His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1399

Sheryl was tired of wrangling with Melissa. She turned to Charles. "Charles, stop blaming everything on Mom," she said to her husband in a loud voice. "She didn't mean it. Besides, I am to blame as well. If I weren't so impulsive, then Mom wouldn't have become angry. "

"Mom." Sheryl turned to Melissa. "I'm not angry with you, and I owe you an apology. I was so tired and in a fret. I'm sorry. Please forgive me."

Then, she took both Melissa and Charles' hands and held them together. "Let's all forget the unhappiness. We're family. We should work together to bring Shirley back. So we can reunite."

When she mentioned Shirley, her precious daughter, her eyes reddened and soon filled with tears.

Leila, who was standing aside, was more than embarrassed. She wasn't a member of the family and felt like she was intruding. 'Should I stay or leave?' thought Leila, restlessly.

She stepped forward. "Aunt Melissa." Leila cleared her throat and said, "Sheryl mentioned that she was tired. Why don't we go home and let her have a rest? She hasn't fully recovered yet."

Melissa had had enough of Sheryl, and she wanted to get out of here. However, Charles was there, and she couldn't just leave. Leila had given her an out, so she nodded to agree with her.

"Yes, you're right, Leila. We should go. Charles, please take good care of Sheryl. And Sheryl, I do hope you can forgive me. There should be no misunderstanding between us."

Charles made no reaction. He stood beside Sheryl's bed in silence, putting Melissa in an embarrassing position.

Melissa smiled awkwardly before taking a deep breath. "Well then, we're leaving. Sheryl, I hope you get well soon."

"Sheryl, sorry that we have bothered you. Please have some rest. We'll come and see you when you're better. Please don't hesitated to let me know if there's anything I can do for you," said Leila simpering.

To her surprise, Sheryl suddenly huddled herself up and cowered in the corner of the bed. Her eyes were filled with panic and terror. She leaned against the wall and tried to keep at a distance from Leila as if she had seen something extremely horrible.

Charles was shocked when he saw how Sheryl had reacted. Leila didn't say anything upsetting, but Sheryl responded so violently. Charles tried to ask her what had happened, but Sheryl shook her head and called out, "Leave me alone! Get out! Get out! Now!"

While covering her ears tightly, she lowered her head helplessly. She seemed to be directing it all at Leila.

Leila stood gaping, at a loss as to why Sheryl had become so nervous and afraid of her. She hadn't done anything to provoke her today. When Melissa was making a scene, Leila just stood by and kept silent. She was only saying goodbye to Sheryl. That wasn't a reason to behave like that.

Or...could it be that Sheryl had noticed something?

Leila became restless at the idea. 'What if Sheryl remembers what I have done? What if she tells Charles about it?' thought Leila, as if on pins and needles. She stared at Sheryl nervously biting her lips.
