A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 90 Samuel was Missing

“So will you be so impatient again? You should give me a call first.” William said with a threat in his tone. Sherry bit her lower lip and didn’t answer him. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

He frowned slightly and almost ordered, “Answer me!”

“I know!” she compromised. It was still terrifying memory for her. “But I didn’t see you when I got out. I thought you left!”

He suddenly blocked her lips with a kiss and held her off the ground by her waist.

“Ah!” she shouted.

He walked quickly to his car. “You naughty girl. All right, I won’t force you to dress the way you don’t get used to!”

What a horrible experience! He can’t imagine what would happen if she really met a rascal and gross man. He put her into the car next to him. She lowered her head in shyness. He behaved in a bossy manner but she felt warm. He saved her day and even her life!

After fastening her seat belt, he bent down and kissed her deeply, devotedly and passionately. He put everything including emotion, love, guilt, pity and promise into such a kiss.

She was almost suffocated by his kiss.

After a long while, he raised his head and his eyes were bright as if they were shining.

Watching her upturned long eyelashes and the great passion in her eyes, he couldn’t feel more satisfied than ever—

A small helicopter landed on a private island located at Miami. This hundreds of meters wide field was particularly built as a parking apron.

There was a white building which was a specially desighed huge villa. At the moment, gate of the villa opened automatically, letting the helicopter entered its runway slowly.

A group of bodyguards in black walked out of the villa respectfully. They tacitly stood in two rows, with a man in white informal suits walking in the middle. The man was dashing in white, and his face was delicate and gorgeous with fine features. He wore a light smile and a hint of warmness flashed in his eyes when he saw the helicopter.

The helicopter’s huge fan blades stopped working as the engine was cut off. The gale died down.

On the helicopter, William was in a black wind coat. As the door opened, he moved his straight long legs and stepped out of the helicopter. Seeing the man in white suit, he smiled, “It’s been a long time since we met last time! How’s everything going, Alexis?”

“Welcome back, Mr Rowland!” the safeguards said in chorus.

Alexis Huston smiled at them. He swept the men standing at sides with eyes while striding towards William, “Will, I heard you lost your job?”

“I am, if you say so!” nobody could ignore the arrogance and pride revealed in his eyes, “I dare say you must be the most cheerful one when heard the news.”

“I guess you are right!” Alexis joked, but the profoundness in his narrow eyes made him look stern. “My dear Mr Rowland, how long will you gonna stay this time?”

“Three days!” William smiled.

Alexis narrowed his eyes, with a glint of light flashing in his deep eyes.

William went abroad, so Sherry lived alone in the apartment. But before he left he told his chauffeur to pick up Samuel to Sherry’s house every day. In the past two days, Sherry and Samuel spent a very happy time together.

She tried her best to make up Samuel for the loss of motherly love. She knew she owned her child too much in the past five years, which can’t make up all at once, so she doted on him every second they spent together.

Every night, she read stories for Samuel until he fell asleep. Before she went to sleep she always made sure that Samuel had had quilt covered on him. Both of them had natural smiling lips. If observed carefully, they had a lot of similarities in appearance.

Daniel lived in school. At night, she always missed him when seeing Samuel, and thought it would be wonderful if Daniel stayed with them.

Sherry made an appointment with Celia for lunch on Thursday noon.

She had planned to go to work, but for some reason Leon said he can’t let her continue to work at the restaurant, partly because William threatened that he would bankrupt Leon’s restaurant, which made Leon feel more afraid to let Sherry work there.

“Sherry, why did you resign your job at the restaurant? My brother treated you bad?” Celia asked when she sat down.

“No!” Sherry felt helpless. “It’s just that I’m not allowed to work!”

As she was hesitating how to tell her the story about Samuel, she heard Celia ask anxiously, “What happened?”

“Celia, my child……”

“What happened to Daniel?” Celia got a little nervous.

“It’s not about Daniel!” Sherry smiled, “It’s the child I gave birth to five years ago, my own son!”

“And?” Celia was confused.

“I found him!” she wore a content smile, “I found my own son!”

“Really?!” Celia nearly jumped high with thrill, and she yelled, “Where is him? Where is him? I can’t wait to see him. You really found your child? How nice!”

“Celia, keep your voice down!” Sherry felt embarrassed when she noticed that everyone in the restaurant looked towards their direction.

When Celia turned around and found people were looking at them, she spat out her tongue and lowered her voice, “So where is he? Does he look like you?”

Sherry shook her head. “No, not very much, but he is shy and adorable, as adorable as Daniel!”

“That also means you found your child’s father?” Celia suddenly raised her voice but she immediately realized it and lowered it down.

“Mmm!” Sherry nodded.

