I am a Second Female Lead novel Chapter 97

****************Thank you for ms. IloveBluu25 for editing***********************

The next day, Sheri and the four girls went to the city. They have to use a speed boat and then a car just to arrive at the main city. As they roam around, they took their time buying jewelry and other things. Sheri, in the end, got tired and wanted to sit.

"Sis, you can wait for us at the Coffee de Delicieux".

"Okay then but don't take too long. Lois, are you coming?" Sheri looked at her other sister.

"Sis, you go ahead. I still want to buy something nice for Sven and Ric"

"Fine, I'll go then"

Sheri left the other girls and walked towards the coffee shop. It took her 10 minutes and took an empty table near the window. She ordered a latte macchiato and a piece of cheesecake. She didn't really care about the foods she eats whether it will make her gain weight. Her motto, for now, was to eat what she wanted and live the way she liked.

As she enjoys her snack, she saw Kenzo. He's wearing a T-shirt, normal jeans and boots. She stopped for just a second to take a look at him and then continued to eat. He sure is a hot guy but Sheri was never interested.

"Ms. Sheri?" Asked Kenzo who approached Sheri.

Sheri looked up and smiled. She thought that he would never notice her since she was a bit far from the entrance.

"What a coincidence Mr. Kenzo" she just nonchalantly replied.

"Can I have a sit?"

"Sure"

A few moments of silence after Kenzo sat down and Sheri was just focused on her food not minding about the other person on the table until she heard him chuckle.

"I think your sister sold you"

"Huh?" She looked up confused.

"One of your sister named Hanny asked me to meet her here because her laptop was broken." Kenzo chuckled and shook his head.

The realization hit Sheri as she understood what happened. She face-palmed feeling embarrassed for the first time.

"I'm so sorry Mr. Kenzo. My sisters act crazy sometimes."Sheri apologetically said. Deep inside she badly wanted to find her sisters right this moment and would definitely scold them a handful.

"Don't worry about it Ms. Sheri, anyway I won't bother you anymore," Kenzo said as he gestured to stand up but Sheri stopped him.

"Please, to make up for what my sister did, Can I treat you to a coffee or something?" Sheri didn't know what came to her stopping him but she asked anyway. Maybe she just didn't want to owe him something.

"As long it's free why not," Kenzo chuckled and sat back comfortably on his chair.

Sheri smiled, "of course"

They took their orders and as time passed, they were unconsciously having a good time together. Sheri's four naughty sisters, were of course hidden on a corner taking pictures of them and sent it to Sven.

Sven on the other side, couldn't believe it. He could see on the picture the genuine actions of her sister as she laughed with someone. Wanting to take a better look at the person, as he enlarged the photo, it gave him a big shock.

The person was Kenzo Vlam. He was the owner of one of the top oil producers in the world. They said he travels around the world doing different jobs. Sven's face showed worry. He cannot describe how he should about the situation.

His sister was attracting every single important bachelor in the world. This is not a good thing.

On the other hand, Sheri found Kenzo as a good guy. She was at first shocked when he said who was he and what he does. He is one of the richest but kind of a down to earth type of a guy. She can't deny that she enjoyed his company.

As they were to part ways, Kenzo looked back at her.

" I hope we can do this again some time,"Kenzo said.

Sheri laughed,"Sure!"

They exchanged numbers in the end. Not knowing that on a hidden side of the road, a camera flashes as photos of them were being taken.

Those photos were then sent to Devon. Looking at the photos, Devon immediately rushed out of his office and made a sudden instruction to fly to Alaska. His assistance was flabbergasted being left mid-air.

When Devon saw the person whom Sheri was with, he doesn't like a single bit of it. Learning all of Sheri's suitors, they were all prominent in wealth.

Arriving in Alaska, Devon went straight to Sheri's place but she wasn't home yet. Sheri was still with Kenzo. He dazedly waited outside crazily thinking he might lose her. This time, no matter what, he would not lose her.

It was already starting to get dark when Sheri and her sisters almost arrived at their home. Kenzo insisted on sending them back but she apologetically declined. Kenzo didn't insist but wished them a good trip on their way home.

Arriving at their small chateau. Looking from a long distance, Sheri saw a downcast Devon looking like a lost puppy.

Devon never noticed Sheri but kept on mulling on Sheri's picture with Kenzo. His emotion was messed up.

Sheri's sisters looking at the situation were supposed to make fun of her but stopped feeling that this wasn't the right time to do it. They knew better not to provoke Devon.

They came closer and was about to greet Devon but the atmosphere suddenly felt intense. They rushed inside the house leaving Sheri alone with Devon.

As the four girls disappeared, Sheri approached Devon.

" Mr. Devon...." Sheri was supposed to ask the reason he suddenly appeared but was cut off by a soft and gentle voice.

"Are you and Kenzo .." Devon stopped his question not knowing how he would react about her answer.

Sheri almost wanted to laugh looking at Devon in such a manner. Who would have thought that a man in his caliber could be seen as a lost puppy.

She saw that his clothes were not well-ironed like he rushed just to come to where she was.

"Is that the reason why you came here? Was it to ask me that?" Sheri frankly said.

Devon looked into her eyes. Sheri was thinking of teasing him more but stopped herself when she saw how his eyes were. It was red like he would cry any moment now.

"What if I said yes," Devon said.

Sheri gently massaged her forehead.

"Mr. Devon, I think you really didn't hear me when we were at KFC. I said that I don't have any plan to get married in this life." Sheri firmly said. No matter how the person changed like Eric or Devon or even the new guy Kenzo, She already made a decision that she would happily live her life. After making sure that her family was secured, she would travel the world, do some charity work or anything useful. She was already firm with her decision.

Hearing her answers, his spirit was lifted and immediately hugged her.

Sheri was flabbergasted. 'Huh, what did I say?'

Sheri curiously asked herself by his sudden action.

" I am glad.. " Devon was pleased and felt the warmth spread on his heart. He barged inside the house which surprised the other four girls. They noticed that he was happy but they cannot see their sister's reaction.

Devon enthusiastically entered and they drew a conclusion that Sheri accepted him.

"I will give one hundred thousand each for you guys to let me stay here," Devon announced towards the four girls.

They were shocked but soon agreed.

"Mr. Devon, wait.... " She was supposed to disagree but then her sisters surrounded her and congratulated her.
