Chapter 189 – Exiled
Despite Sherry’s words, Edward insisted that the driver take her back.
Later that night, Sherry read the report, “Something happened at the Zillions Group partnership, and a worker was crushed on the spot down the shaft, or risked amputation.”
People’s lives are at stake, so of course Edward has to deal with it personally.
Sherry looked at the TV screen and couldn’t help but reflect on whether she was imagining things too much.
Looking at the empty house again, she shook off the confusing thoughts in her head and went upstairs to sleep.
All unaware of how much of a stir Edward’s move to withdraw from the marriage has caused today.
Edward came home from his busy day to see his dad, George Colin, sitting on the couch drinking tea, but actually waiting for him.
“Done with it?”
“Yes, the hospital side of the medical costs by the company is fully responsible for the family side, I also personally visited, and lawyers have checked the surveillance video, all equipment is running intact, at present speculation, the probability of an accident.” Edward is also a bit tired, looking at the table on the tea, half a day did not pick up a cup.
He knew that his dad was waiting here late at night to ask more than that.
The company’s affairs have long been handed over to him for full management, and he is capable of taking care of this accident.
“Your mother went to a tea party today, Mrs. Abbott told her that you went to the Garcia family to withdraw from the marriage, she came back crying with anger and took medicine at night to fall asleep, you should coax her tomorrow.”
The marriage with the Garcia family has always been Mrs. Colin’s full support, because when she was not married, she and Beinean are good sisters, although the Garcia family child was born and died, but with the Garcia family relationship, she still wants to maintain, and see Beinean Mrs. Colin could not bear to see Beinean losing weight over the years.
Edward went to the Garcia family to withdraw from the marriage and did not tell her, which made Mrs. Colin even more upset.
He did not control his son, only to add another fire to his best friend’s condition.
Edward bowed his head and answered in the affirmative.
“I also heard that you brought a woman along with you?”
George lifted his eyes to look over, “That’s why Miss. Flair is pissed off and wants her mother to step up to the plate.”
Edward’s face remained unchanged, such an outcome was expected.
It just came a little faster than expected.
He hasn’t had time yet, to bring Sherry back.
“After me …”
“Your own business, deal with it yourself, but everything, involving a whole body, you think clearly how to end.” George got up with a little light cough and slowly headed upstairs.
It was late at night and the view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was quiet.
Edward looked at the cups of tea, pressed his brow, took out his phone, flipped open a photo, it was an old photo from a long time ago, there were a dozen children on it, he fixed his gaze on one of the young girls.
A name ground out between thin lips, “Adela.”
As early as a dozen years ago, Edward had moved to withdraw from the idea of marriage, because this girl, for the first time he had a good feeling of ignorance, not love, not even like to call, but then the girl died in an accident, this incident became a scar in Edward’s heart.
He has been haunted for years by the fact that it could not have been an accident.
His heart, too, was completely shut down from that time.
He has not thought of Adela for several years, and recently this time, surprisingly, he would see her figure in his mind, perhaps, because there is a certain moment, Sherry’s character and expression have a few points like her.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
It is not clear who looks like who.
Something indefinable is slowly taking root in his heart.
…
Sherry went to work as usual.
When she reappeared in front of Ryan to deliver the statement, she acted as if nothing had happened yesterday.
So confident and breezy.
No matter how Ryan made things difficult for her and asked all the detailed questions, even if they were not written on the statement, she knew them all, and they were burned into her heart like data.
Evelin, who brought her along for the debriefing, was the only person present who wasn’t surprised.
Although Sherry has been on board for a short time, she has made rapid progress, most notably because she is smart and peaceful, in other words, she puts her heart into her work and not the side streets.
The company has been managed by Ryan since, the culture has been good, like Sherry so hard work, sooner or later will be outstanding.
Just like now.
Even if Ryan wanted to pick a mistake, he couldn’t.
Finally, he actually spilled his temper on the printout, “Such a thick pile, how can I look at it? Take it back and change it!”
He slammed it hard and the A4 paper was scattered everywhere.
Sherry was the first to bend down to pick it up and didn’t complain at all, nodding solidly in response, “Yes, Mr. Ryan, revise immediately.”
She nodded back to Evelin, turned and retreated quietly.
Evelin and Hopper, his secretary, exchanged glances.
Each other saw in each other’s eyes incomprehension, Ryan rarely such unprovoked tantrums, and today is obviously Sherry was unilaterally targeted, also count her can tolerate, this is another test of the company to her?
Hopper coughed lightly and kept giving Evelin a wink.
Evelin was annoyed, but still came forward, “Sir, the employee who was going to be sent to the Monterey branch to negotiate business was in a car accident, you see, who will take this position.”
Monterey is remote, the mountains are difficult to walk, a trip will take several months, people do not want to go.
Plus, the bosses of the partner companies there are very difficult to deal with.
“Let her go.”
Just as Sherry knocked on the door and came in, she was named by Ryan.
She was slightly stunned, then smiled and came forward and rearranged the statement she had just made, and really let her revise it into a few thin pages.
The efficiency of this work, but really …
Ryan stared at her, half-heartedly squeezing out, “Tomorrow, no, you leave tonight.”
Sherry didn’t even know where to go, so she just agreed, “Okay, Sir.”
After leaving Ryan’s office, Evelin, who has never gossiped about his colleagues at the company, became curious, “How did you get mad at Ryan?”
If Sherry really made a mistake, big deal to resign her, but prefer to put in front of the torture, Ryan’s mind is also quite difficult to guess.
Sherry’s smile was bitter, “I’m not sure.”
She couldn’t say.
I can only hope that Ryan’s anger will subside sooner rather than later.
Expecting Edward to help her explain, that’s not possible.
The family’s marriage contract was withdrawn, Ryan’s heart is not happy with Edward, take her to take the anger, is really very unfair to her, but Sherry herself was involved, can only dumb to eat.
Fortunately, she was not a stranger to the place of Monterey, and left that night by car, strolling leisurely on the bus overnight, and arrived in this small mountain town at 4:00 am.
But it’s a long way up the hill to the center of town.
Sherry had just gotten off the bus with a backpack when the black bus driver stepped forward and stopped her, “Little girl, how about going up the mountain? I have a fast and cheap car, one hundred and eighty.”
