Chapter 158
On the way bark, the couple had different thoughts in their minds. Joy was a little depressed. She wanted to see her granddaughter every day, but this demand was currently impossible to achieve.
Nathan glanced at his wife, who was not in a good mood. After some consideration, he reminded her. “Don’t interfere in our son’s matters anymore. Just chase him out Mrs. Landor is right. Our son’s temperament is unstable, and his words are unreliable He’s not stable enough on the side of love. There were always rumors before. It’s reasonable for her parents to be worried. Let the young people settle their matters themselves. If your son likes her, she will agree after he chases her for a long time. With his sloppy appearance, no girl will think he is reliable. If he wants a wife. let him think of a way himself. We’ve already done what we should We can’t chase after a wife for him”
They had made it clear what they had to say!
Joy was silent. For a moment, she did not know what to say. She, who used to be nagging, was speechless.
“Don’t worry: The Landor family didn’t refuse us from visiting the child, did they? Haste makes waste. You can only rely on your son when it comes to his relationships. How can it be so easy to marry the apple of the Landor family’s eye?”
Just Mr. Landor was a difficult challenge for your son to pass.
Joy sighed. In her heart, she despised Hackett for being so useless. In the end, she nodded helplessly and agreed with Nathan.
At the same time, Sherri had just come out of the operating theater. She was in a good mood after delivering the first baby
in the morning
Every time the child was born, crying loudly, and when both the pregnant woman and the child were healthy. Sherri was the happiest and felt a sense of accomplishment.
Alter washing her hands, she undressed her clothes and took her phone from the cabinet. Seeing that there were five missed calls from her father. Sherri thought it must be something urgent and immediately called back. “Dad”
On the other end of the line. Richard patiently said to his daughter softly. “Sherri. I know everything about you. Your mother has also told me about Ruby Im not calling to scold you I want to tell you not to accept the child’s father so easily because you have his child. You’re born to be a princess, Sherri. You have to be pampered by Prince Charming in the future, understand? Even without the Blackwell family, you’re still a princess I can afford to raise you. Don’t think about problems. with psychological burdens, and follow your heart. If you like Mr. Blackwell, I’ll follow your wishes, but the premise is that he likes you more than you like him. He has to get past me, understand?”
Sherri’s face was already covered in tears. She held it in and did not make a sound. She gritted her teeth and listened to her father quietly
Richard knew his daughter was listening, so he continued, “Sherri, remember this. Even if you don’t marry for the rest of your life and raise Ruby alone, I won’t despise you. Your mother is just stubborn but soft-hearted If you don’t marry happily, she would rather you stay home for the rest of your life. Although she says she despises you, she dotes on you in
her heart”
Sherri wiped her tears and adjusted her emotions. She said in a nasal voice, “Got it, Daddy Daddy. I love you”
Hearing that his daughter was crying, Richard’s heart ached ‘Don’t cry. If you cry. I will feel bad. Work hard. Even if the sky falls, your father and brother will hold it up for you. It won’t hit you.”
After hanging up. Richard regretted calling his daughter. He wouldn’t have called her if he had known she would cry. He might as well talk to her when she got home tonight.
Sherri felt quite depressed. Her eyes were sore as she thought she had let her father down. She wanted to go to the cafe to buy a cutler to adjust her mood.
After buying the coffee, she held it with both hands and sat on the bench in a daze, thinking about something about liking Hackett… Although she had never been in a relationship, she had watched many television shows. She did not dislike Hackett and found that she could just be herself without restraint when she was with him.
A man’s sound suddenly sounded, “What are you thinking about?” Hackett had been sitting on the side for almost five minutes, but this woman did not notice him. No one knew what she was thinking
Shocked, Sherri turned around and looked at the injured man in surprise. The corner of his mouth was bruised with a big crack. There were also many red marks on his bare arms.
He looked a little pitiful
Noticing the woman’s gaze, he pulled his sleeve and covered it a little. He asked in a questioning tone, ‘Are you in a bad
mood?”
He could tell that this woman was in a low mood. He had wanted to talk to her after being beaten up by his mother, but when he got his mother’s message, he felt complicated.
