Endless Adoration -
Chapter 28 Good Morning, Mrs. Mo
Startled by his sudden move, Sherri Leng widened her eyes and looked at the man who was only a few centimeters away from her. Her beautiful eyes were not as cold as before, but now they were as tender as water, and her thin pink lips were closed like roses. "Is he going to kiss me?" This idea popped up in Sherri's mind, and she was so shy that she didn't know where to look.
"Mrs. Mo, what are you thinking about?" Elliot Mo's voice was low and magnetic.
"I... I'm a little hungry.
"
"How about asking Kate to bring you dinner, okay?"
The last word "Okay" was extremely attractive, making people helplessly saying out the word "Yes".
Fortunately, Sherri was still rational in the end. She finally calmed down and was not bewitched by the enchanting man in front of her. "No, I remember that there is a sparerib rice downstairs of the hospital. It tastes very good, can you buy it for me."
After saying that, Sherri thought that the other party was the CEO of the company, who was in charge of tens of thousands of people. She was afraid that he would refuse her favor of this kind: "It's downstairs, very convenient."
Sherri looked at the man nervously to see if he would agree to her request.
"You like sparerib rice?"
Sherri nodded silently.
"Wait for me. I'll be right back." After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave.
Was he really willing to buy food for her?
Looking at the tall man in front of her, Sherri was a little moved.
Elliot was really nice to her. Sometimes she would really think that she was his wife.
"Be careful on the way."
Sherri pretended to say it casually towards the back of Elliot, but the more casual she was, the more concerned she was.
Thinking of Sherri who had been full of coldness for all her life and suddenly speaking out the words of "be careful on the way", Elliot was indeed full of happiness, he even raised the corners of his mouth complacently.
In this way, even Elliot himself did not know that he was smiling and leaving the ward. Along the way, he was so happy that made the hospital overflowed with pink hearts from the nurses.
"He's so handsome. I've only heard that there's no female creature within five meters around the CEO of the Mo group. Neither did I expect him to smile. Look at him!"
An intern nurse in her early 18's got an anthomaniac.
Another elder nurse beside them said, "yes, I also think that this little monkey is so handsome and extraordinary. But, only the same excellent person deserves such an excellent person." After saying that, the old nurse squinted at Sherri, who was in the opposite suite.
"Although the daughter of the Leng family is a little down and out now, but I still think that only a woman like Sherri can be described as the daughter of a rich family in city A, neither humble nor pushy! The rest are basically embroidered pillows, gold and jade outside, and losers among them!"
Despite their age difference, the two nurses had been gossiping for more than an hour. After tidying up their clothes, they went home happily.
For these small characters, when there was nothing else, gossip was also an extremely happy thing.
Elliot didn't leave the hospital until Sherri fell asleep. He went to Sean Shen and asked about the result of the investigation.
In a large pile of documents, Elliot found an old photo. In the photo, there was a smiling face of Sherri and a gentle girl next to her.
There was no problem with that. More importantly, there was a shy big boy standing next to these two girls. The more he looked at him, the more this boy looked like Harrison Bai.
For a moment, Elliot thought he had made a mistake, but the person in the photo was sure to be Harrison.
Sean stood behind Elliot, waiting for his orders at any time.
When he saw that Elliot was stunned for a second, Sean came up to him and said, "Mr. Mo, according to my information, I found that the girl next to Miss Leng is called Alice Gu, they used to be good friends." Elliot seemed to know why there was not much information about Michelle Leng and Janine Su found by Harrison. What a good boy.
Hearing that, Elliot got angry. Harrison had covered up the chief criminal.
"Find out what's the relationship between these people?" Elliot ordered coldly.
Sean knew what Sherri meant to Elliot. Sean was very smart, that he had already guessed that something must have happened between to Sherri and Mr. Mo in the past. If Mr. Mo fell in love with her at the first sight in the cafe, Sean would never believe it.
Thinking of this, Sean didn't show it, but quietly left to investigate the matter of Harrison.
After Sean had left, Elliot still didn't leave.
It occurred to Elliot that when he found Harrison, he welcomed him in naturally. However, when they talked about Sherri, his expression changed subtly, because Elliot was worried that Sherri would be in danger later, so also didn't take it seriously.
Now it seemed that he was too careless at that time.
"What's the relationship between you and Harrison, Sherri?" Elliot decided to go to the hospital to ask Sherri about it tomorrow morning.
The second morning, Elliot came to the hospital with something on his mind. On the way, he considerately packed up the crab roe bun, which was Sherri's favorite.
He was very angry at the fact that Harrison lied to him. He would be even more unhappy if he let Sherri starve.
