The President’s Stubborn Love

David’s hand clutched the handle of his chair for a long moment before he suddenly let out a loud laugh, “For the sake of my baby girl, money is certainly not a problem, but I need to know, how will you keep your word? What if you use this trick to blackmail us again and again?”

Sherry looked at him faintly.

Clearly replied, “Mr. Shen this is not correct, not extortion, this is a fair deal, you spend money to buy your daughter’s recording only, as to whether I keep my word on this matter, can only look at your daughter’s performance, she repeatedly stepped on my dignity, insult me, but also to use various means against me … ”

“A rabbit will bite when pushed.”

Sherry tugged lightly at the corner of her mouth, “Right?”

Weighing the two sides, David just had to agree to pay up.

But Sherry’s back was getting wet by the time she finished those words.

Her ankles had lost their strength and if Aaron hadn’t helped her from behind just as her legs were about to give out, Sherry would have taken a nasty tumble in front of the Garcia Family.

She was distracted.

Straightening up, she glanced over at Aaron, whose biggest fear when she said those words earlier was that he would break her down in the middle of it.

Fortunately, he did not do that.

Instead, it helped Sherry at this time.

The moment the two eyes met, Sherry immediately lowered her head and resumed her usual obsequious look.

Aaron snorted, “Alright, I have to talk to Mr. Shen about something, go wait in the car.”

He let go of his hand, as if shaking Sherry off.

But in reality, it was pushing her gently towards the door.

Sherry hurried away and it was only when she got into Aaron’s car that her pounding heart slowly fell to the ground.

And this time, with a few chills on his face, David gazed at Aaron, “I heard from Nola that you were originally going to resign her.”

Aaron raised his eyebrows slightly.

“That was indeed the intention before.”

He laughed without the slightest hint of amusement, “But it’s kind of fun to keep someone like that around, isn’t it?”

David gritted his teeth, too angry to laugh.

Instantly getting up, “It was for your sake that I granted her such an absurd request, and it seems that it would be better to transfer it to a lawyer! That kind of recording simply cannot be used as an exhibit in court.”

This is something that Aaron is well aware of.

The chill on his icy face intensified.

Looking at David’s contradictory face, he slowly said, “Is Mr. Garcia really going to gamble with his daughter’s reputation?”

David’s footsteps jerked to a halt with that cry.

There he saw Aaron sitting there, his eyes deep and cold, a man who was not a lamb to be slaughtered, either in his aura or in his control.

No wonder, he is seen as a thorn in Alex’s side.

The more difficult it is to control, the more scandalous it is.

David’s deep, calculating eyes narrowed, “I asked you to bring that woman here today to help Nola with this matter, not to hear you defend an outsider.”NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

His tone was extremely deep.

If Aaron had dared to speak up for Sherry, it would not have been such a simple situation to end.

At the end of the sentence, Aaron sat up straighter without prejudice, “I’m an outsider to the Garcia Family too, will there come a time when the Garcia Family will use this same kind of bullying against me?”

“Whoever I bring in today, I will not speak up in defense, that is your business.”

A word about you made David’s pupils vibrate.

Aaron laughed lightly and got up, “And I’m just being nice, Sherry’s the kind of person who will do anything when pushed, on balance, it’s better to keep the Garcia Family’s reputation intact, and if you go back on your word, those things can really come out.”

David clenched his fists so hard that he was close to lashing out on the spot.

“You are not in a position to judge the Garcia Family’s family affairs!”

Aaron stood there and spoke in a slow voice, “You think, I’m quite willing to interfere?”

He took a step-in front of David with full oppression and a pair of eyes that were even colder, “President.”

Hearing the change in the way he addressed himself, David was just about to raise his temper when he was shattered by the words that followed.

“Gregorio and Nola have both met with Alex individually, and the Garcia Group has taken over two development rights for the Henry Family subsidiary… is it too greedy of you to want to offend both sides of the Garcia Family?”

“…”

David expected him to find out one day, but not so soon, nor did he expect that he would tear his face off in front of him.

Surely a poorly bred wolf.

“I am not blind, let alone deaf, and to keep the peace at hand, Mr. Garcia would be wise to keep his men’s movements clean as well, it’s so ugly to be held hostage.”

He didn’t say a word about Sherry blackmailing the Garcia Family.

But every word seemed like a defense of her.

Nola leaned over the door and listened to the sounds from downstairs until Aaron strutted away, her beautiful eyes almost blazing with fire.

And Gregorio took down the bugging device upstairs and ran downstairs in a huff.

“Dad, what’s Aaron’s attitude? How dare he contradict you! He’s so tired of living, he’s forgotten how he used to beg our family to help him.”

“Shut up.”

David backhanded Gregorio and slapped him hard across the face.

He picked up the wooden ornaments hanging on the wall and slammed them down on him.

“If you two hadn’t been so stupid as to let someone catch you in the act, would that boy have dared to climb on my head?”

Gregorio was hit a few times, grunting and gritting his teeth, not daring to fight back, “Dad, I was wrong, I’m sorry, I was wrong.”

“On your knees!”

David let out a bellow of anger, followed by one blow after another, slamming Gregorio hard on the back, “I’ll beat you to death, you stupid bastard.”

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Sherry could hear the Garcia Family arguing as she sat in the car.

A trace of bewilderment swept across her eyes; this is what is called a gentry, shiny on the outside but rotten and disgusting on the inside long ago.

Aaron, on the other hand, sat with a stern, cold look on his face, as if he had seen it all before.

“Mr. Swift, a ride back to the office now?”

Sherry asked in a low voice.

“Go to the Dynasty Winery.”

The Dynasty Winery, a subsidiary of Aaron’s in addition to the Night Group, is a locally owned and operated wine estate with a small footprint, but a great location by the mountains and water.

Especially when standing on the first floor terrace, you can see the starry sky.

Aaron comes here every time he is tired.

He left Sherry alone in the car and took his own steps inside, saying nothing. Sherry watched his back from where she was, always feeling a touch of loneliness.

“It turns out that no matter what height one stands on, one can feel lonely.”

Even Aaron has things that make him feel powerless and frustrated.

That evening, Sherry received a transfer from the Garcia Family, a million dollars, no less.

She looked at the words on her phone screen and took a deep breath; at least the money would be enough to pay for her mother’s surgery.

Sherry clutched her phone and slowly looked up to see a shooting star pass across the sky, followed by another …

A diffuse light followed, leaping from one corner of the sky, to the other, with a beauty so fleeting that she dared not blink.
