The President’s Stubborn Love

At this point in the play, Sherry can clearly feel her heartbeat gradually becoming more and more jumbled.

As well as feeling an inexplicable emotion growing inside her, she had the feeling that this man was far more frightening than he looked.

Those deep eyes hide a mind that one cannot see through.

He had a playful mind for her, or a few moments of curiosity existed.

Sherry felt the palm that had landed on her waist was slowly tightening, holding a little fire.

With so many people watching, she certainly couldn’t embarrass him.

Her eyes darted and she swung around into his arms with the force of his grip, her hand just barely pulling on his jacket and her head buried in his arms in the process.

Without a word, her reaction said it all.

It was clearly just a bickering between young lovers.

Flair’s eyes were quenched with jealousy and one hand was about to rip the dress skirt from her body, “I didn’t really think you’d like this type of woman.”

What she wanted to say was far more vicious than that.

But with Edward there, and him seemingly doting on Sherry, Flair is not foolish enough to jump the gun. She watches Sherry’s every move with her mind made up that she will dig up all of Sherry’s background information and send it to the Colin Family.

She just couldn’t believe that a fake millennial she didn’t even know in the Seattle celebrity scene could be of any great origin.

As long as it’s not as good as their Abbott Family, she can run her over without much effort.

At this point, someone next to him also whispered, “The Colin Family is still married to the Garcia Family, right?” “How can the Garcia Family lose face now that Edward is openly dating another woman?”

“Mr. Jair!”

Jair walked towards them with a sullen face.

Those who were gossiping shut their mouths and looked at them with probing, curious eyes.

“Dad, I’ll go back to … about this,” Ryan said instantly, going over and trying to stop it.

A look from Jair and he didn’t dare to say anything. He gave Edward a wink and said that if he played around, they would both be in trouble if they upset the elders.

However, he was afraid of his dad, but Edward was not.

“Edward, this is?” Jair’s eyes fell on Sherry and Edward with a sultry, ulterior motive.

Sherry also knew about the engagement between their two families and her body stiffened.

She was still treated like a dispensable plaything, otherwise, what normal man would offer to hang out with her when he had a fiancée.

She now only felt so humble and ridiculous for the offer she had just made.

For people like them, feelings are worthless in the face of power, as they are for Aaron, as they are for Andrew, and as they are for this Mr. Edward before them, they are no different.

Her heartbeat slowly cooled.

Only the man holding her clearly felt the change in her.

His brow furrowed, but he did not release his arms around her, shielding her from Jair’s face.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

“Uncle Jair, this is my girlfriend, I’ve only been dating for a little while, so, no public introductions, sorry.”

Edward admitted it.

The whole room was in an uproar.

How many pairs of watching eyes were beating between them.

Flair is even more jealous and wants to stare a hole in Sherry alive.

“She’s rather shy, so I’ll take her back first.” Edward said so and was about to lead Sherry out the door.

“Come to the Garcia Family some time.” Jair’s voice was intimidating and he was doing the Colin Family a favor by saying so.

Edward nodded his head and said yes.

This side took Sherry and headed out.

The person in his arms was out of his embrace as soon as he left the gate.

Edward felt the empty touch in his hand, “You woman, you change your face so quickly.”

“It’s been a really rough day, thank you for being willing to help me.” Sherry glanced down the hall inside, “Better, let’s talk somewhere else.”

“My house?”

Edward raised his eyebrows and saw a look of panic emerge on Sherry’s face.

He spared a smile that curved the corners of his lips.

“Just teasing, there’s a lot that’s inconvenient with parents at home.” His hand swept down her side and he pulled open the car door, his voice sounding hushed in her ear, “Get in first, it’s going to rain.”

Sherry’s mood was high and low.

It’s as if you’re on a rollercoaster ride.

She didn’t want to linger here before she ran into the Garcia Family again. This was ridiculous enough tonight and she needed time to talk to him.

The car is indeed a nice and quiet option.

“What am I going to say if Ryan asks?” Sherry had this on her mind and opened her mouth as soon as she got in the car.

Edward was just settling into his seat and sniffed, a little unhappily.

“You …”

She wants to talk somewhere else because of this?

He instructed the driver to drive first, and the light from the window outlined his engraved features, a face so cold and stern, but a little softer because of the dim light.

He turned his head sideways and crashed into Sherry’s delicate gaze.

In a flash, the words that had reached his lips changed, “I meant every word I said tonight, and you agreed to it then, and to be backtracking now is to play me.”

“…”

“Maybe Ryan hasn’t told you that I, for one, don’t have that good of a temper.”

There was already a chill in his eyes.

Sherry frowned, she didn’t say she was going to regret it, just …

She took a deep breath and looked at him again, “Edward.”

She was instead calling him by his first name.

The man’s eyes narrowed as he reached forward and hooked a hand in the stray hair around her ear, waiting for her to say something.

What he didn’t expect was for Sherry to find the courage to hold his wrist, “I know there’s no shortage of women around for someone of your stature, but if you’re just looking for someone to have a little fun with, could you, please, leave me alone.”

“I know I’m in no position to make terms with you, and maybe you’re just curious on a whim and won’t even remember me as a person after a few days.”

“So, could you please, let me off at the front and pretend that what happened tonight, never happened.”

Her eyes were full of sincerity.

Not to get out of it and to draw a line under him now that he’s done using it, but for another reason.

Edward stared at her for a long time.

“Stop in front.”

With this command, he relieved Sherry, but at the same time, ruined the last shred of expectation in her heart.

The car door opened and she was left on the street.

After an unknown amount of time, she got herself together and took a taxi back to the hotel.

As soon as she entered the lobby, she was greeted by someone and handed a designer bag, “Miss. Sherry, these are your clothes and dinner is ready, will they be delivered to your room now?”

“… OK, thanks.”

It was Ryan who had prepared it, she thought.

Which knew that when I got back, there was a note on top of the beige business suit, “If you think the pace is too fast, I can work with you and take my time.”

Signed, Edward.

Sherry looked at the note for a long time, unable to speak.

If, however, he did not have a fiancée, this night would truly be as beautiful as a dream.

She didn’t hesitate to put things away as they were, and drank only plain water for dinner; what shouldn’t belong to her, she should stop fooling around with.
