Chapter 1722 Daddy Wants To Abandon Us


    "Mommy, is Daddy nning to abandon us?" rk asked as he looked at Sheryl with tears brimming


    and overflowing down his cheeks. She could tell his eyes were turning red with sadness.


    Shirley stopped sobbing as soon as she heard rk''s question. Her focus shifted back to Sheryl. This


    question was on her mind too. "Yes, Mommy. Is it true? Does Daddy want to abandon me and rk?"


    Both the kids were in a miserable state. The mere sight of them made Sheryl sad. She walked up to


    them and hugged them tightly. For a while, the trio cried, holding onto each other.


    Alex stood aside and felt sad while witnessing this.


    In fact, Alex had heard from Nancy about what had more or less happened between Sheryl and


    Charles. She knew that Sheryl was going through a tough time, and she couldn''t help but shed tears


    when she saw this.


    "Ms. Xia, don''t sit on the floor. It''s cold." Alex hurriedly walked over and helped Sheryl and the kids up.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Sheryl stopped crying and told the kids with tears in her eyes, "Mommy knows your intentions were


    good, but it was still a bad thing to do. Do you understand?"


    Sheryl endured the pain and forced a smile. She didn''t want the kids to see how weak she was feeling.


    After all, her tears wouldn''t save the situation. No matter what, she and Charles couldn''t go back to


    being a couple. The only thing left for her was to make her kids happy.


    "Mommy, I am sorry. It''s all my fault! I just wanted Mommy and Daddy to patch things up. I didn''t mean


    to make you sad."


    Earlier, rk had told himself that he should be strong. But at the end of the day, he was only a child.


    Facing this situation, he couldn''t control his feelings any longer.


    Seeing how sad rk was, Shirley looked at him and shook her head. "No, Mommy! It was my fault,


    not his," she said, trying to take the me for her brother.


    Sheryl looked at the two kids, and her heart ached painfully. Seeing them sad was the one thing she


    couldn''t tolerate. She wiped the tears on her face away and took a deep breath, trying her best to


    smile. "Mommy is fine. As long as you are okay, I will be fine."


    "Really?" Shirley asked Sheryl, disbelief evident in her eyes.


    "Hmm. Mommy won''t lie to you."


    Looking at Shirley''s cute face, Sheryl felt sad again and almost cried out.


    "Tap-tap..." There was a knock on the door.


    Both Sheryl and Alex instinctively turned their eyes toward the door. After a moment, Alex turned to


    Sheryl and said, "I am going to open the door and see who that is."


    Since Alex was walking to the door, Sheryl didn''t bother to go. Instead, she looked at her kids and


    asked them to move to the couch. Lovingly, she started tofort them.


    "Does it still hurt?" Sheryl asked softly. She knew that she had gone crazy out of anger. Hence she had


    hit them really hard. Consumed by rage, she didn''t think of the consequences. But now she felt


    heartbroken as if she had pped herself.


    "Ms. Zhao?" Alex opened the door and was surprised to see I.


    "Has Shere back?"


    I rushed into the house anxiously and looked around, searching for Sheryl and the kids.


    Feeling anxious, I didn''t give Alex time to answer.


    Finally, when she saw the three sitting on the couch, she sighed with relief. She rushed to Sheryl, and


    her eyes instantly fell on Shirley. "Shirley, you truly scared me! Where did you go?"


    "Auntie I, I am sorry. I lied to you." Shirley was relieved since Sheryl hadforted her. But after


    hearing I''s words, her face once again became red.


    I detected that something was amiss, so she turned to Sheryl in confusion.


    Sheryl could do nothing but sigh helplessly. She didn''t know what to say.


    "Auntie I, Shirley, and I lied to Mommy. We thought Daddy woulde with Mommy." rk said to


    I first.


    With that said, he looked as sad as Shirley.


    I reacted instantly. She looked at them and noticed they were all in tears. She could only imagine


    what they had gone through.


    Everything rted to Charles would bring Sheryl only pain. And anybody who mentioned his name in


    front of her would be her enemy. The two kids pretended to be lost, hoping it would revive Sheryl''s


    rtionship with Charles. This felt like an insult to her injury.


    I didn''t know how Sheryl had survived thest few hours. But now it was evident that the two kids


    were as sorrowful as Sheryl.


    "Fine, it''s okay. I believe that your mommy is not angry anymore. But you have to remember that you


    can''t ever do this again. Do you understand?" I was calm and spoke to the kids softly.


    She was good atforting others. The two kids stopped feeling sad because of her words. Now their


    faces were smiling. They chatted with I for a while and then went to get cleaned up with Alex.


    After the kids had left, Sheryl sighed with relief andy back on the couch, closing her eyes to have a


    rest.


    I felt sad for Sheryl as she saw how tired she was. Gently, she patted Sheryl''s shoulder tofort


    her. "There is nothing wrong with the kids, so rx. Don''t think too much!"


    "I am fine." Sheryl opened her eyes and smiled at I as if nothing had happened.


    "Stop pretending in front of me. I know you better than you know yourself. I have seen how gentle you


    usually are with your kids. If you weren''t so angry, you would have never beaten them!" I said and


    sighed.


    At the moment, I could see through Sheryl, but thetter wouldn''t admit it. Of course, it was not that


    she didn''t want I to know. It was just that she didn''t want I to be worried about her.


    "Fine. Since you and the kids are okay, I am relieved. If there is nothing, I will go now."


    I knew that Sheryl was tired, so she offered to leave so that Sheryl could get some rest.


    "Hmm, be careful on the way," Sheryl warned as I got up and prepared to leave.


    Unexpectedly, as I walked to the door, she suddenly thought of something and turned to Sheryl. She


    hesitated for a while and then said to Sheryl, "Eh, Charles came to thepany to see you."


    "Can you not mention his name in front of me?" Just the mention of his name brought fury to Sheryl''s


    face.


    "Okay. Don''t react so strongly. I am sorry. I won''t mention it again," I said apologetically. I didn''t


    want to offend Sheryl, so she put up her hands to surrender.


    After that, I quickly went downstairs.
