His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 920

Chuck was irritable because of Charles' rude attitude towards him. He firmly decided to take revenge on Charles at any cost.

In the elevator, David timidly tried to ask, "Mr. Lu, are you really giving up the cooperation with Mr. Zhang's company?"

Charles merely cast a glance at David and his tone went cold. "What? Did you think I was just kidding?"

"No, no… I didn't think so," David said in a rush. "But… He was an important partner of ours. If our sales volume in this season is reduced because of your argument with him, other members of the board would blame you."

Charles simply sneered and said, "Don't worry. I'll deal with them. You should just busy yourself with what I asked you to do."

"Okay." Although a little reluctant, Dave nodded slightly.

Charles called Sheryl as he left but she didn't pick up. He frowned at that and assumed that she would call him back soon. After he finished dinner, though, there still wasn't a call for him and it got him feeling restless.

He reached Abby and found out that Sheryl went somewhere else for work, but Abby didn't know exactly where Sheryl was either.

By that point, Charles was panicked. He called Sheryl another few times but didn't get through.

"David, check where Sheryl is working right now." His tone was serious and demanding.

David realized that something must've happened. He asked nothing as he went to check Sheryl's work schedule. Charles was gripping his phone hard and nervously waiting to find out her whereabouts as soon as possible.

Finally, his phone rang. It was a call from Sue.

He suddenly realized that Sue must know where Sheryl had gone and he cursed himself for not reaching her earlier.

"Mr. Lu, is Sher with you now? She's not answering my phone. Please have her pick up the call." Sue's tone was nervous. She had just had a nightmare at noon and it made her feel restless with concern about Sheryl.

"You think she's with me?" Charles was astonished.

"Didn't she go visit you?" Sue realized that Sheryl never went to see Charles. When Sue heard his confused voice, she was taken aback and murmured, "How would that… Sheryl told me her working place is also in Y City and she planned to give you a surprise."

Sue paused for a while and carefully added, "She really didn't come for you, right? Could something have happened to her?"

Both Sue and Charles were fidgety and restless because of the possibility that Sheryl did meet some kind of accident.

"Are you sure she came to Y City?" Charles asked once more, hoping to hear something hopeful.

"Yes, I'm sure." Sue was certain about that, at least. "She had to go with the people at BM Corporation. I tried to stop her this time because I thought Holley is too weird, but I didn't expect anything to happen so quickly."

"Don't be scared. She could just be really caught up in work." Charles tried to console Sue, and in turn, himself.

"No, that's impossible." Sue's smile was bitter as she said, "I kept calling her last night but she never picked up. She would never do that to me."

Charles arched his brows at Sue's words before he said, "Don't be nervous. I'm looking for her right now."
