A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 107 Starting Over

“Where is Sherry? I want to see her!” Liam was a little worried. It had already been a week, there was no news from her and Liam was getting really worried. On that day, what she said made him changed his impression of her. In fact, from the time she helped him dodged a bullet, his attitude and opinion towards her had changed. This time, although she acted very strong after she was hurt, he was still very worried about her in his heart.

“Can you please leave, Sherry is fine!” Celia blocked the doorway, not allowing him to enter. “Just go back and warn William, if he dares to mess with Sherry again, I'll break his leg!”

“Celia, it's not my fault! You can't blame me, I'm not the same as Will!"

“Weren't you the one who called William? Couldn't you have smothered it to yourself? Why did you have to tell him that Lucile was in the mental hospital?”

“Celia, let Liam come in!” Sherry came out of the room, her expression was calm, and she greeted Liam politely when she saw him.

“Sherry, how are you?” Liam suddenly found that when facing Sherry, he would run out of words to say even if he normally was cheerful and talkative. This was because when he faced someone with such a calm expression, he just felt heartache.

Also, she had lost some weight!

“I'm fine, Liam!”

“Sherry!” Celia suddenly shouted; she could not stand it anymore. She could not stand that Sherry was still able to have a calm expression on her face.

Sherry froze, “Celia!”

“Hats off to you, I don’t want to care about you anymore, you really piss me off! I really admire your ability to not let your emotion get the better of you. However, did you really forget about what happened back then? Damn it, if you’re so great, so be it! Liam, go and tell William, if he wronged Sherry, I will not let him off the hook!” After saying those threatening words, Celia left hurriedly.

“Liam, Celia did not mean any harm, please don't mind her!” Sherry explained.

Liam looked at her. Although she looked slender and delicate, she had such a strong inner will, Liam really felt sorry for her.

However, at that moment, he knew that mentioning William will worsen her mood. So, instead of saying anything, he just looked at her and kept sighing…

Sherry went to look for a job.

After a week, she looked as if she was reborn like the Phoenix Nirvana. She always carries a faint smile on her face. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

With a newspaper on one hand, she came to a company called Cohen Group, it is said that this was a new company, although it was listed less than a year ago, the company developed rapidly. In just a year, Cohen Group even began to involve itself in various fields such as finance, banking and investment.

Cohen Group wanted to recruit an assistant for the president. Since Sherry studied in finance, she naturally wanted to try to get the job.

Once she entered the building, she saw a large group of people who came to apply for jobs with job application forms in their hands. This caused her mind to recall the incident happened during that day when she applied a job at the Rowland Group. With a bitter smile on her face, she thought to herself, ‘why did I still remember? Sherry, you must forget! You must be strong!’

When the time came, she stood up from the lounge chair, wearing a gray suit, wrapped around her increasingly undernourished body, and walked calmly into the office.

She did not expect that it was so simple to apply for a job here, there was only one examiner, and that was the president of Cohen Group, Cohen.

The moment she saw him, Sherry froze. She did not expect the examiner to be Cohen.

Cohen was also a bit surprised. However, once he saw that it was Sherry, and looked at the form in her hand, a playful smile could be seen on his face. “Miss Sherry, is your mother's name Sierra Anderson?"

Sherry froze, hindered by the fact that he had lent money to herself, she remained calm and replied back saying, “Mr. Spencer, this is my personal matter, does your company still need to inquire about the ancestors of employees when hiring assistants?”

“Ha! You're very combative! Then, without asking personal questions, I want to know why you left the Rowland Group?” His face straightened up. “The Rowland Group is so much better than Cohen Group, both in terms of strength and its history. Of course, Cohen Group still has room to grow, and I believe that in no time, Cohen Group will surpass the Rowland’s Group and become the best integrated general division in all of Asia! But why did you decided to work in a different company?"

Sherry lowered her head and pondered a little. “This reason I resigned has nothing to do with the Rowland’s Group, it can be said that the Rowland’s Group is the most generous in the industry when it comes to treating its employees, logically I shouldn’t leave there. The reason I left was because of private relations that I will not go in depth to. However, it does not involve any business confidential!"

“Miss Sherry, being my assistant will be very tiring and busy, do you have the confidence to do well?” Cohen looked her straight in the eyes.

“It will be enriching to be busy working!” Sherry replied subtly.

“Great! You've been accepted! Sherry, I've violated the hiring principle! I’ve told you the result directly! Others would normally be informed through the phone!” Cohen smiled and said.

“Thank you, Mr. Spencer!” Sherry did not expect to be accepted so easily. “You will be my personal assistant who is also responsible for taking care of my personal matter. For example, if I want to send flowers to a certain lady, you have to help me buy the flowers. Other than that, you also need to help me book airline tickets, and even the hotel rooms for me! However, since we are only in a working relationship, there is no need for Miss Sherry to be overcautious, I always held on to the saying that ‘The fox always preys farthest from home’!”

Sherry’s face turned red, Cohen was really a charming person. He was already quite old but still quite unorthodox, saying things that could make people feel angry but not enough to make them retort back. “Don’t worry, Mr. Spencer, I will be a qualified assistant!”

“Miss Sherry, can you start to work now?” Cohen asked with great appreciation.

“Yes!”

