He Chose the So-Called Sister Chapter 390: The Viral Meme

Edward, and even Bryan, who helped out at the company, told her to stop causing trouble and put the company first.

Teresa threw a fit. It was only when Bryan helplessly mentioned Sherry that she remembered she could go after her.

She was determined to get Sherry's ticket.

"Why would I be desperate? That ticket is mine anyway. Since we were kids, anything I want, I get. If you don't want to be embarrassed, hand it over nicely."

Teresa had every reason to be arrogant.

Anything Sherry had that she wanted always ended up hers.

"Teresa, wake up. You're dreaming. I won't give you anything, not even in a dream. But I'll be nice—you can stand outside and watch."

Teresa jumped in anger.

"Sherry! How dare you go in while I stay out? I've been too nice to you... You hung up on me?!

"I gave you way too much face!"

She ranted, but all she heard was the dial tone.

Teresa paced wildly around the room, fuming.

Sherry was supposed to be beneath her. She couldn't stand seeing Sherry above her now.

Sherry deserved to struggle in the dirt.

Sherry didn't care what Teresa was saying.

Just then, Juan sent her a news alert.

"Sherry, look! That bitch Julia is trending! Look at her ugly face, so full of herself. Did she forget her tooth is missing? LOL!"

Juan had even turned it into a meme.

It showed Julia grinning with a gap in her teeth, hitting on men, with the caption, "Am I pretty?"

Juan spammed it in every comment section, and it blew up instantly.

Thousands of people were asking who the actress was and begging for the meme.

Juan replied with the same mocking grin.

[Julia Mack. Been in the industry less than a year. First hit: The Other Woman. First movie: Ghost City. Newest release: Am I Pretty?]

Someone commented nervously: [So it's a drama, horror, and meme all in one? Versatile. Send the link!]

They clearly misunderstood, but Juan wasn't about to correct them.

And she wasn't wrong.

Julia had gotten famous fast by leaning into Gilbert's status.

People asked if she was the real Mrs. Bode, and she never denied it.

When that got old, she rebranded herself as the first love.

The trending word back then had been "Homewrecker."

Gilbert quickly took it down, but people still remembered.

Sherry picked up her phone and texted Lucas for the first time.

Before, they always called and got straight to the point.

Often, she only had to think about wanting something, and it would already be there for her.

So it felt like the first time she'd messaged him, and she didn't think it was strange.

Gilbert always told her not to text him unless it was important—he was too busy for that.

So Sherry only ever called him when she needed something.

She didn't expect Lucas to reply at all.

If Gilbert was busy, Lucas was ten times busier.

She sent him the meme of Julia.

To her surprise, he texted back instantly, "You're beautiful. Don't keep ugly memes like that. They'll dirty your gallery."

Sherry lay in the hospital bed and smiled without realizing it, the corners of her lips lifting.

Lucas definitely knew.

"Thanks for your help."

If he hadn't stepped in, the topic would've been buried already.

"Words aren't enough."

Sherry knew she should thank him properly.

"When we go to Sencia City..."

She could pick out a good gift there. She'd never really received gifts before, and had only given a few times.

Once, her cheap present had been thrown away directly, even though it was the best she could afford.

Being poor was a crime.

"I might not be able to go with you."

Lucas stared out the car window, his eyes playful and cold.

Sherry actually felt relieved.

If she went with him, how would she shop for a gift?

"It's okay. I can go alone. You focus on your work."

She needed to look up how people usually gave gifts.

Time was tight—she had to choose something good.
