The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1462

Sheryl was taken aback by Cassie's overreaction.

She had only asked her to meet Nick. Wasn't that what she had always wanted? Why was she being so reluctant now?

Or was there something going on between them that she didn't know?

Sheryl tried to soothe Cassie and said softly, "Cassie, if you really don't want to meet Nick, I won't push you. But, you have to be honest with me. Did something happen between you two? Did Nick hurt you in any way? Tell me, Cassie. I'll help you out."

"Sher!" Cassie cried out abruptly, tears filling in her eyes. She was extremely upset and it was pretty much evident on her face.

Sheryl couldn't help but feel sorry for her. She heaved a sigh and stood up from her seat, proceeding to sit by Cassie's side.

"Tell me what happened," Sheryl said, wrapping Cassie's hands within her own.

"He...he cheated on me! He is seeing some other woman!" Cassie finally burst out. Bitterness crept through her heart.

"Some other woman?" Sheryl murmured in disbelief. 'What the hell?' As far as she knew, Nick was honest and decent. Moreover, he was not a philandering man. Cassie's accusation of Nick shocked her.

"It's true," Cassie repeated, sobbing. Seeing that Sheryl wasn't convinced, Cassie decided to tell her everything that had happened.

"I saw it with my own eyes… I saw that woman at Nick's place. Sher, tell me, what should I do now? I really don't know what to do!" Cassie told her everything, except the incident that Jordan had taken her to a hotel.

She didn't mention it because she didn't think it was necessary. She didn't have any feelings for Jordan. He was just making useless efforts to get her attention.

"Cassie, calm down. Let me think this over," Sheryl said. Truth be told, she still couldn't believe it. She didn't think that she would ever hear such a thing about Nick.

But just as Cassie had said, it couldn't have been a mistake if she had seen it herself. But, it still sounded ridiculous to Sheryl.

It was difficult to digest that Nick would play around with different women. Nick wasn't the kind of man who pursued pleasure. What Cassie had seen might not have been the whole story. Sheryl felt that there might be more to this than Cassie thought.

She wanted to meet Nick right away and ask him to spill the beans. But she couldn't leave Cassie alone. And worse, Nick was nowhere to be found.

Cassie cried desperately, which knocked Sheryl off her feet. She didn't know how to comfort her. Finally, she wrapped her in her arms and patted her shoulder gently. They silently remained in each other's embrace.

Burying herself in Sheryl's arms, Cassie cried until she was free of the tightness in her heart. When she was done, she felt a little embarrassed about her inappropriate behavior in front of Sheryl.
