Man, what's wrong with you? Chapter 68 He's Recovered

Steve drank his tea leisurely. Sherry looked out of the window while they both sat awkwardly in silence.

'If you're really heart set on doing this, I'll definitely tell Linda why you actually want to ask her out for
dinner," Sherry said after what felt like an age, breaking the silence.

In Sherry's mind, she thought that it'd be in Linda's best interests if she knew what Steve really wanted.
Sherry was worried though that Linda would be disheartened if she knew the truth.

Steve nodded and said, "Okay. Tell her the truth, then I will genuinely pursue her."

"Steve!" Sherry was so infuriated that she couldn't help but shout.

"Even if you do tell her that I'm just using her and I only see her because of you, she'd never believe
you. Even worse is that your friendship will probably be over,"

said Steve with an arrogant smile.

Sherry had never been so annoyed by Steve.

However, in Steve's mind, he thought Sherry was being unreasonably stubborn.

"Only an idiot would believe you," Steve further added.

Sherry was fuming. She got annoyed at Steve in the past but she never really hated him. As long she
didn't want to do something, Steve couldn't force her.

But now, Sherry was really beginning to despise him. She knew he wasn't kidding.

He was saying whatever he could to get what he wanted!

"What the hell do you want from me to let her off?" questioned Sherry coldly.



Steve leaned forward and looked into Sherry's fiery eyes. "It's easy. When I call you later, don't make
any excuses not to come."

"I'm too busy to go out with you," Sherry refuted immediately.

If She went out with Steve every day, she wouldn't get a second to work.

"Don't reject me when you're free. Or else, I'll just go find Linda then."

Sherry kept silent for a few seconds, sighed and helplessly nodded.

The war in the business world was complicated, but the emotional world was much more intense.

Sherry was way too conflicted now. She'd become something of a hot property with all the male interest
that she had been getting. It was best if she just hid her emotion to avoid getting hurt.

The more she repressed all emotion, the more attention she seemed to get.

Sherry was completely clueless as to when Steve started liking her.

She'd been hurt too many times so she wasn't going to let Linda, her good friend, get wounded for love.

Steve was inexplicably psychotic. Sherry could only imagine how many unsuspecting women fell into
his traps.

'I can't let anyone hurt Linda!'

Sherry told herself in her heart as she gradually clenched her fists.

The office door was opened with Linda striding in.



Raising her head, Sherry saw Linda having fixed her make-up. The elegant and radiant beauty of Linda
made Sherry feel upset.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting," said Linda apologetically, sitting down.

"Don't worry about it. It's my duty to wait for a beautiful woman like you," said Steve, not bothered.

Sherry scowled at Steve coldly.

Sensing her gaze, Steve looked away. He seemed to have forgotten his promise from a moment ago.

As Steve cut his steak, his hand shook. A piece of steak escaped him and fell on Linda's clothes.

Linda wore a new, black lace skirt to the office. This was the first time she wore it as it was a special
occasion but it was stained now thanks to Steve.

"I'm so sorry for staining your dress." Steve passed her a tissue in an attempt to help clean up the
mess.

Linda frowned. The dress was expensive and it was her first time wearing it. Anyone would be
distraught, but she still said calmly to Steve, "It doesn't matter."

Seeing this as an opportunity, Sherry said to Linda, "Since the dress is dirty, let's go home quickly to
change!"

Sherry couldn't bear to stay there for even a second more.

Linda pouted. Although she wanted spend time with Steve, she really didn't want to sit in this greasy
dress.

"I messed up your dress so let me make it up to you. After dinner, I'll take you to the mall," Steve said
apologetically.



Linda was elated hearing his words but used all her power to pretend she was fine and said, "I don't
think that's a good idea."

Steve shrugged and said, "I don't think so. It's my fault. I'll get you a new one."

Sherry's could feel her head start to ache. However Linda agreed, "Then I should thank you, Mr. Song."

They didn't eat much and went straight to the mall afterwards.

In the clothing shop, Sherry sat on the sofa and watched Linda choose the clothes one by one, while
Steve stood beside her to help her choose.

Didn't he say that he wouldn't trouble Linda anymore? Was he going to keep his promise?

Linda suddenly turned back and waved Sherry over. She walked over inexplicably and watched as
Linda handed her a dress. "This dress suits you. Go try it on."

Sherry was stunned. "Me?"

"Yeah, hurry up!" Linda ushered her into the fitting room.

Sherry didn't know what they were playing at, but she listened to Linda and went in the fitting room.

It was really rare for her to wear such a ladylike dress. It was blue and tightly hugged her body. She
exited the fitting room to the endless praise from Linda.

"This dress really suits Sherry. What do you think, Mr. Song?"

Steve fixed his eyes on Sherry, and couldn't look away from her beauty. "Sherry, do you like it? I'll buy it
for you!"

