A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 98 Why Hurt Each Other

She felt embarrassed. What was she thinking? She thought about what Celia said to her the other day. Celia told her that she seemed innocent on the outside and was not in the inside. She was the lustful kind

of woman.

Sherry thought about it and Celia might be right!

"I didn't eat anything and entertained you all day, shouldn't you at least make me a meal?"

"You..." Sherry was tongue-tied.

William parked the car by the road and Sherry got off the car. Celia was already waiting at the entrance.

She stared at the royal blue Bugatti and was taken aback. She walked over, but she didn't go up to Sherry. Instead, she knocked on the window near to the driver's seat.

William wound down the window and peeked his head out, "What?"

"Mr. Rowland, for the first time you made a good decision, you brought Sherry back to me. Otherwise, I would have go to you and get her back!" Celia wanted to give him an earful. She didn't think that he would halt her and take Sherry away in the airport.

William was stunned, but then he smiled, "Miss Hickman, Sherry is fortunate to have you as a friend!"

"Stop your flattery. Tell me, what do you think about Sherry?" Celia pressed her hand against the car window that was wound down halfway. "I'm telling you, don't you dare bully her. I don't care if you're my brother's friend or whatnot. I'll give you hell if you ever bully Sherry!"

"Celia!" Sherry walked around the car and tried to pull Celia away, "Let's go in!"

William snickered, he didn't answer any of Celia's question. Instead, he asked, "I want to bring her on holiday. Can you take care of Dan in the meantime?"

What? Celia was dumbfounded.

"Hey! You haven't answered my question!" Celia wasn't going to let him off the hook.

William looked at Celia and turned his head towards Sherry who looked distressed. His gaze softened, "She's my lover! Miss Hickman, are you content with my answer?"

Celia was shocked, but she then laughed abruptly. She replied without hesitation, "Sure! Go on your holiday and I'll take care of Dan. Sam... Is it Samuel? I also want to see meet Samuel, bring him to me. I'll bring both of them on a trip!"

"Celia!" Sherry's heart was beating fast as she listened to their conversation. He said "lover". He announced that in front of Celia so seriously. She felt touched.

"Wait, one more question1" Celia tapped Sherry on the back as she said, "William, you have to promise that you will never abuse Dan. Dan is also my dear child, nobody can treat him badly with me around!" William thought she was joking, but he nodded and replied, "You're thinking too much! Dan is a cute child, how could I abuse him? Can I go now?"

"Fine!" Celia wasn't expecting William to say that, but she was very satisfied with his answer. "Okay, Sherry. Let's go in, we'll drink till we drop!"

William glanced at Sherry and his eyes flickered. He wound up his window and drove away.

Celia stared at the Bugatti as it passed her by. She was conflicted. "Lover", was she good enough to be his lover? Did she have the right to love somebody?

"What are you looking at?" asked Celia as she lightly tapped her shoulder. Celia was elated, "Sherry, this guy is so handsome. I heard that he was a women-killer, but he got subdued by you!" "Stop talking nonsense! I didn't do anything!" Her face was beet red.

Celia smirked. She then noticed a hickey on Sherry's neck, she smiled even more wickedly. She inched close to Sherry's face and grinned, "Sherry, can I ask you a question?" "What?" Sherry was confused.

"Did you guys just did it?" asked Celia as she laughed, "Tell me, how're his skills in bed?"

"Celia..." Sherry pushed her away. She wanted to dig her hole and stuck her head in it. "You...you're so mean!"

Celia laughed out loud. "I see, you're saying that he's great in bed. Look at your face, it's as red as a tomato! Hahaha... Okay, I'll stop teasing you. Let's go in!"

They walked into the restaurant and saw Susan. She was sitting by the window and was dressed up very nicely as usual. She looked like an independent woman. "Sue is over there!" said Sherry.

"Yeah!" Celia turned around and saw a person with a large build standing not far away from the column. It was her brother, and he was looking at Susan. Celia knew that her brother always stared at Susan whenever she was here.

Sherry looked in Celia's direction seeing that Celia halted in her tracks. She noticed that Leon was smoking in the corner of the restaurant and was staring at Susan.

She was taken aback and was puzzled.

"Let's go over there!" Celia yanked Sherry with her and walked towards Susan. Susan was sitting alone. She ordered a cup of coffee and a steak. The steak was untouched. "Sue!" Sherry hadn't seen her in a long time. The first and last time they met was during the fashion show.

"Oh! Sherry, it's you!" Susan was surprised. She noticed that Celia was there as well and was slightly startled. But she smiled brightly as she said, "Celia, how are you?"

Celia sat down in front of her and said intrusively, "I'm fine, but someone isn't!"

Sherry didn't know why Celia was talking like that. She lightly yanked her shirt.

Susan didn't mind Celia, she smiled and sipped her coffee.

