The President’s Stubborn Love

Chapter 140 – The Wound



Sherry stands quietly in the doorway of her office, like a statue.

Ignore the inquiring glances of the staff.

In this world, the only thing that matters is how to live; so-called pain and sadness are emotional attachments that are inconsequential.

Including, love.

The Night Group’s PR department is very capable and word has spread after Aaron took Sherry into the Albert Group hospital ward.

Some say Aaron was so overwhelmed by love that he actually did something so out of character to keep Sherry.

Someone else posted a picture of Sherry and Aaron standing together at the time and surprisingly someone started attacking Sherry’s looks, saying she looked like a natural vixen.

All of her personal circumstances were posted online, and people even sent messages calling her out.

Sherry now understands what Aaron just meant when he said that there was only one chance.

If she asks for his help, Night Group PR will deal with the negative press as well, and she can become that special case that he protects by his side.

But at the same time, she will never be able to shake off the identity of Aaron’s mistress.

And just a few hours earlier, she had turned down the opportunity to have him as her umbrella, meaning that Aaron would stand by and do nothing, no matter what the Henry Family and those in the group did to her.

The man changed into his wide hospital gown and glanced over at her with one cold eye, “Come here.”

Two emotionless words interrupted Sherry’s thoughts, and she was obedient like a puppet.

“Scared?”

Sherry’s heartbeat grew heavier as she listened to his amused laughter.

“Mr. Swift’s words, I can’t understand.”

Her wrists tightened and she was pulled violently towards the man in front of her, facing each other with all eyes, “If the Henry Family people ask about your relationship with me, you should know how to answer.”

“I …”

“Remember clearly that it was for your sake that I repeatedly refused to marry Nola, and even more so that I squashed the scandal of the engagement party to protect you.”

Sherry couldn’t stop laughing at this point.

That is, he has to take on the wrath of his father and the Henry Family himself and take the blame for everything?

Her throat suddenly became dry and thirsty.

In my ear, there was the man’s hushed voice, “I told you, there’s only one chance.”

He had never been so forgiving of another woman, but Sherry had been so insistent in her refusal, and proud as he was, he was justifiably angry.

But this is not a trivial matter.

With Alex’s style of working, I’m afraid Sherry will be torn apart by the Henry Family.

Aaron forbade her to leave.

His body was slumped against the bed, his eyes closed for a nap, but everything that was happening in this room was under his control, even, the reaction of the outside world was within his plan.

Not long after, Arthur bursts in with Seth and the Henry Family bodyguards.

“Nonsense, you’ve disgraced the Henry Family!” Arthur was furious and looked straight at the disobedient son in front of him.

Aaron then opened his eyes, his voice faint, “Your son has just come back from the dead, even if it was an act, shouldn’t you have asked me about my health first?”

Arthur’s eyes were suddenly cold.

“You …”

“After all, how else am I going to be a stand-in for that guy if something goes wrong with my body.” Aaron laughed mockingly, his handsome face so charming.

Sherry couldn’t help but frown at the word understudy.

It was only after she returned from the Henry Family that she learned that another reason Aaron would be so highly regarded as a bastard was that the Henry Family had always treated him as a second Alex.

If the Group makes any irreparable mistakes, then Aaron will be pushed out as a stand-in heir and take full responsibility.

Growing up, he was brought up as such a being to face his own father.

It’s no wonder his personality has become so inscrutable.

“Mr. Arthur, why don’t you have a seat?” Seth duly stepped forward and reminded Arthur, that Sherry was still in this ward.

At that moment, Sherry became aware of an unmistakable and majestic gaze that fell upon her.

Not as cold as Aaron’s eyes, but more oppressive, causing her to subconsciously hold her breath, not daring to meet her opponent’s gaze.

Arthur stared at Sherry for a long time.

“Is she the source of your nonsense to this point?” The words were filled with disbelief.

No matter how he looked at it, he couldn’t see anything about Sherry that was worth Aaron turning his back on her and going to this extent with the Garcia Family and the Hal Family.

Sherry was as quiet as if she didn’t exist.

But Aaron was pulling her into this vortex, “I’ve had to have her my whole life.”

His expression at the moment was so calm and collected that even Sherry had to believe it, but her mind had nothing but a frantic heartbeat and a lingering shred of sanity.

This is just one of Aaron’s moves in declaring war on the Henry Family.

There is no point.

At these words, Arthur’s expression changed abruptly, “How dare you! The Henry Family has nurtured you for so many years, yet they have produced such an ungrateful person.

He raised his hand back.

Seth dangled his head and handed over a bamboo strip.

“On your knees!”

“I’ve just been wounded and I can’t kneel.” Aaron’s eyes were cold and emotionless as he retorted.

Arthur immediately bellowed, “Fine, then I’ll beat you until you can never get out of bed.”

He raised his hand and flung it over.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

However, instead of falling on Aaron, it fell on Sherry.

She lunged from behind in a hurry, blocking it with her body, pain instantly sweeping through her body as her sudden intrusion froze Aaron.

“Sherry, you’re crazy.”

He said so, and his first reaction was to push her away.

But Arthur was furious and threw it down hard, landing hard on Sherry’s shoulder.

“That’s enough!”

Aaron was so anxious that the bottom of his eyes seemed to spurt over and he took Sherry directly into his arms.

One after another, Arthur swung the bamboo bar, the sound echoing through the ward, the nurses outside heard the noise, but they couldn’t go in to stop it.

“If you want to put on a show, I’ll let you have it!”

Aaron was so angry that he grabbed the strip of bamboo.

Father and son, both of whom were furious.

“Don’t.” Sherry’s voice was low as she whispered something to Aaron’s left, and at the sound of the words, Aaron’s expression changed instantly.

He went to resist, and his grip on the bamboo strip was slowly loosened.

Snap!

Arthur gave one more push and the bamboo strip jerked out of Aaron’s hand, his entire right hand was scarred and blood spilled over his skin in a stinging manner.

The heel of the bamboo strip also fell into two random sections.

“Mr. Arthur, you have other plans for the afternoon.” Seth reminded, his voice slow.

Arthur’s angry temper did not get the better of him, and the sight of Aaron, who was clinging to Sherry, made him even more irritated, “Take this woman and you will never touch the Henry Family’s property.”
