Chapter 39: Chapter 39

Sherry yawned and stood up from the bed, she walked into the bathroom and showered before wearing some clothes.

She took her phone and checked for messages, she was shocked when she saw almost 50+ messages on her phone with missed calls.

Tara sent her 20 messages while the rest are from some of her high school mates who don't talk to her anymore.

She opened Tara's message and started reading.

"So you are Mrs Tony?"

"Fuck, i can't believe that I'm friend with the popular Tony"

"Hey are you there?"

"I was thinking that man who came to pick you up when you were drunk looked familiar but i wasn't sure"

"Damn, Girl i can't sleep"

Sherry smiled and started typing.

"Hi"

Her reply came quickly like she was waiting for her message.

"Damn, you are awake now?"

"Tell me, when did you get married to Mr Tony?"

"It is a month now"

"I'm so sad, you didn't even tell you are married, are we still friends?"

"Let's talk when we see, I'll explain to you"

"Okay, I'm waiting for you in school"

Sherry smiled.

She scrolled through the other messages.

Most of them were "Hi, hello, let's meet"

She didn't bother to reply to any of them.

Her mom or sis didn't call.

Her mom doesn't like watching news and Nancy also hates it, she prefers watching Chinese dramas.

Sherry put her phone into her bag and walked out of the room.

She didn't see anyone in the living room, so she walked out of the house and took a bike to school.

When she got to the school gate, Tara was already waiting for her.

Tara immediately walked towards her and held her hand.

"You are here"

"Yes"

They walked into the school together.

They went to the cafeteria first because Sherry was hungry.

"Now explain"

Tara said, Sherry started eating Tara was not eating because she already ate.

"It is a fake marriage, '' Sherry said nonchalantly.

Tara gasped in disbelief, "A fake marriage?" She looked like she didn't believe it.

Sherry nodded and took a sip of her water.

"Did his Grandma know about it too?"

"No, he just married me so his Grandma would not force him to marry the person he doesn't like, keep it a secret"

Tara nodded and put her hand on her mouth.

Sherry finished eating so they stood up and walked to the class.

Her course mates smiled at her, flattering her.

Sherry pursed her lips and didn't talk to anyone..

The title is not hers in the first place and they would divorce in a month when they divorce the people trying to please her will be the one to step on her later so she doesn't care about that.

Sherry went to sit down on her seat with Tara.

The lecturer walked into the class.

After the morning lecture, they did an exam for the last two weeks and the results were out.. The lecturer announced the result to everyone.

Sherry got full marks in all the subjects.

Her course mates admired her more.

Sherry was surrounded by many people, some tried to flatter her while some came to ask her questions they didn't understand.

"Sherry, can you take a look at this question? I don't understand it"

"Let me see" Sherry took the question and stared at it for a few seconds before quietly writing the complete solution step by step so the person can understand. Her handwriting was exceptionally beautiful just like her face.

She gave the solution to the person when she was done, "Thank you " the person thanked her sincerely.

She did not expect Sherry, who usually seemed aloof and indifferent, to be easy to get along with.

The students came one by one after seeing that she was actually nice.

"Sherry, i also don't understand this"

The students surrounded Sherry in a few minutes.. Only Vera was sitting down alone with two of her friends.

Vera gritted her teeth in anger, "She always seduce people wherever she goes"

"Vera, you should not offend her, she is Mrs Tony now" Katherine said casually.

Vera became more angry when she heard this, "What Mrs Tony? I'm sure he is toying with her and would dump her soon" her gentle face looked terrifying and vicious.

Everything was supposed to belong but that bitch snatched her spotlight away, She was the best student before Sherry arrived… She was flattered because of her powerful background and people always come to ask her questions when they don't understand but that bitch actually snatched all her crowns away.

She couldn't take this lying down but she couldn't offend Sherry too because of the man behind her.

She glared at Sherry with jealousy in her eyes.

She snatched her man too!

She had always liked and wanted to be Mrs Tony, she actually became Mrs Tony!

No Sherry has crossed her boundary just because she is beautiful and a little intelligent.

Sherry answered all her course mates, her hand was sore by now.

Tara smiled at her and console her, "Sorry"

Sherry nodded…

She didn't solve the problem so their impression of her would change but because she was trying to help and nothing else, she doesn't care if their impression of her changed or not.

That is their business not hers.

School ended soon.

Sherry and Tara walked out of the class.

They walked towards the gate together.

Sherry hailed a cab.

"I'll leave first" Sherry smiled at Tara and waved at her.

Tara nodded and waved back.

Sherry got into the car and the driver drove away.

She was going to visit her mom. It has been a while since she visited her because she was busy.

Her mom didn't even try to call her.

Sherry gave a bitter smile.

No one cared about her and she is already used to it.

Her mind started to wander.

All her mom cared about is money and it has always been like that since she was young, she thought she was busy that was why but it has always been like that.

She was sure her mom didn't even remember her birthday date.

But it was not like this before.

She recalled when she was four years old, her father was still with them then. On her birthday, her mom and dad bought a teddy bear for her. She was asleep and when she woke up she heard them singing her a happy birthday song and gave her the teddy bear.

What changed?

Was it because her father ran away with the savings and his mistress?

Even when she was bullied in school, she had no one to depend on.. She almost committed suicide out of frustration and Nancy was also young then, so they had to take care of each other with no one to depend on.

She also almost killed all her high school students who framed her by poisoning them… Once they died she would not be framed again and would have a peaceful life right? Then they should just die… She almost killed them, her mental health was bad and no one cared.

"We are here," the taximan said.

Sherry snapped out of her thoughts, she paid the man and walked into her mom's house.

The house was quiet, she was a little surprised because her mom doesn't have anywhere she always goes to.

She walked towards the backyard and was shocked by what she saw.
