Vince nodded grimly. "I know you're not one to lie, Mister Sherman. However, I'm not going to let it slide if I find out that any part of what you said today is untrue." Sherman nodded as well. "I understand." The two men exchanged words that Karen could not hear as she anxiously paced outside Rita's door.

"Mom, have you lost your mind? Why would you even think of sending Sherman to Rita's room? Are you crazy? You know perfectly well that I have feelings for him. Why would you let that despicable woman have this chance? Is it because you're addicted to being a good stepmother? Have you really started to see yourself as that woman's mother? What are you even thinking?" Sadie asked Karen hysterically. She was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. The thought of the man she liked having been intimate with the woman she despised made her want to burst into the room and slash Rita with a knife. However, she could only stand outside the door, unable to do anything.

"Do you think I've lost my mind? How could I possibly let Rita have Sherman? I sent a thug in, not him!" Karen whispered vehemently to Sadie. "Are you going to abandonfor a man? Do you have any idea how hurtful your words are? There must've been a mistake somewhere in all of this, which I haven't figured out yet. But you chere and berateright away. For a man! You really are something, Sadie. Al the years I've invested in you seem to have been in vain. You don't care about me, your mother, at all!" "What's the use ofcaring about you? You always mess everything up. You clearly drugged that woman, so how was it possible for her to caway unharmed? Not to mention, it wasn't even the thug in the room but Sherman! What were you thinking? You should just lethandle her if you can't do it. Why do you always try to handle everything on your own?" Sadie cried out in frustration, covering her head. Ever since Esmond's nwas brought up last time, her mother had been acting strangely. Sadie had ssuspicions but did not dare to confirm them. She knew that there would be no going back once certain things were known, and she was content with the status quo. She wanted to continue being the carefree Miss Sadie Russell. She absolutely did not want to go back to the days of uncertainty.

Just as Karen was about to defend herself, Vince and Sherman returned. Her expression immediately changed back to concern for Rita.

"What happened? What's going on? Are you truly dating Rita? Mister Sherman, I don't mean to take on a parental attitude, but your actions were somewhat reckless. How could you not inform her parents and just take her to a hotel room? If this gets out, what will becof our daughter's reputation?" Hearing Karen's increasingly absurd words, Vince immediately rebuked her, "Go back hif you're only going to keep talking nonsense like this." "Missus Russell, I believe you better thanwhat happened today," said Sherman with a cold smirk. His proper upbringing refrained him from being more direct than that.

'Does she really think her acting can fool me? One would think she's a good stepmother,' he thought.

Sadie quickly tried to explain, "Sherman, please don't be angry. My

mother has been acting strange lately, and she's a bit confused. Maybe it's menopause. She's just worried about my sister. After all, her reputation will be affected if words get out that she was found in a hotel room with you. It'll be fine if you and her are dating, but if not..." Sadie blinked at Sherman, hoping to hear a denial from him.

However, Sherman arrogantly lifted his chin and replied, "What does it' matter to you whether we are or not?"

Sadie's smile stiffened. "I didn't mean to pry... ... I was just worried about my sister " X
