Chapter 71 - Sheri Hoal (2/2)
”I'm alright Mr. Devon,” Sheri said.
”Shoo go away.” Sheri thought to her self.
The door suddenly opens, and the old woman who she helped before came.
She is in a wheelchair and being pushed by her ȧssistant.
Devon turned around and saw his grandma.
”Grandma, why did you get up from your bed?” Devon worriedly asked.
”Hush, I'm good it's just a minor pain in my waist.” his grandma said.
His grandma looked at Sheri sitting in her bed.
”Oh sweety, how are you? When my grandson said you were here. I was a little worried.” his grandma said.
”I'm ok ma'am I'm just overworked,” Sheri said politely.
His grandma looked at Sheri's mom who just came out of the bathroom holding a vase.
”Ah, you must be the mother of this wonderful young lady.” his grandma said.
Her mom stiffened when she saw who came and visit her daughter.
It's the well-known iron lady of the Goori company. Her history is one of a kind that people don't want to make a mess with.
She immediately put down the vase next to a table of Sheri and reach her hand toward her.
”Yes ma'am I'm Sheri's mother,” her mom politely said.
His grandma reaches the hand of the mother of Sheri and holds it tight.
”You have a wonderful daughter. You did well in raising her. How about let's sit together with your husband and talk about engaging your daughter to my grandson here. He doesn't have any girlfriend yet. Your daughter is a good match for my grandson. I bet Sheri would not turn down this old ladies' wish. His grandma looked smilingly toward Sheri and her mom.
Her mom and Sheri were frozen on the spot. Both of them were tongue-tied, they were in a dilemma. Nobody wants to offend this family. They can make one's life heaven or hell.
Devon didn't object toward his grandma's words.
”Thoughtful of you madam. As a mother, I would like my daughter to choose for herself.” Her mom bravely said.
Sheri suddenly breathes. She felt like she stops breathing.
The old lady smiled when she hears what her mom said.
”That's wonderful then. Gabriel notifies Raven and William we will have a family meeting.” the old woman said while commanding her ȧssistant.
Sheri again froze.
”System let me do another mission. I can't take anymore this bull****.” called on Sheri. She's waiting but no one speaks.
Her mom on the other side. Froze. Her mind starts running while looking at the iron lady in front of her.
”Maybe we should talk when Sheri is good enough what do you think ma'am? I think Sheri is tired now. ” Her mother anxiously said toward the elder lady.
The elder lady smile. ” Alright, we need to set up as soon as possible for the meeting and you my, dear. Take good care of yourself. I'll see you tomorrow. Devon, I expect you to take good care of your future wife.” the elder woman firmly said toward her grandson.
Her grandson beam from ear to ear. ”Yes, ma'am,” Devon said.
When the old lady and Devon went out.
Sheri looked at her mom.
”Mom,” Sheri said.
Her mom looked at her and anxiously clasped her hand and firmly hold.
”Don't worry, Dad and I would do everything to not these things go through without your permission. Do not think about it. Take a good rest for now. ” Her mom embraces her before she left the room, she makes sure Sheri is sleeping.
