A Moment in Destiny

She turned around and saw a tall figure standing in front of a huge French window, through which the sunlight filtered on him, making his attractive face seen clearly. He raised the corner of his mouth, a relaxed but charming smile appearing on his face.

Sherry stood still in a daze, watching him standing by the window, with a smile forming at the corner of his mouth. She felt her eyes were wet with tears welling up. Now she understood the feelings of worrying about a person badly.

With his sight fixed on her, William strode over and concealed the loneliness in his eyes. He wouldn’t let anyone see his vulnerability!

Her coming surprised him, but happiness rose up in his heart with the sight of her.

He moved his lips as if to speak but in the end he didn’t, just looked at her with a calm expression.

Their sights met. Sherry felt her heart pounding like a captive animal. He walked over slowly and saw tears in the corner of her face. Shocked a little bit, he asked, “What’s the matter?”

Tears blurred her eyes. She suddenly felt awkward and turned her face aside.

She realized her abruptness. It seemed that she had over did it, because their relationship did not come that far that she should worry about him so badly! For a moment, she was overwhelmed by embarrassment and stillness.

He reached out his long and slender fingers and raised her chin, asking again with a husky voice, “Hmm? What’s the matter?”

A drop of tear slipping down her face, Sherry watched him and opened her mouth but said nothing!

William smiled. His eyes were bright like a torch. But the tears shining in her crystal eyes made his eyes sour with tears too. Maybe she was just shedding tears for herself? And he was surprised that he was touched by her tears. Unbelievable! He must have been bewitched by this little woman.

“Are you all right?” she finally uttered, with a shaking voice!

He suddenly pulled her into his arms and laid his head on her shoulder.

His sudden movement made her heart race like a drum.

William guessed she must have heard the news, but he didn’t expect she would come to see him!

“William, what exactly happened?” she spoke with a trembling voice, “Tell me, please!”

“You worry that I won’t be able to support your life?” he asked.

Her heart still beat wildly, and her throat tightened. She didn’t know what to say. Even now he still got a mood to play jokes, how annoying he was! “You……”

He held her shoulders and fixed his eyes on her, “I’m fine. I didn’t think you would worry about me so much. I’m really flattered!”

“Hateful!” she thought he seemed happy to lose his position as CEO.

“Sherry!” what a heartbreaking gentle call, “It’s fine with me that my position was replaced. Now I’ve got a lot of free time for something else. Can you imagine that?”

His understatements about the fact made her eyes well up tears again. She asked, “Why?”
