The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1513

"It's no use crying over spilled milk, but we can't trust Lancy. I guess the police are expecting Lancy to give a full confession, so they can trace her back to me, but they won't be able to find me that easily. The only thing we're dealing with now is that Sheryl knows we exist, so she must be already keeping an eye," Bernard added.

Rachel nodded, her eyes sharp as knives. "I think the most urgent thing to do now is get rid of Lancy so that we don't have to worry about anything anymore," she said.

"Of course. She knows too much about us. As long as she's alive, we'll never be able to sleep well. She could tell on us any time." Bernard agreed.

"In that case, you have to act tonight. You have to go to the police station tonight. I don't think you'll find it difficult to get rid of someone in the police station, right?" Rachel asked.

"Yes, I can handle it. I'll do it tonight. Don't worry," Bernard answered curtly.

At Dream Garden

As soon as Sheryl returned home from work, she received a call from Isla.

"Sher, I heard that you still went to work today? But you fainted yesterday! Why don't you rest for a few days? You need to rest. You're too weak to work!" Isla said as soon as Sheryl answered the call.

Feeling a little tired, Sheryl rubbed her forehead. She tried to waive her off. "I'm fine. I've already recovered from having a good night's sleep last night."

"Don't push yourself too much. You're a mother already with two kids. You aren't as strong as you were before. Take care of yourself. Even though they've already caught Lancy, the police still don't know who she's working for. You have to still be careful especially when you go out. Remember to always have bodyguards with you," Isla advised, sounding concerned.

Sheryl felt both moved and amused. She thought Isla was overreacting.

Since the police already had Lancy, whoever she was working for must be freaking out right now. They must be trying to hide now. No one would be stupid enough to risk getting exposed just to attack her.

However, she didn't argue with Isla anymore because she didn't want to worry her friend more.

"Isla, I know. You're still a patient, so you have to take care of yourself. Don't go to work yet until you've fully recovered," Sheryl said. She too was worried about Isla's health.

"I know. Don't worry. Aron is taking care of me." A smile crept on Isla's face as she thought about Aron. Then she asked, "By the way, how are you doing with Charles? And the old witch, is she still bullying you?"

Sheryl was taken aback. The old witch? Melissa was her mother-in-law. It would be impolite to refer to her like that.

But she wasn't going to correct her. Isla knew what kind of person Melissa was and how bad she treated Sheryl. She didn't deserve Isla's respect.

"No, she doesn't cause trouble for me anymore. Charles and I are good. Thanks to him, we were able to catch Lancy and solve the crisis in our company," Sheryl said.

"Good! If he hurts you, I won't let him go that easily," Isla said, teasing.

Sheryl couldn't help but chuckle. "Does Aron know about that fierce side of yours?" she asked.

Isla smiled, "Of course, he knows. That's why he loves me! It's the best part of me, you know. Ha-ha!"
