It was a dreamless night.
Sherry opened the door and the first thing she saw to start the morning was John.
She was already dressed up with Caprice. The child wanted to go to the same place where she had a waffle with
John the last morning.
As soon as Sherry mentioned it to John, he remembered the place and proceeded to take them. there.
The waiter had only just served the waffle on the table when Caprice immediately began tearing. at it excitedly. She
held up a piece in front of Sherry and urged her to eat. “Mommy, this pancake. tastes delicious!”
Sherry opened her mouth and took a bite.
It was certainly very tasty. After she swallowed the piece of waffle, she turned to Caprice with at radiant smile. “It’s
delicious, thank you Caprice.”
“You’re welcome, Mommy.” Caprice chirped joyfully, then she began prattling, “Yesterday I left a piece for Mommy
to eat too, but when I was on the way to see you with Daddy I think I dropped it somewhere.”
She was going to bring these tasty waffles to Sherry yesterday afternoon along with her father.

Yesterday?
She recalled seeing Caprice and John while she was driving to Lisa’s place yesterday. She remembered seeing
Caprice in John’s arms, cheerfully going on about something while eating. something.
It would appear that she was eating the same waffle that they were eating now.
She frowned and immediately regretted not stopping to at least say hello to them.
She quickly collected herself and thanked Caprice again with a warm and comforting smile, “It’s alright, now I’ve
eaten it. Everything is fine.”
With that, she took another large bite.
Caprice was pleased to see how much her mother was enjoying the waffle.
Sherry was relieved to see Caprice happy, so she ate as much of the waffle as she could stomach.
Time always seemed to pass faster whenever she was with Caprice.
Soon, it was the next day.
After having breakfast, Sherry entrusted Caprice to John and went to the office by herself as usual.
As soon as she stepped into the office tower, she spotted several shareholders and some department leaders
mingling with each other.
Among them were several shareholders who she knew were very close with Ron. They were all relatives of the
Sagers and tended to be very pompous whenever they saw Sherry.
Today was the sole exception. The moment they saw Sherry, they went up to greet her with bright. and welcoming
smiles on their faces.
“President Sherry, what a coincidence! I wasn’t expecting you to be here at this hour!”
“Sure is.”
Sherry smiled and added, “Unfortunately, I need to get to work.”
This was certainly not the first time they bumped into each other, but it was certainly the first time they took the
initiative to greet her. They had some nerve to act all friendly with her now of all times.
They suddenly stiffened upon hearing Sherry’s disinterested tone, but they made sure to keep up the same
enthusiastic smile.
“Hehe, that’s very unfortunate.”
One of the department leaders who was rather detached from these sorts of office drama and politics suddenly
spoke up, “I suppose so, but we do have to get back to work now. There’s going to be an important meeting later,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwe better get right to it.”
With that, he excused himself.
Sherry followed after.
The shareholders held their tongues.
There was to be an important monthly meeting where the leaders of each department had to provide an elaborate
report of the upcoming projects and establish proper communications.
The marketing department managed by Sherry was one of the most important divisions inside Sager Corporation.
Her assigned seat was right next to Lisa’s.
On Lisa’s left was Ron, followed by Aiden and other department leaders.
As usual, Sherry was the first to present. She gave an overview of the new projects coming in, which included two
major projects that Carl managed to finalize with their partners last week.
As she went on about the two major projects, nearly everyone present at the meeting seemed very impressed
about the terms agreed upon and the scope of the project as a whole. The only ones who seemed rather detached
and disinterested were Ron and Aiden.
Someone suddenly asked, “President Sherry, were you the one who ended up striking up these deals again?”
Sherry looked around the table and announced with a smile, “Actually, I’ve been very busy with other matters over
the last week. It was Carl who negotiated these terms by himself.”
