The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 692

Anthony was at first stunned to be questioned by Charles. But then he recovered quickly.

Anthony turned to Charles and said,"Mr. Lu, are you kidding me when you ask me about the baby's whereabouts!"

"Spare me all this pretence and nonsense!" Charles flew into rage at Anthony's refusal to tell him the truth. He jabbed a finger towards him and bellowed,"It was you who spirited Sheryl away to America. It is you who should be responsible for her amnesia. It is only you who know where the baby is." Charles then grabbed Anthony by the collar and threatened him with undesirable consequences if he did not relent and tell Charles everything.

"Let go of me!" Anthony gave a cold smile and challenged Charles,"Yes, I have knowledge of the little one's hiding place. I choose to keep it away from you. There is nothing you can do about it!"

Anthony cast a contemptuous glance at Charles and said,"You did not come to Sheryl's rescue when she was in deep misfortune. Now you come to pester her and put an end to her comfortable and secure life."

Anthony sneered,"Charles, it would be better for you to walk out of Sheryl's life."

It was Sheryl who had been determined to take the pill in order to forget her past. However, Anthony was facing the music for that after the lapse of three years.

"I am supposed to walk out of Sheryl's life? Me?" Charles echoed Anthony's words in a sarcastic voice,"It was you who induced Autumn to drug herself when she was at her weakest. Anthony, you have craftily hidden your improper thoughts and lust for her. Do not dare to interfere in our conjugal affair. Last but not the least, the baby is innocent. I will not see him harmed in any way. Now please tell me where the baby is."

At the beginning, Anthony had felt somewhat guilty to wrest Sheryl from Charles. After all, Sheryl had been drugged by Nancy at that time and had lost her cool.

Subsequently, she had forgot her past including her marriage with Charles.

At the beginning, Anthony had instituted many careful searches to find Leila and Charlie. He discontinued his efforts after having learning that Leila would take good care of the little baby.

As his affinity and intimacy with Sheryl grew, Anthony stopped thinking about the matter and focused only on Sheryl and Shirley.

When he returned to Y City with Sheryl, he met Charlie again. He was happy to find the little boy well cared for by Charles. Thus, his guilt was somewhat quelled.

"You can rest assured. The baby is safe and sound." Anthony broke free Charles's fist and said,"Charles, I can tell you where the little boy is being concealed on the condition that we negotiate a deal."

"A deal?" Charles became suspicious and questioned Anthony,"What kind of deal?"

"Since you are dying to know your little baby's hiding place," Anthony grinned and continued,"I will give you the information provided you promise to stay away from Sheryl."
