His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 530

Noticing how anxious she was, Holley tried to reassure her. "Just take a rest in the hotel," she said. "Don't worry too much about work, and take a good rest," she further added.

Sheryl stood still as Holley patted her shoulder gently and bid,"Farewell, I'll visit you another day."

After finishing these words, the girl calmly turned her back and walked away with George. Stunned, Sheryl fixed her gaze on the woman's back as her shadow slowly faded.

Although she treated Sheryl in an ardent manner, it seemed as if she approached her with other intentions in mind.

'I've never met her before. What does she want to get from me? What's her motive?' she wondered with a frown.

"Autumn? Is that you? It's me, Eric," a man's confused voice reached her ears. Turning around to see if somebody else was there beside her, she found a man who was staring heavily at her.

Upon meeting her gaze, the man was dumbfounded by what he saw. "Perhaps, are you talking to me?" she asked. Stunned in confusion, she tried to examine the man from his head down to the shoes he was wearing. He wasn't familiar at all.

"It's you. It's really you!" Eric exclaimed, ignoring her question. "Where have you been all these years?" he started. "Do you know that Charles have looked everywhere for you, to the point that he almost lost his mind?" the man asked in one breath. Eric was standing behind her all this time from the moment he stole a glance at this woman who was emitting some familiar and elegant aura. As she stood there, Eric was captivated by her.

Soon enough, he realized that not only was she familiar but he knew her very well. The woman's name was Autumn. She was the same Autumn he knew very well, but he didn't dare to speak to her in doubt.

A person who had gone missing for three years showed up out of nowhere in his hotel. He couldn't believe that such coincidence would happen.

After hesitating, Eric finally took his courage to step closer and raised that question to the woman. When he saw her face, he knew right then that his assumption was correct.

The woman whom Charles had been looking for a long time was now right standing in front of him.

"Excuse me, but I think you got the wrong person," Sheryl replied, perplexed. "My name is not Autumn," she further added, hoping that the man would leave her be. Staring at Eric warily, she ended,"I don't know you. So please excuse me."

"It's not funny at all, Autumn. We might not have met frequently, but you could at least remember my face," the man explained. Noticing how baffled the expression of the woman's face was, he knew right then that something must've happened to her.

"I truly apologize, but I really don't know a guy called Eric. I just came back from abroad. You really got the wrong person, sir," Sheryl responded while staring at him with her furrowed brows. "I'm not the one you're looking for," she said as she tried to squeeze a courteous smile.

"I'm sorry. You look just like someone I know," Eric said courteously. Aplogizing, Eric added while scratching his head,"You two look exactly alike." Focusing his gaze on Sheryl, he made sure that his cover wasn't blown. He pretended not to know her so he could ease the tension between them.

Eric didn't see any suspicious signs on her face.

"If there isn't anything else I can help you with, I should better take my leave now. Enjoy the rest of time, sir," Sheryl said, feeling uncomfortable under a stranger's gaze. Sheryl was anxious all the while. Knowing she once lived in Y City, she assumed that the man must've known her or the father of her daughter.

No matter how curious she was of her past, she resisted her impulse. Fearing that she must've had a lot of bad memories in the city, she chose to run away from the possible truth.

"Please wait a minute," Eric exclaimed as she was about to leave. "Perhaps, did you book a room in this hotel?" he asked.

"Yes, I did," Shery nodded. In fear of what the man would further ask, she turned around and walked away.

Staring at Sheryl quickening her pace away from him, he felt overjoyed.
