The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1726

Speechlessly, Sheryl smiled. She could only nod at Isla's bubbly mood.

Isla, on the other hand, cheered and jumped because of too much joy.

Sheryl was very amused. Though already a mom, Isla still always acted like a child. Sheryl could only shake her head at her.

"You're so excited, Isla. What made you so happy?" Sheryl asked Isla in confusion.

Snapping her fingers, Isla looked at Sheryl saying, "You notice that?"

"Of course, Isla. Who wouldn't? When you're grinning like that! If I noticed nothing, I would be an idiot," Sheryl answered, shaking her head.

Before telling Sheryl what had happened the previous night, Isla grabbed Sheryl's hand and got into the car with her.

It wasn't really a big deal. But for Isla, it was already pretty exciting. And she wanted to share every happy moment in her life with Sheryl.

After hearing Isla's story, Sheryl burst into laughter. She couldn't believe Isla would be so happy about this.

Isla's mother-in-law had picked up the children to stay with her for a while, and she would take care of the kids to give their parents a break. Isla could finally have some alone time with Aron. This idea cheered Isla so much. She and Aron hadn't had a sweet vacation since they had children.

"Aron's parents are very nice. I am so glad that you have such nice in-laws. If Charles'…"

Sheryl stopped abruptly when she mentioned Charles' name.

Though Isla didn't expect Charles' name to be dragged in their conversation, she was still thankful that it was Sheryl who did it. If Isla had done that, she was sure Sheryl would have been upset. And, she did not want that to happen.

"Wish me luck, Sher. By the way, since I am going away on holiday with Aron, you will be very busy in the following weeks. I will not be around to help you with work. So, make good use of me today. I will try my best to meet your needs!"

Isla promised Sheryl, putting her hand on her chest.

"For real? Like, anything?" Sheryl teased Isla while smiling.

Suddenly, Isla felt like she shouldn't have made the promise. As she looked at Sheryl, her heart tightened, and she said carefully, "Please, don't ask me to help you kill people, okay?"

"What are you thinking?" Sheryl rolled her eyes at Isla.

Soon, they came to a street full of luxury stores.

Actually, Sheryl wasn't a huge fan of luxury and fashion brands. But she had to admit that shopping was one of the best ways for women to relax and cheer up.

Though Sheryl and Isla weren't regular customers there, almost all the employees knew them. Every time they dropped by, the employees were happy to see them. Salespeople always bowed and greeted them with bright smiles.

In turn, Sheryl and Isla always felt flattered. In less than an hour, they had bought a lot of clothes.

After shopping, Isla took Sheryl to a Japanese restaurant.

For one whole day, Sheryl had a great time with Isla. Just for a moment, Sheryl forgot all the pain that Charles had caused her.

After a great day, Isla drove Sheryl back to the company. Sheryl had the office all to herself. In the midst of the silence, all the painful memories came back to haunt Sheryl again. She felt sad all over again. Sadder even than before.

She didn't want to be a two-faced person. Though she didn't want to be the saddest person in front of other people, she didn't know how long she could last. It was true that shopping with Isla could ease the burden she felt, but it only lasted for a short time. When she was alone, sadness crept into her core.
