Chapter 1188 Leave My Son Quickly


    It was bing clear to Sheryl that Gary was very smart. He had experienced so much that nothing


    could be hidden from him. But even if he knew what Melissa had done, what would he do?


    Should he side with Sheryl or Melissa? Would he attempt to guide Charles to make a choice between


    the two women?


    Deciding not to involve himself in this dilemma, Gary felt that it would be better to pretend to know


    nothing.


    After all, everyone had to live his own life, and be responsible for his own decision.


    "Charles is working overtime at thepany and has to attend an unscheduled meeting," Sheryl told


    Gary.


    "Charles is a workaholic. When he is working, he seldom pays attention to other things. Having worked


    so hard for many years, he never has any spare time. Thanks to him, my life is quite rxing now."


    Gary nodded in appreciation. Sheryl could easily sense the love and pride he felt towards his grandson.


    "Okay, that''s all. I just wanted to tell you about my trip. It''ste, so I should head off to bed. Tomorrow


    morning I have to get up early and catch my flight," Gary said as he smiled. Although Charles wasn''t


    here, Gary was sure that Sheryl or Melissa would tell him about his trip.


    Feeling tired and eager to go to bed, he stood up from the sofa and walked upstairs to his room.


    After Gary left, only Melissa and Sheryl remained in the living room. An awkward silence fell over the


    room. Not wanting to be alone with Melissa, Sheryl decided she would follow Gary''s lead and go to bed


    as well. But as she started to walk away, Melissa stopped her.


    "Sheryl!" Melissa said anxiously.


    Sheryl stopped, but didn''t turn around. After pausing she said, "Yes, Mom?"


    "Have you quarreled with Charles again?"


    Hearing Melissa''s words, Sheryl immediately turned round. "What do you mean?" she asked


    suspiciously.


    "I mean nothing. I just want to say, if you''ve realized that you''re not a match for my son, then you


    should leave him! Don''t get in the way of him living a happy life!" Melissa was sure that Sheryl and


    Charles must be in conflict because Sheryl acted slightly embarrassed when Gary had mentioned


    Charles.


    Not wanting to be misunderstood, Sheryl didn''t reply. Instead, she shook her head and walked upstairs.


    A smile crept slowly onto Melissa''s face when she watched Sheryl''s receding figure. ''Everything is


    starting to go ording to my n, '' she thought happily to herself.


    After taking a bath and snuggling up in bed, a sleepless Sheryl tossed and turned.


    At around midnight, Charles finally returned. There was no smell of perfume or alcohol exuding from


    his clothes or body, and Sheryl couldn''t find any ws in his tired look. It seemed that he had truly been


    workingte.


    Moreover, he seemed to have worked very hard.


    Pretending to be asleep, Sheryl was careful to keep her eyes shut.


    Meanwhile, Charles didn''t want to waken her so he tried to stay very quiet. His gentle behavior


    reminded Sheryl of thest time he hadete. Not wanting to wake her up, Charles had been very

    quiet as he tiptoed around the room and took a silent bath before slipping under the covers next to her.


    Sheryl suddenly felt sorry for Charles. However, she mentally scolded herself, not wanting to be moved


    by his actions so easily.


    The next day, Sheryl drove Gary to the airport and then went straight to thepany. As for rk and


    Shirley, Charles drove them to kindergarten.


    It seemed that Charles hadn''t noticed Sheryl''s recent emotional changes. He didn''t know why Sheryl


    was still cold to him.


    So, after driving their children to kindergarten, he also rushed to work. Recently, the Shining Company


    had been facing trouble. Rachel was the mastermind behind it. Although these problems weren''t too


    hard to handle, Charles still needed to spend time on them.


    "Sher,e here and help me, please," I shouted as soon as Sheryl walked into the office.


    "What''s wrong?" Sheryl rarely saw I so anxious unless she was facing a big problem.


    "It''s about Lansh Technology. Look, these people in the news are the founders of the Lansh


    Technology, aren''t they?" I was shocked as if she had just discovered a new continent.


    "What happened to the Lansh Technology?" Hearing this name, Sheryl was a little surprised. If the


    Lansh Technology had started business sessfully, it would certainly attract the public''s attention in


    the Y City.


    After all, the research focus they had chosen was very special. In Y City, there were few such


    sessfully, they would definitely deserve a ce there.


    This was the reason Sheryl was willing to cooperate with them despite their inability to pay high profits.


    So, at the beginning, Sheryl had been optimistic about both the future of thispany and the futures


    of the young people.


    But now, the news of Lansh Technology was being broadcast. The bad news was that the founders of


    thepany were now in conflict with one another. It was bing apparent to Sheryl that Lansh


    Technology might not be able to start their business on time.


    "The founders of thepany had been in conflict before even starting the business. So imagine how


    much worse the conflict could get after starting business!" I signed as she read the news again.


    Sheryl, however, was confused about the authenticity of this news. From her perspective, those young


    people seemed unlikely to fight with each other over something so trivial.


    "Could they have been faced with


    some unexpected problems that they don''t want to reveal?" Sheryl tentatively asked I.


    "I don''t think they''ve been faced with any problem! Otherwise, they would have answered the phone.


    Yesterday, I called them more than ten times but no one answered the phone."


    I''s first impressions of thepany founders were not very good.


    "Is this the only reason you believe they haven''t had any problems? Maybe they didn''t hear the


    telephone ring." Sheryl immediately discovered the reason why I was so angry.


    "I don''t know whether they heard the telephone ring or not, but that''s unimportant now. Since they''ve


    been having difficulties starting their business, we naturally must stop our cooperation with them. I think


    we should directly eliminate thispany from our list."
