Sherly ordered food for the rest of her people before she, Maria, Kim, and Alex went out to have lunch by themselves.As Sherly and her three trusted aides, Maria, Kim, and Alex, entered the bustling restaurant, they scanned the room for an available private space. They wanted to have something more private, so they're trying to find a place where there's a room partition. Then, in the middle of their conversation, not far from where they were, Sherly's sharp eyes caught sight of a familiar face in the middle of the crowd.Sherly knew that he saw her, and all he could give him was a subtle nod in acknowledgment.

Chapter 32: She Felt Stupid
"Boss."Sherly raised her head and met Kim's eyes. "Hmm?""There's someone lurking outside. I don't know who it was, but I think I saw that person once with you."Sherly raised her eyebrow and took the tablet from Kim's hand. Indeed, she saw a familiar face. Sherly sighed. She gave the tablet back to Kim and said, "Don't worry, I'll deal with this. You guys don't need to be alarmists as he is harmless and on our side."Kim did not ask about it, as he nodded his head and left. Well, he is indeed not harmless because they aren't his target. Besides, he has always been by George's side. Sherly stepped out of the building, her eyes narrowing in curiosity as she spotted Lary fumbling around near their office. Sensing something amiss, she approached cautiously, her senses on high alert."Lary?" Sherly called out, her voice cutting through the air and causing Lary to startle, nearly dropping whatever he was holding.He's been like this for a while, so Sherly knew why he was startled. Howeve

After a few rings, her friend answered, and Sherly wasted no time in pouring out her regrets.She really wanted someone to talk to right now. If she can't talk to her best friend right now, she really doesn't know what will happen to her. Her mind's full of thoughts that she can't sort out."Hello?""Sol." Sherly's voice quivered with emotion."Hmm? Sherly, what's wrong? Did something happen to you?" Solace asked with worries in her voice. "I feel so stupid, Sol." She sobbed and added, "I feel so stupid for not listening to George's explanation. I should have called him and talked it out; I should have listened to him as he coaxed me, as he made things better for us, but I let everything spiral out of control instead. And now, I've stopped contacting him altogether."Solace listened intently, her

Chapter 36: Address Location
After Sherly told them that she'd go and meet them before she left, all of her friends teased her. It is either that she should come back with him or that she should have his child after that, and that they should have given them a wedding invitation. Everything may have looked teasing, but Sherly knew that there's something hidden in it. It was all their wish, and if she had to sum it all up, they all just wanted her to be happy. As the taxi wove its way through the city streets, the driver looked at the rearview mirror and asked Sherly, "Do you mind me opening the radio? It's been a habit of mine to listen to some news while driving, so if it is okay with you, can I open my radio?"Sherly looked up and smiled. "Yes, you can." "Thank you," the driver said as the driver idly flicked on the radio, filling the car with the sound of the news bulletin. Sherly listened attentively as the reporter's voice filled the vehicle, detailing the recent events in the ongoing mafia conflict."The

Chapter 37: Clearing the Misunderstanding [ Part 1 ]
Sherly felt heavy in her heart as she stood in front of George's ward. She really doesn't know what she should do at times like this. She stopped for a moment, took a deep breath, and released it slowly. She closed her eyes before opening it again and holding the door.As Sherly gently pushed open the door to George's hospital room, her heart sank at the sight that greeted her. It was like her heart was getting gripped tightly and was about to burst in pain. George sat in silence by the window, his gaze fixed on the world outside, devoid of any emotion. Sherly felt a pang of pain in her heart as she took in his distant expression.What happened to him? How did he become like this? Did something happen before they lost contact? Or was it because of her?

Chapter 38: Clearing the Misunderstanding [ Part 2 ]
In the hospital room, George's voice was filled with a mixture of remorse and urgency as he began to explain himself to Sherly. He watched her closely, hoping to convey the sincerity of his words through his eyes."Sherly, I need you to understand." The grip he had on Sherly's hand tightened a little as he assured her that everything was really real and that everything he wanted to say, he wanted her to believe. Meanwhile, Sherly only rubbed her hand against his hand and listened to him. George then took a deep breath before continuing. "That day, the person I was with was Andrea," George confessed, his voice laced with regret. "We had an arrangement, a contract of sorts, that if we didn't find anyone else, we would marry each other. But things changed, Sherly. We both found someone we truly cared about. That is the reason why we decided to meet each other after years of stablishing our contract."Sherly listened intently, her heart heavy with the weight of George's revelation. Who wo

Chapter 39: Her Principles
As George wanted to talk about a certain subject, he did so cautiously, mindful of Sherly's feelings and the delicate nature of their conversation. He wanted to know this, but he didn't want Sherly to feel offended."Babe," he called her and began to tentatively say, "I couldn't help but wonder... why didn't you investigate what happened to me? I mean, I know you have the means to find out, but you didn't. Why?" His words were careful, laced with a hint of apprehension, as he feared Sherly might misunderstand his question or take offense.As George questioned Sherly about why she didn't investigate what happened to him, despite having the power to do so, Sherly paused, reflecting on her principles. If it were the others asking her like this, Sherly would feel offended, but it was George. Also, with George's words, she could feel how cautious he is. Sherly could feel that he didn't want her to feel offended. However, this matter is easy to answer, and since it's George who's asking h

She could only tell Lary about it before leaving.As soon as Sherly went back to her office, she delved into her investigation, her brow furrowed in deep concentration. She navigated through encrypted files and shadowy networks, her fingers flying across the keyboard with practiced precision.
