Chapter 1595 Sheryl''s Stains
To prevent Sheryl from leaving, Ferry grabbed her by the arm and pulled her into his chest as if they
were dancing.
Being handled that way made her ufortable, so she tried the best she could to escape Ferry''s
grip. But the harder she struggled, the tighter and closer Ferry held her. Their interactions looked rather
ambiguous in public. People who happened to pass by cast them a strange look and assumed that
they were a couple.
Another surprising urrence Sheryl didn''t expect was for Le to happen to wander in the same
shopping mall that very moment!
The seemingly intimate scene between Sheryl and Ferry unfolded in front of her. Le found it hard to
believe what was right before her eyes. At first, she almost doubted her own eyesight and denied what
she saw.
Because of disbelief, she rubbed her eyes before casting them another nce. She looked closely
because she wanted to make sure that the woman was none other than her enemy, Sheryl. When she
realized that the woman was in fact her rival to Charles'' heart, she sneered and her lips curved into a
''Sheryl? Isn''t that woman Sheryl?''
Le wondered in silence as her brows furrowed in curiosity.
Only she could see was the man''s back, but she was sure he was not Charles. She simply took it to
mean that Sheryl had already found a new lover behind Charles'' back. Always regarding Sheryl as her
rival, Le had never given up on collecting Sheryl''s stains to ruin her reputation. Now, seeing the
couple before her very eyes was a rare opportunity that she couldn''t miss. She watched the two
closely, waiting to see how it would develop and end.
From a distance, Le could see clearly how the moment unfolded, yet she couldn''t hear what the two
were talking about.
She was ready to bring Sheryl down and it didn''t take her too long to craft the best n. She took out
her phone from her pocket and intended to take pictures as evidence to take advantage of one day.
Locked in Ferry''s aggressive grip, Sheryl didn''t surrender. She kept struggling, spending all her energy
just to pull back her hand. But Ferry was as strong as a bull and she was unable to gain control of
herself.
"What the hell do you want? Let me go!" Sheryl roared in frustration as she looked around,
embarrassed. She dreaded that someone familiar would witness the incident and spread rumors about
her. She couldn''t afford any scandal now, as she was already facing too much stress in her pending
divorce.
Luckily, there were only a few people around and they barely stopped by to even bother about what
was happening.
"Take it easy! Don''t be so fazed. About what I want to do to you, don''t you have a clue?" Ferry taunted
as he raised his eyebrows, disying his annoying smirk.
Noticing Ferry''s sudden carelessness, Sheryl quickly slid her hand away to escape. She then snapped
angrily, "You are a person of no credibility! You promised that you would stay away from me!"
Ferry spread out his hands and shrugged, replying angrily, "So are you! You are a woman unworthy of
trust. How can you demand me to be reliable?" Feeling embarrassed in public because of this
unrequited deration of sweetness, Ferry paused and gauged Sheryl''s expression. When he didn''t
get any response from her, he continued, pointing out his main concern, "You promised to divorce
Charles! But you didn''t!"
At that point, Sheryl knew she was at the losing end. The deal was based on her promise. Now that
she didn''t keep her word of divorcing Charles, Ferry had reason to ignore what he had promised in the
deal.
But Sheryl didn''t intend to break the deal. In fact, she had vigorously demanded a divorce from
Charles. But when it came to the custody of the children, the couple failed to reach an agreement.
Sheryl didn''t want to lose custody of the children, and neither did Charles. As a result, the standoff
threw their divorce into a long, slow, and indeed tiresome process.
"Charles didn''t agree to divorce me in the end. What do you expect me to do to change his mind?"
Sheryl''s patience ran out and she lost her temper at Ferry.
Ferry wasn''t affected by Sheryl''s violent reaction at all. He had barged in on her shopping spree just to
annoy her. As calm as possible, Ferry looked at Sheryl silently and observed her demeanor. He circled
around her and suddenly blurted out, "Fine! You can choose not to divorce Charles!"
Upon hearing his words, Sheryl couldn''t hide the hope in her eyes. Clearly, she felt safer that Ferry had
now acknowledged his defeat in not having her divorced. As Sheryl waited for his next words, Ferry let
out a soft smirk, ready to haggle her once more, "But you have to ept my one condition!"
"What is it?" Sheryl couldn''t wait to hear Ferry out, even though she was still worried of what was on his
mind.
Ferry gave her another half-smile and said slowly in an attempt to sound seductive, "Be my lover!
Then you don''t have to divorce Charles!"
"In your dreams!" Sheryl eximed with rage, about to throw a fit. In an instant, she refused Ferry''s
ridiculous request.
When Ferry had stated that he would offer her another option, Sheryl felt hopeful for she thought that
there was no other request that could be more difficult than breaking her marriage with Charles.
However, such entitlement irked Sheryl the most. She didn''t expect Ferry to be so shameless. The
alternative he offered was no better, rather, it was worse than the former one!
Wrath rose from the bottom of her heart. Anger boiled over so quickly that it filled her chest. Looking at
Sheryl''s livid face, Ferry was even more delighted. He said withoutpromise, "I leave you three
days to think it through. Be my lover or divorce Charles immediately! Or else…"
His statement was unfinished, but his intention was already clear to Sheryl. Speechless and restless,
she lowered her head and sank into contemtion.
