The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 2032

It was a tranquil night.

Charles was just staring at his phone. He couldn't believe that Sheryl would be so heartless as to not answer his call.

However, this was the cold harsh truth that he had to face. He felt bitterness filling his heart.

What was he still expecting? It was he who'd ended their relationship. Everything was his decision. It was all his fault.

Now that Sheryl had chosen to leave him and pursue her own life, his heart was in pain. He couldn't have imagined that it would be this painful, even though his separation from Sheryl was only recent. It still hurt very much.

Was he going to lose the woman he loved?

Charles stared blankly at his phone. After a long time, there was still no response from Sheryl. Taking a deep breath, he forced himself to go back to bed.

Meanwhile, Sheryl had just made sure that the children were asleep. When she glanced at her phone, she was surprised to find someone had called her.

Her heart instantly skipped a beat. Charles was the last name she'd expected.

They hadn't talked since the divorce.

She'd noticed that there was only one missed call. 'Well, it probably wasn't urgent, or he would have called more than once, ' she thought to herself.

Sheryl heaved a sigh. She set her phone aside and kept gazing up at the ceiling. She felt like she was back in Dream Garden again.

Even though it was Isla who had chosen this place, the colors and decorations were similar to the ones in Dream Garden. Was it meant to be that way?

However, she didn't think that was a good sign as she thought that she and Charles weren't meant to be together.

Charles had only called this one time, and she had missed it. Was fate saying something?

Sheryl really wasn't the type who enjoyed being on her phone the whole time. However, because of the nature of her work, she had to constantly keep her phone with her as she needed to attend to her clients' needs whenever they contacted her. However, that night, she'd just decided to check on her kids, which made her miss the call.

It was already past midnight.

Sheryl took a deep breath and forced herself to go to sleep.

In Australia

The sun was beaming over the balcony. The lush trees just outside the window seemed to be enjoying the sunlight.

The bedroom was furnished in a simple style. A man with a tall build was lying in the bed, as if asleep.

Half of his face was being covered by his blanket, which left only the other half of his face exposed. One could only see part of his lips and his thick brows.

Still, the man was handsome. His nose was sharp and angled, which only added to his handsomeness.

"No! Please don't leave..." the man shouted out suddenly.

His eyes were still closed, his lips were pursed, and his brows were knitted together.

"Sher, come back...Come back...Back..." The man continued to murmur to himself as he reached out his hands as if he was trying to grab something.
