Chapter 822 Roger's Explanation

Name:The Substitute Bride Author:Mi Lu
"Miss Xia, I am so sorry about what happened today!" Roger had no choice but to apologize in the place of Helin. Sheryl replied with a smile, "It doesn't matter and you don't need to apologize. I've already told you not to worry."

She took a glance at Helin and turned back to roger. "Happy birthday! I'm afraid I'm gonna have to leave your celebration before your party starts. Goodbye!"

"Please, don't!" Roger rushed to stop her and asked her to stay. "The party's just about to start and you haven't had your slice of cake yet."

"I think Miss He would prefer I be out of your sight, yes?" Sheryl smiled. "I'm sorry that I didn't know today is your birthday. I'll bring a gift with me the next time we meet."

Sheryl looked at Roger and said, "You said you wanted a birthday party. I'm sure Miss He can make your dreams come true."

"Miss Xia! Miss Xia!" Roger was unwilling to give up and wanted to be with Sheryl even though he knew that nothing could be done about it.

"Just let her go if she wants to! Why are you so desperate for her to stay?" Helin stopped Roger. "I have good news!" she continued.

"Do you have any idea what you've done?" Roger shouted at Helin in frustration.

"Of course I do!" Helin exclaimed. She confessed, "Roger, I fell in love with you at first sight. I'm always transparent with my affection towards you and I believe you're well aware of that fact, right?"

Roger stared at Helin, not knowing how to react to her feelings. "Why are you saying this?" he asked.

"You know very well in your heart that I have done so much for you all the years we've known each other. Do you really think that I have done all this because my intention is to be your 'little sister'?" She came closer to his face and continued, "I really don't know what you would think, but everything I did today was to tell her that you are mi

possible for me to forget."

Roger continued to explain, "Outsiders only know that Mrs. Lu passed away three years ago, but in fact, she didn't; she just lost her memory. Now she's back."

"What? You mean Sheryl is Mrs. Lu?" Helin was stunned, awing at the information she just found out. "Roger, that's ridiculous! You must be kidding me."

"It is the truth whether or not you believe me; it's the truth," Roger sneered. "Helin, I couldn't explain to you when she was there. I met Mrs. Lu before, so I couldn't be mistaken."

He took Helin's hand in his. "I did that for your own good."

Helin was starting to feel guilty for pinning Roger as the wrong kind of guy. She took a glance at Charles who wasn't too far away and then she returned her attention to Roger. She anxiously asked him, "What should I do? I disrespected Sheryl!"

"Take it easy, now. Don't worry too much about it since what happened has already happened." Roger sighed. "I'll just have to explain to her on your behalf later, but the next time you meet her you must be nice and polite. Don't be wrong to make the same mistake again. I can't always clean up after you!"

"No problem! I promise, I won't do it again." Helin, being gullible, nodded immediately.