Sherry suddenly raised her head and stared at him. "My clothes didn't get dirty, and I don't need it."



"It suits you. It'll be a shame if you don't buy it." Steve ignored what Sherry said and insisted on buying
the dress for her.

Later on, he bought more dresses for Sherry, even more than the ones he bought for Linda.

Sherry cast nervous glances at Linda, fearing that Linda would figure out something was wrong.

However, the clueless woman didn't care about it at all. Linda even asked Sherry to try on clothes and
show Steve.

Steve bought them a lot of dresses, even though Sherry kept refusing. However, he kept saying, "It
suits you. It'll be a shame if you don't buy it."

When Linda went into the fitting room, Sherry couldn't stand it anymore. She rushed over, grabbed
Steve's arm and pulled him out of the clothing store.

"What are you doing? You promised that you'd leave Linda alone. Why aren't you keeping your word?"
questioned Sherry angrily.

Steve leaned against the wall and looked down at her angry face. "I'm not bothering her! Your friend is
enjoying herself shopping. I'm just helping her shop."

"Why are you buying so many dresses for me? I don't need them. Why are you buying them?"
questioned Sherry, folding her arms.

"These dresses all suit you. I like them," Steve replied with a smile.

"You are mad!" Stunned by him, Sherry couldn't find any word to say.

It was the first time she saw a man who liked to go shopping with a woman.



"You look even more beautiful in the clothes I picked for you. You don't need to look strong all the time.
I like you more like this."

"Who said that I wanted you to like me?" Sherry turned her head and barked at him in a low voice. She
then strode back to the store.

He suddenly pulled her arm back.

This time, Steve stood powerfully in front of her with his hands on the wall and looked down at her.

Sherry was stunned. She was so startled that she even breathed carefully. "What are you doing?"

This was the closest he'd ever been to her. He stared at her intently and studied every corner of her
face carefully. He faintly smiled and said, "Nothing. I just want you to stay with me a little longer."

In the store, he dared not to get close to Sherry because of Linda.

Sherry would cast cold and fierce glances at him if he even got relatively close.

"Linda is coming out. Let's go inside!" Sherry grabbed him by the arm to pull his hand away from the
wall.

Steve didn't care to move though. He sniffed softly and said, "You smell so good."

'What? It's summer now. I must be sweating. How can I still smell good?' she thought. She was never
one to use much perfume anyway.

"Stop talking. Let's get inside." Sherry ducked and got out from under his arms.

If Linda so much as saw them in such an intimate position, there'd be a world of trouble.



At the sight of Sherry trotting towards the store, Steve smiled with satisfaction.

Sherry didn't know why Steve and Linda were so obsessed with shopping. It seemed that they wanted
to buy everything they laid their eyes on.

Sherry didn't have any energy to say anything anymore. They seemed like they were nowhere near
finished shopping though. Sherry's mouth twitched in the mental agony. If they shopped any longer,
they'd be there till the mall closed.

"Steve, Linda can go back with me," said Sherry, as she forced Linda into a taxi.

Steve frowned and said, "Okay. You two take care and call me if anything happens."

"Okay, sure." Sherry closed the door of the car impatiently and asked the driver to drive away quickly.

A big smile spread across Linda's face from ear to ear. Sherry couldn't help but notice her enormous
smile.

Sherry was afraid that the silly woman would fall in love with Steve. It was truly ridiculous for Steve to
force Sherry like this!

Linda didn't think so at all. She just thought that time flew by and there was barely any time to talk to
Steve.

Linda thought that Steve absolutely adored her. She had heard that if a man had liked a woman, he
would love everything about her. That was why Steve was nice to her best friend too!

After driving Linda home, Sherry went back to her apartment, put those bags into the room, changed
into a dress and went out of the door.



Sherry looked at the time on her phone and saw that it was already half past nine. It was so tiring
shopping with those people. Jeremy was probably going to complain about how late she was going to
get to the hospital.

Fortunately, there was no traffic on the road and she arrived quickly at the hospital.

As soon as she arrived, she saw the open door to the ward. She was about to enter the ward when she
heard the conversation inside.

"You are fit to leave the hospital. How much longer do you want to stay here?" The voice sounded
slightly older, as if it was from his attending doctor.

"A few days more!" Jeremy replied casually.

"There are a lot of things to handle in your company. Are you sure you can handle them from the
hospital?"

"Sometimes you have to make sacrifices," Jeremy said meaningfully. Sherry frowned and wondered
what his plan was.

"Hehe! How about removing your cast? Aren't you uncomfortable?"

"You know it! Hurry up and put it on. Sherry will be here soon."

Sherry still hadn't entered the ward but instead listened to this damning conversation.

From their conversation, it seemed that Jeremy had recovered some time ago!
