Chapter 2085 I Love Her
"Why didn''t you just call instead ofing here? Are you that stupid?" Sheryl asked, putting on a weak
smile.
"Uh, yeah, I don''t know what I was thinking," I murmured then scratched her head, seemingly in a
daze.
Sheryl was rendered speechless. She did not know how to respond.
"Let''s talk about Charles first. How are you feeling about Charles recently? You know, he''s been
helping you a lottely... Do you like that he''s been helping you?" I bombarded Sheryl with
questions.
Sheryl fell silent, not knowing what to say. She didn''t know how to face Charles, and she wasn''t able to
prepare either.
"I''m telling you! Charles has hurt you before, and he''s had affairs. He isn''t good for you! Even though
he''s been very helpfultely, that still doesn''t change the past. I just don''t want you to hold out hope for
him. I won''t allow it, okay?" I said earnestly.
However, Sheryl wasn''t listening to I. She knew how devoted she and Charles had been to one
another when they were still married. Sheryl''s stomach was tied in knots.
"Alright, alright! I, don''t you have anything else to do? Have you finished your work?" Sheryl
suddenly said, purposely changing the topic.
"Oh, my God, Ipletely forgot! I have an appointment! I need to leave, Sher, but you haven''t told me
about Charles yet!" I said.
I then realized that she came to visit to check on how Sheryl was doing in terms of her feelings
toward Charles. Was Sheryl really willing to get back together with Charles after all he''s put her
through?
Sheryl didn''t say a word as she pressed her lips together.
"You still look like you''re in love with Charles! I can''t help but be worried about you, Sher. I want to give
you some advice. You have to move on from the past. Damian''s been pursuing you for so long. Why
don''t you..." I asked. She didn''t know what to make of Sheryl''s strange behavior.
"I can''t possibly marry him," Sheryl blurted out.
I couldn''t understand why Sheryl was being so stubborn. She knew it would take some time before
Damian grew on Sheryl, but it''s not like she waspletely averse towards him.
I knew that Damian was a well-educated man. It also helped that he was quite good-looking too. He
adored Sheryl, and I couldn''t understand why Sheryl wouldn''t just give him a chance.
"Please, listen to me, Sher. Men like Damian are rare! You won''t find anyone else like him!" I kept
trying to convince Sheryl. To her, Sheryl was being unreasonable.
Sheryl was already starting to get annoyed with I. She didn''t say anything, though, as she just kept
her eyes glued on the TV.
Sheryl was busy thinking about Charles and what he was going to do next. ''What would Charles think if
I date Damian? Is he still going to visit me in the next few days?''

Sheryl thought to herself nervously.
"Did you hear me? Sher. Sher. Sher!" I said, nagging. She knew Sheryl wasn''t listening as it was
obvious that she was lost in her own thoughts.
Sheryl snapped out of her trance. She had actually heard I, but she didn''t care for what I was
saying as she only had eyes for Charles. She was with I, but her mind was elsewhere.
"I already told you that I''m not interested in him, I. Why won''t you listen to me?" Sheryl shrugged her
shoulders in response.
"But why? Just tell me why you won''t give him a chance, and we''ll see what we can do about it," I
pressed.
Upon seeing the serious look on I''s face, Sheryl knew that I wasn''t going to let this go if she didn''t
make herself clear.
"Damian is intelligent, and he''s a great guy, but he''s not my type," Sheryl said, sighing.
"All right, then what''s your type? We can look for someone you can date." I was pretty passionate
about this.
Sheryl didn''t utter a word.
"Why do you love Charles? He''s had affairs, he''s hurt you. You''re just being stubborn, Sher. I don''t
know what to do with you anymore," I said.
Sheryl''s face suddenly darkened.
I red at Sheryl. She knew what she said had hit Sheryl hard as it was true.
"Charles has hurt you so much, Sher. I''m telling you, he''s not going to get back together with you. Even
if it seems like he''s been of great help recently, I bet he''s just doing it for his own good. He just doesn''t
like Damian, and he doesn''t want you seeing other people. Why can''t you understand that?"
Sheryl nodded and sighed. "Probably. I don''t want to talk about it anymore, and you should stop talking
about it too."
"Fine. Whatever you want. I can''t understand you. No matter how hard I try, I just can''t understand
you," I growled as she red at Sheryl. Soon, she was walking out of the room.
I was surprised to suddenly run into Damian in the doorway. For a moment, they just awkwardly
stared at each other.
"What are you doing here, Damian?"
I asked. She was extremely shocked to find him here.
"Shh! Sheryl will hear you," Damian whispered as he pointed to the window.
I winked at Damian knowingly. She immediately understood that Damian probably wanted to discuss
Sheryl with her.
"Okay." I nodded in agreement.
She and Damian decided to go to the coffee shop just a few minutes away from the hospital.
I took a sip of her coffee as she nced at Damian. She already knew what he''de here for.
"I feel so embarrassed, Ms. Zhao! I didn''t mean to listen in on your earlier conversation. I''m so sorry!"
"It just so happened that you were there, and you overheard us?" I asked, her tone quizzical.
"Oh, a bit, yeah. I really came here to visit Sher," Damian said rather awkwardly. For some reason, his
face was flushing.
"Oh, you wereing to see Sher? Why were youing to see her?" I pressed.
"I watched the live telecasts today, so…"
"As Sheryl''s best friend, I feel obliged to quiz you about your intentions, Mr. Li," I said matter-of-
factly.
"Okay, okay. I''m telling you everything I know," Damian said defensively upon noticing the cold look on
I''s face.
"Do you love Sher?" I asked.
"I love her more than anything else!" Damian hesitated for a millisecond before answering with a slight
nod of the head.
I was quite satisfied with this response.
"Tell me what you love about her," I nodded in response before continuing her questioning.
Damian grinned before saying, "Well, I love her because she''s so positive and optimistic. Back when I
was in Australia, I met all these beautiful girls, but I never really thought much of them. Sher is different.
She''s open-minded, she''s kind, and she has a strong character. She holds her ground and takes things
in stride no matter what happens,"
Damian finished with a triumphant look on his face. Then he asked again, "Have you felt that way
before about someone else, Ms. Zhao? That whenever you''re with the person you love, you feel happy
and satisfied even if you''re not doing anything. Just being with that person is enough to make you
happy."
I was nodding in agreement.
She really believed Damian to be sincere as Damian''s words tugged at her heartstrings.
She felt as if what Damian had just said really spoke to her soul.