Suddenly, Leon walked over. He probably did so after seeing that Celia and Sherry went up to Susan. He was afraid that they would be up to something. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Hey! The bad person is here!" said Celia coldly.

Sherry realized that maybe something was going on with Leon and Susan.

Susan was dismayed, she stared at Leon and smiled politely, "Why are you here? Are you not busy?"

Leon peered at Susan. He looked indifferent and nonchalant as he said, "Riley, make Celia and Sherry each a cup of coffee and a steak!"

"Brother!" Celia got worried, "Sit here!"

Celia gave him her seat and Leon was sitting right in front of Susan. Now he could look into her eyes and talk to her.

Sherry was sitting next to Susan. She didn't know what happened between Leon and Sue. As things were looking, something bad happened between them.

She felt awkward and hinted Celia to leave with her so that they could sit at another table. But Celia sat down and wasn't going to leave.

Susan was still smiling politely and plainly. She drank her coffee elegantly, "The coffee tastes good, Leon. Your coffee is quite unique!"

"Are you praising me?" asked Leon as he stared into her eyes.

"How're your parents doing?" Susan didn't answer his question and asked him a question instead.

"Their only son's soon-to-be wife ran away and became a monk, never approaching a single woman for 5 years. How would they be doing?" said Leon sarcastically.

Susan was shocked. She lowered her head, and her eyes were dim.

Leon didn't say anything else but continued to stare at her.

Sherry noticed that the expression in Leon's eyes was complicated. Leon probably loved Sue very much.

Susan didn't say a word as she looked down. At this time, the waiter brought the food and drinks over.

Susan still didn't say anything. She held up her fork and knife elegantly and started eating.

Sherry could tell that Leon was holding himself back. It seemed like there was a lot that he wanted to ask, but it all balled up into a deep sigh. He stood up and said plainly, "Enjoy the meal, I'll be back to work!" Susan smiled and said, "Go ahead!"

Celia chased after Leon worriedly. Only Sherry and Susan were left at the table.

"How are you doing recently, Sherry?" asked Susan. She was still smiling as if nothing had happened.

"Sue, I'm great. How about you?" Sherry didn't know what else to say and wanted to ask the question in her mind so badly. She glanced at Leon who left hurriedly and couldn't help herself but asked, "You and Leon..."

"We were classmates!" Susan interrupted Sherry. "Sherry, the steak here tastes great. Try it!"

It was obvious that Susan didn't want to talk about it.

Celia had a sour look on her face when she came back. She stabbed the steak harshly and asked, "Sue, I don't understand. If you don't like my brother, why do you come to his restaurant? You are hurting him on purpose."

Susan was bewildered. Her hands trembled, but she still maintained her smile, "This is a restaurant. I like the vibe here and hence I come here to eat!"

"You were almost my sister-in-law, Sue. You were my future in-law and you suddenly disappeared. You broke up with my brother through a text message and now you consistently appear before him. Don't you think it's weird?" asked Celia furiously.

Sherry finally understood what was going on. Susan and Leon were in a relationship, she even met his parents and they almost got married.

Susan tried to smile even harder, she tried her best to maintain her elegance, "Celia, I will pay attention next time and won't ever appear in front of Leon again! Enjoy your food! I'm done!"

"Sue!" Sherry yanked her back, "You haven't touched your steak yet!"

"Don't leave yet, we need to talk!" said Celia as she gazed sharply into Susan's eyes grasping on her fork and knife. Celia looked like a warrior ready to go into battle, her gaze made people shudder. Susan raised her brow and sat down, "Fine. What do you want, Celia!"

"Sue, my brother still loves you. I also believe that you still love him because you stayed single for all these years! And you always come here. Why would you do this and hurt each other if that wasn't the case? You are getting older, don't waste your time anymore!"

"So what?" asked Susan calmly.

Suddenly, the elevator's door opened and a white figure could be seen. Sherry knew the person, her name was Ashley. She had an arranged marriage meeting with William the other day. This person was also her mother's stepdaughter.

Ashley turned around gracefully as she got onto the second floor. She said to the waiter, "Tell the owner that Ashley is here and he should come out and meet me!"

The waiter quickly went to call for Leon. Soon after, Leon walked across the restaurant. Everyone looked at him as his big stature was eye-catching.

Leon subconsciously glanced at Susan and smiled as he walked towards Ashley. They stood by the elevator and were talking about something. Leon then brought Ashley to a table and they both sat down.

"Can't you let go of your ego? What did my brother do wrong?" Celia didn't notice what was happening behind her! She was still questioning Susan.

"It's not him, it's me!" Leon and Ashley were talking happily. Susan glanced at them briefly and quickly averted her gaze. Her eyes dimmed and she said plainly, "Don't worry, I won't come here anymore!"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
