Chapter 158:.
🍙 🍙 🍙 🍙 🍙
He finally learned, finally, that Madame Mclean was not the biological mother of Lucille Mclean and Darcy Mclean. Their mother had passed away in a psychiatric hospital 20 years ago. She had a hereditary psychosis.
But for the time being, for Lucilles’ sake, he recommended sending her to a psychiatric hospital. But Darcy was unwilling to do so; Lucille’s condition was only getting worse.
Darcy had no choice but to send her older sister to the hospital. Reggie Kelly had visited her several times. But each time, she would hug him and shout William Rowland’s name out loud. Finally, his patience had worn thin, so he was determined to find William. He wanted to know what kind of superpower this man had and why Lucille was so obsessed with him all the time. She even hurt herself for him. But before he did anything, William had unexpectedly brought Lucille home from the hospital….
“You know everything that happened next!” said Reggie.
Sherry gave him a surprised look and suddenly felt moved by the man. “How could Lucille do something like that to you?”
“Don’t look at me with a sorry face!” Reggie laughed, “Do you mind if I smoke a cigarette?”
“Uh! Just smoke!” She immediately replied, “Reggie, you love her, don’t you?”.
“I have no idea!” Reggie shook his head, “I have no idea what love is right now!”
“Okay, I think William is about to leave any minute, I’m going too!”
“I’ll walk you out!” She stood up.
She didn’t know how to comfort him at that moment. The two of them entered the elevator.
“Don’t pity me, I’ve been thinking of chasing you and then getting rid of you. I want William to spend the rest of his life living in regret and pain so I can seek revenge for Lucille.”

Sherry was amazed and then smiled, “But you didn’t do it, did you? You even saved my life, you’re a good guy! You never abused Miss Mclean. You knew Darcy was trying to slander you, but you have no complaints about it, that shows you’re a nice person! But ever since we met, your gaze was full of hate when you stared at me! I guess maybe you’re trying to hate me like you hate William.”
Reggie was slightly surprised, “How do you know, there’s hate in my gaze?”
“Yes! I was afraid of your stare at the time!” Sherry thought to herself and thought it was funny.
“It’s true, I really hated William at the time! But I didn’t know he was a responsible man! It’s all because Lucille was too extreme, this is what’s wrong with her! She has to take the blame herself!”
“I’m afraid Miss Mclean is just someone who is infatuated in love. When she falls in love with someone and does something extreme, she will start to regret it and live in terror all day long. This could twist her mind, it’s actually quite pitiful!”.
Reggie gave her a sidelong glance, “Sherry, you’re too kind!”. Meanwhile, they had reached the outside of the restaurant. “Sherry, you’re free to come back up!” Reggie smiled.
Suddenly, he saw a person quickly approaching them from the elevator. At a glance, he showed a smart but sly expression.
“Huh?” Sherry was taken aback.
“I didn’t chase you but can we hug?” Reggie raised his eyebrow at the sight of William walking toward them.
Sherry shook her head and laughed. He stepped forward, “I think I’ll be the one to give you a hug. I hope we’ll be friends. Also, thank you so much, Reggie!” She sympathized with this man from the bottom of her heart.
But William had already gone downstairs. He happened to witness the scene where Sherry took the initiative to hug Reggie while Reggie was giving him an extremely provocative look.
“Did she take the initiative to hug Reggie?” William was surprised, his attractive eyes were fully charged with anger and jealousy.
Reggie glanced at William. Then he leaned close to Sherry’s ear and whispered, “Sherry, you are a fine young lady. Although William is full of faults, he is passable. Appreciate him, I hope you have a happy life! Don’t give up your happiness because of Lucille! You deserve to be happy!”
“Thank you, I will be happy, Reggie, I wish you to be happy too!” Sherry patted him on the shoulder. She lifted her head and smiled at Reggie, “Goodbye!”.
Little did she know, her intimacy with Reggie had strongly aroused William’s jealousy.
He walked toward Sherry quickly and fiercely and then taunted her in an irritable tone, “Sherry, I was only gone for a little while and your loneliness is already killing you.”
Sherry heard that indifferent and insulting voice, turned around and saw William. Before she could react, she saw William’s face turn purplish, as if he was cheating on her.
“William…” He wanted to explain himself.
“Stop it! Get over here right now.” She could feel the pain as if her heart was frying with oil. Damn it, she couldn’t stand any man holding her! But her tone had provoked Sherry’s rebellion.
Instead of turning to William, she turned to Reggie and asked, “Reggie, will you give me a lift?”
Reggie was surprised and smiled, “Of course! Welcome.”
“Sherry!” cried William under his breath. He wanted to pull her, but his male self-esteem prevented him from approaching. He said casually, “Sherry, come here right now, I said right now!”.
Sherry turned around and looked into his ice cold eyes. She felt even angrier in her heart, What’s with that facial expression, No! Hell, no!
“Reggie, come on!” she said.
So she got into Reggie’s car. William clenched his fist tightly instead of stopping her from leaving.
He shouted angrily, “Sherry, you better get back here, or else…”
The only response he got was the car driving away as he inhaled a load of exhaustion gas from the car.
“Damn it!” William cursed under his breath.
He got into his own car and followed close behind. When he saw the car pull onto YX Road, he didn’t continue to follow.