“Who is he? Sounds very mysterious, tell me who is he?”

“You can’t reveal it to others!” Sherry didn’t know how to speak out the truth.

“Speak it out confidently. I won’t tell others. My lips are sealed!”

“Okay!” Sherry nodded and said, “It’s William Rowland!”

“Oh my goodness!” Celia cried out, “How?”

“Yes, it’s him!” Sherry sighed, “That man wearing a fox mask is William Rowland!”

At the moment Celia was angry, “So he must recognize you at the beginning. But how did you find out the truth?”

Sherry told the whole story to her, as for ambiguous part she omitted and just roughly mentioned. When Sherry finished, Celia suddenly cursed, “Damn it. What a bully. That man was damned bad! Sherry, you are a silly girl. You can’t let him bully you like that. Let’s go. I’ll help you to teach him a good lesson!”

“Ugh!” Sherry can’t help laughing out when she saw Celia was excited with rage. “Celia, it’s enough for me to find my child, and I don’t want to bother about other things! Besides, our relationship was based on a deal and the child is the result of the deal, so he should keep the child! And now he is not the president of the Rowland Group!”

“But he lied to you, teased you and fooled you around, how could you forgive him so easily?” Celia can’t understand her. “Sherry, you have to know that you’re not alone. You have me, and I can help you. I must break that man’s head!”

“Celia, calm down!” Sherry was grateful that Celia cared her so much. But her purpose for living was to find her child. Now she did it, so why bother about the things that had passed? “I really appreciate it that you care me so much and would like to defend me, but I have his words that I can see my child and stay with my child. Isn’t it the happy ending that I want?”

“I’m not excited. I’m furious, very furious, very very furious, do you understand? You are silly. You still think he’s a good man even he treated you bad before, and you’re happy to take it. Let me tell you, a

horrible man like him should be fed with fists. How about I find a few men to beat him up? Fuck him! I didn’t expect William Rowland was so cruel and sick! Making fun in sexual abuse? Gross bastard!”

“In fact, he……he is not as bad as you think!” Sherry weakly argued for William Rowland, “He gave me back my child, so I don’t think he’s that bad!”

“My silly darling, do you have rocks in your head?” Celia sighed, “He made fool of you, but you still speak good for him!”

“But it’s the fact……”

“Ah! The ring on your hand?” Celia found the shining diamond ring, “Who gave it to you?”

“Oh!” blushing instantly, Sherry regretted not taking it off earlier. William made her promised that she wouldn’t take it off when he left. “It’s, it’s from William!”

Celia rolled her eyes as if searching an answer in her mind, “He proposed to you?”

“No! We won’t get married!” she said quietly and prepared her mind for everything. If he hadn’t promised a lifetime love, she would have been struggled in her mind. But he did, and she suddenly felt overwhelmed.

“Why?” Celia cried loudly. Sherry lowered her head, and Celia continued, “Well, he gave you the ring. It means that he has the intention. And you also have your own child, so everything is possible. However, you’re so stupid to be his captive easily……”

Sherry went pale and then red in her face.

Celia added, “I should see him sometime and bring fair back to you! But now my first thing is to see our son. Is he cute, like Daniel?”

“Yes, he is!” when talking about her child, she instantly forgot her shyness. “He’s in kindergarten now. You may come in the evening, when the chauffeur will bring him my home!”

“Right!” Celia was looking forward and thrilled.

In the evening, the chauffeur called and said that Samuel was missing when he came to pick up him, and Samuel’s teacher said he had been picked up by his family!

“What family? Is it his daddy?” Sherry asked nervously.

“No, it’s the child’s grandfather! The teacher said Samuel had changed kindergarten and she brought you a message from old Mr. Rowland that you’d better stay away from Samuel, or you won’t be able to see him forever!”

“What?” she was shocked! “Samuel is my child. I have rights to see my child, the law gives the right to do so.”

“Master said he’s the law!”

“……” she was shocked again.

In the brilliant sunlight, a black limousine surrounded by several cars pulled up at Las Vegas casino.

Several safeguards in black got out of the cars and opened the limousine’s door.

Two tall and cool oriental men stepped out of the limousine successively, with one in black, the other in white, which just looked like Black and White Spirits. They both had cold aura with them, which attracted the attention of other gamblers presented at the same time. Speculation abounded about the background of the two oriental men.

The man in white suit curled up a cold smile, with an inborn air of dominance.

The man in black suit also had a domineering air with the King manner, but the enchanting smile at the corner of his mouth made him look like a charming evil.

The safeguards cleaned their way. They made people feel that they were somebody, scary and horrible.

They walked in the casino.

Looked around indifferently.
