The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1175

Not only did Sheryl not have much time to think about Charles' cheating, she also didn't want to think about it. Striding towards her car, she hurried inside, started the engine and drove straight to Cloud Advertising Company.

She was slightly late when she arrived at the company building, so she parked her car quickly and headed towards the entrance. The moment she stepped inside, she froze as a thought came to her. 'All of my employees saw Charles and Rachel last night. They might gossip about this behind my back. Or they might exaggerate what happened and share it with others.'

This was an unsettling thought, but since there was nothing she could do about the past, she decided to face it bravely. So she mustered up some courage, took a deep breath and entered the company.

The minute she stepped through the door, Isla pulled her into a corner and whispered in a low voice, "We need to talk, Sher."

"What's up, Isla?" Sheryl asked curiously, observing her stern expression. She had no idea what Isla wanted from her, but sensed that it was something serious.

"Just follow me," Isla said bluntly as she walked towards her office.

After Sheryl followed her inside, Isla closed the door behind her, the stern look on her face fading slightly. Analyzing her boss from head to toe, she inquired in a sincere, earnest tone, "How were you and Charles last night?"

Finally understanding what Isla wanted to talk to her about, Sheryl heaved a long breath. 'I thought there had been a serious problem with the company.'

She breathed a huge sigh of relief.

"You didn't mention what you saw at the bar last night to Charles, did you?" Isla queried, her eyes dilated with worry. When Isla saw how calm Sheryl was, her pity turned to anger.

"What else could I do, Isla?" Sheryl replied quietly, hoping that she could understand. She didn't want to lose Charles.

"What are you afraid of? He is the one to blame, not you. Now that he's made this mistake, he should bear the responsibility. Why suffer alone? You should let him know," Isla replied, her voice full of emotion. She didn't understand what Sheryl was thinking.

'She must be out of her mind. She saw her husband fool around with another woman. How could she endure that?' Isla internally screamed.

"What if he doesn't admit it when I bring it up? What will I do then?" Sheryl snapped back.

She was certain that Charles would deny his affair. 'If he wanted to confess, he would have mentioned it this morning when he realized I was mad at him. But he didn't.

He didn't even look guilty.

Perhaps he doesn't think he did anything wrong. Men like cheating on their wives, especially successful men, ' Sheryl brooded with bitterness.

"Even if he refuses to admit it, you should still talk to him about this. He thinks he can keep you in the dark forever. But the fact is everyone already knows he's a cheater," Isla voiced her opinion, trying to convince Sheryl.

"How about I talk to him? The more I think about this, the more upset I get. Even if he wanted to date someone else, he shouldn't have chosen Rachel," Isla seethed. She hated seeing Sheryl being treated so poorly.

"No, I don't think that's a good idea," Sheryl replied reluctantly, not wanting anyone to get involved in this. Her plan was to wait for Charles to confess to her one day.

In her opinion, if Charles still cared about her, he would eventually tell her the truth. If he didn't, it would mean that he didn't love her anymore.
