Chapter 13
At the most inconspicuous place of the dance floor, sits the focus of all, Sherri Leng.
The beauty of Sherri could not be ignored. Her skin was delicate, and her black and bright hair made her look delicate. Her curvaceous figure was incisively and vividly set off by the dress that fitted perfectly on her. The beauty from head to toes were watched by all the male figures on the other side of the dance floor.
There was no doubt that today's Sherri Leng was a success that could not be duplicated.
She gracefully picked up the wine in her glass, which she shook constantly. The wine reflected the faces of all the people at the banquet. She was like an arrogant queen, watching everything happening here. Everyone's eyes were attracted by her, or perhaps tonight, everyone was her foil.
A vicious light burst out of Janine Su's eyes. Yes, she admitted that she was crazy because of her jealousy towards Sherri. But thinking that after tonight, she would not be so arrogant anymore and would eventually become a plaything of the upper class, she immediately turned herself into a good mood.
After tidying up the corner of her clothes and calming herself down, Janine walked up to Sherri with a smile and said, "after all, you had a relationship with Zion An. I'd like to propose a toast to you." Looking at the fake smile on her face, Sherri took the wine from Janine without saying a word.
Pretending to be careless at the hand over, Janine knocked over the glass in her hand and said insincerely, "I'm sorry. I didn't stand firm just now."
Although she said so, the gloating on her face could not be hidden at all.
She glanced at Janine coldly. The two of them knew clearly whether she did it on purpose or not.
Michelle Leng knew her well, that Sherri as an arrogant woman wouldn't waste her time on people like Janine. She would definitely take the cocktail right away. At the same time, she specially told Janine to mention Zion.
Thinking that her boyfriend had been snatched, she didn't know how Sherri would feel if this is mentioned again. Thinking of this, Michelle couldn't help laughing.
Then Michelle walked up to her and said in a master's manner, "Oh, Janine, why are you so careless? How about this? I'll take Sherri to the room to clean her clothes up."
Knowing that it would not be a good idea to make trouble in front of so many people at this time, Sherri agreed and went upstairs with Michelle.
"Sherri, do you still know where your room is?" Michelle said proudly.
The layout of all the rooms had been destroyed. The decoration of the room was a gift from Sherri's parents for her eighteenth birthday, but they had been framed by someone else now. Holding back her sadness, she asked, "how is it living here, Ms. Leng? What makes you so happy? Just because you have something that I have now thrown away?"
"Humph! What else do you have now?" Said Michelle angrily. Do you think you are superior to others just because you have hooked up with some people? Don't blame me for not reminding you. You've only been back to city A for a short time, and haven't known him clearly. He is not interested in women.
"
Although Michelle said it in an unfriendly tone, but her jealousy towards Sherri could be seen in all these series of questions she had asked.
"Let's wait for the young man to regain his interest and see how rude you are."
No matter what happened earlier in front of others, Michelle couldn't keep calm at all in the face of Sherri.
"I've cleaned up my clothes. I'm going to go downstairs now."
When she turned around, Sherri gave a look at Michelle like an ant.
The contempt in Sherri's eyes deepened Michelle's hatred on her.
In the next second, Michelle have put on the most decent smile and said, "Sherri, I'll lead you downstairs."
Although she didn't know what Michelle was planning, but Sherri was so proud that she wouldn't refuse. If she refused, it would meant timidity. She was very clear about it.
When Sherri and Michelle came downstairs hand in hand, their noble posture made them look like two princesses, which shook everyone at the banquet. The Leng family really deserved its reputation. Taking the red wine from the waiter, Sherri walked towards her original position.
When Sherri was about to reach the edge of the dancing floor, Michelle suddenly walked up to her and said, "Sherri, do you have any idea you want to put up when you saw the original layout being changed?" Hearing that, Sherri was shocked for a moment. At that moment, Janine exchanged a look with Michelle, and then walked up to Sherri and grabbed her hand. "Sherri, don't blame me, okay? We all hope that you can come back one day."
"Ah," said Janine timely, turning everyone's attention to the dance floor.
"Hypocritical," said Sherri. Then she pulled out her hand and Michelle fell down as Sherri was about to leave. It was in mid-October when it was still cold. The temperature in the water was not a joke. Bang! The crowd burst into an uproar.
Sherri didn't expect that Michelle would be so open-minded to carry out such an action.
Indeed, she had done everything she could to bring her down.
The party was full of discussions. A white figure jumped into the swimming pool and picked up the drowned woman, Michelle.
Then Janine and Melissa Leng walked up to help.
"Ah! It's so cold! Are you alright Michelle? "As soon as Melissa came into contact with Michelle, she shouted.
