Chapter 923 Where Is She
"Mr. Su, you are not kidding, are you?" Chuck couldn''t believe what he just heard. He was still upset
that Charles canceled the investment he tried so hard to get. However, having someone offered him
another investment was way beyond a good deal. How could he say no?
"Do I look like I am kidding?" Cary questioned back. "Or are you trying to say that you have found
another investor already?"
"No, no. I actually feel very much honored to have you as our partner," Chuck replied excitedly.
However, he was still skeptical, thus, he asked, "Mr. Su, have you really decided to partner with us?"
After all, the business opportunity that he was longing for was too good to be true.
"Sure," said Cary. "I have been noticing the development of the Eternity Company for the past couple of
years. I''m seeing great potential. You know, as a modest businessman, I won''t let this precious
opportunity to slip by. I''m not sure if you are avable for small chats right now. I''d like us to have a
small business chat if possible. I have a lot of things to clear out before making my final decision. I
sincerely hope that you can take some time to address my queries."
"Hmm…" Chuck took a look at Sheryl and then Cary hesitantly.
Nevertheless, Cary sensed the man''s doubt. He wouldn''t mind pressuring Chuck to do as he wanted.
"Well, if you are really busy with something else, then I guess I should leave now."
"No, no, no. I have time," Chuck hurried to agree. He was actually dying to find another investor after
Shiny Company quit. There was no way that he would let go of an eager investor now, right?
He seriously wanted to enjoy the girl in his arms but he was smart enough to gauge that it wasn''t worth
to waste such a huge investment just for her.
"Help… Help me." Sheryl seemed to have recognized Cary in her subconscious state. Her hand weakly
reached out to him in an attempt to seek help. Hugging her and pulling her hand back, Chuck
embarrassedly exined, "I''m so sorry, Mr. Su. Hmm… My partner has drunk too much alcohol. I''m so
sorry."
Chuck nned to deal with Sheryl after his business discussion with Cary. Thus, he called his people
to take her back to his room first. However, Cary had something to say about this.
"Mr. Zhang, did you just say that she is your partner?" asked Cary in his emotionless tone.
"Yes," Chuck affirmed as he looked at Cary cautiously. Doubt suddenly got into him as he wondered
why Cary asked such a question. "Is there any problem?"
"Nothing." With a meaningful smile, Cary turned to Sheryl andmented, "Looks pretty."
As a man who knew the business like the back of his hand, Chuck could read the situation from all the
table''s sides, under the table even. He soon realized what Cary meant with his flirtatious words and
frivolous expression.
Everybody knew that Cary liked pretty girls. Thus, it was so easy to see that Cary wanted Sheryl too.
Instead of being pissed off by Cary''s desire for the woman in his arms, Chuck felt excited. He knew that
the investment would follow as soon as he gave Cary the beauty.
"Mr. Su, if you like her, I''ll ask my people to send her to your room instead," Chuck offered in a ttering
tone.
"Well… Then thank you. Thank you so much," Cary epted with a contented smile.
That was thest sentence that Sheryl heard before she totally cked out. She was relieved as she
knew that she would be safe now.
Chuck started discussing the business intently as soon as Sheryl was brought to Cary''s room. He
talked about his project with his ''new business partner'' untilte at night. After they finally reached a
preliminary agreement, Chuck happily excused himself, "Then, we''ll go with what we just discussed. I
hope you enjoy your night. A girl like her is rare to find these days after all."
Chuck couldn''t hold his joy for the deal he just made with Cary. He wasughing out since he didn''t
have a clue of what was waiting for him.
On the other hand, Cary was far from being happy after knowing what happened to Sheryl.
''What''s wrong with Charles?'' he thought. ''How can he allow his wife to be in the hands of this dirty old
man?''
The moment Charles'' name appeared in his head, Charles appeared in person. Infuriated, he rushed
into the room with huge strides.
It was then that Cary realized that he didn''t need to worry anymore.
Putting on a grin, he said to Chuck, "I am afraid that you won''t be able to see the future of Eternity
Company."
"What do you mean?" Chuck was startled upon hearing this and instantly suspected that Cary would
cancel the deal that they had just agreed to. Thus, he hurriedly said in an anxious tone, "Are you
kidding me?"
"I am not kidding you," replied Cary in a cold voice. "It''s not about me, okay? You have bigger trouble to
deal with right now. You have done something irrevocable. Just wait and see."
