Chapter 90 She's Quite Enthusiastic

The night breeze was piercing cold but Sherry didn't mind. Finally, she was able to relax a bit. After a while, she hailed a cab and returned home.

When she arrived home, she went straight into the bathroom, feeling drowsy. She drew up a cold bath and soaked her entire body in it.

By then, she'd almost figured out what had happened. Despite her disbelief, she had to accept that it was the truth.

Initially, she thought it was Steve who behind this entire thing. She didn't expect he would resort to such despicable means. She hated him so much.

Even though she wasn't that close with Steve, she still knew him pretty well. He would never do such a thing. As expected, someone had set him up.

When Jeremy arrived home, he noticed that only the lights in the bathroom were on—the living room was pitch black.

Sherry's bag was on the sofa while her shoes were haphazardly thrown on the floor.

"Sherry?" he raised his voice.

No one answered. The room was so quiet that it seemed like nobody was there.

All of a sudden, he became nervous. He turned on the lights and headed to the bathroom.

Sherry was sleeping in the bathtub, her eyes shut and her mouth trembling.

"What happened?" He rushed to her and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.

"What did you do again?" He was afraid that Sherry had taken things too far once again. He couldn't lose her!

Before Sherry could react, he took her out of the bathtub. He couldn't help but notice that the water in the tub was cold. Upon this realization, he was heartbroken and angry.

He picked up the bath towel next to him, wrapped her tightly with it, and carried her into the room.

"Oh but I'm not done yet!" Sherry croaked out.

"Are you trying to kill yourself over what you've done?" Jeremy threw her on the bed and covered her with a quilt.

When she put on the quilt, Sherry's body temperature rose again which brought her back to the uneasiness and discomfort she felt earlier.

As the drug was still in her body, Sherry struggled in the quilt. "I'm going to take a shower. Stop pressing me down!"

Ignoring her, Jeremy figured Sherry was still probably cold so he lay on the bed next to her.

As soon as his cold body pressed against hers, her body stiffened in an instant.

"Don't go. Do you know how worried I was when I came back just now? You were soaking yourself in cold water! You were totally frozen!" He held Sherry tightly and rubbed her arm with his big palms.

"I'm fine." Sherry tried to push him away but he was too strong for her—he didn't budge.

"You said you were fine. What happened? Why did you soak yourself in cold water?" he asked in a low voice as he looked into her eyes.

She felt like a thousand ants were tickling her all over her body.

"I just happened to fall asleep in the tub. I didn't do it on purpose." Sherry was so hot that she lifted the quilt but Jeremy covered her with it again.

"What's wro

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

an and other executives all of whom were well-dressed and powerful people in the industry.

Naturally, Chester had to attend as it was an important meeting. The other senior executives of the departments and Langston, the creative director, also had to be there.

However, oddly enough, Sherry was missing. Only Linda and two other staff from the advertising department were present.

Linda looked professional in her white suit and nude stilettos. Her hair was tied up and her make-up was exquisite.

When the discussion was over and the law department was already drawing up the draft of the contract, Linda made the final statement.

With an elegant smile on her face, she stood in front. "Hello, everyone. I'm Linda Mu from the advertising department of SZ Advertising Company. We have already reached an agreement on the cooperation. A draft of the contract is already being drawn up and I'm here to make the final statement."

Her presentation wasn't scheduled but she did it very well. She spoke melodiously and she kept smiling the entire time. She wisely picked out the key points of the meeting and brought up possible conflicts along with possible resolutions as well.

As Chester gazed at Linda, he couldn't help but find her dazzling—almost as much as he found Sherry dazzling.

"On behalf of SZ Advertising Company, I wish the cooperation to be successful and satisfactory. Thank you!" After that, she made a bow to everyone.

While Mr. Han didn't know why Linda was representing the advertising department instead of Sherry, he was still pleased as she did a good job. If Sherry were here, she would have done just as well.

"Mr. Gu, this young lady is so capable! There are so many talented people in your company!" he said to Chester.

Chester simply nodded in response, giving him a warm smile. With that, the entire room burst into a thunderous applause.

Linda returned to her seat and modestly accepted everyone's praises.
