Chapter 1046 I Don''t Understand Her


    Sheryl frowned and looked at Holley wordlessly. Her gaze was cool and unbothered.


    She wished that she could somehow control Holley''s actions, or at least be able to read her mind. She


    was willing to do anything so that they wouldn''t have to be in such a messy situation. After all, Holley


    was her biological sister.


    "Sheryl, when you lost your memory, did you lose your mind as well?" Holley mocked, with a cold smile


    that made her seem like a psycho. She looked at Sheryl with equally cold eyes. "So, what makes you


    think you have the right to interfere in my affairs?"


    "I know you think low of me," Sheryl answered in a low voice. She felt a weirdbination of anger,


    pity and disgust. "To be frank, I don''t want anything to do with you either. But nothing can change the


    rtionship between us. We share the same DNA. No matter how we try to deny it, the same blood


    flows in our veins."


    Sheryl paused for a while and gave Holley a puzzled look. Then she added, "When I heard that you


    had managed to escape from prison, I was actually quite happy for you. But there''s just one thing I


    can''t figure out. You could have spent your days happily with George, enjoying a good life. Why did you


    insist oning back here?"


    "I''m d you asked. I came back because I can''t stand the thought of you and Charles living happily


    together!" Holley spat, with pure contempt in her eyes. She gave a wild cackle and told Sheryl, "When


    mom died, I made a vow. As long as I still breathe, I will never let you lead an easy life."


    Holley smiled bitterly and continued, "Do you want to know what mom told me before she died? She


    told me to never let you get away. And so here I am, back to make your life miserable, dear sister."


    "Is that so?" Sheryl couldn''t hold back a dryugh when she heard Holley''s words.


    To think that her own biological mother would say such things on her deathbed. Even though she had


    not had a good rtionship with her mother, it still came as a shock to her.


    Holley looked back at Sheryl with a curious look. She asked inquisitively, "It''s been so many years.


    Don''t you ever feel guilty at nights before you go to sleep? No matter what, she was still your mother.


    She carried you in her tummy for 9 months and suffered throughbor to give birth to you. She loved


    you and cared for you. Aren''t you afraid karma wille for you because of the way you treated her?"


    Sheryl gazed into Holley''s eyes confidently. She didn''t feel threatened by her at all. "I did feel sad at


    first. But I kept reminding myself that she reaped what she sowed. She was asking for trouble in the


    first ce. It may be toote for her, but it''s still not toote for you. You still have the opportunity to


    turn your life around. Don''t make the same mistakes as mom or you''ll end up exactly like her."


    "Shut up! How could you say such things?!" Holley raised her voice, her face flushed with anger. "Don''t


    you even think you can manipte me with your words. I will never give up this vengeance. I''m going


    to make you pay if it''s thest thing I do. It''s the only thing that keeps me going, the only life goal I


    have. Only when I have avenged our mother, then I will be happy."


    Sheryl sighed tiredly and said, "Whatever makes you happy. I have better things to do than worry about


    you."


    She knew that no matter what she said, it was impossible to change Holley''s mind. It was better to just


    give up now than waste her own time and energy.


    She was just about to turn and leave when Holley suddenly grabbed her arm. "Where do you think


    you''re going? We''re not done here yet. I still have a lot of things to say to you! Why the big rush? Is the


    guilt catching up to you?"


    "Let go of me!" Sheryl shook off Holley''s hand. She was starting to feel annoyed by Holley''s


    stubbornness. She was just about to scold Holley when they heard a male voice say, "Holley, what do


    you think you''re doing?"


    "Mr. Shen..." Holley''s demeanor changed instantly as the man appeared. She went over to him and


    wrapped herself around his arm intimately. "What took you so long? I''ve been waiting here for ages. I


    was starting to get worried," she gushed.


    Mr. Shen shook her off, with a hint of disdain on his face. He looked at Sheryl and his expression grew


    excited. He asked nervously, "Are you Mrs. Lu?"


