In the ward…

Stella finally gave up after she turned the ward upside down but still failed to find her phone.

It seemed like that wretched man brought her phone away with him.

A while later, Sherry returned with her head down and looked as if all her energy was siphoned out of her.

Stella saw her state and asked, “Sherry, did Daniel find you?”

Sherry nodded and sank herself in the sofa.

“What did he say?”

Sherry asked in a very pissed off tone, “I asked him when will he move away, guess what he said in return.”

Stella sat beside her, “What?”

“He said that he won’t be going away for the time being!” Sherry clenched her fists, “Damn it, he won’t be leaving! If I knew that beforehand, I wouldn’t have done…What I did that night. I thought that we won’t be meeting each other in the future anyway, and both of us are of age, so what’s wrong with us letting loose for a night! But! He’s not leaving!”

She let the sofa consume her even further while looking as if all hope was lost for her, “It was supposed to be a one-night stand, I thought this is business as usual for him, why would he suddenly act like he’s in love with me, and wanted to move into my house. What’s wrong with him?”

Stella put on a smile, patted her shoulder and said, “It’s alright, since he’s not leaving, you can wait and see what he’ll do next. Who knows, maybe he really is in love with you.”

Sherry chuckled sarcastically and replied, “Yeah, right. I can tell that he’s definitely a playboy, the girls that he love are probably in the double digits, and I sure don’t want to be lumped together with them.”

She was not wrong.

Stella did not try to advise her anymore, “I’ll be fine here, you can return to the workshop, don’t worry about me.”

Sherry immediately rejected her proposal, “No can do, your beloved Mr. Conrad instructed me to look…Accompany you. I’m here on a mission, you see. If I left, who knows that he won’t come after my skin for abandoning my mission?”

Stella was speechless.
