His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 707

Anthony had already stayed in Sue's apartment for two nights and he took good care of her. She admitted that it had been a good time. However, Sheryl would be coming back today. Sue had already thought that it was time for her to return Anthony to Sheryl. She didn't intend to be an intruder, though she claimed to compete with Sheryl. Besides, she was not fully prepared to do that. When Sue thought of Sheryl's return, her face turned gloomy. There was no better way to drive Anthony away so she said crossly, "I told you, we are only friends. You should not interfere with my personal affairs. You'd better get out of here quickly. Leave me alone!" She feigned impatience but deep in her heart, she was struggling. On the one hand, she hoped Anthony would storm out. On the other hand, she was looking forward to his stay, though it was nearly impossible.

"What the… What is wrong with you?" Anthony asked casually while staring at Sue calmly. He was not enraged by Sue's rudeness. He thought to himself, 'We are friends so I must take care of her. I know how inconvenient it is for her to be alone while still injured. I won't leave until she fully recovers.' Anthony wasn't aware that his feeling for Sue had changed. Maybe because his full attention had been only focused on Sheryl for the past years.

It was actually very unusual that he insisted to stay at Sue's apartment even though he was aware that Sheryl would be coming back today. "Why won't you listen to me? You're getting irrational. Sheryl is coming back today so you can't stay in my apartment anymore. She might misunderstand you again," Sue continued urging him. "Come on, it's best that you leave now. Otherwise, you will meet her at the hallway later," Sue snapped while chafing her hands together. She couldn't help but frown because Anthony was very difficult to persuade.

"What are you worrying about? We are innocent. We didn't do anything wrong. So what if Sheryl sees me walk out of your apartment?" Anthony said with a bitter smile. 'Sheryl will never overthink about my relationship with Sue. In other words, she never cares about me or whom I am staying with. Especially now that she is getting closer to her ex-husband even though she hasn't remember the past.'

Anthony made sense but Sue didn't feel comfortable at all. "You stupid man! Don't think it's just as simple as that. Have you already forgotten? You had numerous fights with Sheryl because of Charles. You always feel jealous when they are together even though you don't really have any actual evidence that they have an affair. You only assumed things. What if Sheryl will also feel the same toward us?" Sue said reluctantly with a bitter chuckle. She actually felt pity for herself. 'Isn't it the most terrible thing to teach the one I love to win his girlfriend's heart back?' she thought.

"We are friends so Sheryl should trust us. Her relationship with Charles is different," Anthony retorted loudly. 'Sheryl and Charles were husband and wife. They are still legally registered as a couple until now. That's the reason why I have always been jealous and ended up fighting with Sheryl many times. I am afraid she will leave me sooner or later.'

"It's the same, indeed," Sue countered. "The most important element in keeping a relationship is trust. Since you don't trust her, you shouldn't demand her full trust as well," Sue said, glancing at Anthony's direction. Sue knew exactly why Anthony and Sheryl weren't getting along well. Sheryl didn't show her love towards Anthony. And that made Anthony unconfident of their relationship. However, his suspicions and accusations pushed Sheryl farther.

"Enough of your lecture," Anthony interrupted Sue. "I will handle this myself. There is no need for you to worry so much."

When Sue noticed that Anthony was lost in his thoughts, she stopped persuading him. As a matter of fact, she was not interested in lecturing him. It was just that seeing their ongoing tension made her anxious. She hoped that they could eventually settle everything. Either they reconcile and get back together or they break up quickly.

Anthony contradicted Sue because he was just in a mess. Sheryl had gone to the suburbs of Y City for two days with Charles. He couldn't help but think of so many possibilities. He had a lot of foolish notions. He didn't notice his deep feelings for Sheryl had gradually disappeared until today and he was bewildered by this discovery. He didn't know what to do.

He didn't have any plans to marry other women aside from Sheryl. 'What should I do? Should I marry Sheryl and force myself to fall in love with her again or should I just break up with her?' Anthony thought. It was giving him headaches.

When Sheryl and Shirley arrived at their apartment, Nancy was already preparing dinner. Sheryl immediately came to help her while Shirley excitedly pulled Nancy's hand to talk about her experiences. Since she had a great time, she was very eager to share her happiness to Nancy.

Sheryl was glad to see that Shirley and Nancy were getting along well like a grandmother and a granddaughter.

When they were about to eat dinner, Shirley begged Nancy to feed her. But Sheryl stopped her and told her to eat her dinner by herself. Shirley twisted her lips but still obeyed her mother.

Nancy said smiling tenderly, "Shirley is still young and we haven't seen each other for a few days so it's okay for me to feed her. I think it's better for her to be close to me."

"But she doesn't do anything whenever you are beside her. She will be spoiled," Sheryl said with a forced smile. Nancy only replied with a smile as well.

After dinner, Shirley immediately went to her room. Since she played a lot in the farm for two days, she was very exhausted. So she fell asleep really soon. When Sheryl noticed that Shirley was already sleeping soundly, she went out of the room and quietly closed the door behind her. She saw that Nancy was still doing some housework so she said, "Nancy, that's enough. It's too late now. You should go to bed."

"It's okay. This won't take long," Nancy replied softly with a smile. After a moment of consideration, she walked towards Sheryl and asked, "Sheryl, how are you and Mr. Xiao doing recently? Did you break up?" Nancy knew that it was not appropriate for her to ask. After all, Sheryl was her boss. She didn't have the right to interlope with her personal affairs. However, she only wanted to know the status of their relationship because she wasn't sure if she should tell Sheryl of what she accidentally saw or not.

"Why are you suddenly asking about our relationship? Did something happen when I was away for two days?" Sheryl asked. She was curious about Nancy's question. After all, Nancy had been a very good baby sister and never asked about her personal affairs.

"N-nothing," Nancy stammered. She was hesitating whether to tell Sheryl that she had seen Anthony or not.

"You are not telling the truth," Sheryl dubiously said. "I know there's something you're not telling me. What is it?" Sheryl stared at Nancy insistently and inquired.
