"Okay, that's enough. Please stop worrying about this. I promise I'll have it resolved within two days. This is the tfor you to enjoy your retirement. I've said tand again not to worry so much about me, especially when it comes to relationship matters," Sherman said to them.
Chelsea grumbled, "We wouldn't be so worried if you had a girlfriend by now. Now you ended up being set up, and I can't imagine how indecent she must be to act this way." Sherman frowned and retorted instinctively, "That's out of character for her. She's nothing like her father, and I'm quite sure that she doesn't have a single clue about what her father has done." It was the first tSherman had spoken up for someone else. The elders exchanged secretive glances, believing that there was a chance for Sherman to finally get a partner.

You'll at least have scontrol over what seems to be an uncertain situation," Sherman's father suggested. Sherman shook his head. "I can't say for sure, but I can vouch for her character."

I've sent people to retrieve the videos, but I'm not sure if they've been leaked," Lucy explained in regret. She wondered if she could have done more to prevent such a breach, given her role as secretary.
Sherman's grip on the steering wheel tightened as veins protruded on his arms.
Vince proved more audacious than he anticipated. The person who had to suffer most out of everything was Rita, all while Vince remained behind the shadows.
Sherman was unable to control the situation like he wanted, and that inability was exacerbated by the fact that sindividuals within their circle were privy to the video and brought it directly to his family's attention. "Didn't you say you'd resolve this in two days, Sherman? Why is it getting more and more out of hand?" Simona asked over the phone. "Even your grandfather's friends called to ask about it.
