The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 2095

The following day, Sheryl woke up later than usual, which was a rarity.

Sheryl was used to getting up as early as Clark and Shirley. The kids needed to get to school early, and she had wanted to make breakfast for them.

So she couldn't help but wonder why she had gotten up so late that day.

Sheryl pressed her hands against her forehead. She was feeling dizzy. The previous night, she wasn't able to sleep as she was having nightmares. While she couldn't exactly remember what her nightmare was, she remembered very well that she felt helpless in her dream. Thus, she wasn't able to sleep well.

She didn't even have time to shower anymore. She hurriedly dressed up before going to the kids' room. It turned out that the kids were already at school as she had expected. Joan had been so busy with work around the house and taking care of the kids, especially the past few days, that she decided to give Joan another raise.

Sheryl was deep in thought as she went back to her room to take a shower since she now had time. When she went downstairs, Joan was just coming in.

"Ms. Xia, good morning." Joan saw Sheryl standing in the living room as soon as she came in. She then asked, "Have you had breakfast? I can prepare your breakfast."

"Relax, Joan. Are the kids at school already?"

Joan put down her bag and said, "Yes, they're already at school. You just got out of the hospital. You should rest first. I can help with the children. Don't worry about it."

"Thank you very much!" Sheryl said sincerely.

Joan's face flushed upon hearing this. She smiled back and said, "Well, it's my job to take care of you and the children. You're the best employer I've had. Okay, I need to prepare your breakfast now. I'll call you when it's ready."

Joan hurried to the kitchen to make breakfast. As Sheryl watched her, she couldn't help but feel warm inside.

All of a sudden, Sheryl felt happy and satisfied with her life right now.

As long as she left behind the people who weren't good to her, she could actually be happy.

After Sheryl had breakfast, she helped Joan clean the kitchen. Then she went to their small balcony garden. She was happy to see that the flowers she had planted were already blooming. She started removing weeds and spraying the flowers with pesticides.

After that, it was time to have lunch. Sheryl wiped away the sweat on her forehead and took a deep breath.

When she was done working on the small garden, she didn't feel dizzy anymore. She beamed at the blooming flowers that she had planted.

In the kitchen, Joan was making lunch. Upon seeing Sheryl enter the apartment, she said, "Ms. Xia, why don't you clean up first before having your lunch? You're sweating!"

Sheryl nodded in agreement, then headed upstairs.

When she returned to her bedroom, she noticed that her phone was buzzing with new messages. Upon checking it, she saw that the messages were from Damian.

"Sher, have you had lunch? What are you going to eat? You just got out of the hospital. You should be eating only healthy food. Make sure you're eating right!"

"It's a fine day today. Why don't you take a walk outside? So you're not just at home. Go out and smell the flowers!"

"I didn't realize the time! What are you doing?"

As Sheryl read through the messages, she was overwhelmed with mixed emotions. She read the messages again and again. She then realized that Damian was just being a good friend to her. He hadn't said anything that made Sheryl suspect otherwise.

Sheryl put down her phone and sighed.

After hesitating for a while, she finally wrote back a response. It read, "I'm getting ready for lunch. Thanks for the advice."

Not a second had passed when Damian sent back a response.

"What are you going to eat?"

Sheryl was taken aback, and she responded, "I don't know."

Damian shot back a message at once.

"Make sure that you eat something light."
