The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven)

Darryl told his connections not to hire Sherry, hoping she'd return to him if she failed to find a job. But things turned out very differently from his expectations.

Darryl asked, "I'm not asking for too much, am I? All you have to do is apologize, and I will remarry you..."

Sherry snapped, not wanting to listen to his blabber, "But I don't want to apologize! I didn't do anything wrong. I sent you the audio recording and security footage, too. You must've seen it, haven't you?"

Darryl said hesitantly, "Yes."

"Since you've seen it, you should know that I wasn't the one to blame. It was your friend who was at fault, yet you still want me to apologize. What does that tell you?"

Sherry was surprised at how cold she could be toward Darryl. She continued, "You don't care about the truth and justice; you care more about your friend's feelings. As for me, you don't care about how I feel."

Suddenly, Sherry felt like the love she had chased after was nothing but a joke.

She said, "Over the past few days, I came to a conclusion. I don't need my husband to love me, and I don't need other people to love me. But if even I don't love myself, then what meaning is there in my life?"