The trouble he was referring to was apparently none other than Charles. The man literally spared no
effort to get to the ce where Sheryl was. What would normally take one-hour drive only took him less
than half an hour. He had driven over-speed and ignored multiple red lights just to get here before it
was toote. He didn''t even waste any second and began searching for Sheryl as soon as he stepped
in. However, Sheryl was nowhere to be found.
Holley was about to run away when she saw the man breaking through the door. She knew that her
n had failed. There would be no way for Chuck to continue his evil move ording to her original
n with Charles here. She quickly turned to the other direction in an attempt to escape. However,
Susan suddenly appeared on her way and blocked her.
"Move away!" Holley instructed the fearless girl in a low but dangerous tone. She couldn''t even talk in
her normal voice since she didn''t want to get the furious man''s attention.
Susan, however, read Holley''s mind and wouldn''t let her go easily. With a loud voice, she screamed,
"Miss Ye, where are you going now? The party has not yet ended. Why are you in a hurry?"
Her voice seeded to attract the attention of all the people in the ce, including Charles.
His eyes were aze with wrath. He immediately marched towards the woman who had taken his
beloved wife. He was roaring inside and God knew how hard he was trying to control his monsters right
now. He questioned, "Miss Ye, where is Sheryl?"
Knowing that there was no way for her to escape anymore, Holley gave up the idea of running away
and stood firmly instead. A fake smile cracked her lips while she was looking at the angry man. She
answered, "Mr. Lu, why are you asking such a funny question? Sheryl is your girlfriend. How would I
know where she is?"
She then gazed to his eyes and confronted him, "Mr. Lu, you didn''t pay me to keep an eye on her, did
you?"
"Shut up!" Charles was on the brink of madness. Sheryl had fallen into so many dangerous situations
just under his nose! How could he even stand the idea that his beloved wife was taken away again?
With a scornful look, he walked up and gripped Holley''s slender neck with his hand. The bulging veins
on his arms revealed how intense his inner feelings were. His grip on the vicious woman''s neck
tightened as he looked closely at her.
Death had always been a distant word for Holley. It had never crossed her mind even during her most
painful miseries. However, she truly felt how close she was with death the moment Charles'' strong
fingers gripped her neck.
"Give Sheryl to me, or else, I''ll kill you right here, right now!" shouted Charles. He could barely control
his temper. In fact, his feelings had already been hard to suppress since the moment he found out that
Sheryl was in danger. Having the person who had caused all the trouble for Sheryl was making his
blood boil inside his veins. He wouldn''t even mind snapping thisdy''s neck at any moment. However,
the idea that he still needed her to tell him Sheryl''s whereabouts kept him from doing so.
Holley coughed. She coughed weakly, like a dying patient. His fingers were too tight and she was
suffocating! She couldn''t breathe! She couldn''t draw in any air that could keep her alive. Her hands
moved involuntarily and started patting on Charles'' strong arms in a futile attempt to let her go. It was
useless, though, as he didn''t even budge an inch. She was doomed.
"Let… Let me go…" Gathering herst bit of strength, she squeezed the fragmented words out of her
clenching teeth. Then her breathing stopped.
"Mr... Mr. Lu." Although Susan was scared to talk to the man who had lost his mind, she raised her

head and courageously said, "It would do nothing good even if you kill her. The important thing right
now is to save Sheryl." This timid girl, who had been hiding behind Sheryl all this while, had never been
so brave in her life. She was the one who had stopped Holley from leaving just now. And this moment,
she had stepped before this man who would not hesitate killing anyone.
"You know where she is?" Charles calmed a little bit after hearing Sheryl''s name. He was automatically
diverted back to his intention of saving Sheryl. He felt a certain familiarity with the girl before him as if
they had met before. However, he couldn''t be sure.
"I don''t know, but I know who knows," Susan answered in her firm voice.
"Take me to that person," Charles ordered. It was only then that he released his grip on Holley''s neck.
The vicious woman fell to the ground, gasping hard for air. The shadow of death finally diminished. She
was back to life!
"David, keep an eye on her. Make sure that she stays here. If anything ever happens to Sher, I will
make her pay with her life for it!" Charles instructed dangerously.
"Yes, Mr. Lu," responded David with a quick nod. He shot a pitiful nce at the woman on the floor and
let out a deep sigh.
He thought, ''She is so stupid toy her hands on Charles'' love. It took Charles years to find his wife
and it''s only nowadays that he finally has her back with him. He will definitely show no mercy to anyone
who tries to take her away again. I have never seen him being so angry. This daring woman is about to
learn her lesson. All she can do right now is to pray that Sheryl is safe.''
