The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 2124

Rob tried his best to remain patient and explain everything to her in a detailed manner. Even though it was beyond impossible for her to completely understand it, she pretended like she was sympathetic to his words. Moreover, she had no choice. One thing she knew for sure was that as long as Charles was still alive, she had no chance of survival.

Life had put her in a difficult position.

There was no way back, whether she wanted it or not.

"Okay, Rob. I promise to complete the task this time. Thank you for giving me this chance," Vicky promised.

In fact, she had another thought. If she could take advantage of Charles' incident to get rid of her two biggest enemies, she would love to it. Payback was something she craved. She was so immersed in this thought that she didn't even care about her life.

In fact, death was something she was willing to welcome. Finally, her mind would receive the rest it needed. She could let go of the things that were bothering her. And when she reached the netherworld, she was positive she would meet Bernard again.

Seeing that Vicky was being nice to him, Rob softened his tone, saying, "I'll give you three days. But be careful because you know very well what will happen if you should fail."

"Yes, I know. I will definitely complete the task."

After hanging up the phone, Vicky fell to the ground as if she had been exhausted.

She was still shocked by what she had heard. She had never expected that one day, Charles' life would be in her hands.

Great!

While she was still thinking about this, another important thought popped into her mind. 'How am I going to enter the hospital and get some alone time with Charles?' she wondered. She knew this wouldn't be an easy task.

In the hospital

Sheryl had come to visit Charles like she had been doing every day. As soon as she walked out of the elevator, she and her kids were stopped by two men.

Looking up, she noticed these men were tall and strong.

Sheryl frowned and was about to ask what had happened when David rushed over from another direction.

"Let go of Sheryl!" David called out.

The two men in black, who blocked Sheryl, hurriedly moved aside and nodded as one of them apologized, "I'm sorry, President Xia."

All this left Sheryl feeling confused. Seeing the startled look on Sheryl's face, David walked up and explained with a smile, "President Xia, I'm really sorry. For Mr. Lu's personal safety, the upper and lower floors of this building are now being controlled by our people. Without special order, no one is allowed to get in or out anymore."

Sheryl listened carefully as David spoke. But her astonishment still remained.

"You mean someone is after Charles?" Sheryl asked, feeling fear creep into her body.

David nodded and carried on, "To put it simply, Mr. Lu's car accident was not actually an accident. It was a well-planned scheme. The police called and informed us that Mr. Lu's car had been vandalized, and the truck that hit him had been stolen a few days ago."

"Did the surveillance camera catch the culprit?"

"Since it was all planned, they were fully covered. The camera got nothing and, so as far as we know, that person is roaming around freely."

This incident had left David shocked. Mr. Lu had always been a cautious man. The fact that he had been deceived this time was beyond David's understanding. 'And who could be so bold to assault Mr. Lu openly in the city?' he wondered.

Sheryl, on the other hand, grew more and more concerned. It had never occurred to Sheryl that Charles' car accident wasn't merely an accident. She wondered if she had to tell David that Charles had gone to meet Vicky.
