Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Sherry was shocked when she noticed Daniel and Emmett exiting the car one after another in front of

the restaurant.

What was this situation?

"Hi Sherry," Emmett said with a smile as he spotted her.

"Daniel, let's go grab something," Sherry said while she faked a grin and waved at Emmett.

Daniel nodded and said to Emmett, "Please go up first."

"Okay."

"What are you up to?" Sherry pulled Daniel over and inquired after Emmett was gone.

"What?" Daniel was perplexed.

"What are you doing? What prompted you to invite him?"

"When you called, I was with him. Didn't you state that others will be attending Stella's birthday dinner?

As a result, I invited him. Aren't you friends with Emmett?" Daniel asked.

"Of course we're friends, but you should know that Emmett liked Stella, and Mr. Conrad will be here

tonight, won't it be awkward?" Sherry gritted her teeth.

"You didn't mention Mr. Conrad would be coming tonight," Daniel was taken aback.

Sherry was at a loss for words.

She believed there was a communication stumbling block between her and Daniel.

"It’s not a big deal, everything is in the past, Mr. Conrad and Stella is a couple now, and Emmett had let

go of her," Daniel considered for a moment.

"You don't understand," Sherry said, taking a deep breath.

A Rolls Royce pulled in front of her as she grabbed for her phone to alert Stella of what was about to

happen.

When she saw Clarence got out of the car, she hurriedly hid her phone behind her back, perhaps out of

guilt.

Clarence cast a glance at her, and she wasn't sure whether he sensed anything.

Stella exited the car from the opposite side at the same moment.

Sherry tried to signal with her blinking, but Stella couldn't get her. She was confused by Sherry’s action.

After a while, she questioned, "What?"

Clarence turned at this point and blocked in front of Stella, “There’s something wrong with her eyes.”

Stella stroked the back of her neck, perplexed.

Sherry gave up at this moment and let fate take its course.

The scenario upstairs was no better.

Winnie was the first to come because she had just gotten off from work nearby.

As she was taking her seat and ready to text Sherry, the door was pushed open.

It was Channing.

In an instant, silence covered the whole room.

Winnie was six years his senior. Even though his words hurt her previously, but it was long ago, she

had forgiven him and initiated the greeting. “Did you come straight from school?”

Channing gently nodded.

“I just got here, and your sister is on her way.” Winnie went on.

“Okay,” Channing responded but stayed silent.

Winnie was exhausted from work and lacked the energy to strike up a conversation.

She then picked up her cup to get some tea, but Channing’s hand grabbed the teapot ahead of her and

poured the tea into her cup.

“Thank you,” she was taken aback.

“You are most welcome.” And he sat next to her.

She was surprised and a little uncomfortable when Channing chose the seat next to her; she had

expected him to choose somewhere else.

“I'm sorry for what I said last time,” Channing began as Winnie was looking for an excuse to leave.

“It was so long ago that I can hardly remember it.” Winnie gave a cheerful smile.

“You haven't forgotten.”

Winnie was perplexed.

“You wouldn't have guessed what I was talking about the minute I apologized,” Channing explained.

Winnie came to a halt. “Are you trying to set me up, kid?” she sighed.

Channing grimaced when he heard the word "kid." After a few seconds, he added, "I sincerely

apologize."

“All right, I sincerely forgive you,” Winnie stated.

Hearing that, Channing wanted to ask something but stopped.

Winnie drank her tea and asked, "You haven't informed your sister about it?"

“What are you talking about?”

“That you signed a contract with JH Film Company.”

“Not yet,” he said with a low voice.

“I guess so. This is your business, so I didn’t meddle in it. Find an opportunity to inform her.” She stated

this while nodding.

“Didn't you say you had forgiven me?” Channing inquired.

“Yes,” Winnie said.

Their conversation was interrupted when the door was pushed open once again, it was Emmett.

Winnie encountered him once before New Year's over hot pot at Stella's; they were no stranger. They

exchanged simple greetings and she had finally found an excuse to go to the restroom.

As she washed her hands in front of the sink, Winnie giggled thinking about something.

That was an excellent lesson for him to learn while he was still young.

Females, despite claims to the contrary, do not easily let go of grudges and they like to mention the

past too.

After washing her hands, she was ready to go and looked into the mirror as she dried her hands but

realized she was smiling.

What was so amusing about mocking a kid who was under twenty?

She quickly stopped smiling, shifted her attitude and returned to the room.

At the same time…

Stella was shocked to see Emmett in the room and immediately looked at Sherry, who was still blinking

at her.

This was the reason for her strange action just now.

She welcomed Emmett right away and greeted him with a smile.

Since he was here, she tried not to make things awkward.

Some, though, were of a different mind.

“Mr. Carter appears to be free these days.” Clarence started.

“I'm alright, I suppose not as busy as Mr. Conrad.” Emmett cracked a grin.

“Do you think you should put forth more effort at work?”

Seeing their rivalry actions, Stella quickly let out a cough and turned to Sherry, "Have you ordered?"

“Not yet, shall I do it now?” Sherry acted quickly.

“That's okay, I'll go. Let's go," she said, pulling Clarence along with her.

Clarence raised his brows and turned to look at Emmett before taking off.

Emmett grinned but said nothing.

Something seemed easy to utter but seeing Stella with Clarence together still hurt him.
