His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1114 Not So Serious

Charles sounded upset. He was in a complete mess in his mind. Things just went out of the hands, and

they could do nothing about it. It was a mix of embarrassment, humiliation, and helplessness that came

out in the form of anger. There was complete silence between Charles and Sheryl. She could hardly

bring herself to look into his eyes.

Sheryl went numb after what had happened. The only sensation she could feel in her heart was just a

sting of seeing Charles seething in anger. She thought he was angry just because he did not believe in

her.

She had lost her voice. Her eyes were burning in rage. She just lowered her head and tried with all her

might to accept what she had just gone through.

After all the back-breaking hard work she had put in to make this project a grand success, the last thing

she had expected was being stabbed by the client in this manner. As the situation turned out, Sheryl

had fallen prey to Rachel's plot. She had been used as a pawn and thrown out after serving the

purpose.

Just as Sheryl could not look at Charles, even he avoided eye contact with her. There was complete

silence between the two of them as the car zoomed out of the parking lot. After a long time, he turned

his head and glanced at Sheryl.

And in that one glance, his heart wrenched as he saw Sheryl silently shedding tears in her seat.

"Sher…I-I don't mean that, Sher. I believe you. I am just worried about how to deal with those reporters,

and how to suppress those reports!" Charles explained anxiously. He knew that he was the only person

whom Sheryl could turn to for support at this hour of despair. He tried to comfort her.

Sheryl's mood was a bit calmer, but she was still a little angry.

"Well, wipe your tears, okay? It was entirely my fault. I didn't check the details of Tarsan Corporation at

first. That is the reason that led you to face such a big debacle." Charles took the blame on himself as

he handed over the napkin to Sheryl. "Don't cry, Sher. You look so beautiful now. If you continue crying,

your makeup will be smudged." He smiled at her as he tried to divert her mind. She tried to

acknowledge his efforts to make her feel better and force a smile, but her eyes could not conceal the

pain in her heart. Tears oozed out of them uncontrollably. As she wiped her tears with the napkin, she

broke into a suppressed sob.

At the same time in the wine party, Rachel and Holley were very happy at first. Initially, everything went

on as their plans. However, Charles' intervention in their revenge drama played a spoiler to their game.

It came as something like a foul dessert after a wonderful meal that marred the enjoyment completely.

Rachel was very angry and jealous. Sheryl cheated on him in front of so many famous businessmen in

Y City. Yet he still helped her and protected her from all the gossips!

Rachel was fuming in anger to see the strong bond between Charles and Sheryl. She thought,

'Charles, in your heart, Sheryl is still quite important after so many years!

Well, now let me see how long you can remain the same lovey-dovey duo. I will make life hell for both

of you. And that's a promise. Let me see how long your love survives under such external pressure.'

"Ms. Bai, don't be angry. We have already achieved a great feat. Now we need to be very cautious at

every step. Never underestimate Sheryl to be soft. Had it been the case, she would not have created

so much trouble for us in the past." Holley marked the malicious look on Rachel's face and remarked in

order to make her feel good.

"I know." Rachel gritted her teeth as she spoke. She pulled her fingers together in a fist. "Anyway, I'll

definitely teach her a befitting lesson this time!" Rachel said with a harsh voice.

"Her doting husband will trust her for once. But when such incidents follow one after another, how long

will he believe and protect her? This is just the beginning. Just wait and watch. After all, the most

unbearable thing for a man is breaking of trust! " A sinister smile spread on Holley's face and her eyes

sparkled. After experiencing so many things, Holley seemed to be smarter than before.

But it was a pity that her cleverness never proved to be useful whenever and wherever it was needed

the most.

"Yes, I won't let Sheryl live in peace," Rachel nodded.

"Ms. Bai, how do we handle the wine party now?" Irene looked at the mess all over the party hall and

quickly ran to ask Rachel for opinion, looking exasperated.

Rachel and Holley were backstage together since Sheryl left. Looking at the flabbergasted look on

Irene's face, Rachel gave her a casual smile.

