The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 624

"Charlie, hurry and get my phone. It's in my room." Upon getting his phone, Charles quickly called their family doctor. A few minutes later, Doctor Hu arrived and rushed to see Sheryl. He gave her a quick physical examination. He didn't find anything wrong with Sheryl. It seemed like Sheryl was struck by something which scared her and made her faint.

"Doctor Hu, what happened? What's wrong with Sher?" Sheryl's forehead was covered with sweat. Charles noticed it but couldn't do anything to help her. For him, that kind of feeling really sucked.

"Well, there's nothing wrong with her, Charles. She's perfectly fine!" The doctor replied as he packed up his stuff. "She might have experienced a panic attack after something hit her. She will be better after a good rest."

"That's impossible!" Nothing struck Sheryl. She just started to sweat and turned into this condition all of a sudden. Charles pulled the doctor's shirt collar and ordered nervously,"Give her another checkup. Make it more thorough and careful this time. Please hurry up!"

"Charles…" Doctor Hu was quite familiar with Charles. He didn't intend to hide anything from the latter. He wrinkled his eyebrows and explained,"I remember, you told me that she lost her memory. Perhaps she just remembered something from her past which made her panic and lose consciousness."

"Are you trying to say that she might get her memory back and recall what happened before?" asked Charles.

"Yes." Nodding his head, Doctor Hu continued,"Her memory loss was induced by a medicine. Normally, meeting familiar people or being in a familiar environment could trigger her brain to access all sorts of memories, including the inactive ones. However, it seemed that what happened in her past was torture for her. Therefore, it might not be advisable for Sheryl to remember everything."

Doctor Hu gave Charles a glance and added,"Think about it."

What the doctor said really made sense. Charles was at a loss. He didn't know how to respond nor did he know what to do. On the other hand, he really wished that Sheryl would regain her memory. In that way, he would at least know what happened three years ago.

If what happened in the past was too painful for Sheryl, then what was the point of remembering all those things?

After seeing off the doctor, Charles held Sheryl into his arms and carried her into the bedroom. He laid her down on the bed. Sheryl still looked very anxious. She was sweating so Charles wiped off the sweat from her forehead. When he was about to take the two kids to the dining room for breakfast, Sheryl suddenly grabbed his hand. "No! Please don't hurt my baby."

Although she couldn't remember what happened in the past, Sheryl had recurring nightmares. Charles felt sorry and sad just by watching her in agony.

Charles squeezed Sheryl's hand firmly. He really wished he could take all the pain and suffering from her. She didn't deserve to go through all those painful experiences.

"Charlie," Charles uttered as he turned around,"please go to the dining room with Shirley and have your breakfast first. I'll stay here with Sher."

"Uncle Charles." Shirley was a little scared. She inquired,"Is Sher going to be okay?"

"Sure, she'll be okay. Don't worry sweetie. I'll look after her," Charles promised and gave a smile to Shirley.

Reassured by Charles' words, Shirley went downstairs with Charlie. Sheryl was still in a daze. She grabbed Charles' hand firmly as if she was holding a life vest.

Sitting next to Sheryl on the bed, Charles felt really bad watching Sheryl having a nightmare. Her eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

Sheryl was having an extended dream. In her dream, she just gave birth to a baby boy. She clearly saw that the baby boy had the same birthmark on the wrist just like Charlie's. Then, a woman barged in and hurriedly took her baby away. Sheryl wanted to know who she was. But no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't see the woman's face.
