Chapter 647 Anthony Comes Back


    About three o''clock, Anthony knocked on Sheryl''s door. Shirley rushed to open the door. Upon seeing


    Anthony there, she jumped into his arms and said with happiness,"Tony, you are back finally!"


    Anthony hugged Shirley with love and kissed her on the cheek. He asked with a broad smile,"Did you


    miss me, sweetie?"


    "Yes, I did!" Shirley said vigourously nodding her head. She added,"I missed you so much that I did not


    sleep every day."


    Sherylughed and exposed Shirley''s lie,"Anthony, don''t believe this little liar. She only cared about her


    y during your absence. She slept very soundly every night and didn''t show the smallest sign of


    missing you."


    Sheryl looked at Shirley with amusement and affection. She wondered why Shirley was so naughty.


    Her daughter was so different from her in nature.


    "She knows that you bring loads of gifts for her every time youe back from a trip. She was just


    ttering you." Sheryl voiced Shirley''s true reason for the warm wee she showed Anthony.


    "Sher!" Shirley tried to stop Sheryl from exposing her but it was toote. The damage was done. She


    stared at Sheryl with an injured look and told her not to spread lies about her any more.


    "Fine, I will keep all your secrets safe from now on," Sheryl promised with augh as she busied herself


    cleaning the room.


    "Look Shirley, look what are these?" Many toys suddenly and magically appeared in Anthony''s hands.


    Anthony said with a smile,"I choose to believe Shirley did miss me. I don''t care whether she lied or


    not."


    Sheryl felt very pleased with Anthony''s love for Shirley.


    Shirley squealed with joy and grabbed the toys. She took the toys to her room. She began ying with


    all the toys in no time. Anthony closed the door and walked up to Sheryl. He hugged her tightly from


    behind. He pressed his face on her shoulder and asked her with affection,"Sher, did you miss me?"


    Sheryl gently moved out of his arms. She avoided the question and said with a smile,"You shouldn''t


    always listen to Shirley and pamper her so much. She will get totally spoilt."


    "I like to spoil her and see her sweet and happy smile." Anthony looked deep into Sheryl''s eyes as he


    said,"She is my daughter and I will do anything for her happiness."


    "What do you mean?" Sheryl asked with a blush. "How is she your daughter?"


    "Isn''t she?" Anthony asked,"She will officially be my daughter when we get married. A good father


    should always spoil his daughter. Otherwise, when she grows up she will fall for any man who is a little


    sweet to her."


    "Anthony, stop talking nonsense!" Sheryl said with a coy look at him. She sat down and began folding


    the washed and dried clothes.


    Anthony sat down beside her and asked,"I hope you have not forgotten your promise to me Sher."


    "What did I promise?" Sheryl stopped folding the clothes and looked at Anthony nervously.


    Anthony frowned and said,"Have you forgotten? You said you would visit my parents with me after I


    came back. Then you promised to marry me. Please tell me you are only joking and have not really


    forgotten your promise."


    Somehow, another man''s image flitted into Sheryl''s mind. She shook her head immediately, trying to


    drive away the image from her mind.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    Anthony got worried when he saw her shaking her head. He gripped her hands tightly and asked,"What


    do you mean by shaking your head? You did agree to marry me. Have you changed your mind?"


    "No. I have not changed my mind." Sheryl smiled and consoled him,"I agreed to marry you and I


    always keep my words."


    "Thank God! Sher, you had me worried." Anthony felt reassured.


    Sheryl shed him a nce and questioned,"What about your parents? Have they agreed to meet


    me?"


    "Of course, they have agreed." Anthony said with joy,"I came back to take you and Shirley to meet my


    parents and take their blessings. Let us fix the date of our wedding as soon as possible. Is that okay?"


    "That is perfectly okay," Sheryl agreed with a smile.


    It was a sunny day so Sheryl had aired all her coats in the sunshine. She collected all of them and


    proceeded to fold them carefully with Anthony''s help. Shortly after, Shirley came out and said,"Mom, I


    am hungry. When will we eat?"


    Sheryl looked at Anthony and said,"You promised to take us out for dinner to a new ce. So where is


    this ce?"


    "You will know when we reach there," Anthony said mysteriously. He held Shirley in one arm and


    sped Sheryl''s hand with the other. "Let''s go for dinner right now!" he eximed eagerly.


    All of them were in a happy mood. Shirley had been sad for a long time after she was separated from


    Charlie. But now her smile had reappeared on her face because of Anthony.


    Seeing Shirley''s joyful face in Anthony''s arms, Sheryl told herself repeatedly that she had made a right


    choice. Anthony would always love her and would never betray her.


    "Where are we going?"


    "It''s a secret."


    Sheryl was still very curious about the unknown restaurant. She kept trying to get Anthony to reveal the


    name to her as they were waiting for the elevator. Anthony yfully refused to tell her.


    Both of them were still involved in their yful banter about the secret ce, when the door of the


    elevator opened. Sheryl was embarrassed when she saw Sue in it.


    It was the first time they were seeing each other since their quarrel. Both Sheryl and Sue felt awkward


    and embarrassed.


    "Hi, Sue! Why are you here?" Anthony greeted. He didn''t know all that had happened between Sheryl


    and Sue. He was surprised to see Sue there and thought she hade to meet Sheryl. Then he


    recalled Sheryl had told him that Sue lived in the house opposite to Sheryl''s. "Oh! I forgot. You live here


    too," he said.


    Anthony nced at the food boxes in her hands and asked,"Did you go out to pick up some food?"


    "Yes," Sue answered with hesitation. Then she tried to hide the boxes behind her back secretly.


    "Anthony, when did you get back? Why didn''t you inform me?" she asked Anthony without ncing at


    Sheryl even once.


    Sue felt regret as soon as she uttered the words. ''Why should he inform you of his return?


    Sheryl is his girlfriend and he only needs to keep her informed. You have no right to know such details,


    '' she scolded herself painfully.


    "I..." Anthony stammered as he was taken aback. He cast a nce at Sheryl in embarrassment. He


    really didn''t know how to answer Sue''s strange question.