    "Yes, that''s me. And you are?" Sheryl looked at the man curiously. He seemed to be in his forties or


    fifties, but his huge size made it hard for her to be really sure. She thought that he looked vaguely


    familiar yet just couldn''t figure out where she knew him from. "I''m sorry, I don''t think we''ve met before."


    "Oh it''s alright. I don''t expect you to know me," Mr. Shen replied with a small smile on his face. "I''ve


    been a huge fan of Mr. Lu for a very long time now. I''ve always heard that his wife was pretty and


    personally think you look great even from a distance. I never imagined that I would ever get the


    opportunity to meet you face to face, or that you would look so much prettier in real life."


    "Really?" A long time ago, Sheryl might have been ttered by his remark, but at that moment, she


    merely looked at him mildly and said, "I see. Well, nice to meet you. I''m sorry but I have some urgent


    matters to attend to. If there is nothing else, I shall take my leave now."


    "Wait!" Mr. Shen called. "Mrs. Lu, since we''ve met today, I do have a request. I don''t know if this is


    appropriate but I actually have a favor to ask, if it''s not too much trouble. I''ve been going to Mr. Lu''s


    office for the past few days but he''s always unavable. Could you please inform him that I have a very


    important matter to discuss with him?"


    Sheryl looked at Mr. Shen, noting how serious he looked and knew that it was indeed something


    urgent. She hesitated before telling him, "I''m sorry, Mr. Shen. I really wish I could help you, but I''m not


    in the position to help you on this. I never get myself involved with Charles'' work. If it is really urgent,


    then you can make an appointment through Charles''pany. I''m sure Charles will take the time to


    see you if he''s not too busy."


    "I understand. I was just hoping that..." But Sheryl did not want to hear anything further. She quickly


    interrupted, saying "I''m sorry, Mr. Shen but I''m really in a rush. Please excuse me, I need to get


    moving."


    Sheryl was just about to leave when Holley called out, "Stop right there! We haven''t settled things


    between us yet. Why are you in such a hurry to leave? You''re not scared, are you?"


    Sheryl sighed and turned to look at Holley. "Holley, there''s nothing to discuss. There''s nothing else we


    can do right now. Haven''t you insisted that you''ll get back at me for what I''ve done? There''s nothing I


    can do but to wait for you to make your move."


    She took another look at Mr. Shen, who was standing behind Holley. ''How in the world can she tolerate


    the sight of him?'' she thought to herself, shuddering internally.


    She smirked and asked casually, "So, is this you new sugar daddy?"


    "What''s it to you? Didn''t you say you didn''t want to interfere in my affairs?" Holley shot back quickly.


    Her face turned slightly pink as the embarrassment shot up and down her body. Of course she had to


    find someone to support her now that she had left George. That was why she went for Mr. Shen, one of


    the most influential people in Y City. How ironic that of all the people she could have chosen, she chose


    a man who practically worshipped Charles, one of her most hated people.


    Judging from Holley''s expression and her reaction, Sheryl knew that not only was she right, she could


    also guess exactly what was going through Holley''s mind. Although Holley was still furious with her,


    Sheryl still felt likeughing at how ridiculous the situation was.


    But instead ofughing, she looked right into Holley''s eyes and said, "I really don''t understand what''s


    going through that thick brain of yours. You practically had it all when you were with George. He''s


    young, good-looking and rich. Most importantly, he adores you and would do anything for you. You


    could have such a good life with him. Take a good look at the man you''ve chosen to rece him. A fat,

    sulky man like a huge overgrown baby. Let me give you some sisterly advice. Don''t wait till George has


    found someone else. Because if he has, it''ll be toote to cry for what you''ve lost."


    Sheryl''s words were crystal clear and Holley found herself getting slightly ufortable. But somehow,


    she managed to summon a huge amount of self-confidence and she replied cooly, "Mind your own


    business. There''s absolutely no way in hell that George would leave me."


    "Are you sure?" Sheryl mocked in a singsong tone like they always used to when they were kids. "Look


    Holley, I really do have better things to do. I''m not going to waste my time here arguing with you. Take


    your time nning your revenge and when you''re ready, you know where to find me. Right now though,


    I really need to get to work and you need to apany your Mr. Shen, right?"