Seeing how Sheryl struggled to make sense of his offer, Ferry patted her on the shoulder and said
again, "Take into ount what I have told you! In my view, it is not bad at all for you to be my
lover, is it?" While Sheryl was still drowned in confusion, Ferry ran his fingers over Sheryl''s soft jaw and
lifted her face. With a lustful stare, he sized up Sheryl in a rather rude manner. The way he manipted
Sheryl, it seemed like she was a puppet under his spell.
Finally done with his business of trapping Sheryl in the palm of his hand, Ferry decided to step away
and leave her alone.
Hiding in in sight, Le watched Ferry''s back until his figure disappeared into the distance. She then
turned her focus onto Sheryl who was now staring nkly at nothing, probably overwhelmed. Sheryl''s
difort brought an evil feeling of joy in Le. Tucking her phone away, in which she had captured
enough evidence she needed to ruin Sheryl, she decided to leave. It was not necessary for her to stay
here any longer.
Le turned around and left moments after Ferry.
She had taken incriminating photos which she believed would be enough to convince Charles and
discredit Sheryl. She couldn''t wait another second to show the pictures to Charles and let him down
about his ex-wife. Filled with grudge as she was, she muttered silently in her heart, ''Sheryl, you are
doomed this time! With these pictures, Charles will see who you really are! I am wondering how he
would react as soon as heys his eyes on my photo gallery. He would change his mind and feelings
toward you. You are not the woman of perfect stature he thought you to be.
I am looking forward to seeing how this will y out, Sheryl!'' She couldn''t contain her excitement and it
reflected on her face. On her way back to Dream Garden, she constantly chuckled at the thought.
On the other hand, I observed Sheryl window shopping by a children''s clothing store. She walked
close to Sheryl and gave her a gentle nudge when she found her staring nkly at nothing, as if
drowned in total confusion.
"Argh!" Sheryl shouted all of a sudden, her lips trembling and her face twitching. Her atypical reaction
shocked I to the core.
Sheryl''s fazed expression brought much suspicion to I. With a frown rooted in worry, I asked her
friend, "What''s wrong? Did something happen while I wasn''t around?"
I regretted leaving Sheryl alone when she had to take the loo. If she hadn''t gone to the bathroom,
she thought, Sheryl wouldn''t have been in such a state.
Sheryl said nothing for she was rendered speechless. She only nodded her head to express that she
was fine.
Sheryl''s insensibility irritated I. Running out of patience, I burst in wrath as she held her friend''s
shoulders and shook her back and forth to continue interrogating her. "Speak!" Sheryl finally snapped
out of her isted bubble. She trembled in fear as she took a deep breath.
She was finally woken up from her thoughts and trembled as she took a deep breath. With a scared
look, Sheryl said, "Ferry was here just now!"
"Ferry?"
I wondered out loud. Why did that man show up here?
"What did he say?" I asked in a low and calm voice while stealing nces at Sheryl. She realized
she was the one overreacting. Ferry''s unwanted presence exined Sheryl''s shift in mood.
Sheryl managed to take a deep breath and further calmed down but she still didn''t want to answer I.
I understood Sheryl''s weird behavior and attempted to ease her apprehensions. She didn''t push
Sheryl to do what she believed was best. It was clearly not about her this time. I knew that the will to
continue shopping was gone, so she grabbed Sheryl''s arm, intending to take her out of the mall.
As they drove back to Cloud Advertising Company, Sheryl still felt unsettled. Ferry''s words kept
repeating in her head.
I quietly stood by her side. She understood her friend''s anxiety and kept herpany.
After a long pause, Sheryl finally had the courage to say, "Ferry asked me to be his lover in exchange
for not divorcing Charles. He left me three days to think about it. Three days after, if I fail to agree, I
have to divorce Charles."
"What?" I was in total shock. She red at Sheryl with a suspicious look on her face.
Being so self-aware, Sheryl could easily understand what was on I''s mind. She nodded in
agreement.
In fact, Sheryl had been as startled as I the moment Ferry brought up the farfetched deal.
She even believed that Ferry had gone insane.
"Then what are you going to do?" I asked as she took a deep breath to calm her nerves.
Sheryl shook her head, her expression turning helpless. She looked exhausted and felt defeated but
she managed to give I a wry smile and said, "What else can I do? I won''t be Ferry''s lover! That''s
impossible! All I can do now is divorce Charles as soon as possible, or else I am afraid Ferry will lose
his patience and take his revenge!"
Although Sheryl already had too much on her te as she tried to carry out the divorce, she had no
choice but to make it happen.
Divorcing Charles was the brightest and the only solution to her problem right now.
Earlier in Dream Garden, Le had told Melissa that she would go out to get herself some clothes
because she was excited to show off in the office. But now, Le came back empty-handed. Her
unlikely behavior puzzled Melissa.
"Le, didn''t you buy any…"

"Aunt Melissa, take a look at this!" Le interrupted her for a far more important matter. She took out
her phone and anxiously showed her the incriminating pictures.
Reading Le''s face, Melissa stopped speaking. She took the phone Le handed over to her and
closely viewed the photos on disy.
