Loving The Wrong Man CHAPTER 12
“Hardy, you're finally here!” His mother heaved a sigh of relief when she saw him appear. “Thank God, you've finally arrived. We have been waiting for you for so long and were worried sick. Why didn't you call us if you had an emergency?”“Edward, he managed to come here. Naturally, he understands that nothing is more important than today's engagement. The ceremony can begin now.” She kept defending Hardy as she spoke. Edward's expression began to soften.His wife followed behind Hardy and lowered her head. She walked slowly from the moment she entered the hotel and kept a distance from him. Everybody's gaze fell on Hardy at that moment and only a few people had noticed his mother.No one thought much about the reason behind Hardy's delay in arrival.“Huh, he actually came. Honestly, I think it's understandable if he didn't show up due to Cherry's qualities.” Stanley quipped from the third floor and raised his eyebrows. “As a woman, it's fine if you're stupid as long as you're good-l

Cherry blinked and appeared to be taken aback. She did not seem to understand what Hardy meant and did not show any reaction."What are you talking about?" Hardy's mum was flustered. "Today's the day of your engagement with her. Don't fool around."Meanwhile, Edward's face darkened which made him look terrifying."Cherry, you don't actually like me and the person that I like isn't you." Although his plan had been foiled, Hardy still said what he meant."The one whom I like is Nelly and she is the one I wish to marry." As soon as Hardy said that, he knew there was no turning back. As a matter of fact, he did not want to turn back.Nelly looked shocked and lifted her head at once. She looked at Hardy with fear and pain. "No, no, no…"She shook her head violently and shuddered as she stepped back slowly. Her reactions were perfect."You… You want to marry Nelly?" His mother was dumbfounded."Yes," Hardy replied with determination and without a moment's hesitation.Her gaze shifted. This
Loving The Wrong Man CHAPTER 14
Nelly eyed the brutish man knowingly. She originally planned to lead Cherry into making false remarks. At least Grandpa would not be so hell-bent on maintaining the family's reputation if that happened.The matter would eventually be left aside and Cherry's dignity would forever be tarnished.However, Nelly never expected her grandfather to call the police."Don't… Don't call the police! I made a mistake earlier. I have nothing to do with Miss Cherry and I don't know her. My mistake, my mistake." The man immediately understood Nelly's look and laughed while he attempted to flee.The whole incident was arranged by Nelly. She wanted to exploit Cherry's stupidity and incapability of defending herself.She also wanted to make up a piece of evidence but Cherry escaped in the end. The brutish man took two steps back before being blocked by the hotel's security guard."It was a misunderstanding, I mean it! I mistook her for someone else. The woman I was talking about isn't this but she shar

“She went to Bewitching Moon Beauty Parlor at 8.10 and left at 11.43. I've been to Bewitching Moon, questioned the employees and investigated the CCTV footage. No problem.” However, what The Fly said next contradicted with a particular person's expectations.Still, Larry was aware of The Fly's capabilities. The Fly would not make a mistake.Last night, the woman jumped into his room at around nine, and from nine to one, they were…“I say that can't be Cherry” Stanley stood near him and overheard The Fly's words clearly. “Larry, I think there's no point wasting time on Cherry.”“I've found out all the women whom Henry knows. Cherry and Henry have met once, which was the time when both families were discussing Hardy and Cherry's marriage. However, Henry left after five minutes and that was the only time they met each other. From that day onwards, there was no contact between Cherry and the Max family. On the other hand, Hardy visited her family several times, but he was looking for Nell
Loving The Wrong Man CHAPTER 16
Cherry was extremely frustrated. She was so frustrated that she wanted to bite someone. Fiancé?! Was he not afraid of being punished for telling a lie this big?“Her condition is a bit complicated.” Dr. Stead brought out a stack of files and flipped them open.Complicated? She could either be seriously ill or she could be faking it. Larry felt that it was the latter.Larry directed his gaze towards Cherry who was still within the separated space. He noticed that she sat quietly and stared blankly into space. There was no expression on her face and neither was there any reaction from her.His lips curved into a subtle smile. He wanted to see how long she could fake it.“Her illness was a result of what occurred during her childhood. There's nothing wrong with her cognitive development but due to an accident that traumatized her as a child, she defends herself by locking away her self-awareness. She doesn't use her wits and doesn't think. She has shut herself away even more since she wa
Loving The Wrong Man CHAPTER 17
Cherry walked away smugly as she overheard the increasingly inquisitive questions from the crowd. Nelly refused to answer but occasionally, gasps could be heard.In five years, Nelly became the No. 1 socialite of the City, and had mastered her ability in acting. Cherry's lips slowly parted into a subtle smile. Her younger sister's meticulously crafted plan was about to fall apart.Five years have passed and she was no longer the shy, awkward girl from long ago. Not many people now could conspire against and try to harm her.Nelly was not skilled enough to do so.Cherry had earlier driven to a shopping Mall on her own and parked her car in the basement parking level. She walked into the elevator.Perhaps everyone had gone to watch the commotion because there was no one else inside the elevator.However, the elevator doors slid open again just as they were about to close.Larry entered and was followed closely behind by Secretary Leo.Secretary Leo let out a quiet sigh. The President wa

Cherry hung up immediately. If the conversation were to go on, Queen could have probably scrubbed her clean and sent her to somebody's bed.However, based on Queen's investigation, it could just be a coincidence.Maybe it was all in her head.The next day, pieces of news about the two Young Ladies of the West family plastered all over the headlines again, but it was slightly different this time around. The City's No. 1 socialite, Nelly, was accused of ignoring sisterly ties. Her elder sister who had just recovered had been harassed, yet she hid in a corner as an onlooker.On the other hand, things had taken a positive turn for Cherry, who had always been shamed and bashed by the media. Many reports described how innocent, naive and pure she was.Innocent? Naive?Larry snorted gently when he saw these descriptions."I heard Edward has organized a banquet for Cherry West. In fact, it's a matchmaking banquet, and it'll be held tomorrow. Stanley is also invited." Secretary Leo pretended
Loving The Wrong Man CHAPTER 19
Within a split second, changes could be observed in the expressions of a few people.The waitress was guilty and afraid; Nelly waited anxiously; Hardy was caught in a struggle.Larry's expression remained unchanged, but his gaze was fixed upon Cherry. Nevertheless, since the incident at the parking lot, he looked at her without the usual sharpness and intimidation in his gaze so that she would not notice him.“Larry, the Coke is obviously spiked. I'm worried that if she drinks it…” Stanley was worried.However, Cherry did not drink it. At the following moment, she moved the drink away from her mouth.Nelly met her gaze and her heart skipped a beat. Cherry was clearly smiling, but her smile sent a shiver down her younger sister's spine.Larry's lips parted into a grin. Indeed, Cherry did not let him down.“Has she noticed it?” Stanley was a bit puzzled when he saw Cherry's reaction. Then, he got excited again. “Since she has noticed it, what will she do? Will she force the Coke down Ne
