Chapter 1209 I''ve Missed You


    "Mom said that you got Le out of jail." Sheryl went straight to the point. Staring at Charles, she tried


    to see through his true feelings about the matter.


    "Really? I didn''t expect her to be released so early.


    But how did you know?" Surprise and confusion flooded Charles. It was his doing; since Melissa


    repeatedly asked him to get Le out of prison, he had no reason to refuse her requests. Besides, he


    initially put Le in jail because he wanted to teach her a lesson. Since she was in there for so long,


    Charles believed that she should have realized her own mistakes and turned into a better person.


    Otherwise, he couldn''t think of any reason for Le to be so nice to a strange olddy in prison.


    Since Le wasn''tpletely irredeemable and his mother adored her, Charles didn''t think it a bad


    idea to help her get out—he even thought that it would be a good decision if she could keep his mother


    goodpany and make her happy.


    "So your mom wasn''t lying. Exin it to me, Charles!" responded Sheryl, disappointment and


    frustration shing through her eyes. As she recalled Melissa''s and Le''s statements, Sheryl felt


    rattled inside—she was sure to keep her gazepletely focused on Charles. She didn''t dare blink,


    making sure she missed none of his facial expressions as the topic of Le was brought up.


    "Sher, I don''t know what Mom said to you…But I hope you can believe me. Here''s the thing, Mom


    ended up being Le''s cellmate in jail so they became good friends. When Mom left prison, she kept


    telling me that she had a close friend who was still behind bars and she just asked me to help her out,"


    he narrated. After a pause to gage Sheryl''s reaction, he continued, "I guess you can sense that Mom is


    still rather unhappy with you these days. I thought maybe Le would provide for a good distraction. If


    she has a friend to keep herpany, she won''t be so lonely anymore and will probably stop bothering


    you. What do you think?"


    It wasn''t news to Charles how deeply his wife hated Le, so he knew that she was extremely upset


    about him helping the woman get out of jail. To avoid causing any more misunderstanding between


    them, he carefully exined his side.


    "What you said is reasonable. But have you ever thought about this? Once your mom gets on well with


    Le, I''ll have two women working together against me instead of just one," reminded Sheryl. Indeed,


    she wasn''t worrying over nothing. While she was at home, Melissa had already chosen to take Le''s


    side.


    Sheryl could already tell that Melissa and Le were practically like family and she was left as an


    outsider—Charles belonged to Le and Le was the real hostess of Dream Garden.


    "Don''t worry about that. I will not allow that to happen. Le won''t be allowed to stay at our house. If


    necessary, I''ll confront Mom about it as well. So please rest assured. I promise, I won''t let you get hurt


    because of Le," Charles assured his wife, understanding her misgivings. As her husband, he would


    never want to let her concerns be reality.


    "You know what? Mom brought Le home and the woman was still too perky. I don''t think spending


    time behind bars really taught her anything." Sheryl''s tone was t.


    "Mom brought Le home today? Leave it to me. I will take care of this. Perhaps it''s Le''s first day out


    so Mom is still catching up with her. I will do my best to stop Le froming to the house. I''ll do


    anything I can. What do you say?" Charles said with guilt and sincerity evident in his voice. When he


    thought of Le, his expression turned stern. Staring at Sheryl, he said with his eyes sparkling with


    anger, "And tell me, what did Le say to you? You''re my woman. I will not allow her to bully you."


    "What do you think she said? She just made the same old insulting remarks. She still hates me," Sheryl


    casually replied. Still, Charles''mitment to her almost melted her heart. In an earnest tone, she


    added, "I know you care about me and you mean what you said. But things change every day. We can''t


    foresee what will happen in the near or far future. I have faith in you and our love, but something could


    get in our way to happiness."


    What she said summed up her concerns but she was unsure whether or not Charles could truly


    understand how she felt. Regardless of that, he was her husband and the one she trusted most.


    "I know…There is uncertainty in the future, and many people seem to want to get in our way. But I will

    not let anyone ruin our family. You have my word on that," he swore as he leaned forward and held her


    hand tightly.


    The two were so close that they could feel each other''s breathing. Charles watched the endearing


    woman with intent until his eyes fell right on her red, plump lips. Their lusciousness aroused a strong


    desire in his heart.


    Numerous misunderstandings prevented the couple from enjoying their sex life for days. Even though


    they were tougher than most and could pretend it wasn''t a big deal, they couldn''t totally get rid of their


    nature—the desire for sex.


    Regardless of gender or status, people needed to satisfy their urges.


    "Sher…I''ve missed you. I''ve missed you a lot…" he confessed in his sexy, bewitching voice as he


    stared at her obsessively. Gently stretching his arms around her slender waist, he lowered his head


    and sealed their mouths with a kiss.


    Sheryl kissed him back fervently with a simr desire to share in their intimacy once again. It had been


    such a long time since she could be passionate with her beloved man—she didn''t care if they were in


    his office where someone could walk in at any second.


    All she wanted in that moment was him.


    ''We''re married and we''re not doing anything wrong. It''s not a big deal if someone barges in and sees


    us. I don''t even care if they hear us and gossip about us. I want everyone to know that Charles is my


    husband.


    He belongs to me. No one can take him away from me." Such possessive thoughts ran through her


    head.


    The two indulged in a wild kiss as they both felt their bodies burning up as if they both had a fever.


    Their passion filled the entire office.


    Yearning for more, Charles swiftly lifted Sheryl up and strode to the couch before gentlyying her back


    down on it. As if it was their second nature, the two began unbuttoning each other''s clothes. Soon, their


    quick and heavy breaths resounded in the room. Just as Charles was about to make love to her, he


    came back to his senses.


    "Sher…let''s go home or to the hotel nearby. We can''t do this here…" he proposed, almost in defeat.


    It was his priority to find afortable bed so that he could enjoy the night with his wife.
