Shortly after the assistant dragged out the suitcase, William came back.

Sherry stood up immediately. “Hello, Mr... Mr. William.”

William smiled at her. “Sorry for keeping you waiting.”

“It’s alright. I came here quite late. Your assistant has just taken the jewelry out.”

William checked the time and put down the documents. “It’s almost noon. Let’s have lunch first.”

Sherry said, “Okay.”

Sherry had met William several times in City N. He was gentle and easygoing. After chatting with him a bit, Sherry relaxed a lot.

They went downstairs, and his assistant walked up to open the door for them.

After sitting in the car, Sherry wound down the car window. Before exhaling, she saw familiar eyes from the rearview mirror.

She was speechless.

Inwardly, she cried for help.

William got in the car from the other side. Seeing that, he said, “This is Daniel. You have met him before.”

Sherry nodded stiffly. “Yes. We know each other.”

The door was closed. William said to Daniel, “Let’s go.”

Daniel hummed and started the engine.

The restaurant was a bit far away from the company. It took them half an hour to arrive.

After getting down, Daniel gave the car key to an usher for parking the car.

Sherry followed William, having an intense migraine.

She wondered if God wanted to test her willpower.

It was... just torture.

Arriving at the private room, Daniel told a waiter, “Please serve the dishes.”

The waiter answered and left.

Sherry was standing at the door uneasily. William said, “Please take a seat, Ms. Perry.”
