Chapter 244: Chapter 244 Sherry Jones’s Best Girlfriends!

Translator: 549690339

Sayon, Weiden Family.

“A little church on the Bund?”

Noah Weiden, who received the news, had a playful smile on his lips: “White Mitchell has a good taste in choosing his place! Well, we will have the priest there pray for him!

Let the brothers rest for the next few days, and let White live a bit longer.

On his wedding day, we will celebrate him. I want to make his wedding the funeral for him!”

Understood!

The man standing next to Noah Weiden responded respectfully, and then left Noah’s side.

Having heard Noah’s words, Snowden Jones showed a fierce look in his eyes, blaming White Mitchell for his impending doom!

Elsewhere, as Snowden gave Noah the news, White Mitchell was on his way home, carrying Sherry Jones at a leisurely pace.

All the way, Sherry buried her head in his chest, not saying a word, creating a somewhat uncanny calm within the car.

At first, White thought Sherry was angry at him because the Jones Family’s offer was declined.

However, after asking her, he found out that the true reason Sherry was so silent was her guilt.

This foolish girl thought she was bringing trouble to White and could not help him at all, considering she was just a burden to him.

When White found out, he couldn’t help but feel a pang of pity for Sherry, yet he also found the situation ironically funny.

If someday, Sherry learned about his identity, would she, recalling today’s events, find it as laughable as he did?

White smiled at the thought and then began to comfort Sherry. It wasn’t until they reached home that he managed to calm her down.

Afterward, they went home together.

However, as soon as they returned, Sherry stood still at the entrance, looking stunned at the two recognizable silhouettes sitting in the living room.

“Beryl?”

“Mr. Mill?”

Seeing Beryl there, a look of joy instantly filled Sherry’s face.

Ever since her father’s death, she had seldom been in touch with her old friends, as the scandal about White was blown out of proportion, making many of them afraid of being implicated.

Only Beryl, her college mate maintained their contact and even helped her many times when she learned that Sherry went to River North to make a living.

During the time when Sherry’s mother was healing from her injuries in River North, Beryl’s family took care of them.

In fact, Sherry considered Beryl not only as her close friend but also as her great benefactor.

What Sherry didn’t know was that Beryl had come to Sayon long ago. However, she was busy taking care of Vincent Mill in the hospital until now when he was discharged, giving her time to pay a visit to Wen Zhihui. Not to mention, a big reason for her to come was that Vincent wanted to apologize to White in person.

In Vincent’s view, he failed to protect Wen Zhihui at the airport in Sayon, which allowed the Martial Department to take an advantage of them.

So, when Vincent saw White entering, he immediately stood up, ready to apologize to him.

However, White stopped him and said, “Mr. Mill, no need for formalities.”

After speaking, White didn’t forget to glance at Sherry. Seeing this, Vincent caught on quickly.

White had no intention of telling Sherry about what happened at the Weiden Family, so as not to worry her.

Afterward, White invited Vincent and his daughter to sit down and said, “Mr. Mill, it’s perfect timing for you to come. You could stay a few more days and attend the wedding of Sherry and myself.”

A wedding?

Upon hearing this, both Vincent Mill and his daughter furrowed their brows in surprise and stood frozen in their spots, but it was clear that this surprise meant very different things for each of them.

For Vincent Mill, his surprise was laced with a tinge of delight.

He was fully aware of White Mitchell’s status as the Supreme Military Lord of the Dragon Realm. Being present at his wedding would be an unimaginable honor.

Not just him every high-flyer in the Capital City would clamor for the opportunity to attend White Mitchell’s wedding once they knew about it.

Who could have ever predicted that he—a small-time tycoon from a second-tier city would also have the chance to attend the Supreme Military Lord’s wedding?

This was absolutely the greatest honor of his life, something he could pride over for a lifetime.

With this thought in mind, the joy on Vincent’s face was impossible to hide.

However, observing his excitement, Sherry Jones assumed that White’s invitation had put Vincent in a prickly position. She quickly tried to smooth things over, saying: “Brother, let’s not put Uncle Mill in an awkward position.

He’s still got business to handle in River North. His visit here was probably just for work—I doubt he can spare many days.”

Upon hearing, Vincent was immediately worried and hastily responded, “No problem, no problem at all… I was planning to inspect a project in River North anyway. I might be there for one or two months, so, plenty of time… Plenty of time…”

“Dad, didn’t we buy the tickets for to…” Beryl Mill blurted out, about to say they had purchased tonight’s flight tickets.

However, Vincent interrupted her: “I know, I know…You meant the movie tickets for tonight, right? Okay, okay…”

Movie tickets?

Beryl blinked her innocent big eyes in confusion at her father’s words. Soon, she understood what he meant and quickly played along.

After that, Beryl excitedly dragged Sherry into a room for some girl talk.

Once in the room, Beryl couldn’t wait and exclaimed: “Sherry, how did you manage to bag such a blockhead like White Mitchell?”

As best friends and old college classmates who told each other everything, Beryl knew Sherry had always harbored feelings for White. However, for all these years, that layer of film had remained unbroken.

She still remembered back in their college days when they would jokingly refer to White as a modern-day simpleton together with Sherry’s other girlfriends.

Surprisingly, White had just returned for such a short period, and they had already torn through that film. In fact, they were even getting married.

Sherry blushed with shyness at Beryl’s teasing.

“Oh, by the way Sherry, have you told Amy and Fenny about your wedding? How about I invite them for tea this afternoon and tell them about it?

I haven’t caught up with them in a while. I heard Amy has a boyfriend who’s an executive at Royal Group. They’re about to get married too, so it would be a great opportunity for us to gather. Who knows, it might even be beneficial for your company,” Beryl suggested enthusiastically.

Amy is Amy Tian and Fenny is Fenny Li. Both of them were Sherry’s close friends from university.

Back then, the four of them had been known as the Golden Flowers of Sayon University—famous beauty queens who dominated the school’s beauty list every year.

Initially, Sherry had no plans to let them know, for fear that they, like others, would look down on White.

However, upon hearing that Amy’s boyfriend worked at the Royal Group, she felt her interest piqued.

If Amy’s boyfriend could introduce them, perhaps she could also obtain an invitation to the big shot’s wedding.

As for her own wedding with White, delaying it by a day or two wouldn’t make a huge difference. The main point was being able to help White.

Thinking thus, she asked Beryl to get in touch with Amy and Fenny and arrange for dinner together that night.

On the other hand, upon receiving Beryl’s call, Amy immediately phoned Fenny. “Fenny, have you heard? That little bitch Sherry Jones wants to invite us for dinner?

I see… So you got the invite as well. Ha… Seems like that little bitch thinks she’s the queen now that she’s back at Jones Group as some shitty general manager.

Just as well. I’ll bring Jimmy and you should bring Mr. Jasper. Let’s take this opportunity to burst her bubble, that will help to vent some of our past frustration!”
