Man, what's wrong with you?
Chapter 27 Sherry Belongs to Him
When they arrived downstairs, Chester's car was already parked in front of the building, and Beisy was waiting by the back seat, the door already opened for Sherry. Once Sherry was seated inside, Beisy walked around to the front seat and sat on the passenger seat.
"Hello, Mr. Gu," greeted Sherry.
Chester smiled and nodded at her before he started the car. Once the car was cruising steadily, he glanced at her through the rear-view mirror and said,
"Hello to you too. How did your work go this morning?"
"It went great, and my colleagues are nice and enthusiastic. I also managed to look through the contract and the materials," Sherry said with a happy smile, as she was quite satisfied with how her day went.
He nodded at her answer. He was a sharp contrast to Sherry's stiff posture because while she was sitting properly with her back ramrod straight, Chester was sitting lazily on his seat. Her figure was on vivid display by the stark white suit that she wore.
"If you encounter any problem, don't be afraid to ask Beisy."
From her seat in front, Beisy was listening quietly to their conversation, and she was a little surprised to hear how much her boss seemed to care about Sherry. Since she was well aware of what kind of person her boss was, it was a big surprise to see him treat Sherry this way, and in front of her too!
"Thank you," Sherry answered shyly.
Before long, the car stopped in front of a grand hotel, and Sherry couldn't help but admire the view. She was a little bit confused because it was supposed to be a simple lunch, so was this high-end place really necessary?
The way he did things was starkly different from what she was used to.
They entered the hotel, where an usher led them to their reserved room, and when the door was pushed open, Sherry stopped in her tracks, stunned.
In the room, several waitresses in cheongsam were serving tea with pleasant smiles on their faces, and the round table in the middle of the room was already occupied by at least a dozen other people!
The men were all well-dressed in suits and accessories, while the women were painted with heavy make-up and dressed in decent dresses. Their clothes and postures screamed elegance and luxury.
Sherry looked around the room awkwardly, but she found the last person she wanted to see.
Just a few feet from her sat Jeremy, his simple white shirt fitted over his wide shoulders, and his eyes trained in her intensely.
He seemed to have drunk a little wine, as she noticed that his face was slightly red. His hair looked a little longer, but it just made him look more handsome.
'Why was he here?' Sherry's mind was running in circles, distressed and she was hoping to be anywhere but there.
It was not a simple lunch, as she had originally thought. She couldn't believe that Chester had taken her here to have lunch with his business partners!
"You are always late, Chester! You'd better drink!" An old man stood up and walked up to Chester, a glass of wine in his hand.
"Sorry, I'm late." Despite his words, there was no trace of apology in Chester's voice.
"Hey, who is this beautiful lady?" At this statement, the rest of the guests shifted their attention to Sherry, and in an instant, they seemed to have forgotten all about Chester's tardiness.
