Chapter 802 Why Do You Wait Till Now

Name:The Substitute Bride Author:Mi Lu
For the entire morning, Sheryl focused on practicing. The performance was just around the corner, and she had taken a lot of breaks over the past few days. If she allowed herself to slack off for much longer, she would more than likely make a fool of herself during the actual performance.

Charles was made aware the moment that Sheryl returned to work. He had secretly come to watch her practice once, but because she was so focused on what she was doing, she was completely oblivious of his presence.

Everyone went out for lunch around noon. Sue was a little hesitant for a moment, but then she approached Sheryl and said, "Sher, let's go and have lunch together."

Showing very little interest, Sheryl said, "No, thank you." Sheryl shook her head slightly. She grabbed a towel nearby, wiped off her sweat and said to Sue, "I'm already so far behind, I'll just pass on lunch. You should go with everyone else."

Sheryl did not really want to have lunch with Sue. If it were not for the fact that they worked in the same place, she would not even want to have anything to do with her.

It was not because she disliked her, or because of any other negative personal opinions. It was just after all that had happened recently, Sheryl felt that the friendship between the two of them was no longer as it had been, and since they were no longer friends, there was no need to feign the pleasantries.

Not to mention that Sue was now Anthony's girlfriend, and his family's social status was quite a bit higher than her own. Sheryl did not want to get herself into any more trouble.

"Sher..." Sue looked at Sheryl, who was standing in front of her. There was something that she wanted to say, but not knowing exactly what to say made her stop for a moment.

She briefly flashed a regretful smile at her former friend. Finally, she said, "Sheryl, I saw you move out this morning, I'm so sorry Sher. I didn't expect things to turn into such a mess like this. Actually, I..."

Sue hesitated for a while, as she contemplated on if she should continue. "I know what I did was wrong, but I just couldn't help myself. I'm sure you can understand that, right."

"It's okay," Sheryl said with pure disdain. Sheryl looked at Sue with a look that could break the highest fever, and said, "There's nothing right or wrong, as long as you can live with yourself and are happy with your cho

something so important?"

"I'll tell you. But please, just sit down first." Charles' reaction was so excessive, that everyone in the restaurant stopped what they were doing and looked towards the two of them in an instant. Sheryl looked at Charles, a little embarrassed, and said in a slightly hushed voice, "Calm down. I am telling you now, okay?"

Charles sat down, but did not look very pleased. He looked at her and said, "Sheryl, you better explain this to me clearly. I have no objection as far as you moving out from that apartment, but why the Zhao family? Without saying a word to me about it? You..."

Charles was too angry to even speak smoothly.

"Please, don't be mad." Sheryl hastened to add, "I didn't keep it from you on purpose. It's just, things happened too quickly, and it was a last-minute decision."

"What exactly happened?" he asked, still visibly angry. Looking at how Sheryl was behaving now, Charles finally realized that things were not as easy as he had first thought.

Sheryl pondered for a while, but eventually told him everything that had happened the night before. Then she sighed and said," I don't really want much right now. I just wish for me and Shirley to have some peaceful days. I don't want to go on and on with them anymore."

Charles frowned and said, "Even if that's the case, you can still move to the Dream Garden. There's still a room for you there. Why do you need to..."

"Charles, you know me." Sheryl smiled wryly and said to him, "If it didn't happen so last-minute, I wouldn't even have moved to the Zhao family house."
