His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1308

"What? Why can't I remember that?" Cora asked playfully. She feigned innocence with her question as she joked with Jordan on purpose.

However, Jordan felt anxious. Did his sister forget to ask?

"I told you to ask Cassie if she has a boyfriend. Did you forget that?" Jordan asked. Nervousness coursed through him that he even stopped eating, and stared wide-eyed at Cora as he waited for her answer.

"You're so nervous. You've forgotten your morals at just the sight of a beautiful girl. I have such a brother as you, and I won't live comfortably in the future," Cora said and burst into laughter.

"Tell me. Don't be so talkative. I'll buy you the Chanel bag like I promised," Jordan urged again. The playful yet sneaky eyes of Cora looked at him in consideration.

"Okay, I'll stop now," she relented. "Jordan, I think you have a chance," she said in a serious tone.

"Really?" When Cora said that, Jordan's eyes widened in excitement behind his glasses. "Do you mean Cassie doesn't have a boyfriend?"

Cora shook her head but immediately comforted her crestfallen brother. "In fact, I don't know if Cassie does have a boyfriend because she won't tell me. But judging from her current state, I think that even if she does have one, they must've broken up."

"Really now?" Jordan murmured. His thoughts drifted to the man Cassie had driven away after he was beaten by him under her apartment.

Was he really Cassie's boyfriend? However, he had never seen that man again these days. So, were they actually broken up?

The mixed emotions on Jordan's face prompted Cora to be cautious. Did her brother have a crush on Cassie? Was he more serious than all those previous times?

If that was true, she needed to pay more attention to Cassie's life in the future.

In the bedroom

Sadness was evident in a depressed Sheryl's eyes. Charles was her main source of support and strength in their marriage—but if he didn't trust her anymore, what should she do?

Exhaustion beat her body as she lay in the bed, but she couldn't fall asleep. Even with her eyes closed, she was lost in her thoughts and her eyelids trembled restlessly.

Why did Charles allow Holley to take care of him? Why were they so close? Or, was it true that Charles didn't care about her feelings anymore because he was disappointed and didn't trust her anymore?

The negative and anxious thoughts made her mind ache painfully. It seemed that there was a malfunctioning switch deep in her heart that made her think of Charles and Holley.

She shut her eyes tight and held back her tears, but they still fell down. She felt like a coward as she curled up into a ball and held her head in her arms. Her shoulders shook slightly, and she looked like an injured little animal that nursed its wounds alone. The room was silent except for the sound of her sobs.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Then, Nancy's gentle voice was heard.

"Sher, Leila has arrived. She is on the first floor now and wants to see you."

It was Leila again! There was no way that Sheryl wanted to see this hypocritical woman. Why couldn't she remove Leila from her life? If it weren't for her and Melissa who were determined to ruin the couple's relationship and endlessly brewed trouble out of nothing, perhaps Sheryl and Charles wouldn't be in such a terrible situation.
