A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 143 The Truth of the Matter

"Haven't Mr. Rowland done this before? Didn't you forbid mummy and William to see each other? Isn't the situation now comply to your wishes?" Dan wasn't going to back off. "William, please go out. Mummy,

don't you want to see him?"

Sherry was stunned for a moment before nodding subconsciously.

"Look, my mummy doesn't want to see William, so, please go out, both of you!"

"Your mummy never said that she doesn't want to see me!" John said vehemently.

"In the end, I don't like you guys! Mummy has suffered because of you, I don't like that! Samuel, get them out of here!"

"But..." Samuel didn't dare to do that.

"Then you should go out too! Don't come to see mummy ever again!" Dan wasn't going to hear what they wanted to say. At the moment, he was consumed by rage. He was beyond angry!

"Dan, stop acting like that. Mr. Rowland is your elder!" Sherry tugged her son's 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 Dan's 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 Sherry's side for three whole days, and the two children didn't 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 hadn't seen Sherry for three days, and he was very worried about her. He couldn't 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 wouldn't 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 woman's body was very precious. If something went wrong, one would fall sick very quickly.

After Sherry had finished her soup, she told Mrs. Howe, "Mrs. Howe, you should go back now. I have recovered a lot, and I can walk now!"

After three days, Mrs. Howe had become very familiar with Sherry, and upon recalling William's appearance in the corridor in the past three days without leaving that place, she couldn't help urging Sherry, "Sherry, the young master is just outside the ward. You should let him come to see you!"

Sherry felt her frame tense. Why was he still here? Didn't 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, "The young master didn't 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 wouldn't be able to take everything into consideration since he was like the typical careless and oblivious man. Although he wouldn't 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!"

"Ask him to come in!" Sherry finally made up her mind.

"Are you for real?" Mrs. Howe was delighted to hear that, "I will ask him to come in now!"

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 hadn't forgiven him yet. He wouldn't think of anything else except that!

"Young master, go in now!" Mrs. Howe grabbed his shirt excitedly. "Sherry is asking you to go in!"

"Re-Really?" William was stunned slightly, and he snapped his head upwards abruptly, "Mrs. Howe, are you lying to me?"

"Why 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!" Mrs. Howe was summoning the driver as she replied him.

As the door opened, Sherry didn't see William. Instead, the driver came into the room and following from behind was Mrs. Howe smiling face, "The children are exhausted after watching over you for the whole night. I will let the driver send them back home to rest!"

"But..." Sherry couldn't 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, "Why didn't you go back home?"

He froze for a second, and then a look for jubilance appeared on his face. Was she finally willing to talk to him?

"Sherry, you finally are willing to talk to me?" 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.

"Go back to sleep now!" 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 couldn't help but frown at his face which was decorated by a mustache.

"I don't want to!" William's 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, "Don't ask me to go, I don't even want to leave you even for a second. Please forgive me and give me one more chance. I beg you!"

Sherry was startled as she began to push him away. However, he wouldn't budge since his strength was way greater.

"Then, you should go to sleep first!" She replied.

"Can I fall asleep while holding on to you?" He was worried that she would leave him.

She stole a glance at her small bed and shook her head, "You can sleep at that small bed there. There isn't enough space here. We can talk after you have gotten enough sleep."

If he continued to behave like this, he would really collapse. She wouldn't want to see that happening.

Sherry felt her eyes sting, and as she pushed Williams' body off her own, she smiled faintly while tidying up his shirt, "If you don't go to sleep now, I will need to ask you to leave and I will never see you again!" "No! I will sleep now. I will listen to you!" He immediately let go of her but he was just sprawled out on the edge of her bed while continued to hold her hand. "I will just lie here and take a short nap. I will be fine! Don't worry about me!"

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 didn't loosen his grip.

"Don't..." 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 wasn't 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 wasn't 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 didn't actually fall asleep for real. He knew that she also didn't 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 didn't fall asleep in the end, and his mind was replaying the outcome reported by Alexis, "Will, Reggie is Lucille's 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!"

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, "Lucille actually self-inflicted those wounds on herself!"

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 couldn't 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 Sherry's 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.

"Come out now!" 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, "You 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. Don't 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."

"Dad!" William was suddenly very worried upon hearing his father's words, "I will ask for the nurse to change her bed sheet!"

"I will do that myself, you just need to go back now. I will look after her and you don't 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. That's all you need to do!" 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.

"One more thing, don't drive. Riley, send the young master back!" John dished out another order.

"Dad, don't leave this place. Wait for me to come back, I have something I need to tend to!" William wanted to look for Lucille. This time, he had to find out the truth!

"You don't have anything to worry about. I will be here, so you don't have to worry!" John said with a tensed expression and he added, "I won't go as long as I don't see you return here!"

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, "Don't wake her up, she didn't have much rest in the past few days!"

"I know that!" If he had always been so caring towards Sherry, John wouldn't have lost his grandson. This was really karma. John sighed and entered the ward. His gaze fell on Sherry's 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 Sherry's life in the past five years, he couldn't 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 union-

When Cohen finally learnt from Reggie that Sherry had a miscarriage, he almost went crazy! He roared into the phone, "Damn it, why would she have a miscarriage? Go to the hospital now!”‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
