Chapter 1636 We Can''t Even Be Friends Anymore


    Caught off guard, Sheryl found herself locked inside Lewis'' arms.


    "Mr. Xu, let go of me!" after struggling several times to free herself from his vice grip arms, Sheryl


    screamed. She couldn''t help getting angry at him.


    "I won''t let you go until you agree with me!" Lewis insisted.


    His words took Sheryl aback. She couldn''t believe that Lewis would act so shamelessly!


    All her attempts of getting rid of Lewis failed. Biting her lip atst, Sheryl finally gave up and stopped


    struggling.


    After noticing Sheryl''s silence, Lewis continued, "Sheryl, you know that I did all of this for you. You''re

    the only one that I want!"


    "You should already know that you can''t force anyone to love you. For thest time, I''m warning you. If


    you don''t let me go, we can''t even be friends anymore," Sheryl stated coldly.


    Hearing her words, Lewis suddenly came to his sense. ''Why am I being so irrational just now? What


    have I done to Sheryl?'' Lewis thought in disbelief.


    He released his grip and stood aghast, staring at his hands. He couldn''t believe what he had just done.


    But he also realized that his feelings for Sheryl were so strong and uncontroble that he had lost his


    head at that moment.


    As soon as Lewis let go of her, Sheryl quickly rushed away and out of his reach. She was afraid that he


    would do something to her again.


    Soon enough, she found herself a few meters away from Lewis.


    By the time Lewis had realized what happened, Sheryl had already reached her car and was ready to


    get in.


    "Sheryl!" running towards her, Lewis called out.


    Looking at Lewis from a distance, Sheryl hastened her action, trying to escape his pursuit.


    However, Lewis ran faster. Before she could get in her car, Lewis was already standing in front of her.


    "Sheryl, I''m so sorry! I was being too rude just now. I didn''t mean to..." Lewis exined quickly.


    "Lewis, I don''t need your exnation. I see you as a friend only, nothing more. I hope you can


    understand that we can''t be together. Please, stay away from me from now on," Sheryl snapped coldly


    with an impatient expression. She didn''t want to listen to any of his excuses anymore.


    Sheryl knew that she must put him off as soon as possible. Therefore, she decided to tell him the truth,


    though it might hurt Lewis to hear. It was better than letting him continue living in a fantasy world.


    Looking at Sheryl with a pained expression, Lewis wondered what she was thinking about.


    Assuming that she had sessfully convinced Lewis to give up, Sheryl felt relieved. However, just as


    she was ready to get into her car, Lewis grabbed her arm again.


    "Sheryl, is Charles really so much better than me?" Lewis asked angrily. He could no longer contain his


    feelings. He didn''t understand why Sheryl would choose Charles over him. He always thought that he


    was superior in all aspects. Why would Sheryl ignore him all the time?


    "Lewis, love is not something that you can measure ording to certain criteria. You can''t force it on


    people. I don''t love you, which I have told you quite clearly. How many times do you want me to repeat


    it?" Sheryl spat. Sheryl didn''t know what else she could say or do to make Lewis give up the notion.


    She was confident that she could deal with a regr suitor. But she didn''t think that a man as stubborn


    as Lewis could be sent away so easily. He refused to listen to her, anyway.


    "Love can be cultivated, right? You know what, everybody talks about your family''s business now.


    Nobody believes that your rtionship with Charles willst." Seeing that Sheryl wanted to break free,


    Lewis tightened his grip.


    Feeling the pain in her arm, Sheryl couldn''t help groaning aloud.


    "Did I hurt you?" Lewis asked anxiously, realizing that he was hurting her. He was concerned about her,


    so he loosened his grip, but made sure that he still held her.


    "Lewis, what do you want?" Sheryl finally asked, feeling helpless.


    She didn''t want to continue this anymore. The only thing that she wanted was to leave, and she was


    pretty sure her expression echoed this.


    "Why do you want to leave me so desperately?" Lewis asked in a low voice, showing how hurt he felt.


    Sheryl didn''t answer him. She just stared at him like he was a stranger.


    Feeling ufortable under Sheryl''s cold gaze, Lewis queried, "Why are you staring at me?"


    "Lewis, what have I done or said that made you think that I might love you?" As far as she could


    remember, they weren''t even close friends before. So why would Lewis take a fancy to her?


    "No, you haven''t done anything to mislead me. But I love you, and that is the truth! I believe that I can


    give you a happy life!" Lewis continued, still holding her arm even though he knew that she disliked it.


    "What are you doing there?" Melissa''s sharp voice reached both their ears.


    Hearing her shrill question, Sheryl struggled to shake off Lewis'' hands again but failed.


    With her eyebrows tightly knitted, Sheryl nced at Lewis and said in a ming voice, "Lewis, let go of


    me if you don''t want to get me in trouble!"


    Hearing Sheryl''s words, Lewis had no choice but to release her.


    As soon as she was free, Sheryl strode towards Melissa, hoping to exin to her.


    But before she could say anything, Melissa blurted out, "Le told me that you and Lewis were flirting


    with each other by the entrance, but I didn''t believe her. Sheryl, you''re such a bitch! I already caught


    you once, but I didn''t expect that you would do it again!" Melissa was so angry that her body was


    trembling in rage.


    A few minutes ago, while she was sitting with Charles in his room, she got the call from Le.


    "Aunt Melissa, hurry to the entrance of the hospital. I saw Sheryl with Lewis right now. I''d like to see


    how she can deny it this time!" Le had panted on the other end of the line as soon as Melissa


    answered the call.


    After hearing Le out, Melissa had rushed to the entrance. To her surprise, she saw Lewis hug Sheryl


    tightly in his arms.


    "Mom, I don''t want to fight with you out here. It''s not like what you think. Anyway, it''s unnecessary to


    exin to you. I have to go now," Sheryl said coldly to Melissa, ready to turn around and leave.


    She acted so quickly that Melissa didn''t have time to react. When Melissa realized what hit her, Sheryl


    had already driven away.


    "You''d better think it over before you decide to be with that bitch! She''s a slut, you know?" venting her


    anger on Lewis instead, Melissa warned him sharply.


    After Sheryl had rejected him, Lewis was both angry and sad. Since Melissa now dared to provoke him,


    he couldn''t help but shout at her, "Shut up! I''m not Sheryl. So don''t think that I will tolerate you like she


    does. Leave me alone!"


    Pointing his forefinger at Melissa, Lewis stared angrily at her. His bloodthirsty eyes were like that of a


    ferocious wolf.


    Melissa''s mouth shut immediately, and she didn''t dare say anything more.


    Since Melissa kept quiet and behaved herself, Lewis took his leave and never looked back.


    Melissa was so furious and frustrated. She still believed that these two people were cheating on


    Charles, but she had failed to punish them today.


    "Aunt Melissa, are you all right? Where is Sheryl?" Le asked as soon as she arrived outside. The


    truth was, she had been hiding nearby all this time. She wouldn''t miss such an exciting disy. With


    that being said, she didn''t only witness everything, but she also recorded them. All of this could


    be the strongest and most credible evidence of Sheryl''s love affair with another man. After


    Charles woke up, these evidences would surely be enough to convince him to divorce Sheryl?