"Why don't you just put it all back in order? Just follow Sheryl's plan to execute one step after the

other." Then Rachel gritted her teeth once again and admitted, "Even though I hate Sheryl, I can't deny

her excellent planning skills. Plus with her scandal out in the media now, this time, Tarsan Corporation's

first wine party in Y City will definitely grab the attention of the public!"

It just was her conspiracy; she not only wanted to make use of Sheryl, but also destroy Sheryl!

"Okay, Ms. Bai, I know what to do next," Irene nodded and then returned to the hall.

Holley and Rachel smiled at each other. "Holley, should we find a place to celebrate tonight? Although

things are not completely perfect, they are not so bad either."

"Well, Ms. Bai, if you want, I'll definitely come with you!" Holley said with a smile. "But before we

celebrate, I think you should first get out hold stronger on the media in order to make sure that our

plans do not get any obstruction from anywhere."

Holley remembered the look on Charles' face when he took Sheryl out, Holley was skeptical that he

would do everything within his means to make sure that the media completely ignored what happened

at the party. And for their plan to work in the way they wanted it to work, the news must and should hit

the headlines. Otherwise, it was of no use.

"Yes, you are right, you wait for a minute. Although I am not familiar with the business community of Y

City, I am really familiar with the media!" This was indeed a piece of cake for Rachel.

"Okay," Holley nodded.

Rachel made several phone calls; each call took a few minutes of a brief conversation. Holley sat

leisurely at the backstage watching Rachel make the phone calls in an utterly professional manner. A

contented smile appeared on Holley's face.

Holley's heart filled with a mild sense of satisfaction, and it reflected on her face. It was as if her thirst

was quenched, and she felt calm. She had never thought that she could ever defeat Sheryl. Had it not

been for Rachel, she was afraid that she would not even have a place to stay at the moment.

Now everything had changed with Rachel as well. Holley joined hands with Rachel. Even Rachel was

not the slut that she used to be anymore. Rachel was now the CEO of Tarsan Corporation now, and

everyone should respect her!

Just this identity was enough to challenge Charles and keep him under pressure for a long time!

Shining Company was powerful, but it still couldn't win over Tarsan Corporation so easily!

"Okay, all done. Let's go, my dear Miss Ye, let me treat you to a meal. Thank you for being willing to

help me," Rachel smiled. Rachel was in a good mood. It seemed that she handled the things on the

phone very well.

"Let's go and celebrate our first victory. For sure we deserve a good meal." Holley laughed heartily.

"Let's wait for the headlines tomorrow! And then we'll discuss our next plans." Rachel also laughed.

Charles got muffled thinking about the photos shown in the party. He could not even think of going back

home. After all, Melissa was at home and she didn't like Sheryl. Charles shuddered at the thought of Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Melissa coming to know about today's incident.

So he drove directly to Shining Company taking Sheryl along with him.

"Mr. Lu, hello. You still have a meeting in ten minutes. Do you want to attend it or delay it?" David saw

Charles pace steadily inside the office with Sheryl by his side. He wondered why Charles came in

ahead of time, and approached him to ask about the meeting.

"Delay!" Charles' tone was cold and his lips were set in a straight line. He did not even make eye

contact with David as he replied to him.

David had been working with Charles for many years. With just one look at Charles' face, he could

gauge at his state of mind. Moreover, Sheryl walked right behind him with an equally solemn face.

David needed no more hints to understand that something had gone terribly wrong. "Okay, Mr. Lu, I will

reschedule the meeting," said David before he left Charles' room.

He knew that Charles would not want to see anyone right now!

Seeing how David had been snubbed by Charles, no other employee dared to approach him.

After entering his office, Charles closed the door after Sheryl entered. Sheryl pulled a chair and sat

down.

Suddenly, Charles sprang up and remarked with a sparkle in his eyes, "Sher, just wait a minute. Let me

make a call. This is not as serious as we think!" Charles looked at Sheryl and gave a reassuring smile

to comfort her. Sheryl looked into Charles' eyes and her face lit up with a glint of hope.