Arriving at the ward of Sherri.
"Good morning, Sherri. Have you got up?"
When Elliot entered the ward, Sherri had already woken up and was thinking about the cause of her parents' death.
Thinking of her father's love for her, Sherri felt a little depressed.
Elliot walked to the side of the bed and said, "Sherri, what are you thinking about again? Tell me, are you hungry now?" Then he took out the crab meat bun in his hand. Sherri felt that Elliot was really nice to her. There would be many people who says "good night" to you within the world, but few people said "good morning" to you. Sherri silently took the steamed bun from Elliot's hand.
"Thank you."
Sherri regretted that she didn't mean it. She wanted to express her gratitude, but she always said in such a tone that no one was allowed to enter. Elliot had been with her for a long time. Knowing what she was like, he got used to the two words "thank you", but he was still a little disappointed.
After fighting within her mind for a while, Sherri made up her mind and took out a crab meat bag from her hand to Elliot.
Looking at the steamed bun that was fed to his mouth, Elliot was a little confused for a moment. However, in the next second, the steamed bun handed over by Sherri had been automatically eaten by him. "Very tasty." After saying that, he looked at Sherri as if he was flirting with her.
The expression on Elliot's face reminded Sherri of the time when she was in the office. Because she didn't deal with some documents well, she was the last one to leave the company.
Just as she was about to leave, the elevator rang. She had a feeling that it was Elliot, but Sherri still pretended to finish dealing with the documents.
At that time, she was not so familiar with Elliot, but he kissed her in the name of a couple.
At that time, Sherri was still a little angry. Now, seeing that Elliot ate steamed buns, she actually felt Elliot being a little cute.
She must be silly to think that Elliot was cute.
Looking at Elliot, Sherri burst into laughter all of a sudden.
When Sherri was stunned, Elliot was still worried that his meaningful smile just now would irritate her. Seeing her smile, he was relieved.
The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became ambiguous.
Elliot looked into Sherri's eyes carefully, clear and energetic.
Elliot recalled that it was because of such a pair of eyes that he didn't have too many distractions. When he was abroad, he let down his guard and let Sherri helped him.
It turned out that his original choice was really wise.
Elliot looked down from Sherri's eyes, from her nose to her ears, and finally stopped at her lips.
Thin and beautiful lips.
All of a sudden, something occurred to Elliot. He moved faster than he thought, and he leaned towards the direction of Sherri.
Sherri quickly put a bun into Elliot's mouth.
The steamed bun he bought ruined the good moment. Elliot laughed and said, "you reacted so fast this time!"
Sherri rolled her eyes at him.
"I'll let you go first and wait for you to leave the hospital." Elliot thought.
While eating the bun, Sherri looked at Elliot and asked, "have you eaten yet?"
Elliot didn't expect that Sherri would ask such a question. Seeing the steamed buns in her mouth, Elliot was also a little hungry.
"I've arranged for Sean to bring breakfast here, but I came first. It seems that he's about to arrive."
"Mr. Mo." As soon as Elliot finished his words, Sean's voice came from outside.
"Look, I've got stuff to eat," said Elliot, winking at Sherri.
Looking at Elliot in front of her, Sherri found it hard to believe that this childish Elliot was the person who had made a contract with her.
At the dinner time, Elliot seemed to mention it inadvertently, "Sherri, do you know Harrison?"
Hearing Elliot's question for no reason, Sherri was stunned. She didn't understand why he suddenly asked her this question. She thought for a while and decided to answer truthfully. With the shrewdness of Elliot, if she lied, he would definitely notice it, and then she would have to make up a lie to cover it up.
So Sherri admitted frankly, "we know each other and grew up together."
"Childhood playmates? Good relationship? " Elliot curled his lips slightly.
"Not really. Our parents have been friends for generations. That's how we know each other. I've always treated him as my brother!"
She almost blurted out these words. She didn't know why she was so anxious to explain. "It's just that our relationship is not as good as before."
"Why?"
With an expression of unwillingness to recall, Sherri said, "let bygones be bygones. Now I no longer have contact with him. He goes his way of life, and I'm still crossing my single plank bridge. That's good." "Humph!" Elliot snorted, "even if you don't want to disturb him, it doesn't mean that he won't do anything to hurt you!"
"What did you say?" Sherri looked at Elliot curiously.
He was a little angry, that's strange? Did Harrison offend him?
"Sherri, do you know who did this to you?"
With Sherri's head down and her eyes a little dim, she smiled bitterly and said, "who else can it be? Sam Leng or his daughter? Or Janine?"
Except them, who else in city A would be against her. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
