The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 852

Sue grasped Sheryl's arm and said, "Sher, I'm so sorry. It's all my fault. I just wanted to know why he came to see me."

Sheryl looked at Sue. "Just look at you, I really don't understand. I'm confused by what you really want. You said firmly that you didn't want to see him any more, but here you are trying to find out why he came to you. What on earth do you want to do with him? Do you really want to forget about him or not?"

Sue gave her a pitiful smile. "Forgetting about him? It's much easier said than done. Maybe I need some more time."

Sheryl couldn't stand to see her upset. "Do you really want to know what he wanted? It's no big deal. He just came to ask me if you were okay and wanted to make up with you. That's it."

Sue scoffed, "Make up with me?

I don't need that. Does he really think that he can make up with me so easily?"

Sheryl took her hand and said affectionately, "Mimi, I've thought about it a lot these days and I'm okay with it if you don't want to be with Anthony. It would be kind of a relief for you. Besides, neither of you would be happy together. He's not worthy of your love.

I'm not saying that Anthony is a bad guy. The problem is that he doesn't love you. No matter how much you love him, he can't accept it and give it back. So all you get is nothing but pain in return. If I were you I would rather stay away from him than suffer in a loveless relationship."

There was no denying that Sue was still hoping for some love from Anthony, but she lost all hope after that. Sheryl was clear that she could never be the one. Thinking about that made her feel down in the dumps. But, despite how she felt, she gave Sheryl a smile. "Thank you, Sher. I know what to do. Don't worry about me."

Sue turned and walked away. Sheryl didn't go after her, because she knew that Sue needed time to cool off. She would go and comfort later when she had calmed down a bit.

After all. no one could help her but herself.

In the Xiao family house

Since the quarrel with Carson, things had been fairly tame with Laura, but that was all about to change. Laura wanted to question Anthony about Sue since she hadn't seen her in days.

She waited until after dinner.

"Anthony, wait, let's talk." She paused for a moment to gather her thoughts.

Anthony was already highly strung. A whole day had passed since he had asked his people to look for Sue and there was still no news of her whereabouts. He was at a loss with what to do. He frowned when Laura stopped him. "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Laura smiled warmly and replied, "Nothing serious. It's just that I haven't seen Sue for a long time. I just want to know if she's okay. Has she been too busy working these days?"

Anthony was in no mood to be questioned. "She's fine," he replied flatly. Laura seemed relieved but continued to prod, "Well, since she's fine, why don't you invite her to dinner? I've haven't seen her for a long time."
