Chapter 1745 All The Old And Recent Grudges


    "Sheryl, I can forgive you for lying to me. Won''t you reciprocate by forgiving me?" Charles asked


    Sheryl, looking hopeful.


    "Forgive me? For what? What have I done for you to forgive me?" Sheryl stormed at Charles. She was


    furious and immediately moved away from him.

    At that moment, Sheryl was both desperate and speechless. She didn''t need Charles'' forgiveness


    because she had never done anything wrong.


    ''His audacity!'' she thought angrily. He had made a grave mistake, but now he was impudent enough to


    me her as well.


    Shamelessly, he had had sex with Le, which he had admitted himself once.


    Apart from his confession, she had caught them twice. ''So they probably did it a lot!'' Sheryl thought in a


    rage. Moreover, her mind affirmed that they must have had sex during the period when she was away


    from the Dream Garden. A disgusted expression was now stered on her face.


    Just the mere thought of them together made Sheryl want to break down.


    "Charles, I hate you!"


    Sheryl said between clenched teeth before she ran away.


    She didn''t want to spare one more look at him because every time she did, it would remind her of Le.


    And once again revulsion would overtake her.


    As always, Charles was going to chase her. But he stopped dead in his tracks when he heard what


    Sheryl had said.


    "Get out..." Sheryl suddenly yelled out when she saw Charles wasing towards her. Her pale face


    was full of tears, which made her look like a corpse climbing from a tomb.


    Her reaction left him stunned. Charles noticed her expression was mingled with disgust and sorrow.


    One nce made him realize how she felt about him.


    Now all he could do was watch Sheryl as she disappeared from his sight. He had been through so


    many difficulties in life, but he always handled them skillfully. Yet, when it came to Sheryl, he could do


    nothing.


    "Charles, are you okay?" Le asked tenderly as she walked up to Charles, reaching out for his hand.


    Seeing the look on his face, Le sensed something was amiss. She had followed him when she saw


    him walk downstairs. And just as she had anticipated, Charles had gone to meet Sheryl.


    Moreover, Le knew clearly that only Sheryl was capable of inflicting such pain to Charles'' heart.


    However, today, Le was happy. Sheryl and Charles''s meeting had ended acrimoniously, which was


    exactly the result she wanted.


    "Go away. Leave me alone," Charles said coldly as he pulled his hand from Le''s grasp. Swiftly, he


    walked away from her. He seemed to have no patience for her nonsense.


    Le was smart enough to know that Charles was in a terrible mood. And she had no desire to make


    things worse for him.


    Fortunately, before Charles could snap at her, she followed him quietly.


    In his anger, Charles didn''t pay much heed to the things around him.


    Right at this moment, Le heard the honking of a car. She looked around and noticed a car speeding


    towards Charles.


    But Charles didn''t see the car nor hear the horns as he was immersed in his thoughts.


    "Charles..."


    Le was extremely nervous. She quickly ran towards Charles and pushed him down onto the curb.


    "Ah..."


    Le was thrown onto the ground by the car. It was not a fatal injury, but Le felt that she was going to


    break into pieces.


    The driver suddenly hit the brakes, to stop any further damage.


    Charles finally regained his senses. When he saw Le lying on the ground, he realized what had


    happened. So he rushed to her and pulled her into his arms.


    "Le, how are you?" Charles asked, looking truly worried.


    He felt extremely guilty because he knew that Le had been hurt trying to save him.


    The driver also got out at the same time. He looked at both of them nervously and said, "I have


    pressed the horn, and I also made sure I hit the break. But you didn''t dodge. I didn''t mean it..."


    "Shut up. No one asked you to take any responsibility,"


    Charles snapped at the driver when he heard his nagging.


    He checked Le roughly and found her injuries weren''t serious. She had a few scrapes. But just to be


    sure everything was fine, Charles nned to take her to the hospital.


    Once again, he nced back at the driver. He told the man to leave since he didn''t want more trouble.


    At the hospital, it was quite busy.


    It just so happened that it was Cassie who was bandaging up Le''s injuries.


    Anger welled up inside Cassie since Charles seemed so concerned about Le''s injury. ''It is such a


    minor wound! Why does he care so much?'' she wondered. So when she was bandaging, she exerted a


    little more strength on purpose.


    "Ouch. Could you please do it more gently?" Le couldn''t help but shout out when she felt a piercing


    pain.


    "Lower your voice. These scrapes won''t kill you, but if I don''t bandage it tightly, then it may get infected


    easily. Do you want these to leave a scar?" Cassie questioned Le, with a sneer.


    As she spoke, Cassie had made up her mind that she wouldn''t spare Le.


    Instead of bothering to answer, Le endured the pain. After all, she was a woman who cared a lot


    about how she looked. And being left with a scar wasn''t something she could tolerate.


    Le bit her lips, not letting out another sound.


    When Charles saw the terrible expression on Le''s face, he thought she was badly hurt. Out of worry,


    he pushed the door open and entered.


    "Cassie, is Le all right?" Charles asked Cassie, with knitted eyebrows.


    Cassie lifted her head to look at Charles when she heard his question. His concern convinced her that


    he was worrying way too much about Le. Cassie almost snapped at him but controlled her temper


    because of her professionalism as a nurse.


    "Don''t worry. She just has a few scratches and scrapes. And even if something happened to her, it


    must be because she has done too many terrible things. Consider that a punishment from God."


    This was the first time that Cassie had spoken in this tone to Charles. The love she had for Sheryl


    Cassie''s words made Charles cast a nce at her. But he wasn''t offended by her words.


    Unfortunately, Le''s face turned red with anger. If Charles hadn''t been present there, she wouldn''t


    have given a second thought before fighting with Cassie. After all, it wasn''t the first time that Cassie


    had messed with her. ''Last time, I pushed Cassie downstairs. I won''t hesitate before doing it again!'' she


    thought with fury.


    All the old and recent grudges made it unbearable for Cassie to tolerate Le. Finally, she went out and


    asked for another nurse to do the bandaging.


    Noticing that Cassie was angry, Le suddenly felt a bit relieved.


    After the wound was thoroughly bandaged, Le went back to the Dream Garden with Charles.


    When they arrived, Melissa immediately rushed to Le, shocked and startled, as if it were her own


    daughter who was injured.


    "Le, why were you so careless? What''s going on? Are you badly hurt? Who did this to you?"


    Melissa began to pour these questions on her. To be honest, Le couldn''t endure her nagging.


    But she was forced to hide her annoyance. Feigning a smile, she replied in an easy tone, "Aunt


    Melissa, calm down first. I''m okay. I just..."


    "Le was hit by a car while trying to save me," Charles replied before Le could finish her sentence.
