Chapter 30 - Sheri Hoal (2/2)

Eric also keeps on sending gifts and cards. In which Sheri wholly disregards them. The maids and the stuff especially her ȧssistant were all enthusiasts every time Sheri distributes the gift she receives from Eric and Devon. She tried returning to them, yet it ends up receiving more gifts.

”Why can't these men stop sending her gifts? Xioli you know what to do.” Sheri said while walking toward her desk.

Xioli smile. ”Yes maám.” He carefully gathered everything and properly distributes it to everyone.

Her fierce determination to not have any dealings with them has also been known by her parents. They tried asking her why she doesn't entertain them, but she just said she didn't want to have any dealings with the devils. In which her parents naturally ponder, what did Devon and Eric did toward their daughter?

One day Eric came toward her father's company and discusses a deal.

Sheri was there, her dad begged her so she endures the whole meeting.

Eric was merely focused on Sheri. He enables someone to deliver the presentation. He is observing everything about her. The way she bites her pen, creased her brow, talked and presents their plan.

Sheri wears a plain black pencil cut skirt and a blue navy blouse. She represents an exquisite modern modest woman. She wears minimal makeup, and her hair was put up using an ornamental hairpin.

He was in deep thought while looking at her. Sheri ignores that someone is staring at her.

When they are done. Eric walked toward her.

”Ms. Sheri, can I speak to you on a private? ” Eric asked her.

Sheri looked at her dad. Her dad smiles, he was also observing the interaction between the two. He went out together with the rest of the staff. They left Eric and Sheri alone. Making Sheri nervously and paled. She starts fidgeting.

”How can I help you, Mr. Copper?” she bravely looked at his eyes hiding her hand that starts shaking.

”I want to pursue you.” Eric casually said.

Sheri was stunned. ” Pardon?” Sheri asked. She even cleans her ear to really make sure she grasps what he stated.

Eric chuckled with her actions.

”I said, I want to pursue you. I know you've been avoiding me but still, I want to pursue you.” Eric said while leaning on the table facing the shocked Sheri.

” I'm sorry Mr. Copper, but I'm unavailable,” Sheri said while fixing the paper on her table.

Eric chuckled.

He went closer toward her and moves the flowing hair in front of her face and places it at the back of her ear and whisper.

”You are available,” Eric gently said while looking at her eyes.

Sheri froze. Eric strokes her lips but Sheri directly pushed him.

” Mr. Copper. It seems your getting out of line. I don't know you and don't ever intend to marry in this life. I will be entering a monastery soon so better forget about me. Sheri bluntly lies and bravely looked at him eye to eye.

Eric smiled tenderly at her. ”In that case, I will work hard to make sure you will not be accepted in any of those monasteries,” Eric said while smiling.

” Do as you wish,” Sheri said and walked away she can't stand talking to him. Leaving Eric gaze intently at her back.
