Chapter 189 They See Him
Finished
Before Edwin or Liam could react, several security guards grabbed them and started pushing them toward
the exit.
People in the building paused to watch, many of them snickering.
Edwin could feel their stares, and it weighed heavily on him.
“Let go of me!” he shouted.
He was a chairman, yet now he was being treated like a criminal.
He had never felt this humiliated before. It was pure bullying!
The security guards didn’t care. They dragged them to the front doors and shoved them outside like garbage.
Edwin stumbled from the force and hit the ground hard, landing face–first.
Liam rushed over to help him up. “Edwin, are you okay? Those jerks went way too far. If I ever get the chance, I’ll make them regret this!”
Edwin stood
up and brushed off the dirt. “Let’s think about how we can meet Mr. Sherwood first.”
“Yeah,” Liam agreed. After what had just happened, he was more determined than ever to meet the Sherwoods‘ heir.
It wasn’t just about saving the Somertons‘ business. He also couldn’t forget the embarrassment they’d just gone through with the security guards.
He had heard the Sherwood Group was strict with its management, with strict rules banning things like bullying.
He was eager to ask the Sherwoods‘ heir how he planned to deal with the guards who had crossed the line.
Edwin’s knee throbbed from the fall. Spotting a bench nearby, he said, “Let’s go sit for a bit.”
They both took a seat. Liam glanced at the two guards still patrolling outside the bunding. “Edwin, those same guards are always on duty. There’s no way we’ll get past them again to find Mr. Sherwood.”
Edwin shook his head. “We’re not going in. We’ll just wait here.”
As long as the Sherwoods‘ heir was inside, he would eventually have to leave.
Liam looked doubtful. “Wait out here and hope to see him? That could take forever. Plus, we don’t even know what he looks like. We might not recognize him even if he walks right by.”
But Edwin didn’t seem worried. “Someone running a company this big won’t be hard to spot. He’ll stand
out.”
He added that the employees‘ reactions would give them a clue. When their boss came out, they’d definitely show respect.
“Will that work?” Liam still wasn’t convinced.

He’d heard the Sherwoods‘ heir kept a low profile that even some of his employees didn’t know what he
looked like.
Spotting him in a crowd might not be easy.
“Don’t stress about it. Just stay alert,” Edwin said.
They kept their eyes on the main doors, scrutinizing every man who came out.
But by the time office hours ended, they still hadn’t seen anyone who seemed like the Sherwoods heir.
As the crowd thinned, Liam’s eyes started to feel sore.
He rubbed them and said, “Edwin, it’s already late. Maybe he already left.”
Edwin paused before answering, “Let’s wait a bit longer.”
There was a chance the Sherwoods‘ heir left after most of the staff.
They’d been there for a while, so waiting a little longer didn’t seem like a big deal.
Another ten minutes passed, and the building was nearly empty.
Suddenly, Liam spotted someone familiar. His eyes lit up, and he pointed. “Edwin, isn’t that Mr. Anderson? Who’s the guy walking with him–could it be Mr. Sherwood?”
Edwin looked in that direction. “Yeah, that’s Anderson.”
Even from far away, the man next to Wyatt had an impressive presence.
But something was in the way, so Edwin couldn’t see that man’s face clearly.
They stood up quickly, eyes fixed on the two men as they walked out.
When those two exited the lobby, Edwin saw the man’s face clearly. He was shocked. “Liam, he looks so familiar.”
Liam also recognized Blake. “That’s Dr. Sherwood. He was Caroline’s attending r the hospital.”
ician when she was in
Hearing that, Edwin remembered something. At the last charity gala, Blake had stood with Caroline when she falsely accused Helen.
Thinking of that, he stared at Blake in displeasure.
“What’s a doctor doing at the Sherwood Group?”
Blake wasn’t carrying any medical tools but a briefcase, so it didn’t seem like a patient visit.