Luckily, she wasn’t following him, but the waves of her heart were already churning furiously! When he saw that they were saying goodbye on the first floor, he entered the hallway one step ahead and waited for Sherry.
“Bye, Reggie!” Sherry got out of Reggie’s car. They were both standing by the car and Sherry said, “No matter what happens, just be happy! Also, take good care of yourself! See you around. Thanks.”
“Okay! Don’t even mention it, you’re Mr. Sutton’s daughter, so you’re considered my sister. You’re welcome, and remember to call me when you’re free!” Reggie raised her lips slightly.
“Okay, bye!” Sherry nodded her head. The two talked and laughed as they said goodbye.
Sherry walked toward the condo. It had been a long time since she had been here and she wanted to clean it up. She thought about where she was going to live. She entered the stairwell and raised her head, then saw a towering figure standing in the hallway.
“You’ve been very rude.” He was leaning against the wall opposite him.
His posture was kooky as he slightly bent his thin, long legs. His black eyes were abstruse as he looked at her, they were serene as they flickered with a strange glow.
“You, who lets you follow me?” Sherry frowned and pulled out her keys to unlock the door.
“You had the ovaries to hug another man, didn’t I tell you not to meet him again?” she noticed his gaze, he seemed to be nasty or just plain angry. Yes, he was quite angry and jealous.
“What do you mean hug?” Sherry frowned and didn’t want to hear what he was saying, “Reggie is the one who saved my life, without him, I could have died! Why are you making such a big deal about a hug? I just want to hug him, you can’t stop me! Go away!”
Without Reggie, I might have already passed away from the massive hemorrhage! She thought as she flattened her lips. She was also annoyed by William’s tone when he spoke to her. Sherry opened the door and ignored him. The moment she wanted to get in, he suddenly grabbed her. She didn’t have enough strength than him, damn it, she really ignored his presence! He was furious. Suddenly, he took a bigger step and entered her door before her with extreme speed.
Sherry flattened her mouth and followed him. She turned on the light, it had been a month since she had last been back. She glanced around the narrow living room, there was a thin layer of dust on the furniture. It looked like Celia Hickman hadn’t been here for a long time either.
He pressed her against the door as soon as he entered. He looked at her, his glowing eyebrows contained anger.
Sherry looked up at him, “What are you doing, are you angry? If you’re angry, get out of the house, no one’s forcing you to come here!”.
William didn’t want to move away. His imposing body figure was like a wall creating a shadow. “Sherry, why won’t you listen to me? I don’t like you being with him.” He sounded a little aggrieved, “When I asked you to come back, why didn’t you come back?”
“He’s my friend, Reggie and I are friends. You have no right to stop me from having friends. William, It’s my freedom!” she tried to speak calmly to him, but the words that came gushing out were off balance. “Besides, I’m just giving you a hug, didn’t you hug Lucille, didn’t you, didn’t you sleep with Lucille too? Compared to you two, mine was just a hug while you two were much more intimate, You can’t even stand that I only gave her a hug! Then, I can’t stand it with you either!”
William was perplexed, “Yes, you’re right.” But… Isn’t it the past? Didn’t they promise never to mention it again? Sherry instantly put on a look of circumstance.
She was furious: “Go away, I don’t want to see you anymore!”.
“…” William shuddered.
She was trying to get rid of him again, he was thinking what he had done wrong. What man could behave after witnessing his lady hugging another man? Sherry moved a step to the side and wanted to walk past him. But suddenly he reached out and pulled her into his arms with his strong arms.
He imprisoned her in his chest and didn’t leave her a single chance to escape. Sherry couldn’t fight and run away and she was too afraid to disturb her neighbors. She gritted her teeth and screamed, “William! Let go of me! You are unreasonable, I don’t want to talk to you.”
William pressed his torso against himself. His body was soft and smooth with a hint of fragrance. The aroma of the milk soap plus Sherry’s unique scent induced a warm current to pass through his abdomen, “Sherry, I will never embrace any other woman. My breast will always be yours. But please don’t hug another man, okay, can you promise me that?”
Sherry tried her best to calm down, but she couldn’t help herself and pushed him away, “Let go of me! I don’t believe you! You never stick to your words. Even when today’s situation happens again, I’d still hug Reggie anyway! Humph!” She said that on purpose since he had no right to keep her tied up.
“Haha… Sherry, are you telling me you’re jealous?” he laughed as he discovered that she seemed to be jealous. Suddenly, her mood improved.
She huffed, “William, I’m not jealous!”
William slipped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him until their abdomens touched, “Dear wife, I’m glad you’re jealous. But that’s all in the past, you can’t punish me by hugging others!”
Sherry was instantly stunned, she lifted her head to give him a look. His pretty eyebrows were right in front of her eyes. The edges and corners of his face were evident. But at this moment, his eyes were full of the power of a leopard while she was like his prey. She suddenly rushed up, “Let go of me! I’m not punishing you.”
“Sherry!” William’s handsome face gave a slight look of sadness. He was hurt and asked in a low voice, “In this case, are you trying to tell me that you really wanted to hug him? Would you die if you didn’t hug him?”
What do you mean, would I die if I didn’t hug him? Sherry flinched and her heart sank in a moment, why was everything that came out of her mouth so offensive? This time, she pushed him away in fury. He hadn’t expected her to have such strength.
“Sherry!” his tone was a little annoyed.
