ENCHANTED LOVE, VOLUME 2 - Season 8 Episode 94

“I’m alright, Grandpa.” Sheryl smiled and asked, “Why are you here?”

Laura’s harsh words annoyed Arthur. He inquired, “Who did you scold just now?” “Her, of course,” Laura said with a sneer and pointed at Sheryl.

Arthur cast a contemptuous glance at Laura. “Your son is not good enough for my Sher. So you don’t have to worry about her ever reuniting with your son.

Even if she has to stay single forever, she will never get involved with Anthony again. I can easily support her and she will never have to depend on any man, least of your Anthony.”

“How can I believe you? Even if I believe you, I do not trust her,” Laura smiled coldly and said. “I need her to put her promise in writing. If she still pursues Anthony after that, I will reveal it to the public and let everyone in this city know she is an immoral woman.”

“Laura! Be in your limits. Don’t cause more trouble or I will divorce you immediately!” Carlson indignantly said. He was highly embarrassed at her crude behaviour. His face showed anger. He stared at Laura with serious eyes and said, “Believe me. I’m not kidding you.”

“Okay, just do as you wish.” Laura wasn’t frightened by Carlson’s threat. He had threatened her with divorce previously also but they were just empty words. She said to Carlson, “Don’t you dare threaten me. I will settle this matter with Sheryl today and nobody can stop me.”

“Mom, please stop. You are going too far!” Anthony looked at Sheryl with guilty eyes. He was embarrassed to come to the police station for a trivial matter and his embarrassment got increased at his parents’ arguement. He knew Laura was in the wrong so he tried to persuade her to stop.

“Both you and your father are so stupid. Why do you want to support this bitch?” Laura got even angrier. She snapped at Sue, “Why are you so silent? Don’t you want to marry Anthony? Are you not always plotting to win his affection?”

“Mrs. Clark, I…” Sue was speechless. She did not know what to say.

As Sheryl’s friend, she knew that Sheryl was not someone to tolerate being bullied.

However, now she was silently tolerating Laura for Sue’s sake.

Laura was still not done with her tirade. Sue really didn’t know how to deal with this situation now.

“Fine. I know you too are just as useless as these two here.” Laura glared angrily at Sue as she gestured towards Anthony and Sheryl. She then said very harshly, “Anyway, I won’t spare her until I have a written promise from her.”

Arthur was thoroughly irritated by Laura’s ridiculous demand. He turned to Carlson and said, “Look at your wife. She is a crazy woman! If you father were still alive, he would be so ashamed of her.”

“Mr. Murphy, I am sorry for her behavior. It is my fault that she has become so adamant and vicious. She fails to respect others’ emotions. Please go home and I will deal with her,” Carlson apologized to Arthur.

Arthur sneered, “You promised me this the last time also. But clearly you have no control over your wife. She is still harassing Sheryl. I warn you that I will not tolerate this further and will deal with this in the manner I see fit.”

“Don’t…” Carlson was embarrassed and he pushed Laura forward. “Apologize to Mr. Murphy!” Carlson ordered her.

“Apologize? For what? Why should I?” Laura looked at Carlson with angry, puzzled eyes. “I didn’t do anything wrong. So why will I apologize to him?”

“She doesn’t have to apologize.” Sheryl looked at Laura very coldly and said, “The relationship between Anthony and me is totally over. Ylanbu is so big that we need never to cross paths again. I will move out of this apartment and find somewhere else to live. Then he can live happily with Sue and need never see me again. I assure you that we will never get involved with each other ever again.”

She glanced at Laura and added, “I will not give you anything in writing right now. But if I break my words or if you see Anthony with me again, I will put it in writing and you can do as you please with that paper. I trust this will meet your satisfaction?”

“Okay. That sounds reasonable.” Laura smiled victoriously at Sheryl’s promise. She looked at Sheryl and warned, “You better remember what you just said. Don’t try to break your words.”

“Rest assured. I will do as I said. I do not break my promises,” Sheryl said in a cold voice. She turned and said to Arthur, “Grandpa, let’s go home now.”

“Sher…” Sue arched her eyebrows and called her. “Will you really move out?”

She knew Sheryl wouldn’t move to Charles’ house. She also would not bother Arthur even though he was her grandpa. This apartment was arranged by their company so if she rented another house on her own, it would cost more money. Sheryl’s life would become very difficult.

Sue realized that her conflict with Sheryl had happened only over Anthony. They never had any problems otherwise.

Sue couldn’t help but be concerned about Sheryl’s decision.

“Yes, I will move out as soon as possible.” Sheryl nodded and added, “Please don’t mind if I don’t say goodbye to you when I move out.”

“Sher, you don’t have to move out.” Sue smiled bitterly. “I know you have broken off completely with Anthony and I trust you, so…”

“Sue, what are you saying?” Laura hissed at Sue. She pulled at Sue’s sleeve and asked, “Do you remember that you have to side with me? I am doing all this for your secure future. Just let her move out if she wants to. You can be more relaxed if she leaves, so why are you stopping her?”

“But Sher is…” Sue still felt sorry for Sheryl. She looked at Sheryl and said, “How about I move? I live alone and it will be easier for me to make the move.”
“No!” Laura said firmly. “Let her move! Are you not worried that Anthony will meet her secretly if she still lives at the old address?”

She glanced at Sheryl and said, “Don’t you dare inform Anthony of your new address. Otherwise…”

Sheryl just gave her a cold look and replied, “Don’t worry. It is also my wish to stay far away from you and your son. I won’t commit the mistake of informing my new address to any of you.”
