Chapter 25 It's No Longer A Contract
Chapter 25 It's No Longer A Contract
At this time, Sherri Leng slowly woke up and saw Elliot Mo beside her. Her first reaction was that she
was glad that he came on time.
When Sherri found that she might fall into a trap, the first person she thought of was Elliot.
Perhaps, in her eyes, she and Elliot were no longer in a contractual relationship. As time went by, the
relationship between the two of them were developing without their notice, without warning and
precaution.
God loved to make such jokes, but he was so kind that it was hard to believe.
When Sherri was at her most desperate and helpless moment, God sent the excellent Elliot to her side
with fairness.
Immersed in self-reproach, Elliot kept blaming himself for his mistakes and didn't find that Sherri had
woke up already.
When Elliot found that Sherri had woken up, he saw that there seemed to be tears in her eyes.
Before Elliot could react, Sherri hugged him and said, "I'm fine. You're here."
Because of this incident, Sherri was also hospitalized. Due to the strong effect of the drug, she needed
to pump her stomach and stay in the hospital for observation for another week.
Looking at Sherri's delicate sleeping face on the bed, Elliot couldn't help but touch her face with his
hands.
He always knew that Sherri was an independent and proud woman. She would never lower her body to
beg anyone, nor would she cling to anyone's position. Therefore, Elliot had always respected her and
did not intend to interfere in the grudge between her and Sam Leng.
But this time was different. In the past few months, Elliot had endured it again and again for three
times, but there would still be people who would constantly make trouble for Sherri, and even worse,
they would find someone to insult her like this, what a despicable thing to do. This time, he decided not
to give in.
If he couldn't even protect his beloved woman, how could he be a man!
Elliot ordered his men to investigate the whole thing and reverse the verdict!
Anyone who had being involved in this matter would not end up with good.
In the mansion of the Leng family, Michelle Leng was trembling with anger, or shaking with fear.
The news spread quickly. Elliot had sent someone to investigate the attempted rape of Sherri. Soon,
she and Janine Su would also be found.
During the whole day, Michelle was absent-minded. She was so anxious that she stood up and made
herself a cup of honey teapot, but the tea had somehow spilled over the cup and flowed onto the
woolen carpet.
"Michelle, what are you doing?"
Her sister, Melissa Leng's scream brought her thoughts back and forth. She looked at the tea in her
hand and hurriedly placed the teacup on the table, trying to find a handkerchief to wipe her left hand
which was stained with tea.
"Hey! Here you are! " "What were you thinking about just now, Michelle? So absorbed. " Said Melissa,
handing a silk embroidered handkerchief to her sister at the same time.
Taking the handkerchief, Michelle lowered her head and her eyes darkened, as if she wanted to say
something but stopped on a second thought.
Melissa frowned and looked at her sister curiously.
After a long silence, Melissa saw her sister's shoulder shake as if she was crying.
"Michelle, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? Did anyone bully you? "
As soon as Michelle raised her head, her eyes were red with tears. She said tearfully, "Melissa, I'm
afraid I've made a big mistake."
"You are Miss Leng of the Leng family. What mistake could you make?"
"I'm afraid I'll be in jail." Thinking of this, Michelle grabbed Melissa's shoulder and asked, "what should I
do? What should I do? "
Hearing that, Melissa felt a little painful. She gently gritted her teeth and said, "so what? At the worst,
you can give the police some money and be bailed out after a short time."
"No, no!" Michelle was on the verge of breaking down.
"Are you afraid that your reputation will be affected by this? Don't worry. It will be easy to suppress the
gossip of those reporters?"
"Melissa, you don't know."
Michelle put down her hand on Melissa's shoulder. Her eyes were glassy. She turned around and
collapsed on the sofa, as if she had spent all her strength, becoming ten years older.
Seeing her sister so capricious, Melissa knew that she had really caused a big trouble. "Michelle, what
on earth have you done? That's so serious. "
"It's him." Michelle's eyes were empty, as if she was answering the air.
"Who?"
"Elliot, he must know that I did it! I can't escape this time. "
After thinking for a while, Melissa remembered that recently, Elliot had been investigating the case on
Sherri in a high-profile way. She didn't know who was the mastermind. Seeing her like this, she
immediately understood, "Michelle, you didn't do that, did you? How could you ask someone to rape
Sherri? "
"No!" With a fierce look on Michelle's face, she shouted, "it was Janine who did it! It was Janine who
incited me! "
Melissa let out a long sigh. If Elliot really insisted on investigating this matter, he wouldn't do anything to
help even if the person behind it was the emperor of the jade kingdom.
