The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1950

"Daddy, go and get Mom!" Clark never gave up believing that his parents would get back together. His age didn't stop him from believing.

Charles looked at Clark, seemingly deep in thought. Suddenly, he grinned.

"Okay, I'm on my way now." Charles planted a kiss on each of his kids' foreheads. Then he quickened his pace as he headed to the guest bedroom.

Charles made sure he was quiet, so Sheryl didn't hear him.

He was relieved when he saw that she was sleeping.

He made his way to Sheryl and lay down next to her. He gently pulled her into his arms. She stirred slightly, which made Charles nervous. Fortunately, she didn't wake up.

It had been so long since they had last snuggled with each other.

Charles slept well for the rest of the morning. For some reason, Sheryl did too. They both felt safe and comfortable.

That night, Sheryl had had a dream. In her dream, she and Charles had gotten back together, and they were both happy.

It was going to be a good day. Sheryl slowly opened her eyes.

She lifted one hand to block her the sunlight from her face. She immediately dodged to the side when she realized that there was someone right next to her.

Charles was already awake, and he had been gently gazing at Sheryl since he'd woken up.

Sheryl grew embarrassed under his gaze. She looked away, trying to avoid his eyes. After a while, she suddenly said angrily, "What are you doing here?"

"It's Clark and Shirley. They wanted us to make up, and they asked me to do this," Charles answered simply.

Sheryl couldn't help but look at Charles upon the mention of their kids.

"Sheryl, I know you're probably angry. I wouldn't blame you if you were, but I promise you that this time will be different, and it won't happen again. Would you please give me another chance?" Charles looked at Sheryl tenderly. He looked quite sincere.

Sheryl kept averting her gaze–she knew if she met his eyes, she wouldn't be able to resist him.

"President Lu, kindly go out first as I need to change my clothes," Sheryl said coldly as she glared at Charles.

Charles had never seen Sheryl behave like this. While it made him uncomfortable, he knew he had no choice but to follow. He then got out of bed and left.

Sheryl heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the door close.

She didn't know what to do. She felt like she was being mentally tortured and knew she had to do something about it.

Meanwhile, Charles prepared breakfast, which the kids ate happily, partly because they thought their parents had already made up. After just a few bites of breakfast, they started to whine to Sheryl to take them out.

"Clark, be a good boy. Finish your breakfast, first, then we'll go out, okay?"

"Okay. Dad will drive. We'll all go out!" Shirley beamed at Sheryl.

Sheryl's face shifted when the kids invited Charles too.

Charles immediately nodded his head. "Okay, I'll drive."

Sheryl wasn't able to say anything. She didn't have a choice since the kids were there.

Charles' lips curled into a smile when he realized that his plan had worked. He lowered his head so that no one would see.

However, Sheryl's eyes were sharp. She kicked him under the table and rolled her eyes at him in response.

Charles widened his smile in response. He was quite excited.
