I am a Second Female Lead novel Chapter 73

The following day, indeed Devon keeps on visiting Sheri together with his grandma.

Eric also came. In one rare case, Eric and Devon came simultaneously. Both men were standing and looking at each other. Sheri just came out of the bathroom. When she saw both of them she was frozen. Sometimes she felt that she keep on freezing up looking at the two men who always comes and visit her. She felt like their fate has intertwine that she has to endure meeting them all the time.

She looked suspiciously at the two men who are allegedly confronting each other with their aura. Emotional intensity can be felt in the atmosphere while looking at them Sheri starts to massaged her forehead. Luckily Sven and Ric arrived simultaneously with Jany.

"Mr. Copper, Mr. Goori. Pleasant you visit my little sister." Sven immediately said to break the cold and uncomfortable environment.

Sven and Ric paced toward the two distinguished gentlemen while not even greeting Sheri. Sheri twitches her corner of her mouth. Jany is the only one who walked leisurely toward her and eagerly embraced her.

Ric and Sven led the two men in the corner of the room.

The whole time Ric and Sven only talked toward Eric and Devon while Jany and Sheri were chattering on the other side of the private room. After a while Ric came toward Sheri smiling.

"Sis, me and the boys will go for a walk, take a good rest," Ric said soothingly while winking. Sheri properly understood their intentions and smiles gratefully.

The whole time they intentionally keep the two gentlemen away from her. Sven promptly invited them to have a drink both Eric and Devon agree. It was the first time they voluntarily agree.Sven was surprised when both at the same time wants to come. Ric, Sven, Eric, and Devon went out while Jany willingly stays.

"Sis. So who do you think is the best?"Jany asked while smiling and looking at the gifts of the two men in front of her.

Sheri just smile and didn't answer. She give the small box that Devon left and the box of chocolate that Eric left toward Jany.

Jany giggle when she receives them. She knows it is expensive or its very delicious the gifts that Sheri receives.

The day after, is the moment she is to be discharged. She naturally wants to go back home. While arranging her bag. Devon came with a flower bouquet.

Sheri was still for a moment because no one knows that she will be discharged. She makes sure that the two men doesn't know, and she makes sure that she will be so early to get out of the hospital. It is pass 6 in the morning, and yet she was surprised to see the person she doesn't want to see.

Devon is also still when he saw her ordinarily wearing a white dress. His hearts instantly start beating fast. He can't explain but every time he smells and sees her. His world stands still and his heartbeat, beats very fast.

He holds his chest.

Sheri's one eyebrow elevated while looking at him. She almost rolled her eyes toward him because she knew someone is monitoring her on the side. Perhaps the nurse. Those are her speculations. Nevertheless, she has to entertain her visitor.

" Mr. Goori, how can I help you," Sheri asked. In her mind, she's saying "How can I help you to stop seeing me."

Devon snaps out from his pleasant thought and turns red.

Sheri was stood still when she saw him blushing.

"Huh! Did I just see that? " Sheri thought while gently rubbing her eyes.

Devon cough out a little to stop himself from blushing. He felt like a teenage boy looking eagerly at his crush.

" I've heard from your mom that you will go home today. So I inquire your father if I could be the one to bring you home, and he said alright." Devon said.

Sheri twitches her mouth when she heard what he says. He is completely lying because she never told her parents that she will leave the hospital.

" Mr. Goori, that is so kind of you, but I don't think it's necessary. I have money and already ordered a taxi to pick me up." Sheri sarcastically said.

"Nevertheless, let me send you back home," Devon said.

Sheri sigh. She doesn't feel any fear nor scared toward them. She already decides this time it's different. This time she will focus on her family and her self. The fear, the trauma she had, perhaps was soothed during the time she was observing them, sincerely repenting of what they did. The man before her now is a complete opposite of what she knows about him. In her first life. She never really knows him. He only meets him 2 to 3 times and that's it.

She looked at him.

"Mr. Goori"

"Devon," Devon said.

"Alright, Mr. Devon. I am not interested in you. Why can't you get that? You are just wasting your time. Besides... " Sheri wasn't able to finish her sentence when someone knocks on her door.

"Come in," Devon said.

A woman elegantly dresses in a black pencil appeared. She has beautiful black hair, plumped lips, beautiful almond eyes, and well-defined body. She can be properly considered to be a model. She's simple and yet elegant. She moves so gracefully. She walked leisurely toward Devon. Not even caring to glance at Sheri who is leaning at the edge of the bed.

"Excuse me, sir, you have a call. This is in regard to the mutual Copper cooperation."

In a flip of a coin, Devon, gazed becomes serious.

Sheri, was then, tongue-tied. The face of the woman that she doesn't want to see appears before her. Besides that she was surprised that early in the morning she arrived and she knows where her boss is. Sheri was very impressive.

"Why are you here?" Devon angrily said. If it's not his grandmother's intervention, the woman before him will never be his secretary. His grandma controls the people who will be beside him and wherever he goes she has to be there.

"I'm... Sir.... This..." Janice stutter.

"Get out. This will be your first warning. " Devon angrily said.

Janice paled.

"Ye... yes sir" Janice replies while looking at Sheri.

"What are you still waiting for? Scram." Devon angrily said.

In no considerable time, Janice staggered to go out. Sheri was silent the whole time while leaning comfortably at the edge of the bed. After calming himself. She has so many emotions that running in her head when she saw her. All she can do at that time is bite her lip on not to be angry nor assault her. In this lifetime she didn't commit any wrong yet so there is no reason Sheri will assault her. While on daze.

Devon walked resolutely toward Sheri and seizes her bags. And walked toward the door.

Sheri was dumbfounded.

"Wa... Wait, that's my bag." Sheri said but Devon walked so fast.

Sheri was speechless and chased after him.

When she arrived promptly at the grand entrance of the hospital. Devon's black car is waiting. The driver went down and gently opens the door for her. Everyone in the hospital looks at the sleek car with 3 other cars on his back.

Sheri's bag has a journal. She must get her bag one way or another. She usually writes everything in case the system will erase the specific memory that was left behind.

"Damn you" Sheri angrily thought.

She went inside and was supposed to pick up her bag, but suddenly the driver carefully closes the door.

Because she was moving inside the car she was being thrown toward the brawny arms of Devon when the driver starts driving. Devon happily nuzzled her and smells her.

"You smell good," Devon said tenderly.

Sheri instantly pushed him typical a drama move. Those where in her mind.

"This is kidnapping Mr. Devon. You better stop the car now, or I will do something you will instantly regret." Sheri gently said. Devon can see in spite of the gentleness of her voice the displeasure.

"Ms. Sheri relaxed, I will just send you home. No more no less. Gilbert drives faster. You know where to go." Devon said.

The Driver looked at him and nod.

Sheri looked outside indeed it's the direction of her home. She calms her self. What is the use of protesting? She positioned her self far away from Devon. While Devon is itching to eagerly seize her and embrace her.

At the hospital. All the things that happened in the entrance of the hospital. Eric saw.

He parked his car and was supposed to go inside when he inevitably saw Sheri getting in. In a Maybach car. He knew that car, that is the car of Devon. He unknowingly grips so tight the flower his holding almost crushing it.

Sheri arrived at her apartment.

"Thank you, Mr. Devon and I hope there will be no next time." Sheri politely said.

Devon is smiling the whole time while looking at Sheri walking elegantly toward her apartment. She already knows that he knows where she live. Sheri doesn't kid her self when it comes to dealing with him because his capability is way more than knowing where does she live. She is acting polite and acting normal toward him because she doesn't want that he will be obsessed toward her. The more she will run the more they will chase her, and she doesn't want that.
