Chapter 1387
The car turned around and went back where it came from.
Just when it was about to leave the street, Sherry spotted something outside the window.
“Stop.”
The driver pulled over immediately.
Sherry got out and headed to a nearby tree.
Shermaine noticed the car and the woman coming out of it. She lowered her cap and wanted to leave.
Sherry’s gaze turned cold. She strode forward, went in front of Shermaine, and stopped her from
leaving.
Shermaine frowned. She said, “Please move aside. You’re in my way.”
Sherry got a good look at her face. “Are you Shermaine?”
Surprised, Shermaine carefully sized Sherry up and spotted multiple branded items on her, plus her
bright and charming face. She staggered and asked cautiously, Who are you?”
((
Sherry curled her lips. “I am Sylvia’s friend, or you might know her as Mrs. Carter.”
Shermaine’s eyes flickered. She said, “I don’t know you,
and I don’t know any Mrs. Carter.”
“Don’t be nervous. I am not a violent person, and I don’t like beating someone else’s mistress up.
Anyway, you’re not even a mistress.”
Shermaine’s expression turned cold. “Please mind your words.”
Sherry scoffed. “If you want people to respect you, you need to respect yourself first, understand?”
Shermaine choked on her words. Anger took over and she bellowed, “Master Carter and I like each
other!”
Sherry was stunned. She was not surprised by the words but stunned by the blind confidence of the
girl.
A moment later, Sherry chuckled and said, “If Odell likes someone like you, then I bet he likes to eat
shit.”
Shermaine flushed, but she regained her composure and lifted her chin into a proud bearing. “I am not
like other women. Master Carter treats me differently. Don’t even think about trying to get on my nerves
with that poor choice of words.”
“I’m speaking the truth. I’ve seen a lot of women like you hundreds of years ago.” Sherry stepped
forward and sized Shermaine up from top to bottom. “Other than your little delicate face, nothing stands
out, especially that brain of yours.”
Shermaine choked, her face flushed.
In addition to the impatience and annoyance of not
seeing Odell for the past two days, anger drove her over the line. She yelled, “Your friend is the one
without a brain! She left the house just to make him mad?! Does she even think Master Carter will want
her back based on that?!”
Sherry narrowed her eyes. She suddenly felt an itch on her hands and had the urge to slap someone.
Her hands unconsciously curled.
Shermaine took Sherry’s silence as the first win of the battle. She scoffed and said, “Master Carter is
not just any man. He’s the owner of Carter Corporation. If that idiot woman uses this kind of cheap trick
to make him mad, he will only hate her more. Even if he doesn’t leave her now, he will in the future!”
“So, you think you’re the big star here? The wisest person in the room?”
“Of course! I like Master Carter, I understand him! I am there for him when he’s busy and I won’t cause
a scene like that stupid woman!”
Sherry chuckled.
Shermaine’s expression changed. “What are you laughing at?”
Sherry said, “I’ve seen idiots, but I have never seen idiots being so confident.”
Shermaine stared at her.
Sherry looked back and continued, “You said you know him. You understand how he is when he’s busy
and that he won’t cause a scene. That’s what every maid and servant in the Carters’ residence as well
as his secretary and assistant do; it’s basic requirements. Some of the maids are even more beautiful
than you are, so what gives you the idea that you are better than them?”
Shermaine argued, “I’m not the same! I’m not a maid. I’m… I’m…”
She choked.
Sherry grinned. “What? A temporary secretary? Even the maids are paid higher than you!”
