The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 823

Sheryl had no idea what Roger and Helin were talking about after she left. She wanted to tell Charles that she wanted to leave, but decided to wait for him on the side instead, when she saw him talking to someone else.

Even though Charles was talking to Heron He, he still paid Sheryl glances at times to see how she was doing.

Worry grew on his face when his eyes darted on an empty space where Sheryl was supposed to be standing. He searched around with the hope to see her. Luckily, he felt relieved when he noticed Sheryl standing at a spot close to him. She was looking at him.

Not wanting Sheryl to wait any longer, he hastily told Heron He, "Mr. He, I still have something else to do later. Please excuse me first."

"Yes, of course." After a short conversation with Charles, Heron He felt satisfied that a partnership had been made. Smiling widely at Charles, he said, "Mr. Lu, shall we confirm the partnership then? If yes, I'll ask my men to send you the contracts later."

"Alright," said Charles with a nod. After parting with Heron He, he immediately walked towards Sheryl and asked, "Why are you here? Is there anything wrong?"

"It's alright." Sheryl smiled at him gently and continued, "If you have something important to discuss, just go ahead. Don't worry about me."

"I don't have any other things to do now; all the important discussions are done," Charles said indifferently. "Shall we go?"

"Okay, sure." Sheryl nodded gently. It was impossible to eat anything properly while on a wine reception, so Charles took her elsewhere for some light food.

Helin only decided to bring Roger to Heron He when Charles and Sheryl had left. With a curious look on her face, she asked her father, "Dad, what were you discussing with him?"

Heron He seemed to be in a pretty good mood. "Darling, you came just in time. I have just confirmed a partnership with Mr. Lu. To make it more interesting, he agreed to have you as the endorser of his company's brand, 'Kelly'. You should personally go to the Shining Company later. But remember, don't upset him with your tantrum, or else even I can't help you with it. Do you understand?"

"Yes Dad, I got it," Helin answered cheerfully.

Her brows were inseparable. She was worried that if she had displeased Sheryl, it would let the whole thing fall through. Heron He would get angry if that happened.

"Congratulations, Mr. He," Roger uttered with a smile as he faced Heron He.

Heron He patted Roger's shoulder and said, "Your contribution to the agreement was really undeniable. If you had not invited Mr. Lu, I don't think I'll ever have this opportunity. Tell me, what rewards do you want?"

"I..." Roger hesitated and gave him a modest smile as he said, "Don't mention it, Mr. He. This is what I'm supposed to do."

Heron He's smile deepened with satisfaction at Roger's words.

Helin turned to Roger to give him a small nudge and said, "Roger, it's not easy to get a chance like this. This is a rare opportunity. You don't have to be so courteous to my father."

Helin smiled as she held his father's arm lovingly and said, "Dad, you mentioned before that our company has this drama adaptation of a popular novel which will start filming by the end of the year. But, the male lead has not been confirmed yet, right? How about Roger? What do you think?"

Helin gave her father a sweet smile and then went on, "Roger is one of the hottest young celebrities in our company now. Popular shows like this will get more interests with actors that are young and popular, don't you think? And Roger's image fits the description of the leading character of that show. Should we…"
