Chapter 656 In Wine Lies The Truth


    Sue, in a drunken stupor, belched while she spoke to Anthony,"How could Sheryl reject you just like


    this?"


    "Sue, you better go back and sleep. Stop being a roaring drunk!" Anthony was already upset and he


    was about to pull Sue back.


    However, Sue pushed him away with all her might and main.


    "Anthony, you stay put!" Sue demanded. She then banged Sheryl''s door again while shouting,"Sheryl,


    you better quickly open your door! Anthony deserves a proper exnation. Why are you mistreating


    him?"


    Anthony feared that Sue''s fury would disturb Shirley in the dead of night so he immediately pulled Sue


    away from the door.


    Anthony found it difficult to drag Sue back to her room but fortunately, he made it. When they entered


    Sue''s room, Anthony urged her to take a rest so she could recover from intoxication.


    But to Anthony''s surprise, Sue suddenly threw herself to his arms and spoke in a very womanish


    manner,"Why do you seem to worship Sheryl so much? What''s in her?"


    Anthony reflected Sue''s question for a moment but ended up with no answer.


    Actually, Anthony''s love for Sheryl was driven by sensibility.


    Sue continued to press Anthony for an answer,"Since Sheryl has already rejected you, why don''t you


    just forget her and try to forge a new rtionship? Find someone suitable for you.

    Someone who loves you."


    After she spoke, Sue vomited a lot.


    Seeing Sue''s miserable looks while vomiting, Anthony had no recourse but to prepare a cup of honey


    water tofort her.


    Anthony''s gesture made Sueugh foolishly. ''How could my beloved man take good care of me right


    now? Am I dreaming?'' Sue pondered to herself.


    Anthony helped Sue lean on the couch so she could drink the honey water. Anthony urged her to drink


    it all to help ease her difort.


    After drinking the honey water, Anthony helped her lie downfortably on the couch. Then he


    removed her shoes. Anthony couldn''t help butin,"Sue, you should behave what befits a decent


    girl. You shouldn''t give your parents a reason to worry about you."


    "My parents would be thest people to worry about me," Sue replied with a hint of sarcasm in her


    voice. "They value my younger brother more than me."


    Anthony was sympathetic toward Sue. He didn''t know she held some grudges over her parents, but her


    parents must be really hard on her.


    "Well, take a good rest, Sue." Anthony covered her with a quilt. "A woman like you should not drink too


    much. You have to be more careful..."


    Before Anthony could finish his words, he felt a sudden pain on his arm. He realized that Sue pinched


    him. Because of the sudden pain, Anthony got annoyed. "Sue are you crazy?"


    Sue immediately exined why she did such thing. She did on purpose to prove that she wasn''t only


    dreaming.


    "No, you are not dreaming. But you are roaring drunk!" Anthony replied with a hint of displeasure.


    Sue shook her head and said,"No, I''m not drunk. I can assure you that I am sober."


    Sue talked to Anthony coquettishly,"Anthony, you are still as tender as ever."


    Actually, Sue considered it a blessing that Sheryl rejected Anthony. Because now, she was the one


    receiving the favors that Anthony should have given to Sheryl.


    "Stop talking nonsense!" Anthony roughly dismissed Sue. He was about to take his leave when Sue


    spoke again,"Anthony, please stay a little longer." Sue tried her best to detain Anthony by unbosoming


    her feelings for him,"Anthony, I love you more than anyone else in this world. Despite the fact that you


    only bestow all your love and care on Sheryl, I still can''t stop loving you."


    Sue forced a smile and continued,"So, because of my love for you, I undertook caring Sheryl and


    treated her as a friend."


    Because of the wine''s effect on her, Sue became more outspoken. On the other hand, Anthony started


    to feel embarrassed.


    Anthony thought that he should have kept distance from Sue since the beginning.


    "Sue, I think you are too drunk to speak wisely. You better take a rest first," Anthony advised.


    But Sue kept on insisting that she was sober.


    Before Anthony could say more, Sue continued,"When you and Sheryl were still together and we


    became bosom friends, I did everything to hide my feelings for you. I was pining with unrequited love."


    Sue''s voice was full of pain.


    Sue paused for a moment and then continued,"Now the situation has changed. Sheryl was proven to


    be an obscene woman undeserving of your love and I have already cut ties with her. Therefore, I think I


    now have every reason to start a romantic rtionship with you. Besides, Sheryl has already kept a


    constantmunication with Charles."


    "What do you mean by that?" Anthony''s brows furrowed upon Sue mentioning Charles'' name. Anthony


    naturally suspected Charles of flirting with Sheryl during his absence. Now that Sue was hinting about


    it, his suspicion grew stronger.


    Anthony bent to question Sue,"Is there something between Sheryl and Charles?"


    "Please do not expect for the truth toe from me." Sue refused to confirm his question. "I promised


    Sheryl to keep it a secret," Sue added fuel to the fire.
