The Billionaire’s Regretful Obsession – Victoria Hale

Chapter 216 A Compensation "You want to use me?" Melissa raised an eyebrow. "How do I know you're telling the truth? So many people are dying to be Gilbert's wife." She didn't think Sherry was suffering. Marrying someone like Gilbert wasn't suffering-it was a blessing, even. After all, she was confident she could make Gilbert come home. A man who came home was a good man. Besides, Gilbert was caring. She'd seen it. All these years, he'd doted on Wendy just because of Julia. In the future, he'd treat her and their kids the same way. Sherry's biggest problem was obvious.

She didn't know how to charm men. She couldn't put on an act-say one thing and do another. Men were so easy to fool. If you acted like you'd done so much for him, even if you really hadn't done anything, he'd be over the moon. "Adam my case." ked into Adam later. She'd found out he was amazing-his win rate was gh. as extremely cautious. Collecting evidence in the early stages took a lot of time. But ne took your case, he'd definitely help you win. Adam was picky about the cases he took, often telling people to choose other lawyers.

But word was, the line of people waiting for him stretched two years long. If it weren't for Lucas, Sherry would probably never have gotten to meet him. Thinking about it, waiting a while was worth it-as long as she could win the divorce. Otherwise, with Gilbert and his team of lawyers, this divorce case would drag on for years. "What? Adam!" Melissa finally dropped her arms from her chest. "You really want a divorce?" Even Melissa had thought Sherry was just being dramatic-not really wanting to leave. 1/3 "Fine. What do you want me to do?" "Keep an eye on Julia.

Report everything she does to me. I'm sure after working for the Bodes for so long, you have your own spies." "If this is all it takes for you to get a divorce, then no problem." Melissa's steps became lighter as she left. "Oh, and that project you invested in? It's profitable now. I'll transfer the money to your account later." Sherry stopped her. "Transfer it to this account instead." She gave Melissa an account number. "You're giving the money to Lucas? Aren't you working at his company?" Melissa looked at her suspiciously. It was like she was saying, "Did you buy your job? But Mr.

Harrison definitely doesn't need that little money." "Earlier, he said he had a project. He let me invest in it and gave me dividends. I at least need to pay him back for the investment money." Sherry couldn't get in on this for free. Even though Lucas had said he used her name and the logo she drew-as payment for the copyright, as an amateur artist, her work wasn't worth that much. Yet she'd gotten so much in retur ping d the dividends for the past three months. ly made nearly ten million. that money made her feel guilty. "So from now on, transfer it to this card." Melissa took it.

He really doesn't need your money. But she didn't care about other people's business-as long as Sherry honestly handed Gilbert over to her. "Fine." It was already late by the time Sherry finished packing, She slept there for the night, planning to leave directly the next day. But Henry contacted her. "Make it quick. I'm going to eat and then leave." 2/3 Sherry wasn't nice to Gilbert's friends either. Even though he'd saved her a few times, his mistake had made her body so weak before. Especially the last two doses of medicine-they'd been way too strong.

As the doctor who prescribed them, Henry had indirectly hurt her too. "This is medicine for you," Henry explained. "It's good for your body this time. A compensation for my mistake." Henry was actually good enough to work at a big hospital in King City. But for various reasons -his friendship with Gilbert, plus the Webb family's connections-he'd stayed here. Sherry took it without hesitation. She wasn't worried the medicine was harmful. As a famous doctor, if Henry's medicine hurt her, it would ruin his reputation. "Wait. There's something I want to say," Henry said.

"I know you probably don't want to hear this. "But I need to tell you-the biggest problem between you and Gilbert is that neither of you is willing to back down. bborn too. Even though you've always been in a weaker position, you refuse to bow when things go wrong. ert-his values were all shaped by his family. He used to be a really good person. ce, he was very kind. No matter who it was, he'd go all out to support them and be good to them. He got hurt a lot because of that. "Actually, the Bodes had another child-older than Gilbert by a few years. He passed away unfortunately.

"The Bodes put all their hopes on Gilbert. In the end, they started controlling him more and more strictly. But I've always known-the Bodes are selfish. They use the word 'love' to get what they want..." 3/3 admin
