Chapter 690 Go On A Tour With Charles
"That is not the case. We are not ming you for anything," said Sam with a sigh. He paused. Then he
continued in a weary voice,"Have you ever considered that even if you set things right for her today,
what about tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow? What do you mean?" Chris was stunned by his words. In fact, Sheryl had been too
dignified to point this out to her. Sam had no such hesitation and chose to be very blunt with her.
Sam smiled bitterly and exined to Chris who was still puzzled,"They will definitely hate Sheryl more
after you created a scene like this. They may make more trouble for Sheryl when they get another
chance to do so. You are not helping her but actually doing a disservice to her."
Chris immediately understood what Sam was trying to say. She nced cautiously at Charles. Then
she lowered her head and dared not talk anymore.
After some time she finally said,"Charles, I..." Chris stuttered and felt awkward. She knew that she had
done a blunder again.
"Well, spilled water cannot be gathered and foolish actions cannot be reversed. I will handle it," said
Charles in a rough voice to his sister. He had not wanted to get involved in this matter so early, but now
he had no other choice. Chris had messed it up and now his interference was necessary or Sheryl
would suffer the consequences.
"Charles, we have to leave now," said Sam. He stood up, patted his brother-inw on the shoulder and
exined,"The baby should be awake by now. It is time for Chris to nurse the little fellow."
"Okay. Go ahead," replied Charles calmly. He did not bother to look at them as he said this. He busied
himself with some papers on his table.
Chris had been nning to talk further about Sheryl. Now she decided to leave with Sam since she felt
too embarrassed to stay in Charles'' presence anymore.

After they left, Charles went downstairs and watched the rehearsal for a while. Gerry came up to
Charles and said with a sigh,"These models are pretty good and highly professional, but..." Gerry
stopped for a while and then went on,"But they are always causing trouble and even quarrel with each
other. This is really annoying."
"Don''t worry Gerry. I will talk to them and handle this. Call them together. I have something to dere,"
said Charles.
"Okay. I will call them right now," Gerry replied and nodded his head. "Everybody, pleasee here.
Mr. Lu has something to announce," said Gerry in a loud voice.
Hearing this, all the models gathered around them. They looked at Charles and waited for his
deration. Sheryl also stood there motionless. She gazed at Charles who was looking very serious.
She suddenly realized that he looked very handsome with a pensive look on his face.
"Okay, everybody, please listen to me," said Charles. Charles quickly nced at Sheryl and then
looked away. "I have just talked to Gerry. I know that you all are very tired these days since you have
been rehearsing hard every day. I have decided to give you all a day off tomorrow. You can rest
tomorrow and do whatever you want," added Charles.
"What? Really?" The models all smiled as they heard this good news.
The intense practice was very exhausting and it was rare to get a day off. "Yes, I am serious," replied
Charles with a smile. He nodded and then added,"I will take you all to the suburban vi for a holiday
tomorrow. You can bring your family members with you and spend some rxed moments with them.
Let us meet at the office gate at eight o''clock tomorrow morning. Are you all clear on this?"
"Thank you, Mr. Lu," Kitty said cheerfully to him. Hesitant, she then went on to ask,"Mr. Lu, will you join
us tomorrow?" She looked keenly at Charles and waited for his reply eagerly.
"Yes, of course. I will go with you," replied Charles in a casual and friendly voice. He paused for a few
seconds and then said again,"We will stay there for a night and you can have a pool party. I hope all of
you have great fun with your family and friends."
Kitty''s eyes shone bright as she heard that they could have a party by the pool. It meant that she had a
chance to get close to Charles tomorrow. She was confident about her own charms as she thought she
was much more beautiful than Sheryl. Charles would surely be drawn to her.
Kitty even began nning her swimsuit and clothes for the next day.
Sheryl knew that Charles had to pick up Charlie from her house. She waited for him at the gate after
she finished the rehearsal. As Kitty walked by, she sneered at her and said,"You really have a thick skin
Sheryl. You are voluntarily waiting for Mr. Lu to give you a lift to your house. What a shameless woman
you are!"
Though Kitty made such harsh remarks, Sheryl just turned a deaf ear to her and acted like she heard
nothing. Sheryl always regarded Charles as her boss and felt no guilt at these sly remarks. She knew
her intentions towards him were not romantic.
"Sheryl, just wait and see. Mr. Lu will be very attracted to me by tomorrow. When I be Mrs. Lu..."
Saying this, sheughed scornfully and then continued,"When that dayes, I am afraid that your
wishful thinking to trap him will remain just a day dream."
Charles happened to hear these words when he walked out. His eyebrows knitted into a frown. At that
moment, he decided to teach Kitty a lesson.
"Sheryl." Charles called out to her in a soft voice and said,"Sheryl, let''s go."
"Mr. Lu," called Kitty. Kitty found that Charles did not even nce at her. She did not like this treatment
and it made her a little ufortable at heart. With this thought, she stared at Charles and said,"Mr.
Lu, I also live close to where Sheryl lives. Could you drop me off at my ce? I am very exhausted
today. I have been rehearsing in high heels for thest two days and it is a very tiring work."
"I am afraid I can''t," responded Charles politely. He shook his head and then added,"It is not
convenient for me to do so. Also, the car is not big enough. But you can call a taxi. I will reimburse the
fare."
"Mr. Lu, you..." Kitty was so indignant that she was speechless. Obviously, Charles'' car was big
enough. It was just an excuse Charles was using.
He was talking nonsense and clearly wished to snub her.
Seeing this, Sheryl giggled. It was the first time she had seen Kitty being snubbed so openly and
politely.
Kitty felt embarrassed as she heard Sherylughing at her. She red at Sheryl and vowed to herself
that she would strike back.
Sheryl couldn''t help giggling when she got into the car with Charles. He nced at her curiously and
asked,"Why are you still giggling? Was it that funny?"
"Yes, of course." Sherylughed for a few seconds more and then said,"It is the first time that I saw
Kitty take a beating. Obviously, your car is big enough and it is easy to amodate her. But you
fobbed her off with such a stupid excuse. Moreover, she couldn''t even challenge your foolish excuse."
"So what?" asked Charles in reply. "It is my car and I am reluctant to drive her home. It is quite alright
for me to decline her request. I don''t care if the excuse is reasonable or not."
On hearing this, Sheryl burst into furtherughter for quite a long time. "Why did you decide to take us
out?" asked Sheryl as she finally sobered down.
"I know you all are tired since you have to rehearse for long hours every day. I decided to give you a
day off. This way, you all would be refreshed and work harder for me," joked Charles. He nced at
Sheryl with a teasing smile.
"Wow, it seems you have your own agenda." Sheryl also grinned cheerfully.
They talked and joked with each other all the way. Soon they arrived at Sheryl''s house. They got out of
the car and walked in. Sheryl didn''t expect to find Anthony waiting there when she opened the door and
was surprised.
