Man, what's wrong with you?

Chapter 68 He's Recovered

Steve drank his tea leisurely. Sherry looked out of the window while they both sat awkwardly in silence.

'If you're really heart set on doing this, I'll definitely tell Linda why you actually want to ask her out for dinner," Sherry said after what felt like an age, breaking the silence.

In Sherry's mind, she thought that it'd be in Linda's best interests if she knew what Steve really wanted. Sherry was worried though that Linda would be disheartened if she knew the truth.

Steve nodded and said, "Okay. Tell her the truth, then I will genuinely pursue her."

"Steve!" Sherry was so infuriated that she couldn't help but shout.

"Even if you do tell her that I'm just using her and I only see her because of you, she'd never believe you. Even worse is that your friendship will probably be over,"

said Steve with an arrogant smile.

Sherry had never been so annoyed by Steve.

However, in Steve's mind, he thought Sherry was being unreasonably stubborn.

"Only an idiot would believe you," Steve further added.

Sherry was fuming. She got annoyed at Steve in the past but she never really hated him. As long she didn't want to do something, Steve couldn't force her.

But now, Sherry was really beginning to despise him. She knew he wasn't kidding.

He was saying whatever he could to get what he wanted!

"What the hell do you want from me to let her off?" questioned Sherry coldly.

Steve leaned forward and looked into Sherry's fiery eyes. "It's easy. When I call you later, don't make any excuses not to come."

"I'm too busy to go out with you," Sherry refuted immediately.

If She went out with Steve every day, she wouldn't get a second to work.

"Don't reject me when you're free. Or else, I'll just go find Linda then."

Sherry kept silent for a few seconds, sighed and helplessly nodded.

The war in the business world was complicated, but the emotional world was much more intense.

Sherry was way too conflicted now. She'd become something of a hot property with all the male interest that she had been getting. It was best if she just hid her emotion to avoid getting hurt.

The more she repressed all emotion, the more attention she seemed to get.

Sherry was completely clueless as to when Steve started liking her.

She'd been hurt too many times so she wasn't going to let Linda, her good friend, get wounded for love.

Steve was inexplicably psychotic. Sherry could only imagine how many unsuspecting women fell into his traps.
