The President’s Stubborn Love

Chapter 122 – Staying out of the way



Sitting in the car, Sherry took a deep breath as the rear-view mirror was a complete picture of the entire hotel, gradually becoming a blur, getting smaller and smaller.

“Out of breath?”

Andrew clutched the steering wheel and made a shallow sound.

Sherry hummed.

“So what are your plans, going forward?” Andrew sensibly planned for her, “After the mess you made at the Garcia Family’s engagement party today, they’re not going to let it go easily.”

Especially in Sherry’s current situation, even with evidence in hand, there is no guarantee of her absolute safety.

This is something that Sherry is well aware of.

“I want to get out of here.” It was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a well-considered one. She wanted to say goodbye to everything in this place, once and for all.

Andrew’s warm, jade-like eyes were tinged with a touch of heartache.

“Alternatively, you can …”

Before he could finish his sentence, Sherry’s mobile rang, from the hospital.

Sherry immediately said, “I’ll be right over.”

“The patient had undergone a short recovery period after surgery and the cancer was under control, but last week began with an unexpected change.”

The doctor called Sherry over and gave a careful explanation of Kate’s condition.

During this time, Andrew was waiting for her outside.

In the corridor, Aaron’s cold, mocking voice rang out, “Andrew’s got a lot of time on his hands, spending it with her fooling around.”

Andrew’s eyes snapped defensively, “She’s not messing around, Nola set her up first, Sherry’s just getting a fair result in her own way, if Mr. Swift minds her ruining your engagement party, I’ll say sorry for her.”

“Who are you to be, for her?”

Aaron looked at Andrew’s defensive attitude towards Sherry, and his heart burst with anger.

He didn’t come for Sherry.

He was coming over for a meeting to deal with a follow-up investment when Andrew’s few words stirred up emotions in his mind.

He was about to say something else when Sherry, with a heavy face, walked out of the doctor’s office, “I’ll think of something.”

All her thoughts were on what the doctor had just said and she didn’t particularly notice Aaron standing outside.

“Andrew, thanks for the lift, I have things to do, I’ll leave you to it.”

Without much explanation, Sherry ran off at a fast pace with her bag on her back.

Andrew thought nothing of it and followed straight on.

Aaron stared at their backs and turned to push open the door to the doctor’s office.

Later that evening, Sherry called several medical facilities, but none were willing to take Kate for transfer.

“I’m sorry Sherry, there is no precedent for this in our hospital.”

“It is recommended that you find a separate adaptation of …”

Sherry sighed deeply as she listened to the rejections.

She temporarily rented a short term flat in the alley behind the hospital, and when she looked up, she could see the hospital building through the small window.

“Don’t worry, Mum, I’ll think of something.”

Early the next morning.

The photo of Nola making a fool of herself at the engagement party hit the headlines and incidentally led to a lot of dark stories about Nola’s time as a student.

Sherry frowned at the message pushed to her phone.

They were not put out by her.

But if it was linked to what happened yesterday, it would certainly be assumed that it was all her doing.

A closer look at Nola’s revelations may seem harsh, but they’re all minor and inconsequential, more like an attempt to cover up the fact that the Garcia Family has been disgraced.

But Sherry had no time for that at the moment. She went straight to the hospital and continued to try to figure out what to do.

Unexpectedly, just as she arrived at the door of the ward, she heard the good news from the nurse, “The hospital has hired a first-class international specialist and will operate on your mother for the second time next Monday.”

“Really?”

Sherry’s eyes lit up.

But then quickly considered the practicalities, “I can’t get that much for the time being in terms of surgery, but I’ll definitely raise it.”

Even if she had to sell herself, she would have raised the money.

The nurse smiled and said, “Someone has already advanced the cost for you.”Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Who …”

Sherry turned around again to see Nola appearing at the lift entrance, with two journalists, walking towards her, carrying fruit and gifts.

“I’m the one who arranged the surgery for your mother.”

Nola came over, “It just so happens that my eldest uncle is doing research on this abroad and could, reluctantly, help your mother with the operation.”

The reporter behind her kept the camera raised and pointed at Nola’s face.

Nola’s eyes were red and she whispered to Sherry, “I was wrong in the past, I did a lot of things to hurt you and I sincerely apologize to you now.”

“In future, I will be responsible for all your mother’s surgical expenses.”

Nola blinked and glanced over at the reporter before immediately returning to her usual condescending demeanor.

Then, with a cold smile, she took those gifts and threw them in front of Sherry.

“Even if you ruin my engagement party, so what?”

“Sherry, you have no idea of the real gap between us, and even if I did something terribly wrong, all traces of it would be wiped away.”

Nola covered her mouth and laughed.

“But what about you? You’ve had to bow down to others and beg for mercy all your life, because your life, it’s just so miserable, and it just so happens that, ah, your mother needs an operation that only my eldest can do.”

The more she said, the deeper her smile grew.

All of it, all of it, is an act.

“Sherry, I’m just saying, I’m not going to actually arrange an operation for your mother, just wait, hold her funeral service.”

This is the line of a famous woman’s daughter.

That’s the kind of compensation the Garcia Family offers, and it’s pretty sickening!

Nola shrugged off these words, got another satisfying video, put on her sunglasses and was about to leave.

Without thinking about it, just take a step.

“Nola.”

Sherry called out to her from behind.

Then the gift boxes were smashed against Nola’s head, and before she could react, Sherry had yanked her back by the hair.

“Ah!”

Nola’s screams surrounded the entire corridor.

“Sherry, you crazy bastard.”

Snap.

A crisp slap.

Nola was furious and yelled at the two reporters, “Get the camera, she hit me in public!”

The journalists immediately nodded their heads.

Sherry, however, was not at all impressed and tugged harder at Nola’s hand.

“Even if you have the Garcia Family behind you, you can’t provoke me again and again, Nola, if you really dare to play with my mother’s life, I’ll show you that I don’t mind at all, another few years in jail.”

Sherry said, revealing the sharp hairpin in her hand and slashing it violently at Nola’s face.

With such a stroke, Nola will be scarred, if not disfigured, on her face.

She screamed so loudly in fear that her voice almost pierced everyone’s eardrums.

At the far end of the corridor, the long, happy figure had been standing for a long time.

“Mr. Swift, Nola should have been the one to mess with Sherry first, but at this rate, I’m afraid someone will get killed, really, without having to intervene?”
