Chapter 736 A Surprise Visit To Emily''s Tomb
Charles carefully carried Shirley to the bedroom and tucked her under the quilt. He walked out and
closed the door gently when he made sure she had finally slept soundly.
"She just fell asleep. Don''t wake her up," Charles reminded Sheryl.
"Where are we going?" Sheryl asked him. Charles didn''t answer her question. He saw Nancy came
back. Then he decided to take Sheryl out. He bought a bunch of Chrysanthemums on their way.
Sheryl suddenly realized where he would be taking her.
The destination was exactly the same as her guess.
"We are here," Charles said. Charles lovingly nced at Sheryl before he got off the car and opened
the door for her.
After getting out of the car, somehow, Sheryl couldn''t move and just stood there, frozen. Charles
grabbed her hand and found it was dead cold.
He embraced and consoled her, "Don''t be afraid. I will be with you."
Sheryl wasn''t afraid toe to Emily''s tomb but she felt guilty. She took that medicine to forget
everything partly because Charles had cheated her on Emily''s issue.
She didn''te here to say goodbye to her when she died. In the past three years, she hadn''te to
visit her either. She was worried whether Emily would me her in heaven.
"Let''s go," Charles suggested. He grasped her hand. He knew that the matter about Emily remained a
burden on Sheryl''s heart. So, he took her there that day to clearly exin things to her.
Obviously, Charles was very familiar with the ce. He found Emily''s tomb quite easily. At the sight of
Emily''s smiling face in the photo, Sheryl couldn''t help but burst into tears.
Charles stood beside her, silently. When she stopped crying, he hugged her and said to the tomb,
"Grandma Emily, I have brought Autumn back."
Sheryl kept on apologizing to Emily, totally ignoring to ask Charles why he knew her memory had
recovered.
Charles put the flower aside and walked up to her. "I had no intention to cheat you on purpose. I didn''t
tell you the truth about Grandma Emily''s death simply because of... I didn''t want you to be bothered by
her death. I decided to do that after a discussion with Grandpa. I believed Grandma Emily would agree
if she knew my purpose," he exined.
He looked at Sheryl and added, "You and our babies were more important than everything back then. If
I had a chance to go back, I would have made the same decision."
"I perfectly understand," Sheryl said. Sheryl calmed down gradually. She believed she would have
done the same thing as Charles if she were him in that situation. "I don''t me you. It''s not your fault,"
she added.
"No, you did me me." Charles nced at her and added, "Otherwise, you wouldn''t have left me for
three years or taken that medicine to forget everything."
"I was just..." Sheryl frowned and stammered, "I was driven by... by the medicine to treat my mental
disease. I couldn''t make the right judgment then."
"So do you mean... if you had been sober then, you wouldn''t have left me, right?" Charles asked Sheryl

excitedly while holding her hands.
Sheryl hesitated for a moment and replied, "At least, I wouldn''t have made a decision without careful
consideration."
"Do you mean it?" Charles hugged Sheryl in happiness. "You havee back now and will never leave
me, right?"
"I don''t know..." she answered hesitantly. She pushed him aside and said, "Charles, many things have
changed in the past three years. I was Anthony''s girlfriend during that period. So... Don''t you mind it?"
Although she had never had sex with Anthony during those years, she was still worried Charles
wouldn''t believe her.
However, Charles answered firmly without hesitation, "Sher, you are my Autumn and will always be. No
matter what happened in the past three years, I really don''t care. All I ever want is just you."
"But..." Sheryl frowned and replied after a long while, "Please give me some more time to think it over."
"Okay," he answered. Charles knew he couldn''tpel her to agree so he said, "Please, you can stay
here and be with Grandma Emily as long as you want. I will just wait for you in the car."
"Okay," Sheryl said and nodded. After Charles left, Sheryl just stood in front of the tomb for a long time.
"Sorry, Grandma Emily, I came sote. Did you ever me me?" Sheryl said with tears on her face. "I
didn''te to visit you neither when you just left me nor in the past three years. You must be really
disappointed with me, right?" she asked.
Emily was especially important to Sheryl because the former had brought her up. Now that she had
long passed away, Sheryl felt sorry for not having the chance to take care of her.
"Grandma Emily, I forgot everything about you during those years..." Sheryl began retelling what
happened in the past three years in front of the tomb. She sat there for a long time until it was dusk.
Finally, she patted out the dirt on her clothes and stood up.
"Grandma Emily, I won''t leave this city from now on. I''lle to visit you often," she said before she
left.
She saw Charles smoking as she walked up to the car. Under the light of the setting sun, he looked so
gentle and handsome. Sheryl couldn''t help but gaze at him in awe. Charles put out the cigarette as he
saw her approaching and moved to meet her halfway.
"Let''s go," he said. Looking at Sheryl''s swollen eyes due to the intense crying, he held her hands gently
and said, "Let''s have dinner now."
Sheryl leaned against the seat of the car and closed her eyes to rest. She felt upset. She wanted to talk
to Charles, but she didn''t know how to start it.
Charles took her to a hot pot restaurant and ordered a private room. Then he gave the menu to Sheryl.
"Order food for us, please."
Sheryl didn''t have an appetite but she still chose several dishes because she wanted to have a long
talk with him during the dinner.
"You..." Sheryl said.
"You..." Charles said at the same time.
Both of them wanted to say something to one another.
"You first," Charles said to Sheryl with a smile.
Sheryl nodded and said to Charles, "When did you figure out that my memory has recovered?"
"When you were in the hospital." Charles looked at her and added, "You became weird since you woke
up. I guess, maybe you remembered something. Later on, Nancy called me so I decided to take you
here to see Grandma Emily."
''Oh, Nancy! She has worked at Dream Garden for so many years. She must be willing to do anything
for Charles, '' Sheryl thought.
"Sher, I didn''t hide this from you on purpose." Charles stared at Sheryl and said, "I just... I just couldn''t
find the perfect moment to tell you."
"I truly understand." Sheryl gave a bitter smile. She understood Charles'' feeling because she had been
in the same situation as his.
