The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1860

On the way back to the office, Sheryl was lost in thought. She and Cassie had enjoyed a quiet conversation, which made her think about Charles and their relationship.

Sheryl bit her lower lip and took a deep breath before speaking to herself. "Sheryl, be strong. Charles will be fine."

She was successfully able to calm herself down with these words. Now that she had relaxed, she then made her way to work.

What Sheryl didn't know was that Charles was already back. He had made a grand entrance at the airport to announce that he was back.

"Mr. Lu, where shall we go now?" David asked. He looked even more excited than Charles did.

Charles looked up at the sky and smiled as if lost in thought. "Let's go to Dream Garden first. Who knows how worried my mother must have been?"

David merely nodded in agreement. While he thought it was better to go to the office first, he hadn't expected that Charles would have made plans in advance.

"Okay, Mr. Lu. I'll get the car." Then David left.

When he'd gotten the car, Charles got in, and they headed to Dream Garden.

Charles had been in Malaysia for so long that he couldn't help but feel nostalgic when he finally returned. Everything seemed so familiar. He was finally back home.

"Mr. Lu, are you going to tell Ms. Xia?" David asked cautiously. He could tell that Charles was in a good mood; hence, he was very careful as he spoke.

Charles seemed to hesitate upon hearing Sheryl's name. After a while, he shook his head. "No need."

"But, but..."

"Just focus on the road. I'm tired," Charles interrupted. It was obvious he didn't want to talk about this anymore.

David had no choice but to remain silent.

In Dream Garden

When Leila had left for work, Melissa sat in the living room alone. She decided to watch TV as she was bored. Since Charles had gone missing, she didn't even want to play cards. She didn't want to do anything else but stay home.

"My Lady, if you're tired, you could go upstairs to rest." Nancy figured it would be better for Melissa to sleep on a bed, considering her health.

"Fine. Whatever. Get back to work. I'm just sitting for a while before I head upstairs." Melissa didn't hate Nancy as much as before anymore. She just didn't feel like talking to her.

She frowned. Meanwhile, Nancy was afraid that if she said anything else, Melissa might get mad. So she turned and left to go back to work.

As soon as Nancy turned around, she heard the door opening. She didn't really mind this, but she just wondered why Leila would be back so soon.

She returned to the kitchen while Melissa stayed in the living room. Melissa had also heard the door opening. She called out, "Leila, are you back? Why are you back so early? Did something bad happen at work?"

It was Charles who had entered the house. Upon hearing Melissa's weak voice, he couldn't help but worry about her.
