ENCHANTED LOVE - Season 7 Episode 98

Charles felt slightly upset. He knew that although Sheryl already got closer to him, she still treated him as an acquaintance. That was still far from what he really wanted.

But it didn’t matter. Since he was able to take Sheryl here today, he also believed that could achieve his goal someday. In time, he could get together with Sheryl again.

He glimpsed at Sheryl before he said, “Stop what you’re doing for now. I’m going to take you out to dinner.”

“Now?” Sheryl paused for a while and replied surprisingly. Charlie held Sheryl’s hand and looked up to her with his innocent eyes. “Sher, I am hungry. Let’s go eat now.”

“Okay…” Sheryl shrugged. She couldn’t refuse Charlie’s innocent pleading look.

Charles laughed inside him. Charlie was absolutely an incredible help at some important times like this.

Charles continued to carry Shirley in his arms since he already picked her up earlier. Sheryl, on the other hand, held Charlie’s hand and walked slowly after Charles. From afar, one would think that they were one happy family.

When they passed by Alice’s room, Sheryl asked, “Where are David and Alice? How about we invite them to join us for dinner?”

“No, we don’t need to invite them,” Charles said in a calm voice. It took him great efforts to have such an opportunity to be alone with Sheryl. How could he allow someone to be a gooseberry? Even if he knocked on their door and invited them, they would definitely not dare to say yes.

For Sheryl not to notice his reluctance, he immediately added, “They must be out by now. As a love-struck couple, they didn’t get a lot of chances to go out together. So, now that they got their chance, we shouldn’t be gooseberries.”

“It seems that you are a boss with a big heart,” Sheryl commented with a smile. When the four of them reached outside of the house, a service car was already waiting for them. As they got in, Sheryl suddenly asked, “Is the restaurant far from here?”

“You’ll know it when we get there,” Charles answered meaningfully.

Five minutes later, the car stopped. When they got off, Sheryl found out that they were in a vast farmland surrounded by all kinds of seasonal fruits and vegetables. There was also a wide river not too far. Standing in the middle of the field, one could catch a whiff of harvests carried by the wind.

“Wow! This place is great!” Sheryl exclaimed in excitement.

She had always wished to find a place like this to live in. When she was not busy, she could grow vegetables and flowers. She believed that, only in a slow pace could one enjoy life truly.

But since she was living in a bustling city, how could she find such a bucolic place like this?

“Do you like it here?” Charles asked vigorously. Seeing Sheryl’s happy expression, Charles knew that he’d chosen the right place.

“Yes, I like it here!” Sheryl nodded her head enthusiastically.

“I’m glad you liked it,” Charles said with a smile as he looked lovingly to Sheryl. “Let’s order?” Charles pointed at the field and said, “The ingredients of our order will be coming from this farm. What would you like to eat? I can pick the ingredients for you.”

“Really?” Sheryl’s eyes glistened with too much excitement. “No, I want to pick them myself,” she answered as her eyes landed on the purple eggplants near them. She couldn’t help licking her lips as if a very delicious meal were in front of her.

Since this was her first time harvesting fruits and vegetables by herself, she couldn’t contain her excitement. She happily picked some eggplants and put them in a basket. Next were the lentils that caught her eyes. If the basket could only have more space, she wouldn’t stop picking more vegetables.

She only realized that she had picked too much when she stopped and checked her basket. She got anxious thinking that they wouldn’t be able to eat them all.

Beside the farmland stood a wooden house which looked like a restaurant. Charles led them to enter. The waiter immediately approached them upon seeing them entering the door. He greeted them before he said, “Mr. Taylor, as we knew that you are coming, we have already stewed the fish earlier. Should I serve it now?”

“Okay, serve it,” Charles replied briefly. He handed over the basket to the waiter and said, “Cook these vegetables and serve them quickly.”

“Okay, Mr. Taylor,” the waiter answered respectfully. After the waiter had left, Charles brought Sheryl and the two kids to a table beside the window. Sheryl looked around and asked, “Why aren’t Kitty and the other models here?”

“Do you want to eat with them?” Charles asked while pouring tea to Sheryl’s glass.

Sheryl shook her head and replied, “Of course not! I just thought that… we would be eating altogether.”

Charles cast a glance at Sheryl and said, “If you don’t want to, you don’t need to compromise anything. Take a sip of the tea.” Charles managed to change the topic.

Sheryl tried it and asked, “Is this a ptisan?”

“Yes, it is.” Charles nodded slightly. “The barley in it was grown here. I think you’ll like it.”

“Everything here is so good. I never knew there is a place like this here in Ylanbu.” Sheryl expressed her strong appreciation of the place.

“Oh…” Sheryl suddenly remembered how courteous the waiter was to Charles earlier. So she asked half-jokingly, “Does this place belong to you?”

“No, this place is not mine.” Charles shook his head lightly. “Do you remember Eric?” he added. “He is the owner of the hotel you stayed before.”

“Yes, I remember him. Does he own this too?” Sheryl was a little surprised.

“Yes, he does. But I am also one of the shareholders here so you can do whatever you want.” Charles nodded and replied to her softly. Sheryl could no longer hold her delight upon hearing Charles’ words.

After a few minutes, the waiter served their dishes: a large pot of casserole and fragrant fish soup, all of which made them salivating. Shirley ate a large bowl of soup. Even Charlie ate more soup than ever.
.Sheryl contentedly finished a bowl of soup and exclaimed, “The soup is so delicious. If this place is just near our home, I’ll definitely come here every day to have this.”

“I can take you here anytime you feel like drinking this kind of soup,” Charles sincerely offered. But Sheryl chose not to respond anymore and indulged herself in eating.

She thought that since the fish soup with tofu was unexpectedly delicious, how much more were the fresh vegetables that she personally picked. Excitedly, she gave it a try. And she was right, this was by far the most delicious vegetables she had ever eaten.

“Is it delicious?” Charles looked at Sheryl with a smile. As long as Sheryl liked it, all his efforts were worth it.

Meanwhile, while Sheryl was enjoying her dinner with Charles and the kids, Kitty was left fuming in her room.

She thought that if no one would be willing to share a room with Sheryl, she would feel too ashamed to stay. All she really wanted was for Sheryl to go back to the city. However, she didn’t expect that Charles would save her and would even let her stay with his secretary.

After making some inquiries, she found out that Charles was one of the biggest shareholders of this mountain resort. What was worst was, Sheryl didn’t even stay in the same building as them.

She spent a long time looking for Sheryl but unfortunately, she couldn’t really find them. She only saw Alice and David having dinner together at the dining hall. She had a strong feeling that Sheryl was already having dinner with Charles this time.

“I knew it!” one model exclaimed excitedly. Those models who got along with Kitty very well got together in her room and discussed how to cause troubles for Sheryl.
