Chapter 805 Are You Reluctant To See Me
"I''m fine," Sheryl said in a low voice. She shook her head slightly. She and Charles looked into each
other''s eyes. Although they didn''t exhibit any intimate gestures, their affinity for each other was very
apparent by the look in their eyes.
Upon seeing this, Anthony felt very jealous.
He interrupted the peaceful mood and said to Charles, "You have no rights to decide when I should
leave. Who do you think you are?"
"Anthony, Sher is my woman. Maybe she doesn''t know much about business but I do." Charles
smirked coldly and continued, "Anthony, your business must not have beenpletely settled in Y City
even though you have transferred your main business here. So three months is more than enough time

for you to deal with all the matters in yourpany, and your own rtionship before you leave. You
should be grateful for my merciful decision rather than stare at me with angry eyes. It only proves you
are an ungrateful man."
Charles looked towards the gate as he said this. Sheryl and Anthony followed his gaze and saw Sue
standing at the gate, dumbfounded.
Anthony''s face went pale at the shock of seeing Sue. He turned to Charles and said, "It''s my own
business. You don''t have to mind it."
"Sure, I guess I don''t." Charles said with a smile, "I wouldn''t mind your business even if you asked me
to do so. I just want to protect Sher from being harassed by you any longer. You have caused so much
trouble in her life already and I will not be in a very forgiving mood if you continue to try to meet her
again. I don''t know what terrible things I will do if I feel like you didn''t heed my warning.
Maybe I will release all the anger and rage I feel about you all at one time. I don''t think you can handle
it." His voice was cold. Anthony could feel the seriousness of Charles'' threat from the tone in his voice.
Anthony had started his businesster than Charles, so he knew that if it had toe down to a
"What? Do you have any problem with that?" Charles asked with a victorious tone.
"Fine, if that is what you require, I guess I must be inclined to agree." Anthony sneered and turned to
Sheryl. "Don''t forget what you promised me," he said.
"Don''t worry. I always keep my word, unlike you," Sheryl said in a cold voice.
"Okay, let''s consider it a deal." Anthony smiled coldly and was about to leave. "Hold on! One more
thing before you go," Charles called out to him abruptly.
"What else do you want to say?" Anthony asked impatiently, turning his head back to face Charles.
Charles glimpsed at Anthony and said, "You also cannot make any attempt to be in Sheryl''s presence
in those three months, otherwise..."
"Charles Lu, now you''re going too far!" Anthony was annoyed as he heard Charles'' new requirement.
"Who do you think you are? You have no rights to get involved in the matters between Sheryl and me,"
he screamed at Charles.
"Charles is right." Sheryl said in a cold tone, "I also feel the same way. I know you need some time
before leaving this city, but I don''t want to see you or... anyone of your family members. Otherwise, I
will break my promise without hesitation."
She looked at Anthony and continued, "The day you leave will be the time your father can get his job
back. I promise."
"Sher, are you insane?" Anthony looked at Sheryl with pain and heartbreak in his eyes. "Why can''t you
see how devious the man beside you is? How can you really be on his side? No good cane to you
as long as you stand by him. He will be your undoing."
Sheryl felt discontented with Anthony''s words so she argued, "I know him better than you. But I feel so
unfortunate to have seen your true colors sote. You don''t have to worry about me because I''m not
stupid. Charles is my children''s father and I believe he will never hurt me."
She nced at Anthony and said impatiently, "Just leave. If there is nothing more to be done here, I
should go now."
"I''ll take you home." Charles gripped Sheryl''s hand and left with her immediately. Seeing them walk
away together, Anthony felt even more enraged.
Sue wore a distressed smile as she stood momentarily. She thought Anthony hade for her as she
saw him at the gate. But she was finally forced to ept the fact that the only woman in his heart was
Sheryl, even though she detested him now. He had never truly cared about her.
She shook her head, trying to drive all these thoughts from her mind. She was strongly considering just
turning around and going in the opposite direction.
She didn''t know how to face him so she decided to simply pretend that he was just someone that she
didn''t know and walk by him without even acknowledging that she saw him.
But Anthony called out to her. "Sue, are you free tonight? I want to have dinner with you," he said
hesitantly.
Somehow, she felt anxious and answered, "I''m sorry. I am busy tonight."
She worried that Anthony would say something she didn''t want to hear so she hesitantly refused his
invitation.
She instinctively knew that it wouldn''t be a happy dinner. So she thought it was better for her to reject it.
"What are you going to do tonight?" Anthony further inquired.
Sue couldn''t quicklye up with a feasible excuse so she stammered.
Anthony smiled bitterly and said to Sue, "You are free tonight, aren''t you? You just don''t want to have
dinner with me"
"No! I do want to have dinner with you." Of course she wanted to have dinner with him but she didn''t
know what Anthony would say to her. She just didn''t know if she was ready to deal with whatever it
might be.
She smiled bitterly and added, "How can it even be possible that I don''t want to have dinner with you?"
Anthony smirked and asked, "So why did you refuse? If you don''t tell me the real reason, I won''t let you
go!"
Sue gave a reluctant smile and said, "I feel a little ufortable and want to rest."
"Don''t lie to me!" Anthony sneered and added, "You are just trying to avoid me, aren''t you?"
"No, I''m not..." Anthony wouldn''t listen to Sue''s exnation because of the anger he felt. She smiled
bitterly and said, "Fine, it doesn''t matter what you think of me anyway. Just go home, otherwise your
mom will be worried about you."
However, Anthony began speaking to her as she was walking away.
From his voice, she could tell he was feeling a number of feelings including sorrow, anxiety and
reluctance. She couldn''t help but stop in her tracks when she heard his voice.
From behind her, Anthony murmured, "Sue, I''m just in so much pain right now. I just... I just want to be
in yourpany. I don''t want to be alone right now. Why can''t you see that?
Are you dead set against wanting to see me too? Just like Sheryl?"
