Chapter 6 3.56 % 5 vouchers Harold just bought clothes for Sherry that day but forgot the shoes . Seeing her in his nephew's shoes , Harold took her straight to the mall . Sherry saw the price tag , got scared , put it back , and dragged Harold outside . Harold asked . " Don't you like it ? " Sherry glanced at the clerk and stayed quiet . Harold didn't push . They tried other stores , but Sherry wouldn't try anything on . When he asked again , she blushed and whispered , " Daddy , everything here costs too much . " The cheapest stuff was thousands , which was crazy . That could feed her and her mother for months . Harold was speechless . He pinched Sherry's cheek and said , " You know how much I make in a minute ? " Sherry looked at him blankly . Harold said , " My time is worth more than this ." He led Sherry into a store , sat on the couch , and ordered , " Bring every shoe that fits her . " The clerk saw a big spender , eyes lighting up . Before Sherry could react , the clerk grabbed a bunch of shoes . " What color do you like , kid ? Like this style ? " Sherry checked the price instinctively , her little brows furrowed . She didn't want to buy , but remembering his words , she reluctantly picked a pair . " Does it fit ? " Harold asked . Seeing her nod , he waved his hand . " Wrap up everything in this size ." Sherry gasped , mouth open . She counted on her fingers . She thought , ' How much is this ?! Dad is perfect but a bit wasteful . She nervously scratched her head , too scared to speak and waste his time . She held back , face flushed , looking sulky . Harold watched her cute expressions , thinking that raising a kid might be fun . Sherry walked with her head down , didn't see the person at the door , and bumped into them . She said , " Sorry . " The girl Sherry bumped into frowned and kicked Sherry , " Are you blind ? " It happened too fast . Before Harold could react , Sherry was knocked to the ground . Sherry winced in pain and looked up . She saw a familiar , handsome face . Her cheeks went pale , fingers curled , lips silently mouthing , " Dad . " The guy was Emmett . Emmett was holding the little girl who had kicked Sherry . Harold saw Emmett , too , and his face turned cold . He bent down , picked Sherry up , gently rubbed her leg , and then gave a cold look at Lynn Fennell . He kicked her over . Harold then said coldly , " Cut it out . No need for apologies . " He'd rather get even than hear a fake sorry . His kick was way harder than Lynn's kick to Sherry . Lynn cried out and burst into tears . 1/3 02:01 Mon , Sep 8 G Chapter 6 Emmett glared at Harold , scowling . " Mr. Hammond , what's going on ? " he pressed coldly . 3.56 % 5 vouchers Harold stayed cool . He stood tall , glanced over casually , ruffled Sherry's hair , and snapped , " Blind ? Can't you see it's payback ? " Harold's reply left Emmett speechless . Emmett was cautious around Harold . What bad luck to bump into him . Emmett stared at Sherry in Harold's arms . Sherry stared back , her eyes wet , meeting his . A face popped into Emmett's mind . He frowned even more , looking at her with disgust . Emmett looked away , annoyed . " Just kids messing around . Mr. Hammond , hitting a kid ? That's too much ." Harold rubbed his chin and nodded thoughtfully . " That's a good point . " He set Sherry down and said , " Fight back . " If it were kid stuff , adults shouldn't interfere . It would be better if the kids handled it themselves . Emmett's eyelid twitched . He didn't mean that . Before Sherry could say anything , Lynn shouted . Her sharp voice gave everyone a headache . Sarah Lemmon walked over in a white dress , looking kind . She bent down to help Lynn up and said softly , " Lynn , that's not nice . Since you did something wrong , apologize to her . " " No way ! " Lynn refused flatly , grabbing Emmett's leg . " Daddy , hold me . " With her chin up and a defiant look , she challenged Sherry . Such confidence came from being spoiled from birth . Sarah watched with a helpless smile . When her gaze accidentally met Sherry's and focused on her face , her eyelid twitched . Sarah felt so uneasy suddenly . " What's up ? " Emmett asked softly . Sarah shook her head , smiling to hide her worry . She told herself , thinking , ' Scarlett's dead . No one will bother us anymore . Sherry glanced at Emmett instinctively . He was smiling gently at Lynn . Sarah stood beside him - a happy family of three . The scene made Sherry tear up instantly . Sherry looked more like Scarlett with her teary eyes . Scarlett's image suddenly popped into Emmett's mind again . He frowned . In just a few minutes , he'd thought of her twice . His stare at Sherry turned colder . Facing his disgusted look , Sherry lowered her head quietly . She took Harold's hand . Harold glared at Sherry , thinking she was a coward . He snorted coldly at Emmett . Then he led Sherry away . In the car , Sherry kept her head down . She looked sad and down . Harold felt annoyed . He tapped the steering wheel . " You know who he is ? " he suddenly asked . Sherry hesitated , and then nodded . " He's my biological dad . " Her reply made Harold even angrier . " Listen up , Sherry , " he snapped . " You can't have two dads . Make a choice : him or me." Sherry replied quickly , " You . " Her answer definitely made Harold happy . He grinned . " Think it over carefully, " he said . " If you choose to be my daughter , you can't keep thinking about others . Emmett is Lynn's dad , not yours . Got it ? " Sherry nodded obediently , still looking a bit sad . 2/3 Chapter 6 S vouchers Harold clicked his tongue . " Why the sad face ? I'm better than Emmett , right ? I'm more handsome , taller , and richer Don't be so clueless , kid Sherry pursed her lips , and then blurted out . " I was just thinking of Mom . If Mom saw that earlier , she'd be heartbroken . " Actually , she and Scarlett had run into Emmett and his happy family before . Scarlett hadn't cried or shown any emotion : she just watched silently . But Sherry felt like Scarlett was about to break . Harold stopped for a second and didn't say anything . Instead , he asked , " What about you ? Does seeing their family bug you ? " Sherry thought hard , and then shook her head . She was tiny and skinny , but her voice was strong . " Nope , he didn't want me , so I don't want him either . Harold raised an eyebrow , Sherry was definitely tougher than her mother . If Scarlett had that kind of guts back then , she wouldn't be in this fix .
