A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 75 Weird Dinner

Sherry felt very constrained, uneasy, and nervous. It was like the night five years ago. She felt scared and hesitated. Suddenly he was longing for that initial feeling with her. To think that a woman who gave herself cleanly to him could cause him to long so much for her!

"I'll go and see how the kids are!" Sherry didn't want to feel so awkward. She always felt very constrained when she was with him. After saying this, she practically ran away from him. A sharp look glared at her back as if he could look straight into her heart. His gaze locked tightly on her back view causing Sherry to tremble even more.

After playing, eating, and drinking in the amusement park for an entire afternoon, the kids became tired.

"Let's go home!" Sherry looked at the day and it was starting to get dark. She had to go to the supermarket to buy some more groceries as there were four people eating tonight.

"That's great! We can go to eat Auntie's cooking!" Sammy was the first to yell happily.

"But you already ate the entire afternoon!" William was dumbfounded.

"But they don't taste as nice as Auntie's cooking!" Sammy said.

"Then let's go back quickly!" William felt that they were like a family!

The car stopped at the supermarket, "Mommy, let's go and buy the groceries together!"

"Okay! Slow down!" Sherry shouted.

As they got out of the car, a lot of people looked over with envy. The security guard even said, "Sir, madam, your twins are so cute!"

Sherry was stunned, smiled awkwardly, and didn't know what to say.

William calmly replied, "Thanks!"

The two kids went to get the trolley while Sherry and William walked behind. He leaned nearer to her, "It would be great if Sammy and Dan were twins!"

She looked at him at the same time as he did. Suddenly she felt as though she fell into his dreamy eyes. Her heart jumped and she admitted that his eyes were very attractive. "That's totally delusional!" Sherry laughed, "They don't even look alike!"

"Fraternal twins! Next time we can say that they are fraternal twins! I find that Dan increasingly looks like you as he grows up!" William winked at her.

Sherry smiled momentarily, "Yes, we look alike. A lot of people said that Dan looks like me. I have a very common look."

He was totally speechless! He had some doubts within him. Logically speaking, Sammy should look more like her. Why did Dan look more like her than Sammy?

At this moment, the phone rang suddenly. William took out his cell phone and said to Sherry, "Go ahead, I'll take a call."

"Okay!" Sherry went into the supermarket with the two kids. A lot of people were envious of her when they saw the two children with her.

"Sammy, what do you want to eat?" Sherry asked as she browsed.

"Anything will do, as long as it was cooked by auntie!" Sammy said obediently.

On the other side, William received the call.

"Master!" The caller said.

"Go ahead!"

"The results of the investigation are out. Ms. Murray indeed picked up a child and in these five years, she didn't live with a man. Her records were very clean! Daniel is five years old and based on the time, he can't be born by Ms. Murray!"

William nodded, "Are you certain she had never given birth to another child?"

"Yes, absolutely certain!"

"Okay!" William nodded, "Send the detailed report to my office tomorrow!"

After ending the call, his gaze shifted to the fresh produce area and at the three of them. There was a trace of tenderness in his eyes and he felt very surprised that this simple life was actually what he desired! He rushed forward and saw Sherry staring at some French beans.

"Buy this? How about this? This is the best!" William picked the one which was the most expensive.

Sherry slapped his hand, "No, not this. We'll get the ones on discount!"

He was puzzled.

"Uncle, there are vegetables on discount! We always buy discounted vegetables. You aren't frugal. Mommy doesn't like anyone who wastes money!" Dan explained.

William's heart ached. Had she been buying discounted vegetables?

Eventually, they bought William's choice of the freshest and most expensive because he will be paying for it. He started to grab a lot of groceries and then a bunch of snacks for the kids ignoring Sherry's objections.

When he opened the boot of the car, Sherry saw a huge box and that box was very familiar.

She was stunned for a moment.

William looked over and saw Sherry's expression. He felt strange initially but then understood. He looked at the box and said, "I don't understand how some people think to have her child sell adult items!" She was deflated and didn't know how to respond. But she also didn't want to appear weak, "You are also not a decent person to buy so many!"

When they were having dinner, the doorbell rang suddenly. Sherry was surprised as to who could visit them at this hour. She went to open the door. Suddenly a bouquet of fresh flowers greeted her and then a handsome face emerged from behind the flowers, "Sherry, they're for you!"

Sherry was stunned, looked directly at Liam's moist eyes, and said in a low voice, "Liam, what brings you here?"

Liam gave Sherry the bouquet of champagne-colored roses and said tiredly, "I'm here to score a dinner, why? Don't you welcome me? I'm so tired these days. I'm not sure what Will is up to and didn't come to the office these few days. All the work had worn me out!"

