His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1275

"What brings you here, Isla? It's so late now. Did you drive here all by yourself?" Nick asked in a worried tone as he put the teapot on the table.

Seeing that Nick was as gentle as a girl, Isla couldn't help laughing and said, "It's only been a few days since we last met, but you've become so wordy!"

Embarrassed, Nick lowered his head. Although she was right about the fact that he was changed by a woman, he was unwilling to tell Isla about it.

Recently, Cassie had been making daily trips to his house to bring him delicious soup. She was also considerate enough to often do house cleaning.

Every morning before he headed for work, Nick would always look around his house. His house suddenly made him feel he was in a strange place. Although each of the furnishings here was very familiar to him, he always had a strange feeling when he looked at them as a whole.

After spending a lot of time with Cassie, Nick found himself unconsciously influenced by her. He was now more caring and considerate of others. And now that he was facing Isla, who was more like part of his family, he naturally behaved like a gentleman.

Isla stared at Nick, his cheeks now pink, as he avoided her eyes. Seeing Nick look embarrassed, Isla decided to stop teasing him anymore. Then, at the thought of something unpleasant, she couldn't help sighing.

"What's wrong? Why the sudden cloud in your eyes?" Nick asked in surprise, raising his head. His earlier expression had now been replaced by a worried look.

"It's because of Sher. She's been in trouble lately," Isla explained.

Anxious, Nick asked, "What's the matter? She never mentioned anything."

"Do you still not know her personality by now? She is not someone who complains about others. She would rather swallow her anger whenever someone does her wrong. Even if Sher and I work in the same company, she has never opened up to me. She won't tell me what has happened to her. But as you know, other people talk. And so I've heard that she's been in big trouble lately..."

"What exactly is the problem?" Nick immediately asked, his forehead creased with worry.

Seeing that Nick was so concerned, Isla felt that she made the right decision to come to him. She knew that Sheryl was likely to keep the secret from her. After all, two women were mutually exclusive. Besides, they knew each other too well because they saw each other very often. On the contrary, Sheryl regarded Nick as her own brother. So Isla thought it was okay if she would pour out her heart to him.

With this taken into consideration, Isla did not waste time and quickly told Nick everything she had heard about Sheryl.

She first started with a disclaimer that the information she had was not directly coming from Sheryl, but a collection of other people's accounts. "That's how it happened. Leila tried to frame Sher and she was so unlucky that she fell right into her trap. The bitch clearly fooled everyone around her. She pretended to be filial and warm-hearted in front of Melissa. She also staged an innocent girl in front of Charles. She schemed to make Sher her scapegoat. Unfortunately, Melissa discovered Sher's weakness because of her negligence. If only Melissa hadn't fallen down the stairs, things would have not been so bad. Alas! Even if Charles is not close to his mother, it is impossible for him to completely disregard her since they are related by blood. After all, Melissa is his biological mother."

Upon hearing Isla's story, Nick finally understood what was wrong with Sheryl recently. He was sullen, frowning. He tried calling Sheryl yesterday but she never answered his calls. That just proved that she was in a bad mood at that time.