“That’s great! You should first familiarize yourself with the environment with the help of my assistant, Keegan Fox!” After Cohen pressed the phone, a tall man in a suit immediately came in. He was in his thirties, with a cold expression on his face.

“Keegan, this is Sherry. From now on she will be my assistant, please bring her to familiarize with her new working environment!”

“Understood!” Keegan nodded. “Miss Sherry, please!”

After she left, Cohen held her resume in his hand, looking at the column which had her mother’s name, two words were written, Sierra Anderson. Cohen then fell into deep thought...

Just like that, dramatically, Sherry became Cohen’s assistant and she began to work at her new job.

As winter came, the high wind started to blow. It seemed that this winter will be extraordinarily cold.

It has been three weeks since she came to work at Cohen Group, Sherry had adapted to the environment here, and she also got to know a little bit more about Cohen, who looks debauched and unrestrained on the outside, but was exceptionally serious in handling his work.

There was a rumor spread by her colleagues at the company saying that Mr. Spencer once sat in jail for ten years, she did not know whether it was true, but she could see that Cohen was a person with a history!

Sherry had her own office, although it had transparent glass walls, it was a relatively quiet space. In this regard, Cohen did better than the Rowland Group, he gave employees sufficient space to improve their efficiency in their work.

Keegan walked into the office room and said in a cold voice, “Miss Sherry, today the representative of TS Group will come to negotiate, Mr. Spencer asked you and I to pick the representative up on his behalf and arrange a hotel for him.”

“I'll go right away.” Sherry immediately stood up.

Keegan added, “Right now, the president wants you to go to his office!”

“Alright!” Sherry picked up her bag and went to the restroom for a while to tidy up her grooming. Recently, she had insomnia and her face did not look good so she had been wearing a bit of makeup. She was worried that her makeup was smudged and it will affect the company's image.

When she had done her makeup again, she went to Cohen’s office.

“President, you are looking for me?!”

“Cohen looked up and noticed Sherry’s face, this girl who never wore makeup was actually wearing makeup today, so he could not help but ask, “Are you very tired lately?”

“No!”

“Are you adapting well in this new job?”

“Yes!”

To be honest, working here was quite comfortable, Cohen provided a good working environment and the staff were very harmonious. Mr. Spencer himself was quite humorous and funny, although he was already about fifty years old, he could still be very charming, this often attracted the admiration from her.

“After picking up the representative from the TS Group tonight, I want you to accompany me to attend a banquet, can you arrange it?” Cohen asked politely.

The way that he looked at Sherry was like a father looking at his daughter. Moreover, Sherry had always felt that he was like a father to her, except for occasionally talking a little bit explicitly, this person was really a good person.

“But my son is coming back tonight, today is Friday, I'm afraid I can't go with you!”

“Your son?” Cohen raised his eyebrows, he did not expect Sherry to have a child. “You have a child?”

Sherry looked at him who was in disbelief and smiled lightly, “Yes, Mr. Spencer, I have a son, he is five years old!”

“It’s fine. Take your son and let’s attend together!”

“Will it be appropriate?” Sherry laughed.

“You are very smart, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I can’t remember the mathematical question said by others, I need your help to memorize it, the others are very stupid and can’t really memorize it, otherwise I won’t trouble you on a weekend!”

“Actually, I'm very stupid!” Sherry did not expect that Mr. Spencer was telling her to use her brain to memorize. Since it was for work, and the president allow her to take Dan with them, it will be bad to reject him.

“You're not stupid, now go ahead, go pick up the client! By the way, order a bouquet of flowers for me, I want to go pick up a beautiful girl!” Cohen laughed.

“Uh!” Sherry froze, these few weeks, she helped him to order flowers every day, vaguely knowing that Cohen was a suave person, but fortunately he did not play with women in the company. There was an unwritten rule for the company employees, which was that nobody was not allowed to fall in love with anyone who worked in the company. “Alright, I’ll immediately book some flowers for you!”

“Ok! Although I do not like women who wear makeup, but this light makeup of yours looks extraordinarily pleasing to the eye!” Cohen added.

“That is because recently my face looks quite bad while I also had to meet up with some customers and I do not dare to look bad in front of them!” Sherry explained as she lowered her head.

“Beautiful!” Cohen praised her from the bottom of his heart, and then sighed, “It's good to be young! Please use less cosmetics in the future, it's not good for your skin and it's easy to breed skin cancer!”

“Yeah! Thank you for the president's concern, I'll pay more attention to it in the future!” Sherry stood up and said, “Assistant Keegan and I will leave first!”

“Go ahead!” Cohen nodded his head…

Airport.

Keegan stopped the car, the plane had not arrived yet. They drove a luxury RV and the two of them came to the pick-up gate.

Keegan turned his head to look at Sherry, she always had a faint smile on her face. No matter when he looked at her, she was always like this, like she had nothing bothering her, ever so serene, so calm- minded.

“Miss Sherry, why are you always so happy?” Keegan finally asked the confusion he had for these pass three weeks. He was not a talkative person, but seeing her smile, he would feel inexplicably at ease in his heart, because her smile would infect others.

“Well!” Sherry’s impression of him was that he had always been very cold and did not like to speak or laugh. So, they never talked about anything outside of work, seeing that he had asked her about this, she was quite surprised. “Is Assistant Keegan unhappy?”

“No! I am just curious about how can you smile everyday/”
