Chapter 2019 An Angry Charles
An hourter, a meeting was being held at Charles''pany. David thought that Charles would lose
his temper in the meeting since he was in a bad mood now.
Meanwhile in the conference room, everyone was waiting for Charles to begin.
Charles finally arrived, and as soon as he sat down in the front, the meeting began. The leader of the
department reported on thetest project and everything else followed suit just like a normal business
meeting.
After they all had finished their reports, gone through all the updates, and were preparing to leave,
Charles quickly stood up and suddenly threw down the documents on the conference room table.
"Do you all think that the Shining Company is so rich? Huh? What disgraceful reports!" Charles then
just silently stared at them. Everyone felt so frightened.
They also felt ashamed. With these two emotions mixing within them, no one dared to raise their heads
or speak up.
But these actions, or non-actions, caused Charles to feel even angrier.
"In three days, the leader of the Finance Department will recalcte all the fees of these projects

during the first half of the year," Charles pointed out everything that he was not satisfied with.
Everyone nodded at once because they didn''t and wouldn''t dare to argue with Charles, thepany
President.
The meeting was scheduled tost for an hour, but it actually onlysted half an hour.
After Charles went out of the room, everyone felt more rxed.
David followed Charles out of the venue and into his office.
"Mr. Lu, I put the documents on your desk." David found that Charles was acting out of his normal
character, but he didn''t dare to ask why. He was just going to leave the office after he put down the
documents.
"All right, tell me, David. How is Sheryl doing? Is everything going well?" Charles looked at David with a
serious expression.
All of a sudden, from the anger, that Charles had shown in the meeting room to the concern now
disyed for Sheryl in his office, David was simply confused. He didn''t answer immediately but finally
replied, "Nothing to report at all. Just that I and Nick were making a n."
"What? What are they doing exactly?" Charles'' eyebrows furrowed. He had a bad feeling about this.
David thought for a while, but he finally decided on telling Charles the truth. "They are going to
introduce Sheryl to some potential dating partners." David soon felt guilty for saying it out loud.
Although Charles said nothing, his face turned gloomy and sullen. His fingers repeatedly drummed on
his desk.
"Mr. Lu, are you okay?" David knew that he shouldn''t have told Charles the truth, but at the same time,
he didn''t want to lie to him.
"No problem. Don''t worry about me. Go back to your work." Charles urged David to leave his office.
Once David left, Charles opened Wechat. He had not talked with Sheryl for a long time. Thest time
they did, their rtionship had ended up in acrimony.
Charles hesitated for a long time, but he finally called Sheryl.
But at that moment, Sheryl was in a meeting. She didn''t have time to see who was calling and rejected
it.
Recently, Sheryl was busy with the new project of the Cloud Advertising Company. The project was not
very difficult, but Sheryl was always a meticulous worker. She wanted to do it perfectly. Otherwise, she
felt there would be many problems in the future.
When she finished work, three hours had passed. Sheryl stretched her arms and legs and told Phoebe
to get her a cup of coffee. She took a sip of the coffee and finally remembered someone had called her
before. She pulled out her phone and took a look.
When Sheryl saw the familiar name, she froze in shock.
Secretly, she thought about Charles almost every day. But she had not seen him for a long time. Now,
she almost forgot what his face looked like!
''Why did he call me? Does he want to try and win me back? Does he think that I will forgive him so
easily?''
Sheryl couldn''t help smiling coldly at herself. Why did she always wait for him and his damn call?
Deciding that now that she had missed his call, she would not call him back. It was fate. She must think
about her future without Charles in it.
She put down the phone and was going to start working. When all of a sudden, Phoebe rushed into her
office with a nervous expression.
"Phoebe, please knock on the door before you enter my office next time. Don''t act like I." Sheryl
tried to make a joke with Phoebe.
"Ms. Xia, Jackson and his fiancée havee here!" Phoebe could not feel rxed at all because she
was afraid that these people would fight with Sheryl.
"What''s the matter? Why are you being so nervous?" Sheryl waspletely rxed.
Phoebe didn''t have time to answer her question, for Jackson had already knocked on the door.
"Pleasee in." Jackson opened the door and stepped inside, along with his fiancée Belinda.
Both walked towards Sheryl with a big smile on their faces. But Phoebe was so frightened that she hid
behind Sheryl. She didn''t know what to say or act.
"So how can I help you two?" Sheryl looked more rxed than worried.
"Hello, Sheryl! We came here to give you the invitation card for our wedding reception. We are going to
get married soon and hope you wille. Do you think you will be able to attend our wedding?"
Belinda couldn''t wait to ask.
They had met each other many times and had slowly learned about each other. Therefore, they were
now friends.
"Of course! Even if you hadn''t invited me, I would havee and attended your wedding!" Sheryl said
jokingly while smiling.
Belinda sat opposite of Sheryl and gave her their invitation card. She shrugged and said with a smile,
"We also wanted to visit you. I can''t remember the time when west visited each other. It''s been a
long time, hasn''t it Sheryl? Do you have any timeter? We would like to invite you to have lunch with
us."
"Ha-ha, sure, Belinda, if you''ll pay the bill?" Sheryl asked as a joke but actually meaning it as well.
"Of course! Thanks to you, we''ve finally realized that we love each other very much. So we will pay the
bill in appreciation to you." Jackson hugged Belinda, and they looked at each other, smiling sweetly.
Whoever saw their smiling joy would be envious of their affection.
"All right, all right. I ept your invitation, but don''t show off your affection the whole day!" Sheryl
pretended to be tired of their sweet smiles.
"Okay. We will see you at noon then," Belinda said, confirming their lunch date together. She was afraid
that Sheryl would refuse it.
"Sure!"
"Okay, we are going to go shopping now. We will pick you up when you are all done with your work."
Belinda smiled reassuringly at Sheryl. They then both left together as rich couples usually do, without a
care in the world.
After they had left, Phoebe felt confused. She looked at Sheryl and said, "Ms. Xia, when did you
be her friend?" "I thought she would create some drama and tension against you."
Sheryl saw Phoebe''s frightened expression and couldn''t help but shake her head. She said with a
smile, "Jackson is my friend, and Belinda is a clever girl. I have exined the misunderstanding to her.
We have been friends since then. Don''t worry so much."
Phoebe didn''t feel rxed until Sheryl fully exined it to her.
"Well, I see now. Do you need me to drive you to the restaurant?" Phoebe asked Sheryl as she put
away the documents.
Sheryl shook her head. "No, Phoebe. It''s fine. I can go there on foot. It is not far from here."
"All right. I''ll get out of your office and finish my work." After saying this, she left Sheryl''s office
immediately.
