Chapter 2008 Express My Feelings


    "Okay, I see. I''ll get ready." Since Melissa had solved the problem with Belinda, she felt a lot lighter


    than before.


    After quickly washing up, Melissa joined Charles for dinner.


    "Charles, have you made things clear to Vicky?"


    Melissa asked as casually as she could. Sheryl was no longer a problem for her, so she only had to


    worry about Vicky. If Charles would clear things up with her, there would be a greater chance that he


    and Sheryl could get back together.


    The more she thought, the more nervous she became, so Melissa looked at Charles expectantly.


    Charles'' hand, which was about to take some food, froze in the air. He didn''t raise his head, but he


    frowned. He schooled his face after a moment. Then he looked up and responded, "Mother, I''ll handle


    my problems. You don''t need to worry."


    "Do you think I''m being annoying?"


    Melissa kept staring at Charles, her face showing displeasure at his attitude. She thought her son was


    reacting too slowly and was being unreasonable. ''Does he want to give up on Sheryl?''


    "No, Mother. I just said that I''ll handle it. Can you stop worrying?" Charles mirrored her expression and


    looked at Melissa just as testily.


    Controlling himself was hard. If Melissa wasn''t his own mother, he would have lost his temper a long


    time ago.


    Melissa found Charles'' expression a little surprising, and she rolled her eyes before forcing a smile.


    "Charles, I didn''t mean it like that. Don''t be mad."


    She didn''t want to push Charles too far right now because he would get even angrier.


    "I''m sorry, Mother. I''m not mad. I just don''t want you to worry. Everything will be fine." Charles had no


    idea what else to say to Melissa, so he had to soothe her for the moment.


    What he had just said was enough, and it worked for Melissa, who feltforted when she heard that.


    "Fine, fine. Since you say so, I won''t ask anymore." Melissa smiled knowingly and gestured for Charles


    to start eating.


    The two stopped talking, and it was awkward at the table, but neither of them was willing to break the


    ice.


    After dinner, Charles made an excuse and went to his study on the second floor.


    Melissa tried to say something but stopped herself. She watched him go upstairs and then sighed. "I


    don''t know when he''ll make up with Sher."


    "My Lady, rx. You can''t be too anxious. Just let it be." Nancy was cleaning up the dinner table and


    heard Melissa''s words, so sheforted her.


    "Hmm, I hope so," Melissa absently answered and listlessly went to her bedroom.


    Charles tossed and turned the whole night, his thoughts filled with Sheryl.


    Although Sheryl had no special rtionship with Jackson, Charles had to admit that Melissa''s worry


    was not unfounded. If he didn''t clear things up with Vicky, the woman he loved might already have left


    with another man.


    The next day


    Charles was still drowsy, and when he went downstairs, Melissa and Nancy were making breakfast.


    "Mother, what are you doing?" Charles had rarely ever seen Melissa make breakfast. Seeing that she


    was so attentive today, he was touched.


    "I''m making sandwiches, your favorite. I know you like to eat it, so I wanted to make some for you."


    Melissa looked up from what she was doing and smiled at Charles, who was watching them from the


    stairs.


    Charles smiled and quickly walked to Melissa. He nced at the food she was making and nodded in


    approval. "Hmm, nice."


    If only the matter with Vicky could be ignored, Dream Garden would be full ofughter.


    But theughter of just two people was not enough because they just missed Sheryl and the two kids


    more during times like this.


    After they finished eating breakfast, Charles went to work, and Melissa was left with nothing to do in


    Dream Garden.


    "My Lady, if you''re tired, please go upstairs to rest," Nancy said as she saw Melissa pacing around the


    living room.


    "I''m not tired. I''m just worried. A lot happened recently. Remember to keep in touch with Joan and


    check if Sher needs any help. Understand?" Melissa couldn''t stop being concerned about Sheryl, so


    she told Nancy to keep an eye on them.


    "My Lady, don''t worry. Joan is dutifully taking care of Sher and the kids. No need to worry about it. If


    something''s wrong, she''ll tell me," Nancy promised Melissa, trying to reassure the anxious woman.


    "Hmm, alright. I''m going to y cards with my friends. Call me if something happens." After saying that,


    Melissa walked out.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.

    I barely managed to drag her tired body along as she walked into Sheryl''s office, visibly in low


    spirits.


    "Sher, help me...I''m exhausted. That jerk, Aron, definitely did it on purpose. He and the kid are abroad


    in a different time zone, yet he often calls me despite knowing it''s midnight here. Why do you think he''s


    doing that?" I drooped in her seat across from Sheryl, her face buried in her hands.


    Putting down the pen in her hand, Sheryl nced at I, who looked exhausted. She couldn''t help but


    back in two days anyway."


    Sheryl had nned tofort I, but when she started speaking, she couldn''t help but tease her


    friend.


    "I thought you''re my bestie, Sheryl, but now you''re on Aron''s side!" I huffed and red at Sheryl,


    and she even mmed her palms on the office table toplete her act.


    Seeing I pound on the table with both hands like a child, Sheryl couldn''t help but shake her head


    andugh. "Don''t! You''ll scare me. If you can, do it in front of Aron."


    "You''re awesome. Sheryl, you''ve learned how to ruin our rtionship, huh?" I pouted even more and


    scowled at Sheryl.


    "Oh, so now you''re scared? You said you''d beat Aron to death, but he''s the only one in your heart. You


    just said that. Youin about him in front of me, but you only want to show off your deep love for


    each other, right?" Sheryl exposed I''s intention immediately.


    "Ah, don''t make fun of me! I just think he''s so needy recently. Even when he stays abroad, he still calls


    me several times every day. I don''t know if he''s worried about me or if he''s afraid that I''ll be worried


    about him." I couldn''t help butin more.


    "Be content. In fact, not many people can stay with the ones they love. You''re very lucky." Sheryl let out


    a sigh filled with emotion.


    I nodded, and she knew what Sheryl meant, but she didn''t know how tofort Sheryl.


    "Hey, why do you look like that? Do you think I don''t understand you? I''m fine, and I''m not talking about


    myself. I just said what I feel." Sheryl saw I''s face suddenly turn cold and easily guessed what was


    on her mind.