The video that Joy sent to Hackett was something she found online overnight. The content was a short video edited by a female streamer. She edited the entire pregnancy to birth into a short video to promote the hardships of a woman during
pregnancy. It was very touching
Although the person in the video was not Sherri Hackett knew it was not easy for her to be pregnant with a child. He even forwarded the short video to Trevon
He did a kind thing for once just because he felt that Trevon’s wife must not have been easy either.
At this moment, when he was facing Sherri, his mentality had changed. When he saw this woman sitting in a daze with her brows furrowed, clearly in a bad mood, he no longer wanted to tease her. He only wanted to comfort her and even hug her. Previously, he had boasted that he wanted Sherri to be defeated by his charm. Now, he had the idea of taking care of her…
However, Sherri wanted to scold him for being a busybody, but when she saw his injured face, she swallowed the words she wanted to scold and couldn’t help to say. “Did you fight?”
The atmosphere of this conversation was a little strange. This was the first time they were so harmonious and even cared about each other.
Hackett was also surprised. This woman asked about his injury. The corners of his mouth subconsciously curled up and pulled his wound, so he grimaced in pain. He cursed Trevon, “That bastard Trevon is too ruthless.”
Hearing this, Sherri was puzzled. Weren’t they good friends? Why did they hit each other so hard? Did it get ugly between them “You had a problem with him?” There was a hint of gossip.
Hackett’s hands were stretching large. He leaned against the chair and placed one hand on Sherri’s back. From afar, the two of them looked like they were hugging. “Thid something from lum, and he beat me up to vent his anger. What happened to you?”
Sherri did not want to tell him what her father had talked to her about. Since she could not get any gossip, she did not want to stay any longer just as she was about to get up, her wrist was grabbed. She sat back on the stool and turned around to glare at Hackett. “What are you doing? Are you looking for a beating again?”
He rolled up his sleeves high, revealing red marks. He held her wrist with one hand and was about to lift the corner of his shirt with the other. Seeing thus, Sherri hurriedly pressed down his hand to stop him. “Why are you acting like a hooligan in broad daylight**
Hackett was speechless. Why was his image in her heart so bad? “Come on! Im not being a hooligan. I was only showing you my injury.”
Sherri was dissatisfied. “Why are you showing me your injuries? It’s not like I was the one who hit you. If you get beaten up. it must be because of your impoliteness.”
Hackett pinched the space between lus eyebrows and did not continue to lift his clothes. “I wanted to show you, okay? Can
we talk?”
Sherri swayed her feet and said nonchalantly. “What do we have to talk about?”
“What do you think? Do you plan to strip me of my right to be a father for the rest of my life, or do you plan to find a stepfather for my daughter?”
Sherri was speechless. She choked and felt a little guilty because she had thought of finding a man who loved her and could accept her child.
Hackett began to ask soulfully, “Have you ever had a boyfriend?” Before Sherri could say anything, Hackett began to answer his question. That was the first time, so you’ve probably never had a boyfriend. Coincidentally, I’ve never had a girlfriend before. Think about it, and let’s give it a try.”
She knew what Hackett meant when he said that was her first time. Instantly, her ears turned red. This person indeed didn’t know how to keep a secret. How could he talk so explicitly in the hospital?
“What do you mean let’s give it a try? Why should we settle? Who are you looking down on?”
“Don’t tell me you had a lot of boyfriends in the past. Sherri, do you believe what you’re saying? Were you dating them at the psychiatric level and leaving your first time to me?”
Sherri knew that nothing nice would come out of his mouth. She was so angry that she reached out and hit Hackett’s arm repeatedly, hitting his wound. It hurt so much that he frowned. However, he still endured it and did not pull his arm back “Are you done venting your anger? If you’re done venting your anger, let’s continue chatting. Are you afraid you’ll fall in love with me during the test? Otherwise, why aren’t you willing to try it?” Hackett had figured out Sherri’s personality after eating pizza last time. This woman could not be challenged. She fell for it with a few words as long as she was stimulated. As expected, Sherri inmediately said, “You think I’ll be afraid of you? Who do you think you are? I thought you would fall in love with me.”
Seeing that his plan had succeeded, Hackett smiled smugly. “Then let’s give it a try and see who loses first”
Sherri said proudly, “I’m afraid that you’ll love me to the extreme…
Before she could finish speaking, her mouth was covered by a soft kiss. She immediately withdrew as he undled smugly.

Sherri was speechless. She was di instantly to
