed at him from outside the car; she called his cell, but he still did not move. His eyes were staring at the air and overlooked her completely.

She had the urge to smash the car.

Looking at his current state, there was an unspeakable pain in her heart. How could she possibly leave him like this!

Sherry began to cry; she already lost count of the number of times she had cried just that morning. Looking at his incapacitated state, she cried even harder, and her body began to sway as if she was going to faint. Liam managed to catch her in time. “Sherry, it’s fine, he’s fine, don’t worry!”

“Liam!” Sherry was pale, and tears streaked down her face, “He won’t open the door, he won’t open...”

“Let me try!” Liam stood before the car hood and waved his hands, “Will, open the door! Sherry’s crying, hurry up and open up! Open!”

A Moment in Destiny Chapter 118 Dialogue The convenient Bride Chapter 414: There Is Nothing Happier Than This (Ending)

Predestined Marriage Chapter 1718: The End As if she suddenly realized something, Sherry remembered the phone conversation she had with William just earlier, about her sleeping with another man. Could that be the reason why he was like this?

Immediately, she stood upright and walked over to the driver seat’s car window, “William, it’s not true, I’m not with anyone, I didn’t go sleep with another man; open up the door, will you?”
