The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1653

After walking out, Sheryl saw Cora rubbing her hands together nervously.

Cora's demeanor made Sheryl feel sorry for her.

In fact, Cora was helpless when it came to how her brother acted.

"Cora, nobody needs to take the responsibility for the accident. As long as your brother can move on, Nick and Cassie won't get him in trouble. You have to make sure that your brother won't disturb Cassie's life anymore though." Sheryl knew Nick well. He was not the kind of person who would haggle with anything.

But Nick cared so much about Cassie. If somebody hurt her on purpose, Nick would never let it go.

Sheryl knew that it was different this time because the other party to the conflict was Jordan--a shameless man. She had decided for Nick and wanted to make concessions to avoid further trouble. She hoped that everything would be alright in the end.

"Hmm, Sher, don't worry. My brother truly won't disturb Cassie anymore."

"That's all right then. I am going to check on Charles. You stay with Cassie." To comfort her, Sheryl patted Cora's shoulder and then walked toward Charles' room.

When Sheryl arrived, the doctor that was assigned to Charles was examining him in a routine check-up.

"Doctor, when will Charles wake up?" Sheryl saw the doctor and couldn't help asking her usual question.

The doctor was surprised at hearing Sheryl's question again, and glanced at her before responding, "Don't you know? Charles is going to wake up soon, any day in fact. Perhaps he will wake up in the next second."

"Doctor, what did you say now? Are you joking?" Sheryl looked at the doctor with wide and doubtful eyes. She thought she must be dreaming.

"As a doctor, how could I tease a patient's family like that?" The doctor was amused by Sheryl's reaction.

It appeared that she had known nothing about the update.

When the doctor left and the room became silent again, Sheryl finally came to her senses.

"Charles, are you really going to wake up?" Sheryl covered her mouth and looked at Charles anxiously as she felt a surge of emotion.

After she had waited and spoken to him for so long, Charles was finally going to wake up.

Although Sheryl usually told herself several times every day that Charles could wake up soon, there was nothing like being told that it would happen by a doctor. The doctor said that Charles was going to wake up. It was true, not just a dream she was using to fool herself!

Sheryl realized that Melissa and Leila must have known about it earlier, but they didn't tell her.

She held Charles' hand as she cried, but there was a smile on her face.

She smiled like a child and said, "Charles, as long as you wake up soon, I will forgive you for everything. I can forget what happened between you and Leila and I won't blame you anymore. As soon as you wake up, we will be together like before, okay?"

One would never understand the pain of losing somebody if they didn't experience it themselves.

Sheryl had experienced it, so she knew that nothing was as important to her as Charles. She just wanted him to be with her.

Looking at Charles' peaceful face, she thought of the past and everything that had happened to them. It felt as if it had all happened only yesterday.
