Chapter 1 - Where are you,Holly?

Well-dressed Sven scum ----

That was her first impression of him.

Sherry will never forget her first dramatic encounter with Eric.

Her relationship with him was a passionate and romantic miracle that went straight from the abyss to the clouds, a miracle of extreme disgust turned to deep love.

He is a paradoxical being, an endlessly dark night for the onlooker, but a pre-dawn light for Sherry. Ultimately illuminating the darkness that enveloped her and forcibly lighting up her dreams.

The moon was like water, flowing into the grey ward, the empty room was as if the pause button had been pressed and time had stopped.

The corner of the quilt on the hospital bed was lifted, and it was empty.

The restless patient quietly slipped out of the ward while her family was asleep, trying to find a piece of paradise in the hustle and bustle of the city that belonged only to her.

Sherry had never thought that her niece would be so bold. She had only been abroad for a year, and Holly had the audacity to leave the hospital on her own. Was it because the child had grown up and had her own opinions, or had she neglected to see what was going on in the adolescent Holly's little head?

Now she does not have the heart to think so much!

A girl alone at night outside is very dangerous, must be found as soon as possible to bring her back to the hospital !

She searched all the places Holly usually frequented, contacted her usual close friends, and even enlisted the help of her best friend who was a police officer, yet it was still no use.

Sherry gripped the mobile phone in her hand tightly as she bit her lower lip, her eyes reddening with anxiety.

Pacing back and forth, she imagined countless images of Holly's misfortune.

She thought to herself, "How come this brat is just as unconscionable as her mother? Was she destined to spend her life worrying about all sorts of things, big and small, on behalf of people?

If she were the Sherry of the past, she would have taught Holly a hard lesson when she found her, but now she only hoped that her capricious niece would come back to her safely, and never leave without a word, just like her mother.

It had been three years since Grace had died, three short years, but more than a thousand days of simmering, remembering and forgetting, but in the end the memories were burned into her heart, both Sherry and Holly.

People always realise regret only after they have lost something, so Holly becomes a treasure in Sherry's hands, and the two of them stick together through the toughest days and return to their own lives.

Maybe everything looks good on the surface, but in fact both of them are like apples bitten by worms, under the smooth skin is the trauma of being bitten.

It's torture for anyone to pretend to be decent when you're in the middle of a mess.

"No, waiting here is not a solution ..."

Sherry glanced at her mobile phone, it was already three in the morning, each number jumped as if stepping on her heart, each change, her breath was shortened.

She had just put the phone back into her trench coat pocket when it vibrated violently, a familiar ringtone broke the dead silence of the night, and Holly's phone number was displayed on the screen.

Her eyes lit up, and she quickly picked up the phone, but before giving her niece any chance to defend herself, Sherry spoke first, and gave her a scolding: "Oh my darling, where have you been? Do you know that I was looking for you almost toppled the city?"

"Auntie, I'm fine, I'm going back now, you go back to the ward and wait for me first, okay?"

"Where are you ,send me the location, I'll immediately go over to pick you up now. Don't you move around."

"I'm at ..."

Holly on the other end of the phone suddenly went silent , and Sherry's grip on the phone gradually tightened.

Damn, missing for a night, there shouldn't be an accident, right?

"Hello Miss Mona, I'm Holly's friend's brother, she's on my side now, I'll send her back to the hospital in a while, please don't worry."

The voice of an unfamiliar man came from the other end of the phone, Sherry couldn't react in time, her head went blank.

Who is he?

The personal safety of her niece made her nervous and the man's low and magnetic voice was like a fire, completely lighting the fuse, detonating Sherry's suppressed emotions of the night, "Who are you? Why is Holly staying with you? I'm warning you, don't you dare treat her ..."

"Sorry, I'm driving right now, I can't talk on the phone, hang up now."

The man interrupted her harsh words and ended the call without hesitation.

The beeping from her right ear didn't pull Sherry's thoughts back for a moment, and by the time she came back to her senses, it was half a minute later.

A burst of heat spread behind her tailbone to the back of her ear, annoyed Sherry's fair skin flushed red, she doesn't know whether it was because of anger or shame, she had never seen such a person who did not give respect to her, actually hung up on her directly, in addition, this person also abducted her niece.

How dare he ah! Even more abominable!

Every second after returning to the ward was torture.

Filled with condemnation of her negligence, she dialled Holly's mobile number over and over again and the person refused to answer. She couldn't ascertain whether Holly didn't want to go back to the hospital or was just lying to her and using it to stall for time.

If it was the latter, then Sherry was determined to draw the line with her this time and live her own life.
