His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 931

Sheryl truly felt happy for Sue and she congratulated her with a big, wholehearted smile. "It's so good to see you and Anthony have gotten over the hard times to get together again. Only good times should be ahead of you."

As for Anthony, Sheryl didn't have a very clear impression of him. In truth, she still knew very little about the man, even though she had the chance to be around him for a lengthy period of time. She even forgot the fact that he was from M City. Given that, she felt rather ashamed of herself, feeling like she was impolite.

Sheryl just had to keep smiling to disguise her embarrassment. Wanting to escape the situation, she realized she should rush a short goodbye and say that she had something important to do. So she took Sue with a warm embrace and said, "Well, let's meet back in Y City next time."

"Sure." Sue gently nodded her head and looked at Sheryl, the attachment still hinted by her eyes. "I feel settled to see that you're okay. Now I have to go. Anthony is waiting for me downstairs."

There were several reasons that kept Anthony from going upstairs with Sue. One was that he knew he should give the two some privacy to talk as they had much to say to each other. As for the other reason, Charles was also up there beside Sheryl. No matter what fault he had done, Anthony made up his mind to take responsibility for his actions and develop a fresh start with Sue. He was sure that Sheryl would believe him and forgive him for what he had done, but he was not as confident that Charles could tolerate him the same way.

He was certain that going up with Sue would only ruin the good friends' moment, so he decided to wait alone downstairs.

Sheryl led Sue back to the door and turned to look Sue in the eye. With great care she said, "Don't forget to give me a call, okay? Even when you go back. I'll pay you a visit later."

"I know." Sue was delighted to hear that and returned a hearty smile to Sheryl before turning around to leave and close the door behind her.

As soon as the door swung shut, Charles leaned on Sheryl from behind, snaking his arms around her body. He couldn't wait any longer to give Sheryl an eager embrace and curiously asked, "What were you talking about?"

"About private matters between sisters," Sheryl answered him in a very playful tone. She could feel his heartbeat speed up wildly on her back, which made her feel tingly and excited. She tried to stay cool and asked him with her lips curled up, "Have you finished all your work?"

"Almost." Charles took a look at Sheryl and couldn't help but let the enchanted feeling bubble up inside him because of her pretty face. He couldn't resist her charm and simply buried his head against her chest to enjoy the sweet smell with gusto.

To him, there was something magical about her body, making it impossible for him to contain his desire for her.

"Oh, I almost forgot about that." The thought suddenly struck Sheryl. "I have to give Susan a phone call right away." She stopped Charles from his playful touching and asked, "My dear Charles, have you made an appointment with Cary? When and where are we supposed to meet?" Sherly then turned into a busy mood. "Now, I have to call Susan up."

Charles could see that she was in a hurry, so he quickly adjusted himself and relayed to her the details about meeting with Cary. His quick reaction put Sheryl at ease and she felt really thankful. After dialing Susan's number, Sheryl waited quite a while before Susan finally picked up. Susan answered in a very low voice, clearly upset, "Hello?"

"Hi, Susan. It's Sheryl." She was so ecstatic to be speaking to Susan that Sheryl didn't realize the faint frustration in her tone. She went on sounding excited, "Are you still in the hotel? If you are, just stay there. Charles and I will go to you and we can all have dinner together. What do you say?"

"That's really nice of you, Sher. But it's really not necessary." As Susan spoke, she wore a wry smile. "There's no need for you to do that. Another thing…... I have your stuff here. When will you come by to pick it up? How about I take it to you when I come back to Y City?"

"How could I bother you to do such a thing?" Sheryl was truly pleased to see Susan was showing her such kindness and continued talking to her with a smile. "Just let me go and pick it up from you when I am available. As for the dinner, Charles wants to express his appreciation to you. You should give him a chance to thank you properly."

Susan pursed her lips on the other end of the line. "Really, there's no need for him to do that…" She continued to insist on rejecting the invitation.

In that moment, Sheryl could sense that something was wrong with Susan. She tried to think it over, her brows creasing. Tentatively, she asked Susan about it. "Susan, is it Holley that did something or said something to you after I left? Did she threaten you? If she did, I will fight back for you."

"No, no…" Susan just continued smiling wryly while avoiding Sheryl's questions.

Indeed, it was impossible for Sheryl not to doubt that it was Holley making Susan feel frustrated, considering how awful Holley could be. However, Susan didn't want Sheryl to get worried about her, choosing to hide her frustrations and bear them herself.

Sheryl didn't give up. She was certain that it was Holley who upset Susan so much. She frowned and asked, "Then why aren't you willing to have dinner with us?"

"I…" Susan's laugh was wry. After a long silence, she finally made her mind and confessed, "Sher, what happened last night totally sabotaged Holley's trap. She got furious and came back to George. They had a huge quarrel and she claimed that she would not let you get away with it, but George didn't listen to her and even beat her. You see... George ordered all the models of the company to pack up and get ready to go back to Y City."

Susan finally gave Sheryl the truth. With that, she had to end the conversation as she had loads to pack up as well. Sounding helpless, Susan said, "Sher, I can't keep talking to you like this. There's a car waiting for me outside. I have to hurry packing and go."
