Chapter 692 Come To Blows


    Anthony was at first stunned to be questioned by Charles. But then he recovered quickly.


    Anthony turned to Charles and said,"Mr. Lu, are you kidding me when you ask me about the baby''s


    whereabouts!"


    "Spare me all this pretence and nonsense!" Charles flew into rage at Anthony''s refusal to tell him the


    truth. He jabbed a finger towards him and bellowed,"It was you who spirited Sheryl away to America. It


    is you who should be responsible for her amnesia. It is only you who know where the baby is." Charles


    then grabbed Anthony by the cor and threatened him with undesirable consequences if he did not


    relent and tell Charles everything.


    "Let go of me!" Anthony gave a cold smile and challenged Charles,"Yes, I have knowledge of the little


    one''s hiding ce. I choose to keep it away from you. There is nothing you can do about it!"


    Anthony cast a contemptuous nce at Charles and said,"You did note to Sheryl''s rescue when


    she was in deep misfortune. Now youe to pester her and put an end to herfortable and


    secure life."


    Anthony sneered,"Charles, it would be better for you to walk out of Sheryl''s life."


    It was Sheryl who had been determined to take the pill in order to forget her past. However, Anthony


    was facing the music for that after thepse of three years.


    "I am supposed to walk out of Sheryl''s life? Me?" Charles echoed Anthony''s words in a sarcastic


    voice,"It was you who induced Autumn to drug herself when she was at her weakest. Anthony, you


    have craftily hidden your improper thoughts and lust for her. Do not dare to interfere in our conjugal


    affair. Last but not the least, the baby is innocent. I will not see him harmed in any way. Now please tell


    me where the baby is."


    At the beginning, Anthony had felt somewhat guilty to wrest Sheryl from Charles. After all, Sheryl had


    been drugged by Nancy at that time and had lost her cool.


    Subsequently, she had forgot her past including her marriage with Charles.


    At the beginning, Anthony had instituted many careful searches to find Le and Charlie. He


    discontinued his efforts after having learning that Le would take good care of the little baby.


    As his affinity and intimacy with Sheryl grew, Anthony stopped thinking about the matter and focused


    only on Sheryl and Shirley.


    When he returned to Y City with Sheryl, he met Charlie again. He was happy to find the little boy well


    cared for by Charles. Thus, his guilt was somewhat quelled.


    "You can rest assured. The baby is safe and sound." Anthony broke free Charles''s fist and


    said,"Charles, I can tell you where the little boy is being concealed on the condition that we negotiate a


    deal."


    "A deal?" Charles became suspicious and questioned Anthony,"What kind of deal?"


    "Since you are dying to know your little baby''s hiding ce," Anthony grinned and continued,"I will give


    you the information provided you promise to stay away from Sheryl."


    Anthony mercilessly wanted Charles out of the way so that he could monopolize Sheryl.


    Anthony risked saying these words even at the expense of arousing further hostility between him and


    Charles.


    But he didn''t care. He could do anything as long as he could be with Sheryl.


    Charles flew into rage at Anthony''s deal and then punched Anthony on the face to quench his anger.


    "Anthony, how dare you!"


    Anthony was expecting this blow, though the pain it caused almost distorted his face.


    He ignored the pain, gave a cold smile and said,"It seems you value Sheryl more than the baby, so


    spare all this hypocrisy of loving your child!"


    "Shut up! Don''t utter nonsense!" Charles was angered and sneered,"I havee to realize that you


    are a man of duplicity. You pretend to be decent on the surface but have a ck heart."


    Charles gripped Anthony''s cor tighter with one hand, and pointed at Anthony menacingly with the


    other. "I will abandon neither Sheryl nor the baby, so stop all your scheming ways!"


    "Why are you so angry? I do not see any harm with my deal. It will be mutually beneficial to both of us,"


    Anthony incited Charles who was about to conclude their conversation and leave the scene.


    Anthony''s aggressive remarks triggered Charles tond another heavy blow on his face. This punch


    made Anthony''s nose bleed profusely.


    Charles found that this was a good time to beat Anthony up and release all his frustrations. He wanted


    his vengeance and the satisfaction of hurting Anthony as he had been hurt by him.


    Charles'' impulse to beat Anthony up was at its peak.


    A woman''s shout momentarily distracted him.


    Anthony took immediate advantage of Charles'' distraction to gain the upper hand. "Come on. Fight me,


    you bastard. Let us see who wins."


    Anthony sneered and spoke aggressively to Charles,"I was on the point of being engaged to Sheryl.


    You came back into her life and spoilt it all. Now you deserve my whipping and thrashing."


    Sue decided not to go the pub. She wanted to have an early night after finishing dinner with some


    friends. She came back home early, only to see the fight going on between Anthony and Charles.


    Sue had no doubt that Anthony hade to blows with Charles because of Sheryl. She just could not


    figure out Sheryl''s appeal to men. What was it about her that led gentlemen to behave like beasts and


    fight over her?Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
