Chapter 1183 Intimate Addressing
"I wasn't talking to you, Holley. So, shut up. Don't you think you are being ridiculous?" Sheryl said,
turning to look at Holley with an icy glare. She resisted the strong impulse to expose Holley's true
colors in front of Rachel.
"You are being impossible. You are in no position to accuse me, Sheryl," Holley hissed. When Sheryl
wasn't around, Holley thought of herself as eloquent. But every time she faced Sheryl, she was always
rendered speechless.
She hated being trapped in such a helpless situation. 'Since we are in Tarsan Corporation, I can't let
her be so perky towards me, ' Holley thought.
"Oh, really? How about I share your miserable past with Rachel? That way, you two can assess who is Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
more shameless!" Sheryl threatened as she stood up from her seat and made her way towards Holley.
"Don't you dare think you can do whatever you want just because you have Tarsan Corporation
backing you. If you have learned nothing from your previous experiences, then you can forget all about
my warning," she continued, staring deep into Holley's eyes.
"Come on, Sheryl. What's the point of speaking of her past now? You agreed to come here because
you want to figure out what is going on between Charles and me. If you are curious about that, you
should come here and ask me. Don't bully Holley," Rachel cut in, coming to Holley's rescue.
"Oh yeah, that reminds me. Ms. Bai, you do owe me an explanation," Sheryl replied, as she came back
to her seat. When she heard Rachel mention her husband's name, her heart skipped a beat.
'She said "Charles and me,"
not "Charles Lu and me"
or "Mr. Lu and me."
Are they close enough to call each other by their first names?
I thought only I could call him Charles, ' she thought with a sting in her heart.
But she kept a blank face as she pulled herself together. She watched Rachel intently to scrutinize
some information from her facial expression.
However, Sheryl failed to capture any emotions on her face.
Rachel's voice reverberated in the spacious room as she asked, "What did Charles say about our
meeting at Lavender Bar the other night?" 'During our previous meeting, Charles didn't throw a
tantrum. Perhaps Sheryl didn't fight with him blindly. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let me go so easily, '
she ruminated.
She was curious to know what Sheryl's reaction had been that day. 'What did she say to Charles that
night after she saw us meeting in private at the bar? She must have said something. Otherwise he
wouldn't have acted in a calm way like that when we last met, ' she wondered.
"Does that have anything to do with you? If you don't know what he said, then does that mean that you
did all of this behind his back? If there's something going on between you, why hasn't he never
mentioned you to me?" Sheryl grilled her.
The thought hadn't occurred to her until Rachel raised the question. When Rachel spoke, she sensed
the curiosity and confusion in her eyes.
'If she was really dating Charles, she wouldn't have asked me that question.
Charles would have told her everything if they were really in a relationship.
But she has no idea about what Charles might have said. Thinking back, I only saw Charles' back
when I caught them at Lavender Bar. And his face wasn't shown in any of those pictures. Does this
mean that Rachel organized all of this?' she analyzed carefully.
She threw several questions at Rachel in a confident tone.
It didn't mean that she was certain of her speculations. She wanted to see Rachel's first response when
she heard those questions.
Rachel hadn't expected Sheryl to pose those questions. She was stunned, but regained her poise
quickly. With a casual look, she replied, "Obviously, Charles doesn't want you to know about us. I
showed you those pictures because I wanted to prove to you whom he really loves."
Rachel responded promptly so that Sheryl couldn't debunk her lie. Even though Sheryl started to
suspect that this might be Rachel's trick, she didn't have any evidence to support her assumption.
"Ha! Do you think I will buy your story just like that? If Charles has really fallen for you, I'd like to hear
that from him personally. I will never believe it until then. Besides, I have his children. What do you
have to keep him with you?" Sheryl snapped back, looking at Rachel scornfully. Sheryl was deliberately
provoking Rachel to see her response.
"Sheryl, I know what is on your mind now. You must have been living with so much fear lately. After all,
your life will be a mess once you lose such an excellent husband like Charles. He is you husband
today, but I am telling you, you can't have him by your side forever. You have kept him away from me
for a long time. It's time for you to give him back to me," Rachel announced in a resolute tone.
"What are you talking about? Do you think he is some sort of item you can take as you like and throw
away when you get sick of him? Don't forget that you married his uncle. Do you think he would be
interested in his uncle's ex-wife?" Sheryl said in contempt.
Rachel was furious. Sheryl's defiant look infuriated her. She raised her hand to slap her, but the
moment her hand was about to touch her face, Sheryl grasped her hand tightly.
"Do you think I am just gonna sit here and take your beating?" Sheryl asked, her eyes berserk with fury.
She was annoyed and her grip on Rachel's wrist became tighter. Rachel grimaced in pain. She tried to
break free from the angry woman's grasp, but to no avail. Glowering at Rachel, Sheryl said
threateningly, "You should give up on your stupid dreams right now. If you were going to seduce a
married man, you should have done some investigation on his wife first. You messed with the wrong
person."
She released Rachel from her grip and scoffed at her pain-stricken face. She turned around and
advanced towards the door. When she caught sight of Holley, she paused and turned to meet Rachel's
gaze.
"Ms. Bai, now that you and I are in love with the same man...I mean, now that you are interested in my
man, I will give you a piece of advice. Holley is a greedy and untrustworthy person. You'd better think
twice before deciding to continue on working with her. If you keep her by your side any longer, you'll not
only lose Tarsan Corporation, but also the man you love," Sheryl warned.
Exuding a powerful aura, she walked out of Rachel's office in her four-inch high heels.
Rachel and Holley were left behind to glance at each other in utter defeat.
