Her Revenge Was His Regret (Shirley and Gilbert) novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86

He couldn’t interfere in the girls’ circles.

Gilbert looked at Sherry.

Sherry had become very familiar with that look over the past two years.

Whenever he gave her that look, she would suffer all sorts of grievances.

She had to endure, apologize, and compromise.

As long as she made all the concessions, the world would be at peace.

Sherry calmly walked over, looking at them with a nonchalant smile.

“You want me to get on my knees and apologize? No way. Who do you think you are?”

“Sherry! Don’t go too far.” Gilbert had originally intended to say that Cathy were a bit excessive.

He had wanted to find a compromise that would satisfy both of them. But he hadn’t expected Sherry to say something like that.

They were family. How could she talk like that?

“Gilbert, look at her. She always bullies me like this! Fine, I’ll go to jail.”

She said that, but was still silently wiping away her tears. “I don’t have a mother. They say a sister-in-law is like a mother. This is how she treated me. It’s okay. I have no parents anyway. I have no home after I got out of prison. By the way, after you framed me, I can’t work anymore. It’s okay. Even if I have to pick up trash on the street, I can support myself.”

Cathy portrayed herself as incredibly pitiful. Even the other officers began to sympathize with her.

They felt that Sherry, as her sister-in-law, shouldn’t hold it against her.

The mediator directly said to Sherry, “Since you are family, I think there must be some misunderstanding. In order not to hurt feelings, I think this should be…”

“I don’t accept mediation,” Sherry interrupted. “Don’t I, as the party involved, know better than you guys whether there’s a misunderstanding or not?”

Gilbert gritted his teeth, looking at Sherry’s face. “Sherry, you promised me. How could Cathy really make you kneel?”

As long as Sherry apologizes, this will be over. Is it that difficult?

“I was just saying it. How could I really make her kneel? But it’s okay. I can kneel to Sherry and beg her to have mercy. After all, you were the one who grabbed Gilbert by the neck and wouldn’t let go, so I pushed you. I’m not kneeling because I admit I’m wrong. I’m kneeling for the Bode family’s reputation. I’m not a child anymore. People like us are under everyone’s watchful eyes. Many people are just waiting for us to

make a mistake. Please leave the Bode family some dignity.”

Cathy’s words were beautifully crafted and reasonable.

Everyone present felt sympathy for her. This is what a child without parents like.

That’s why men need to marry a virtuous wife. Even wealthy people like them couldn’t tolerate a relative’s child.

They all felt incredibly sorry for Cathy.

Gilbert’s earlier slight dissatisfaction.with Cathy completely vanished. His eyes were filled with heartache. “Sherry, are you satisfied now?”

He turned around and took Cathy’s hand. “She doesn’t deserve any apology from you, let alone kneeling.”

Even the mediator slammed his hand on the table, his tone laced with reproach. “She’s clearly a good girl. If you go any further, we don’t mind investigating whether you’ve abused her before!”

This world loves to pity the weak, even if that weakness is feigned.

Cathy’s smug smile was almost impossible to suppress. She said in a weak voice, “At the hospital, didn’t you ask me to take care of Sherry? I didn’t expect her to say such awful things. I felt it wouldn’t be good for them to hear, so I asked to leave.”
