Chapter 657 Anthony Bluffed Sue


    "What''s going on between them?" Anthony repeated his question, with eyes full of anxiety. When Sue


    still didn''t answer, he clutched her hand even tighter and pleaded,"Please tell me what''s going on


    between Sheryl and Charles."


    "Ouch! Anthony, you''re hurting me," Sue cried in a coquettish manner. Before Sue could say anything


    more, she fell into a deep slumber. She must be really drunk. Anthony felt so helpless. He couldn''t do


    anything but sit on the couch and stare at the sleeping Sue. He didn''t realize he had been sitting there


    the whole night pondering about Charles and Sheryl.


    Fate was deliberately yful. He had been hiding the truth from Sheryl for many years hoping that it


    would help him win her and have her forever but just all of a sudden, she would be back to Charles. All


    his efforts had gone to waste.


    In the mountains


    In the middle of the night, Sheryl fell asleep. Charles just watched over her. At dawn, while Sheryl was


    still fast asleep, Charles secretly left to look for someone who could help him repair the car. Fortunately,


    he was able to find a mechanic who was already awake. When he came back to the car with the


    mechanic, Sheryl was still asleep. She only woke up when the car was almost done.


    Somehow, she slept well despite the not so pleasing environment.


    Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she opened the door and got out. She noticed that Charles was not alone.


    Without any knowledge about car repairs, she innocently asked Charles,"How''s it going?"


    "It''s almost done," Charles answered while looking at her lovingly. It was only 5:30 in the morning and


    the temperature in the mountains was biting. Sheryl''s face turned pinkish with the cold. When Charles


    noticed it, he thoughtfully urged her,"You wait in the car. It''s too cold outside."


    Sheryl nodded and then took off Charles'' coat to give it back to him. "Put your coat on."


    "I''m not cold. You just wear it," Charles refused. He then gently wrapped the coat back on her


    shoulders.


    Sheryl waited for roughly twenty minutes inside the car before the mechanic could finally fix it. Charles


    gave the mechanic a few hundred dors before the man thanked him and left. When Charles entered


    the driver''s seat, he turned to Sheryl and said,"Well, we can go now."


    Sheryl remained silent all throughout their journey. When they passed by a coffee shop, Charles pulled


    off to buy some breakfast for Sheryl. Sheryl didn''t even react when he went out of the car. "Here."


    Charles handed the bag of breakfast to Sheryl when he came back to the car. Then he added,"I know


    you don''t want to have breakfast with me so I decided to buy you some breakfast before I drop you


    home. By the way, I''m sorry about what happenedst night. I was too imprudent."


    "Never mind. It''s all right now," Sheryl replied with a forgiving smile on her face. It was almost eight


    o''clock when they reached Sheryl''s apartment. She bid goodbye to Charles and got out of the car. She


    waited for the car to vanish before she turned to the elevator.


    Meanwhile, Sue also had woken up. She felt a throbbing headache. As soon as she opened her eyes,


    she was startled to see Anthony sitting opposite her. "What are you doing here, Anthony?" she inquired


    nervously.


    Anthony''s bloodshot eyes indicated that he stayed up all night. "Don''t you remember anything about


    Upon hearing it, Sue racked her brain to remember everything she didst night. Suddenly, her face


    turned pale as she remembered a vague memory of her confessing her love to Anthony.


    She gave Anthony a guilty look. "Er... I think I drank too muchst night. I was not in my own mind. So


    whatever I must have said, please don''t take them seriously." She then added with a paleugh,"I


    always talk nonsense when I''m drunk. Please don''t take it to heart."


    She knew how much Anthony loved Sheryl. If she wanted to continue her friendship with him, she


    couldn''t admit what she had said in front of him now that she was already sober.


    However, Anthony just stared at her coldly. "How about those things you said about Sheryl? Were they


    also nonsense?"


    "About Sheryl?" Sue froze for a moment.


    "What was it?" Anthony sneered,"Huh! Your words were pouring out like a rainst night and now


    you''re ying innocent?" Anthony''s voice was full of mockery.


    Anthony was not sure if Sue would remember all that happenedst night so he bluffed her to tell the


    truth. "Should I remind you? Last night you told me something about Sheryl and Charles." His face


    darkened upon mentioning this.


    Sue turned crimson in embarrassment. Yes, she did love Anthony deeply, but she also made a promise


    to Sheryl that she would keep it a secret.


    Sue told Sheryl that she would pursue Anthony, but in a fair way. She didn''t intend to reach to the point


    that she would sell Sheryl out.


    She was too ashamed to look at Anthony''s eyes so she looked away.


    "I have no idea what you''re talking about. I told you, I was drunk. I can''t remember anything I saidst


    night," Sue cried, pretending to be firm. She coughed a little before she continued,"Just consider


    everything I saidst night as a made-up story."


    "Well, that''s just what I actually thought," Anthonymented sarcastically. "Sue, you and Sheryl have


    been friends for quite a long time. Sher has always treated you like a family. She has been so kind to


    you and she always cares about you. I never thought that you''d be so scheming. Just to get what you


    want, you made up some stories to discredit Sheryl. You just made me despise you!" Anthony''s voice


    was full of conviction.


    "No, I didn''t! That''s not true!" Sue hurriedly denied. Anthony was thest man she could stand to


    misunderstand her. So she didn''t have any choice but to admit,"I didn''t make up anything. I would not

    make things up just to discredit Sheryl. What I said was true."


    Sue gave Anthony a miserable look and continued,"I don''t understand why Sheryl is so perfect in your


    eyes. She has done so many things behind your back but you''re just turning a blind eye. You should


    know that better than anyone else."


    "You shut up!" Anthony shouted frigidly. "Sher would never do anything to betray me."


    "Really? In your heart, Sheryl is the goddess of perfection. No matter what she does, you''ll always


    forgive her. You can ept everything about her. But now, why are you so angry when you hear


    something about her and Charles? Admit it, Anthony. You can allow Sheryl to do anything except


    associating with Charles. You feel threatened by Charles, right?" Sue continued with a sneer.


    "I told you to shut up! Didn''t you hear me?" Anthony couldn''t contain his anger anymore. Sue''s words


    definitely irked him.


    However, Sue had been angered as well that she couldn''t stop anymore. "You have always refused to


    acknowledge Sheryl''s inappropriate rtionship with Charles. But you know in your heart that Sheryl


    never really loved you. And since she met Charles, things started to get out of hand. She might not


    admit it, but for her, Charles is clearly more important than you."


    "That''s my own business. What does it have to do with you?" Anthony replied coldly. "Sher is indeed a


    perfect woman for me. I trust her with all my heart and I''m sure, she would never do anything to betray


    me. But you intentionally denigrate Sher in front of me. Don''t you feel sorry for her?"
