"That was my home!" Virgil's emotions flared up again.
The only thing Rita could do was to comfort him.
"You must hold firm to the belief that those developers will be punished by the law one day. The law won't let anyone who exploits loopholes off the hook. Let's end the interview here. Sorry, I shouldn't have kept asking you about the past or reopening old wounds. I'll look into Esmond Parr through other avenues. Don't worry; there has been progress. Another person I know might have connections with him, and I might be able to uncover a lot from her." "Really? Does this mean I can soon return to my family?" asked Virgil.

'But what if I bring Sherman in? With his family backing him, hardly anyone would dare to oppose him, right?' thought Rita.

'Sherman should be able to uncover the truth very quickly if he involved himself in the matter!' The more Rita thought about it, the more excited she became, so she went straight to Sherman's company to find him.
Rita thought she would have to wait downstairs for a long tbefore getting to meet Sherman. To her surprise, the receptionist smiled and ushered her into an elevator as soon as she showed up. "Miss Rita, Mister Sherman said that from now on, you can go straight to his office to wait for him." Even though Rita was somewhat surprised, she did not show it on her face.
In fact, the receptionist seemed even more excited than she did. Ever since Sherman instructed all the receptionists to let Rita cand go as she pleased, they had been secretly looking forward to meeting this legendary woman.
'Is she the company president's fiancee?' wondered the receptionists.
No one had ever received the kind of treatment Rita was getting. The moment the receptionists saw Rita, they all nodded in realization.

"Miss Rita, Mister Sherman is with another guest at the moment. Do you mind waiting here for a moment? Would you like scoffee, tea, or water?" Rita waved repeatedly. "Lucy, I hadn't even told Sherman I was coming. Is it really okay forto wait here like this? You know what? Just tell him I'm not coming anymore." "Don't worry, Miss Rita. After your last visit, Mister Sherman mentioned you don't need to make an
appointment to see him. However, the current guest in his office is a bit special, so you might need to wait a little longer." "Oh..." Rita nodded somewhat confusedly.
Even when Lucy closed the office door behind her, Rita still had not quite grasped why Sherman wash giving her such special treatment, especially since they were not even that close! Even so, she could not help but feel a surge of warmth flowing into her heart.
I 'Does this mean I hold a special place in Sherman's heart? she wondered. X
