His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1120 The Outcome

Considering Sheryl's attitude, Isla didn't think it necessary to console her any further. But she still chose

to tell her about all the issues that were going on so that she could make a calculated decision.

"I know. Just do as I've advised. I want to see their true faces too and this is a good chance to find out,"

Sheryl said with a withdrawn scoff.

"All right. I will go ahead with it first thing in the morning," Isla confirmed.

After their talks about business were done, Isla shifted to the next big problem. "Sher, what about the

scandal? Those pictures have spread all over the city. It's the only thing everybody is talking about."

"Charles is dealing with it for me." Sheryl considered for a while and asked, "Did someone from Tarsan

Corporation come to our company again?"

"Of course not. Since you are facing such a scandal, they must be laughing at us secretly. How could

they possibly have the guts to show their faces to us now after what they had done?" Isla said,

discontent evident on her face.

"We can't accept that. We have finished their planning according to their requirements, but they haven't

paid us the remaining fee. They can't break their deal."

Isla didn't think that Sheryl would be concerned about the money which was due when she was in all

this trouble.

"Sher, you shouldn't be worried about the remaining fee in such a crucial moment. The only thing you

should care about right now is your personal matter." Isla looked confused with Sheryl's style of

thinking.

"No Isla, business comes first. After that, I will deal with my personal enmity with Tarsan Corporation," NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Sheryl ordered in a stern tone.

Isla was impressed by Sheryl's will. "You're right. But Sher, you shoudn't go out for a while. The

reporters and the crazy online users won't let you unscathed if they get a hold of you," Isla reminded

her. Although she knew that Sheryl was brave, Isla was still concerned for her safety.

"I won't come out until I am proved innocent."

"Good. It's getting late, I better leave now. I'll deal with all the business stuff in the company so that you

don't have to worry about it. Stay here and spend some quality time with Clark and Shirley," Isla said

with a smile.

"Thank you, Isla." She felt warm after hearing Isla's caring words.

It was past one o'clock at night when Isla finally left Dream Garden. Most people in Y City had fallen

asleep. Lying in bed, Sheryl tried to force herself to sleep.

Meanwhile Rachel had become more anxious since the rapture in the beginning. She couldn't sleep, so

she got up and dialed Holley's phone number.

Holley was fast asleep when she was violently shaken awake by her loud ringtone.

She got up in a hurry and checked the name on the screen. She was irritated and wanted to disconnect

the call immediately.

'Damn it! Does she have no sense of time?' she gritted her teeth in frustration. Considering that Rachel

was still useful to her in many ways, Holley refrained her anger and took a deep breath.

"Hello, Ms. Bai." Holley picked up the phone just when Rachel thought that it wouldn't go through.

"Sorry to bother you, Holley. I called you because I was feeling restless," Rachel said in a rushed tone.

Holley was very disappointed with Rachel. She was too quick to get anxious without considering

whether the matter was worth worrying about or not. Moreover, it was really late. It was nothing that

they couldn't discuss in the morning.

But Holley didn't show any of her discontent to Rachel. She modulated her voice to a friendly tone and

said, "Oh, Ms. Bai. Never mind that.

We are friends and you can call me any time. What is troubling you?"

Her soft voice was a sharp contrast to her exasperated mood on the inside.

"Oh, it's about Sheryl. She still hasn't explained to the public about the scandal. People will lose their

interest for it as time goes on." Rachel was concerned that the scandal wouldn't cause any adverse

effect on Sheryl.

"And what's more, this issue seems to have done no harm to her relationship with Charles. It's like he

doesn't care about the scandal!" More than the general public's reaction, she was more concerned

about Charles' reaction towards Sheryl's cheating ways.

"Ms. Bai, this is all just your imagination. You don't need to worry about Sheryl. Even though Sheryl

gets through all the accusations without giving an explanation, she will still be affected by it. And even if

this news about her gets cold as time goes by, people will still talk about it as long as she shows up

once again in public, and it will become her sign of shame forever.

And how do you know that Mr. Lu's attitude towards Sheryl hasn't changed? Did you see him stay close

to her after the scandal came out?" Holley paused for a moment and continued, "You know that Mr. Lu

is a prestigious man.

For a man like him, saving face is most important at a time like this. His reaction, or lack thereof, is just

his trying to preserve face to avoid being embarrassed.

Maybe his attitude towards her at home is totally different from what he has shown in public. Maybe he

hates her with all his heart now."

Holley tried her best to console Rachel. Honestly, she didn't give a damn about Charles' feelings. She

only wanted to get back to sleep soon.

Holley didn't want to burn her calories worrying about Charles and Sheryl's relationship. It was a bit

early to see the final result.

At least, Holley was confident that Sheryl had received a devastating blow through this event.

"You are right. I shouldn't be deceived by the calm in the surface. A man like Charles could never stand

being cheated on!" Rachel felt reassured after hearing Holley's determined words.

"This scandal has planted a seed in Charles' heart, and it will grow until it creates huge trouble in his

relationship with Sheryl."

"That's right, Ms. Bai," said Holley. She was tired and wanted to get back to sleep.

"I feel reassured now. I am sorry for having bothered you, Holley. You can go back to sleep," Rachel

apologized, feeling guilty now.

"You don't have to apologize for this trivial matter. We are good friends, and it's my pleasure to be the

shoulder for you to lean on during troubled times. I'm willing to talk to you for the whole night if that's

what you need to relax," Holley said with a fake smile.

Rachel was delighted to hear that and hung up after saying goodbye to her.
