Chapter 1349 Le''s Instigation


    Sheryl was skeptical of Melissa''s motivation. She never really adored rk and Shirley, and never


    once offered to take care of them. She wondered why Melissa was so warm-hearted all of a sudden.


    No matter what, Sheryl decided that she would never take her eyes off her kids. Even if she allowed


    them to y with Le, she would watch over them, ready to jump in if the situation called for her


    protection. With that in mind, she gave Le a slight nod as consent.


    Le squatted down and smiled at the kids, trying to rx them.


    "rk, Shirley, let''s ride the merry-go-round now. Shall we?" Le''s voice was soft enough, almost like


    a whisper. She offered her hands to the kids.


    rk and Shirley turned to their mother, as if asking if that would be okay. Their twinkling eyes begged


    her to say yes. They made her heart soft.


    "Go ahead, I''ll be here in case you need me," Sheryl smiled. She reached out to touch their heads and


    encourage them.


    rk and Shirley took Le''s hands joyfully and went towards the merry-go-round. Melissa and Sheryl


    followed a few steps behind and took a seat on a bench nearby.


    Le was very careful when she was with the kids. She lifted them astride the carousel and then sat


    with them. Soon enough, the instation started, the song "It''s a Small World" yed. They enjoyed the


    ride very much, giving loud cackles as the horses floated up and down.


    Sheryl took out her phone and recorded the joyful moments of the kids. The footprint of their growth


    was so precious to her, and she wanted to document as much as possible. She couldn''t help smiling


    while she looked at them from afar.


    "Mom! Look at me!" Every time the carousel passed by Sheryl''s seat, Shirley would wave to her and


    scream out cheerfully, full of excitement. rk, on the other hand, was busy managing his rein,


    pretending he was on a real horse.


    Sheryl also waved back at rk and Shirley. The lovely interaction was so sweet that she couldn''t turn


    her eyes away from them.


    "Le is so nice to rk and Shirley. She loves them like they are her own. I''m so happy to see them


    get along with each other. Don''t you think so, Sheryl?" Melissa asked abruptly, giving Sheryl a


    meaningful look.


    She wanted Sheryl to know that she was receable, and that Le was as qualified to be a mother to


    the kids as she was. Other women could also apany the kids to grow up.


    She couldn''t wait to see Sheryl''s jealous reaction when she realized that her kids could also y


    happily with another woman and live without her. Melissa would becent whenever Sheryl felt


    hurt.


    Somehow, Melissa''s words did hurt Sheryl. She even had an illusion that Le wanted to take her kids


    away from her again.


    Despite the feeling, Sheryl tried to constrain her frustration and pretended that it didn''t bother her. She


    didn''t want Melissa to know about her weakness.


    Feeling quite disappointed, Melissa was supposed toment again, when Sheryl suddenly remarked,


    "Since Le loves kids so much, why don''t you find her a boyfriend, Mom? Once she has a boyfriend,


    she can get married and have her own kids. In that case, she doesn''t need to covet other people''s


    husband and children, which is a win-win situation to both of us. Everybody can live a peaceful life."


    Sheryl''s voice sounded cold. She stared at rk and Shirley the entire time, and never bothered


    ncing at Melissa.


    Ignited by Sheryl''s statement about Le, Melissa red up, and her face turned red with anger.


    "Sheryl, what did you just say? How can you say that Le covets your husband and children? Don''t


    ever measure the stature of great men by the yardstick of small men! You are so mean to think of Le


    that way. She is a noble girl. What''s more, she has so many excellent pursuers to choose from. Each of


    them are rich and handsome. You don''t need to care about that!"


    Melissa was angry that things didn''t go ording to her liking. It annoyed her more when Sheryl dared


    to speak with her like that. She felt that Sheryl was not paying attention to her. On top of that, she


    wouldn''t allow Sheryl to speak ill of Le. She was her choice after all.


    Sheryl gave Melissa a contemptuous look as she answered impatiently, "You know clearly that what I


    said is true, so don''t mistake that for being mean. If Le really has so many suitors, can you please


    help her choose one from them, Mom? Let her marry someone and stop lodging at other people''s


    home."


    "Mind your words, Sheryl! She isn''t lodging at our home! I invited her to apany me, so she is my


    guest," Melissa reproached angrily.


    Sheryl just curled her lips and decided to ignore her. She could never reason with Melissa, since she


    was so stubborn and arrogant. She didn''t think that an argument with her would make sense. As long


    as Melissa would leave her alone, she wouldn''t mind letting her win in this debate.


    Melissa was rendered speechless when Sheryl totally ignored her. She was ready to bombard her with


    thousands of arguments, but Sheryl turned a blind eye at her. Melissa stared at her angrily, provoking


    her. But Sheryl didn''t give a shit.


    When the kids had fully enjoyed their ride, they dismounted and rushed to meet their mom. Sheryl


    hugged them and helped them wipe their sweat. Then she led them to the basin to wash their hands.


    Le came to Melissa and handed her a mini electric fan to cool her down.


    Melissa raised her hand to decline. "It''s better to use it yourself. See, you are sweating all over! It will


    make you feel better," Melissa said. Melissa turned the breeze towards Le. However, she insisted on

    Melissa using it instead. Finally, Melissa epted her goodwill. This act further impressed her, and


    made her believe that Le was indeed good for Charles.


    Since Sheryl had gone with the kids, Melissa took the chance toin to Le about Sheryl''s earlier


    impoliteness and viciousness.


    "Sheryl is bing nastier every minute. Now she utterly looks down upon me! I''m so mad that I don''t


    even want to look at her hateful face!"


    "Aunt Melissa, rx. Such a woman is not worth your attention. We both know that she is vicious. But


    we have to let it go. Otherwise, she would make mischief between you and Charles again," Le softly


    said. She pretended to beforting Melissa, but a hint of coldness shed across her eyes. Melissa


    was too busy to even notice.


    When Melissa heard Le''s words, she recalled how Charles had treated hertely. It turned out that


    Sheryl was behind all of it. She was creating a gap between her and Charles. There was no son in this


    world who would have humiliated his own mother like that, if he had not been incited by a vicious bitch.


    "I promise to expose her hypocrisy one day, and let Charles see her true colors. I will finally drive her


    away from Dream Garden. She will never get away with it!"


    Angrily, Melissa continued voicing out herints. Noticing that Sheryl and the kids were now


    approaching them, Le lowered her voice and whispered, "Aunt Melissa, I have a perfect idea to drive


    her away from your home."


    Le''s mysterious words made Melissa dramatically excited. "Really? Tell me about it now, Le!"
