Chapter 37 Being Caught In Bed (Part One) (1/2)

Sherry trembled with fear at the thought.

Steve frowned in dissatisfaction and said, ”It doesn't matter. You can be my female partner, and still, represent the company.”

”No, you don't understand. It's a big news who your female partner is, and I don't want to be the center of gossip. I don't want everyone to misunderstand me.”

She shook her head in dismay and fear, for all she wanted now was to excel in her job and work hard, and she wanted to work for the things she needed with her ability, and not because it was provided by any other man.

If she became his female partner, she would be the hottest topic in the city.

Suddenly, she remembered that Jeremy was likely to attend the party on account of their friendship.

Of course, she was no longer afraid of Jeremy, and she didn't care about what he thought of her, but she was so tired of all the drama, and she just wanted to avoid all the trouble that being with either of them brought.

Steve was not willing to give up at all, but when he saw how determined Sherry was, he knew that he had no chance at that moment. He told himself that it was more important to make sure she attended his birthday party.

As long as she didn't reject him directly, he was confident that he would conquer her heart, sooner or later!

”Well, since you are so determined, I won't force you, but you have to come on that day!” Steve compromised, although there were still traces of disappointment in his voice.

And when Sherry heard this, she sighed in relief like a thorn had been plucked from her side. She was worried that Steve would force her just like Jeremy was fond of doing, as her rejection had basically humiliated him. Thankfully, that reason was enough for him.

”Well, let's continue to talk about the advertising plan!” said Sherry lightly, picking up a pen on the table.
