Sheryl hesitated for a while, and then released her hands which held the glass of milk. At last, she said, “Susan had an accident.”

“I know,” Charles nodded. His voice indicated that he was not surprised.

Since the first night when they came home from Vleydon, Charles had his people keep tabs on Holley. He knew that she wouldn’t give up since she had failed to teach Sheryl a lesson. So as soon as Susan got injured, he got word of it from one of his men.

But he chose not to say anything to Sheryl because he didn’t know how to break it to her. He knew if Sheryl knew it, she would definitely blame herself.

“You knew?” Sheryl furrowed her brows as she asked in disbelief. Then she added, “Why didn’t you tell me?”

Actually Sheryl knew the answer as soon as she asked. She knew Charles didn’t tell her because he didn’t want her to worry. She gave a wry smile and stated in a melancholy voice, “It’s all my fault.”

“Sher, don’t think like that.” Charles narrowed his brows as he saw the sad expression on Sheryl’s face. She was always like that. If anything bad happened, she always thought it was her fault and she was the person who should be held accountable.

“Susan’s fracture has nothing to do with you. That’s all thanks to Holley,” Charles replied with narrowed brows.

“But if it weren’t for me, Holley wouldn’t have done anything to her.” She wore a distressed expression and stared at Charles. “You don’t know. I visited Susan in the hospital today. She was on bed rest. But she still hid her injury from me because she was afraid that something bad would also happen to me,” Sheryl added.

She gave a wry smile before she continued, “Before I came along, Holley had had some respect for Susan. But… what I brought to her is just so screwed up. Charles, I feel so guilty now.”

Sheryl picked up the glass again and poured out her thoughts, “I hate to see Susan like this. What should I do now?” “What do you want to do? No matter what, I got your back.” Charles softened his voice and tried to reassure her.

“I’ve thought about it.” Sheryl gave a deep sigh. Then she continued in determination, “Because I quit, Holley will make more trouble for Susan now that she can’t get to me. So… So I need to get Susan out of Kline Corp.”

“I feel bad the way they’ve treated her,” Sheryl added with a sad face.

“I hear you.” Charles immediately expressed his agreement. Then Charles tried to cheer Cheryl up by changing the subject. “I’m glad you’re back. I have invited some people over for dinner. Cary will be there. You can sound Cary out and ask him whether he can offer Susan a job or not. I think he likes her.”

“Okay.” Sheryl’s mood was brightened by Charles’ suggestion. If Cary was truly willing to offer Susan a job, Holley couldn’t do anything bad to Susan any more. If Susan had Cary as her backer, Holley couldn’t even be mean to her.

But she couldn’t help narrowing her brows when she thought of what Holley said to her today.

It wouldn’t be easy to get Susan out of Kline Corp.

Next morning, Sheryl got up early and went shopping. Because she needed to treat Cary today, Sheryl decided to show her sincerity by cooking on her own. As such, Nancy had to act as her assistant.
Nancy felt a little worried and said to Sheryl, “Sheryl, how about just letting me cook?”

“No, Nancy. I can handle it.” Sheryl shook her head. She added with a big smile on her face, “We have an important guest. I need to prepare the meal personally. It’s special that way.”

“But…” Nancy still hesitated.

“Nancy, could you help me wash the fish?” Sheryl tried to change the subject.
After staying busy the whole morning, Cary finally arrived at Dream Garden. Next to show up were Isla and Aron, Chris and Sam. No sooner had Isla entered than she directly walked toward the kitchen. “Sher, I heard that you quit Kline Corp. Does that mean you’re coming to work for us?”

“Can’t wait to order me around, huh? I only just quit, and you want me to get right to work. What? I don’t get a vacation?” Sheryl pretended to be angry and said this in a helpless voice.

Island was in a good mood, so she didn’t mind Sheryl’s banter. She just gave a big smile and replied, “I have no choice. My partner left suddenly, so I had to fill the gap every day, except when I was pregnant. So you need to come back quick, so I can catch a break.”

Sheryl also smiled after hearing her words. Chris came back to the kitchen too, after she idled a bit upstairs. She stared at Sheryl in the kitchen, smiling.

“Sheryl! Did you move back last night?” “Yeah,” Sheryl nodded. She didn’t think too much and added, “It was already midnight when we got home.”

“So… where did you sleep last night? Chris looked at Sheryl with a leer.

“I…” Sheryl began to stammer. She blushed and answered, “I slept in my room.”

Then Sheryl pretended to keep busy and lowered her head in order to avoid Chris’ gaze.

She felt her face burning. It must be extremely red now.

“Oh, really?” Chris asked in utter disbelief. Then Chris approached Sheryl and whispered in her ear, “Maybe… you slept with my brother last night?”

Isla was in the mood for juicy gossip. She approached Sheryl and said, “My god. Sher, you already slept with him?” Isla felt strange after saying this. Then she knew why. Sheryl and Charles were a couple. It was normal for them to sleep together.

“Bullshit.” Sheryl instantly denied this as her face turned red from shyness.

“Don’t lie to me.” Chris wasn’t willing to let Sheryl go so easily. She then stared at Sheryl with an evil leer and continued, “I just went upstairs. And I saw each piece of luggage in your room. And all the guest rooms were undisturbed. So you must have slept with him!”

“You…” Sheryl was too ashamed to answer. So she refused to give a reply with red face. “Just leave me alone, okay? You can have other guests to talk to. I’m busy here.”

“Just tell me, and I’ll leave you alone.” Chris stood beside Sheryl with a curious expression on her face, refusing to leave without the answer.

Sheryl, finally cornered, put down the stalks of celery before she gave an answer, “Okay, okay. Yes, I slept with your brother. Happy now?”

“Yes. Yes, I am,” she said laughing. Chris was still giggling as she left the kitchen.

After Chris left, Sheryl sighed, and thought, ‘Alone at last.’ But when she turned around, she saw Isla’s curious eyes. Isla instantly asked, “Sher, honestly. When…”

Sheryl blushed again and replied helplessly, “Since when are you so nosy?”

“Just tell me,” Isla urged her in a threatening voice. Sheryl had no choice but to lay it on the line. But this just earned her more teasing from Isla.
