The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1183

"I wasn't talking to you, Holley. So, shut up. Don't you think you are being ridiculous?" Sheryl said, turning to look at Holley with an icy glare. She resisted the strong impulse to expose Holley's true colors in front of Rachel.

"You are being impossible. You are in no position to accuse me, Sheryl," Holley hissed. When Sheryl wasn't around, Holley thought of herself as eloquent. But every time she faced Sheryl, she was always rendered speechless.

She hated being trapped in such a helpless situation. 'Since we are in Tarsan Corporation, I can't let her be so perky towards me, ' Holley thought.

"Oh, really? How about I share your miserable past with Rachel? That way, you two can assess who is more shameless!" Sheryl threatened as she stood up from her seat and made her way towards Holley.

"Don't you dare think you can do whatever you want just because you have Tarsan Corporation backing you. If you have learned nothing from your previous experiences, then you can forget all about my warning," she continued, staring deep into Holley's eyes.

"Come on, Sheryl. What's the point of speaking of her past now? You agreed to come here because you want to figure out what is going on between Charles and me. If you are curious about that, you should come here and ask me. Don't bully Holley," Rachel cut in, coming to Holley's rescue.

"Oh yeah, that reminds me. Ms. Bai, you do owe me an explanation," Sheryl replied, as she came back to her seat. When she heard Rachel mention her husband's name, her heart skipped a beat.

'She said "Charles and me,"

not "Charles Lu and me"

or "Mr. Lu and me."

Are they close enough to call each other by their first names?

I thought only I could call him Charles, ' she thought with a sting in her heart.

But she kept a blank face as she pulled herself together. She watched Rachel intently to scrutinize some information from her facial expression.

However, Sheryl failed to capture any emotions on her face.

Rachel's voice reverberated in the spacious room as she asked, "What did Charles say about our meeting at Lavender Bar the other night?" 'During our previous meeting, Charles didn't throw a tantrum. Perhaps Sheryl didn't fight with him blindly. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let me go so easily, ' she ruminated.

She was curious to know what Sheryl's reaction had been that day. 'What did she say to Charles that night after she saw us meeting in private at the bar? She must have said something. Otherwise he wouldn't have acted in a calm way like that when we last met, ' she wondered.

"Does that have anything to do with you? If you don't know what he said, then does that mean that you did all of this behind his back? If there's something going on between you, why hasn't he never mentioned you to me?" Sheryl grilled her.
