I am a Second Female Lead novel Chapter 74

After a few months. The possible meeting of both prominent families will be conducted at the Goori state after 3 months. Sheri earnestly sought her parents to resolutely refuse their talks. Sven arrived at her apartment together with her dad, mom, and Ric. They looked at Sheri. Sheri never knew that the Devon wanted Sheri so bad that he is doing everything to push through the marriage talk. He was so persistent that also the grandmother wasn't able to do anything to stop him. Nevertheless, she was happy because it was the first time she saw that his grandson wants to settle down.

On Hoal mansion Sheri is looking at her brother.

"Sheri, we know you don't want this, and we also don't want this, but We are being pressured to every side," Sven said.

Her dad frown and the rest of the concerned family.

"Honey, we can't refuse them, but we can talk about our feelings," her concerned mom said.

Ric on the other side is so angry. The Goori has been hinting about the stock of the Hoal family and how they already know the overseas company of Sheri.

"We have no choice but reluctantly agree on this meeting, and we will just tell them what we think," her father said.

Sheri on the other side is in a dilemma.

She wanted so bad to run away. Where can she go? After the talked they leave.

Leaving Sheri alone in her apartment.

Sheri sigh.

It's almost a week that her parents were pressuring her to at least reconsider the invitation of Eric. He indeed is the one who carries her to the hospital.

Sheri had solemnly promised her self to constantly listen to her parents even if it is against her will and this is the odd moment of the personal fulfillment of the promise.

Sheri barely agrees and wholly accepted she will do it this once only, and she will make sure to go abroad to enjoy a long vacation.

Eric insists on naturally picking her up in her apartment and Sheri didn't make it hard for him. She will experience this once only. But she said he has to wait for him downstairs of her apartment.

Sheri dressed up in a V-neck 3/4 sleeve high low party dress with a black pump and black bag clutch.

When Eric saw her walking elegantly in the stairways his world didn't move. He can feel his heart raised and beats so fast. When Sheri arrived in front of him. Sheri has to wave to gently wake him up.

"Ahem... my excuse." Eric went instantly and gently opens the door for her. He felt his face turn red and become a hot potato.

Sheri on the other side was amused.

On the way to the gourmet restaurant. In the middle of the moonlit road. The tires of Eric's car went gradually deflated. Eric was unhappy about it. He went out and saw that the front two tires were deflated.

Sheri went out as well.

When Eric was calling for someone to come and get them. A Maybach car arrived and stop in front of them.

"Trouble." A masculine voice speaks.

Eric brow's knitted and Sheri was stupefied. "A peculiar coincidence or what." Sheri thought.

Devon came down from his car and smile toward Sheri. It's a scary smile. Sheri felt like she was being caught having an affair in which it typically causes her to be stiff and instantly dismiss that feeling.

"You look beautiful. How about I will bring you guys to your intended destination." Devon said.

"Mr. Goori what a coincidence. That's nice of you but I already asked someone to come and pick us up. " Eric said, and he strode toward Sheri and clasps her waist.

Sheri was awakened when she felt a strong arm in her waist.

"What the..." Sheri said while looking at Eric.

Devon didn't stop smiling radiantly. He even smiles more.

"Mr. Copper, I think She's not yet yours so get your hands off her, " Devon bluntly said.

Sheri can feel the intensity of both of them. She is hungry and tired. It seems her luck is on her side when she saw an empty taxi almost passing them.

Sheri makes a whistle typically using her fingers and the Taxi stop. In a minute Sheri went in and told him to go.

The two men were shocked.

When the taxi of Sheri went away Devon suddenly hysterically laugh walked toward his car laughing and gently shaking his head at the same time. Leaving Eric dumbfounded.

Sheri went to a nearby KFC. When she walks in, everyone was looking at her. The men instantly start to ogle her while the woman was trying to see what brand of clothes she wears.

After getting her order she went and sits down near the window. She was supposed to start biting her first chicken when a group of men came.

"I only want to eat. Why can't these people leave me alone?" Sheri thought. She put her chicken down and confronts them.

"Gentlemen, how may I be of help?" Sheri asked.

"What does a beautiful lady doing in a cheap place like this? How about I properly treat you somewhere nice." The man said.

Sheri sigh. She was thinking this night will be a long night. She was supposed to stand up and knocked the person in front of him when suddenly A tall man, with 20 bodyguards following him walked leisurely toward Sheri's table.

Sheri stop of what she was supposed to do. When she saw him.

"She's with me, " Devon said. The men turn around and saw a man with 20 bodyguards following him.

They immediately depart. Devon leisurely sits down where the man sits before and his men turn around and instantly surround them. Sheri was doing a mantra in her head all the time.

Sheri saw a young boy in uniform trembling while passing them a tray of food. Sheri's one eyebrow starts to twitch.

She's thinking she might develop a distinct syndrome of eyes twitching every time she saw him. She smells at the piece of meat in front of her and recalls the reason why she came there.

She was starving. She intentionally disregards everything and instantly starts to eat.

Devon on the other side was amused by how she eats nonchalantly. Looking at her eating make him also hungry. Both of them eat silently.

After 20 minutes of eating.

She recalls Devon was eating together with her. She carefully cleans her hands and sighs. She put her hand under her chin. Sheri observed the man in front of her.

Devon looked at her and smile,

"Why are you doing this? Sheri directly asked. Devon gently wipes his hands and placed his two elbows on the table. He draws closed toward Sheri's face.

"The moment I saw you, there's something inside of me wanting to get closed and wanting to hold you. I knew that moment I want to be your man. I will do everything and every way to make you fall in love with me. If I have to follow you in Alaska or even in the north pole I will do. Ms. Sheri, I am head over heels in love with you" Devon openly confessed.

Sheri straightens her self and sighs.

"I'm sorry Mr. Devon to disappoint you but to tell you frankly I made a vow that I will not get married in this life. You are wasting your time on me. I advise you to find someone else. "Sheri seriously said.

"I will wait. I am a very patient man Ms. Sheri and I can wait even if it takes how many lifetimes." Devon said.

Sheri sigh. "It's your choice, Mr. Devon. Oh! Looked what time it is. I need to go home now so please excused me. I have to go." Sheri said, and she slowly stands up, gathers her purse and bid farewell at Devon.

"Till next time Mr. Devon." Sheri reaches her hand. Devon also reaches his. When they grasp together a sudden electric feeling hit Sheri.

She promptly pulls her hand and marched toward the door.

"What was that? Sheri thought to her self.

Devon looked at his hand. The electric and the soft hand that he felt invariably create ripples in his heart.

Sheri looked at the private taxi in front of the KFC, and she asked if he's on duty and was.

She went in and provides her direction.

After 20 minutes Sheri arrived at her apartment, and when she was supposed to pay, he said a man already paid him. Sheri was surprised, nevertheless Sheri gives him the money as a tip.

She went inside her apartment and starts her night routine.

The following weeks. She booked a flight going to their second home in Alaska. They have a small chateau house.

Her parents were happy she would have time for her self, so they also asked Sheva, Jany, and Lois to join her in which they were happy.

Arriving at the chateau, the sisters unpacked and went out for a drive.

Sheri was enjoying her bonds with her sisters.

One day the mechanical voice suddenly speaks.

"Host after 7 hours, you have to do another mission. Please prepare."

The mechanical voice said.

She acknowledges him.

"Thank you for instantly reminding me I almost forgot," Sheri said.

The whole day Sheri didn't leave her room she stayed there waiting for her next mission.

Times up host.

Sheri felt lighted and when she opened her eyes...