If her sister was put into prison because of this, then Michelle would not be able to be released on bail
no matter how much money they have. The Leng family would also be condemned and be in the center
of the storm.
The top priority was to stop Elliot from finding out the truth.
"Micheele, maybe someone can help us."
"Who? Who can help me? I'll give him as much as he wants? "
Hearing that someone could help her, Michelle's gray eyes lit up immediately.
"Harrison Bai, he is a famous lawyer. With his help, we will definitely get rid of the suspicion of you and
Janine."
Speaking of Harrison, Melissa couldn't help smiling.
"I remember him. He helped me when I fell into the water at the ball, but I remember clearly that he had
a good time with Sherri when they were still a child. Why would he become her enemy now?"
With a slight smile, Melissa said, "don't worry about the reason. I'll make an appointment with Mr. Bai
tomorrow to make sure that you and Janine are safe."
"My dear sister."
Michelle happily walked up to Melissa and held her hand. She took off the customized Cartire gold
bracelet inlaid with diamonds on her wrist and placed it on her. "I love you so much"
On the second day, Melissa called Harrison to make an appointment.
"Mr. Bai, I'm Melissa. Have you forgotten me?"
"Miss Leng, if you don't need any legal advice, I'm afraid we have nothing to talk about."
Harrison was still the same as before. It seemed that no one could interest him except for work.
Melissa had expected that Harrison didn't want to meet her. Fortunately, she knew his weakness.
"I don't know if it's a legal matter or not. I've found out the cause of Alice Gu's death. I don't know if Mr.
Bai will accept it or not."
Everyone had a thorn hidden in their hearts, and they were used to it, so they naturally didn't feel any
pain. However, someone would pick up the thorn and stab it hard into it again, making them so painful
that they could hardly breathe.
Alice was a thorn in Harrison's heart that he dared not to touch.
Hearing the words of "Alice Gu", Harrison was stunned for a few seconds.
"Miss Leng are you free today." Harrison said with a sneer.
Harrison had never had a good impression of people like Melissa.
To put it bluntly, except for Sherri, there is really no one good in the Leng family now, including the
father of Melissa.
However, as soon as the name Sherri was mentioned, Harrison would thought of Alice, who had died
already.
Noticing the change in Harrison's face, Michelle knew that she would succeed this time, because Alice
was too important to him.
Melissa had knew at that time that it was not Alice's wishful thinking to be with Harrison, because his
love for her has not been rooted either. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
At this point, only by mentioning the dead Alice could she save her sister and Janine.
Melissa knew how serious the matter was, so she didn't delay anymore and came straight to the point.
"At that time, Alice was extremely depressed, and then she was stimulated by some words of Sherri,
which made her even more extreme..."
Melissa said everything, even if only she knew whether it was true or not.
Although Harrison didn't believe the one-sided words of Melissa, but it was said it by Sherri herslef.
Harrison still remembers how disappointed he was with this legendary woman in city A when she said
it.
Sherri was the best friend of Alice, and he, Harrison, also admired her very much. But how could she
do such a bad thing.
Alice's death was a permanent thorn in his heart, and Harrison would never forgive the culprit, Sherri.
Harrison had lost his mind because of the death of his loved one. Melissa knew that only by taking
advantage of Harrison's hatred towards Sherri could her sister and that woman, Janine, be removed
from suspicion. After all, it would not be good to be entangled with Elliot.
"Harrison, now you know the truth. I have a small request. Will you agree?"
Melissa played with her own caution.
However, as Harrison was at the top of his anger, he could figure out what the woman in front of her
was playing. He was concerned about the matter of Alice, but he would never be led by this woman.
"If you are talking about what happened this afternoon, I think you can leave now, Miss Leng."
As soon as Harrison turned around, he looked exactly like Shura.
"Don't you know what Sherri means to Elliot now?" said Melissa not giving up.
Melissa tried to arouse Harrison's dissatisfaction with Sherri by evoking his hatred.
"Since both you and I don't want to see Sherri living a better life, then, Harrison, please let my sister
and the daughter of the Su family go. After all, they have the same enemy as you."
No matter how eloquent Melissa was, Harrison didn't say anything.
At last, Melissa began to speak hysterically, "have you really forgotten that Alice is dead?"
Melissa was afraid that if they dragged on any longer, her sister would end up in danger and she said,
"Harrison, Alice has left, but as the chief culprit, Sherri is still alive in this world. Don't you feel sorry for
Alice?"
