I was surprised.
I believed there were some problems with Carter Family, but I didn’t expect it to be so bad.
Sherry took my hand and said, “it’s OK. It’s not a big deal.”
Sherry’s house was big. Now there were a lot less furniture and servants in the house, so it looked cold.
But Mary was still there.
“Grandma, in fact, I can sell the house you gave me and put the money…”
“No. Every company has problems. Their report is too exaggerated.”
I was interrupted by Sherry.
“But…”
I was a little hesitant.
Was it exaggerated?
If I didn’t come to Sherry’s house, I might think so.
But now I saw that there were fewer servants and less antiques in this house. It looked cold. I had long guessed that the whole thing was not like what Sherry said.
“Nothing.”
Sherry said nothing else.
I guessed she knew about Carter Family. She didn’t know what to say.
I thought about Molly and Sean and asked, “if Molly and Sean get married, will it be better?”
I thought if I didn’t have a good relationship with Molly, Sherry might be more upset.
Sherry sighed, “their love is hard won. Molly scored for herself in the stupidest way, but she hurt herself.”
I knew what she was talking about.
“But Sean’s grandfather agreed before.”
“Now James regrets. Molly did those things, so I’m embarrassed to beg him.”
Sherry’s face was full of embarrassment.
I knew what she was talking about.
I was sorry to see her like this.
If I hadn’t exposed Molly’s plagiarism, maybe it wouldn’t have happened.
I was silent, and Sherry patted my hand.”You don’t have to think about it. It has nothing to do with anyone. Carter Family and I are both old. There are problems that have been around for many years but are only now exposed.”
I was in Sherry’s house that day. It was not that I comforted Sherry, it was that Sherry comforted me.
She told me again and again in a firm voice not to sell the house in York No. 1.
I had to agree for the time being.
But if Carter Family really had difficulties, I thought I would sell this house.
–
After that, my life was still the same.
I took on a small western restaurant project because of my hard work.
This western restaurant was in the downtown area. On the first day, I measured the size and prepared the design.
I was busy all day and came out of the restaurant at night.
When I thought about where to eat, I looked up and saw a familiar figure.
Sean.
We hadn’t seen each other for days. He was still handsome. He was wearing a sapphire blue handmade shirt and slacks. There was a woman standing with him.
They were going to a jewelry store.
That shop sold diamonds, mainly wedding rings.
Although I only saw that figure, I was very sure that this woman was not Molly.
Because her hair was as black and shiny as seaweed, and Molly’s hair was dyed and ironed all the year round.
What’s more, according to the last time Molly was pregnant.
Molly was three months pregnant now. She could never wear high heels.
She would not be so slim.
I had decided to leave him but I followed them.
I went to the door of the jewelry store and took a sneak look.
All the shop assistants were around Sean and the woman.
I saw a shop assistant take out a big diamond ring and show it to them. The woman shook her head. The shop assistant changed another one, and the woman shook her head again. Then the shop assistant changed it again.
I watched it for about five minutes.
Shop assistants constantly took out boxes of diamond rings from a house in the back. The woman was not satisfied.
Sean was standing next to her. There was no impatience in his expression.
He was there for her.
I felt a little sad.
I thought the woman was familiar.
Because this woman had a red mole on her eyebrow.
I thought this mole was very familiar.
They picked for a while and didn’t seem satisfied. They seemed to be leaving. I was so scared that I ran away.
I went into an ordinary snack bar and ordered a bowl of wonton.
I thought of a scene when I was eating.
“It’s her!”
I suddenly remembered who the woman next to Sean was!
This was a thing that had been almost forgotten by me.
About two or three years after I saved Sean.
Once the orphanage organized the eldest children to visit various colleges and universities in York.
I was one of them.
It was September 1st. It was the beginning of school.
Maybe coincidentally, when we got to the gate of York’s best women’s college, I saw Sean at a glance.
We hadn’t seen each other for years. I was thrilled.
I had been watching him so I forgot to follow my classmates.
The teacher noticed me and called me. Seeing that I was distracted, she asked me, “why are you looking at so seriously?”
I was nervous and embarrassed to say I was watching Sean.
I noticed the girl next to Sean.
She looked about my age. She had black hair on her shoulders. She has a red mole in the center of her brow.
I quickly pointed to the girl and said,” she’s so young. Why can she go to university?”
The teacher looked at her and smiled,” she is the only girl in the junior class of our school.”
“Junior class?”
I asked with my head askew.
The teacher wanted to take me away. Although I was reluctant, I could only follow her.
On the way, the teacher told me about the junior class.
In short, it was a special class for gifted children.
That was to say, that girl was a genius.
At that time, I naively thought that the girl might be Sean’s girlfriend.
Sean was excellent. He should have a gifted girlfriend.
But I hadn’t seen this girl for a long time. Sean didn’t even mention her. Why did she show up now?
And Sean seemed to be picking the diamond ring with her.
Was she going to marry Sean?
After I finished eating, I adjusted my mood and decided to go back to the company to continue my work.
I was about to take a taxi but saw Sean’s car coming slowly.
My first reaction was that Sean was in the car. I wanted to hide first!
I turned and directly hit a strong chest.