After saying, he barged into the house.

In the house, three faces were all looking towards the door.

"Ah, Will! Why are you here?" Liam's body trembled and shook away all his fatigue. He saw William staring gloomily back at him.

William looked at the surprised look of Liam and then at the champagne roses in Sherry's hands. William felt like his heart was smashed with a huge rock. He was frustrated and couldn't get his words out. After a while, he slowly said, "Then why are you here?"

Hearing William's response, Liam thought about his heartbreaking outcome. He looked at William and said, "Will I work until now if Mr. Rowland didn't expect me to work overtime? I'm sick of the food at the cafeteria so I came here to eat!"

After a cold scoff from William, Liam walked over to the table.

"Uncle Brooks, come sit down next to me!" Dan already ran over to pull a chair for Liam.

Liam looked at the two kids and was puzzled, "Sammy's here as well? This looks like a family dinner!"

"How do you do, Uncle Brooks!" Sammy stood up obediently and greeted Liam.

"Liam, I'll get you a set of cutleries!" Sherry placed the flowers on the cabinet.

William unconsciously looked at the flowers and found them very glaring.

"Please take a seat, Uncle Brooks!" Dan smiled and his beautiful round eyes turned into the shape of two crescent moons, "Uncle Brooks, this is the first time mommy received flowers from a man!"

As he said, Dan looked at William. His message was clear: Uncle, you silly fool! Don't you know that you need to give flowers if you want to woo my mother?

"Sit." William looked at Liam calmly but in his calmness was fury and Liam could see the daggers in his eyes.

Liam had seen this numerous times and didn't feel untoward about it. But under these circumstances, Liam thought, that it might be inappropriate for him to give Sherry those flowers. "Liam, here you are!" Sherry gave him the cutleries.

Liam said, "I'll wash my hands." He remembered that he should wash his hands before a meal.

The two kids were eagerly waiting for Liam while William started to be deep in thoughts. He took out a cigarette, lit it, and began to smoke.

"Daddy, we're going to eat!"

"Yeah! Uncle, can you not smoke when we eat?" Dan said caringly, "It's not good for your health. Uncle Brooks doesn't smoke!"

That meaning was clear. That he had one more bad habit compared to Uncle Brooks!

William took a smoke and was conflicted. He was wrong either way! The cigarette was between his fingers and a trail of smoke rose into the air.

He put out the cigarette and raised his head to look at Sherry. He seemed to be thinking of something. After a while, he said calmly, "Okay! Uncle will not smoke!"

"Good uncle!" Dan patted William's back.

"Everyone's waiting for me? Apologies!" Liam emphasized his smile.

Sherry dished another bowl of soup for Liam and Liam took over the bowl from her and took a sip. The intense taste of pork ribs enveloped his taste buds. He looked at Sherry and said, "Your soup is as tasty as that made by a chef!"

When she heard, Sherry smiled and replied, "Liam, stop flattering me!"

"Really! Otherwise, I wouldn't come all the way to eat your food! Oh yes, Will, don't tell me you father and son are here for her food as well!"

"Uncle Brooks, Auntie's cooking is very nice. It has the taste of a mommy!" Sammy became more talkative.

Sherry swallowed her saliva and unconsciously looked at William. William pursed his lips and didn't say a word.

"The taste of mommy?" Liam raised his eyebrow, "This is the first time I hear this!"

"Doesn't Uncle Brooks also like Auntie's cooking?" Sammy asked doubtfully, "Otherwise why are you here?"

"Sammy, eat your food!" The sullen William suddenly spoke. His voice was very low but they could hear the cold gloominess in his tone.

"Scoundrel!" William's hand took a swipe at Liam's leg under the table but Liam dodged his move. William pretended as if nothing happened and continued to eat.

"Looks like you still have the moves even when you bury yourself at the office every day." After dodging William's strike, Liam said directly, "Will! When will you go back to work? I'm exhausted!" William glared sternly towards Liam and waved his hand, "Don't talk about work during meals!"

"Uncle is sick!" Dan said.

"Ah? Sick?" Liam raised his eyebrow, "What sickness?"

"Uncle has a cold!" Dan said again, "Uncle, the next time you have a cold you can stay at our house, my mommy will take care of you!"

"Kid, are you hoping that I fall sick? The next time if I catch a cold I'll also come and have your mommy take care of me!" Liam said loudly and winked at Dan.

Sherry quickly raised her head and saw Liam smiling mischievously at her, "Liam, Mr. Rowland had a fever! That's why..."
