Sherry had been so preoccupied with Malcolm and Sophia that she had completely
forgotten the purpose of her visit today.
She checked her phone and found a message from him.
“Don’t spend too much time in the sea breeze, you might catch a cold,” the sniper
warned.
Sherry’s hand shook, and her phone almost fell into the sea.
He was on the yacht!
Sherry bit her lip, unsure of how to respond to him.
“Would you like to see me?” Mr. Sniper sent another message.

“Sherry, not right now” he replied.
Rejected.
But Sherry wasn’t too offended because hadn’t Mr. Sniper already told her this?
He didn’t want to turn on the lights and hid behind a mask to avoid being seen.
“I’m sorry; I shouldn’t have come, and I won’t do it again,” she said.
“There’s no need to apologize; I told you not to apologize in front of me. Sherry, I
promise you that when the time comes, I will show you the real me.”
“Okay.”

Sherry’s phone screen went blank, and she wanted to put it back in her bag, but his
message came back: “You look beautiful today.”
These five words seemed to pierce her ears and heart with a warm and comforting
feeling.

Just like his warm breath on her neck and his whispered words of passion in her ear in
the middle of the night…
Sherry’s face flushed, and she hurriedly touched her heated cheeks, hoping that the seal
breeze would calm her down. But she was also upset because she had only been
joking around with Camila, yet his five simple words made her feel restless.
Her fingers trembled slightly as she said, “Thank you.”
His call came before she could send it, as if he was watching her every move.
The sea breeze and his faint breath, “Sherry.”
.Hmm.”
“Don’t dress like this in the future.”
Why would he deny it so quickly after saying she looked wonderful today?
“Is it because it’s so different from usual?” she asked, feeling a little ashamed. “Camila
chose my outfit for today; perhaps they don’t suit me.”

“Her taste is good,” Mr. Sniper said, his voice slightly hoarse, “and you look really
beautiful in white. Sherry, please try on different dresses for me when you get home
tonight.”
Her face flushed even more.

She looked around nervously; fortunately, there weren’t many people around now, so no
one noticed her blushing face.
“OK,” she hummed softly.
Mr. Sniper seemed to sense her timidity and unease, and his mood immediately
improved. “Are you blushing again?”
“No, you’re talking nonsense.”
“Why are you so easily embarrassed? But,” Mr. Sniper continued, “I find it appealing.”
From where was this person calling her?

“Are you going to be busy until late tonight?” Sherry inquired.
“It was supposed to be late, but now… “I can’t wait to get home and see you change.”
“Don’t you have anyone around you?” Sherry scolded. “Aren’t you embarrassed to say
these things?”
“How do I feel?”
“Feel… cheesy?”
“Isn’t cheesy delicious? Don’t you like it?” Mr. Sniper asked.
She enjoyed it.
She really enjoyed it.
With Mr. Sniper, she could feel needed, adored, and cherished.

How could she possibly dislike it?
“Sherry, please go home; I want to see you.”
“Hmm, okay.”
He continued, “Let Camila send you back.”
“I won’t bother her, she has other friends. I’ll just take a taxi back alone.”

Mr. Sniper insisted, “Let her send you; you look so beautiful today; I can’t rest assured if
you go back alone.”
“Then… I’ll ask her.”
Just tell Camila that she’ll send you back, and I’ll take her to her father’s company.”
Sherry found Camila near the buffet table.
She had a large group of friends and was currently sharing the excitement of teaching
Sophia a lesson with a few of them.

Camila pushed Sherry into the group and proudly introduced her, saying, “This is the

friend I just told you about. How is she doing? Isn’t she lovely? Did I tell you the truth?”
Several boys, dressed stylishly and with some social standing, all glanced at Sherry.
Some were amazed, some admiring, some with wandering eyes, and some lost in
thought.
Sherry wasn’t used to receiving so much attention, especially from boys, so she took
Camila’s hand and said, “Camila, I want to go back first; can you give me a ride?”
“I’ll take you,” a boy in a black suit offered. “Where do you live? I’m about to leave and
can give you a ride.”
“Go away; we can see through your intentions!” the other boys immediately interrupted.
“You just want to go after her!”
Several people taunted the boy, who became upset and embarrassed. “What about you
guys? Who wouldn’t want to go after her? Who didn’t follow Camila to the stern with her
just now?”

Several people started laughing, hiding their own thoughts.
Camila proudly raised her hand and said, “Let me tell you guys, Sherry doesn’t have at
boyfriend yet, she’s single! If you want to pursue her, now’s your chance; everyone is
equal when it comes to opportunities!”

Another message from Mr. Sniper rang through her phone in her bag.
“I take back what I said earlier; her father won’t be able to get that piece of land
anymore.”
Sherry couldn’t help but laugh.
Was he jealous of all the boys who adored her?
Sherry decided not to expose him.

“Hmph.”
Sherry couldn’t stop laughing after hearing just one word.
Camila eventually dropped her off at the Hilton Hotel.

Camila looked at her phone as they were about to part ways and exclaimed, “Wow,
Sherry, my dad just told me that he finally got the piece of land he’s been trying to
acquire, and he only spent half the money! I’ll have money in my pocket for the next six
months!”
Mr. Sniper’s haste surprised Sherry, but she was happy for her. “That’s great; Mr. Castillo
is a good person, and he deserves it.”
“Go inside quickly; I need to get home too. I’ll treat you to imported lobster when I get
my pocket money!”
Okay, be careful on your way.

She instinctively reached out for the light switch but hesitated, unsure if Mr. Sniper had
returned.
In the next instant, a pair of powerful arms encircled her waist.

“I successfully obtained the land at a discounted price; how do you intend to
me?” he murmured, placing a gentle kiss on her slender neck from behind.