Holding the trembling Michelle, she looked very embarrassed. Her whole body was wet, which made her dress more fitting. Her hair was wet and powerless on her scalp. Her makeup was flushed into a mess by the water in the pool, and she looked pitiful and trembling.
Michelle turned her head and said weakly, "Sherri, come back. Please. Don't blame me anymore. Father also hoped that you can have a good future." After saying that, Michelle lowered her head to hide her smile in an instant. She thought complacently in her heart, "Sherri, you're over this time."
"Sherri, you are so vicious. I saw you pushing Ms. Leng into the water with my own eyes!" Said Janine, who was standing next to her. Such a dissatisfied woman's face made Sherri feel uncomfortable. "Exactly!" Melissa understood immediately what was happening and said "Sherri, I know you didn't like us, but my father took over the company because uncle committed suicide feeling shameful after tax evasion was made public. But you can't just push my sister in the public! You know my sister can't swim."
"You haven't changed, Sherri! Who else do you want? To kill someone this time?" The young man who had saved Michelle said.
"Harrison Bai? !" A trace of surprise quickly appeared in Sherri's eyes. Biting her lips, she asked, "do you really believe what she just said?"
As a playmate of her childhood, Sherri had always regarded Harrison as her brother. But since his girlfriend, Alice Gu, had died, he started hating Sherri as much as he could.
He knew that Sherri had always been arrogant, but he didn't expect her to be so cold-blooded. "Moving on without thinking of your previous relationships, and hurting innocent people. It's very like your style, isn't it?"
"Isn't it enough for you to kill Alice?" Melissa added a handful of oil at the right time.
"You don't have to say that." she said it with an aggrieved look on her face, Michelle had played her part well. Tears kept rolling in her eyes, and others looked more worriedly.
Michelle mentioned further: "Sherri, if you want to hate me, just do it. If it can make you happier that way... Ahem... It's okay for me to be wronged like this. "
"Michelle, it's too cold. Won't you catch a cold?" Shouted Janine, as if she was afraid that others would not know.
It was a good show, as Elliot Mo and Sam Leng had come back they saw it right away.
He had to reconsider the two daughters of the Leng family.
In the Leng family, there are indeed many poisonous snakes.
"Sherri, you..." Sam was very satisfied with his two daughters. He pretended to be sad and lectured towards Sherri, but his unspoken words aroused the speculations of the banquet. "I heard that the Leng family has been preparing for the capital recently. Is it related to the shares left by Edward Leng?"
People couldn't afford guessing, let alone the gossip of such a rich family.
Sure enough, here came the old fox of the Leng family.
Although incompletely, but Elliot had already understood what has happened.
Sherri wanted to say something, but it seemed that she was wrong to say more in this situation.
When all the people at the banquet were looking at and guessing about Sherri, Elliot walked up to her and said, "I believe in you."
The firmness in Elliot's eyes made Sherri absent-minded for a moment. It used to be her father who stood in front of her, but this time...
No matter what, Sherri would not admit defeat. After her father had left, she had to fight alone all the time. Except from her sister who's in the hospital, she would be her only motivation. This time, there was another man named Elliot.
She felt at ease when she saw Elliot. A soft flower appeared on her hard wall beside her heart.
At the thought of Alina Leng, a lot of thorns appeared around her. Sherri had to bear all of these by herself.
"Thank you, Mr. Mo." Sherri put on an alienated look.
"Just now, he clearly felt that her heart was a little open. Why did she change into another look in an instant. Forget it. Anyway, I'm by your side. "
Elliot thought that he should forgive his woman's willfulness and make her strong.
As for these people, they would all be returned.
Elliot had come up with a hundred ways to kill the people of the Leng family.
"Indeed, speaking of the villain who speaks up first, I can't defeat you guys." It seemed that Sherri's firm eyes were about to pierce through Michelle. She turned to Sam and said indifferently, "uncle, this is the last time I'll call you uncle. I will investigate the cause of my parents' death and prove their innocence. Before that, I advise you to take care if your matter first!"
The party ended in discord, but Sherri, who walked out of the dance floor, was still very proud. Her straight back exuded a strong smell, which could not be underestimated. Such a resolute look of Sherri made the people at the party admire her very much, but it made Elliot's heart ache to see her like this.
"Sherri, shall we go home?"
"No, I want to see my sister. Take me to the hospital after changing my clothes."
"Of course."
"Thank you." Sherri was very tired, she had not only met the sisters of Leng family but also met Harrison, who was a troublesome old friend. After saying thank you, she fell asleep in the car defenselessly.
Elliot changed the music to soothing piano music. He didn't like to hear Sherri say thank you. "Mrs. Mo, we are a couple. You don't have to be so respectful. You saved my life when I was in the United States before." Of course, Sherri had already feel deeply asleep and couldn't hear these words at all. 0000
