His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 895

"Alright," Sue held Sheryl as she said. "I know you care for me, I do. But you know Anthony, don't you? I'm afraid I can't stay here. I can always go to you if he shows any signs of not treating me well. You won't turn me away, right?"

Sheryl dragged out a long, helpless sigh. As she turned to Sue and held a serious look, she said, "Well, I won't keep you here if you've made up your mind.

I know you're still in love with him. You haven't talked about it but you've been missing him, right?"

Sue smiled affectionately. "You do know me best."

"Since it was your choice, I'll respect your decision. But…" Sheryl paused for a moment, looking at Sue with a heavy stare. "You have to let me know the second you feel wronged, if you ever do. No matter what happens, I'll back you up.

You're always welcome to come here if you feel like it. My home is yours now too. I'll always be here for you no matter how things turn out."

"I know." Sue enveloped Sheryl in a tight embrace. "Sher, I'm so lucky to have a friend like you in my life."

And she truly was. Sheryl's words were genuine, and she would always do everything in her power to keep her friend from harm.

"Silly girl," Sheryl teased.

That night, Sue packed her belongings. When she moved out of her apartment, she didn't carry many clothes because she thought she would be staying at Sheryl's place for only a few days. Most of her necessities were provided by Sheryl.

All that time, Sheryl had made sure to provide enough for her. She shared all she could.

"Sue, you can take these toothbrushes and other toiletries. I bought them for you, anyway.

I also have these two dresses that I haven't worn since I bought them. We're about the same size, so you can take them with you too."

"Oh and by the way, have you taken the vitamins I brought you before?" Sheryl added.

"Yes." Sue stopped her. "Don't worry about that. Sher, if you keep doing this, I'll end up leaving with everything in your house. Might as well put you in my luggage," she joked.

Suddenly, the mood shifted and Sheryl didn't seem to be very happy about the teasing. "I'm just afraid that you won't feel comfortable enough there."

"I know..." Sue moved in to put her arm around Sheryl's shoulder and said to her gently, "You should be relieved about me moving out. How can I leave you if you keep doing this?

It's not like it's goodbye forever. We can still meet each other any time, every day, even."

Sue's comforting words made Sheryl feel loads better. They finished packing up and lay down in the bed, chatting the night away.

The next morning, Sheryl woke up very early. Anthony's car was already outside when she sent Shirley to school. She decided to approach him and knock on the car door.

He greeted her, looking very tired and restless.

"Have you been waiting here the whole night?" Sheryl asked.

"No," he denied. "I came here in the morning. I thought that I might as well just wait here since I couldn't fall asleep."

Sheryl looked at Anthony hesitantly. After a moment, she said, "Anthony, you can bring Sue home on one condition. You have to promise me that you will treat her well. She's a good girl and she deserves to be treated well."

"I know." He nodded his head eagerly before looking Sheryl in the eye. "I promise I will do my best to care for her."
