The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 562

Holley couldn't help but giggle in her mind. 'Just like that, this aloof and arrogant man is being taken for granted by his beloved woman.'

"Hello Mister," greeted Holley who was standing in front of Charles. 'Now, I'm more beautiful and a different woman. I'm pretty sure he will never recognize that I'm Yvonne Gu, ' she thought.

To totally forget her past, she didn't only change her appearance but also her voice.

Holley offered her hand politely. Charles narrowed his eyes and hesitated for a while. Then, he extended his right hand and shook hands with the unknown woman. He withdrew his hand immediately and turned around to face Sheryl. "Why didn't you answer my call?" the man asked loudly.

Sheryl looked slightly awkward not only because of Charles booming voice, but also for the reason that she saw Holley's wry expression while shaking hands with Charles. To her immediate relief, Holley gave a little chuckle, turned her back and walked away.

However, many people stared at them. Sheryl pulled Charles' sleeves and they walked to a corner. "I was rehearsing. What are you doing here?" she asked.

Sheryl kept reminding herself that the man was just Charlie's father and nothing more.

Charles was a good observant. Sensing that Sheryl became distant, he raised his eyebrows and felt a little annoyed. Despite this, he pretended to look calm as if nothing had happened. "I came here and met my client in that nearby building. I know you live here, so I decided to pass by and see you. I'm planning to hold a birthday party for Charlie on Saturday night. Would you like to join us?" he invited.

"Saturday?" Sheryl mumbled to herself in surprise. "This coming Saturday is Charlie's birthday?" she asked, dumbfounded.

'Shirley's birthday is also that day. What a coincidence!' she said to herself.

"No, it's not his birthday," Charles replied. "Charlie's birthday had already passed, but I still want to hold a birthday party for him. I acknowledged him as my son very recently, so, I owed him a lot. I only want to make amends," he explained, as his eyes darkened with sadness.

With a smile, he changed the subject immediately. "You will leave after finishing the show. Charlie likes you so much. I think he would really love to see you attend his party. I hope you can fulfill his wish," he said in a relaxed tone.

The coming Saturday would be the third year anniversary of Autumn's death. In the past three years, Charles regularly visited the depot to reminisce on how they met. But now, he found his wife, so he surmised that there was no need to visit the place again.

He also intended to share the "Sheryl" news with his friends and family at the party.

"But..." Sheryl frowned. 'BM Corporation is scheduled to hold a celebration party that day. As their model, I can't be absent from it.

I've already excused myself from the previous important meeting, I couldn't do it again, ' she said to herself, not knowing what to do.

"What's wrong Sheryl? Do you have other appointment on that day?" Charles asked assertively.

"I'm... I'm free on that day," Sheryl answered, as she came back to her senses. "Okay, I'll be there," she agreed.

'Charlie's birthday party is more important than that dull celebration party, ' she thought.

"Well, then I will arrange a car for you that day," Charles ended with a bright smile.
