Chapter 1087 The Goose-like Subordinate
The doctor''s words weighed down Charles'' mind like a heavy stone. Melissa, on the other hand, took
the doctor''s diagnosis differently—she thought that God finally knew who the wicked one really was.
Maybe God also felt unsatisfied about what Sheryl did, so he did her a favor.
After the doctor left, Melissa put on her kind facade once again to reassure Charles. "Charles, you don''t
need to listen to what the doctor said. I think my condition isn''t as serious as he said. It''s fine…I just
have nightmares sometimes."
"Mom, the doctor must have had good reasons to give that diagnosis. From now on, you don''t need to
worry about anything. All you need to do is stay in a good mood every day. You can tell me what you
want or any inconvenience you feel in our house. Just rx and enjoy your life now. You can only
gradually recover when you maintain a good mood," he instructed his mother.
Although Melissa said she was fine, Charles didn''t believe it one bit, and was convinced that her
condition was caused by her 15-year sentence in prison. After all, he still wanted to try and make things
up to his mom.
Though she still wanted to say something, she raised her arm to look at her watch. "Oh my God,
Charles, isn''t it time for you to go to work? Be quick or you''ll bete. I''m truly fine. Don''t worry about
me."
ncing at the time, he also realized howte it had gotten. It was a little worrisome as he had
promised to see a customer who happened to be the president of Tarsan Corporation which recently
moved its core business from abroad to Y City. Even though Tarsan Corporation was matched only by

Shining Company, it was unprofessional to bete in their first meeting. But because of Melissa''s poor
condition, Charles was still hesitant to leave her alone. "Mom, is it okay for you to stay at home alone?"
"Charles, if you''re truly busy, just go to work. I don''t have too much work today, so I can stay at home
and apany her. Don''t worry too much, " Sheryl suggested in a soft voice. Originally, Sheryl
nned to go to work today, but she changed her mind when she heard the doctor''s diagnosis of
Melissa. In addition, now that their cooperation with Tarsan Corporation was ended, there were no
urgent affairs she needed to solve. It wasn''t a problem for her to just stay at home.
"Alright. I really have to go now, Sher, please take care of Mom at home," he nodded. With Sheryl
taking care of Melissa, Charles'' worry lifted a little. "Mom, try to rx and enjoy your day. If anything
bad happens, or you don''t feel too good, just call me up."
"I know. Just go to work. Don''t worry about me."
With a gentle smile, Melissa presented her motherly love.
After taking care of that, Charles immediately left Dream Garden. As for the rest, Gary often stayed in
his room and didn''t like stepping out, rk and Shirley had already gone to kindergarten, and Nancy
knew that Melissa wasn''t an easy-going woman, so she preferred staying far away from her. After he
left, only Sheryl and Melissa were left in the living room.
"Mom, how about you go back to your room and rest up?" Sheryl suggested to her mother-inw in a
kind tone. Although Sheryl did feel some awkwardness between them, she had nothing to do but speak
first and attempt to break the ice.
Though she wanted to link what Melissa did with her bad mental condition, Sheryl was no fool. She had
a strong feeling that Melissa didn''t actually have any mental problems. Otherwise, how could Melissa''s
nightmares disappear after she went to her room?
However, that unguarded moment passed quickly as she didn''t want to think of Charles'' mother as a
deceitful woman. What was more, she didn''t even have any real evidence to show that Melissa got
extremely persnickety about her behind Charles'' back.
As soon as her son left, Melissa had no more reason to pretend to be kind. With a roll of her eyes, she
merely ignored Sheryl and shouted as she went downstairs, "Nancy!"
"Mrs. Lu, what can I do for you?"
Nancy hastily rushed over to Melissa as soon as she was called for.
"Prepare breakfast for me now. I haven''t had any yet," she ordered arrogantly. Since everything was
under her control and was progressing in ordance with her n, Melissa was in a rtively good
mood, at least this once.
"Of course, Mrs. Lu," Nancy immediately answered, feeling relieved that Melissa found no faults with
her. Even Nancy herself couldn''t point out why she was always so frightened by Melissa. Before she
went into the kitchen, she spared Sheryl a concerned look.
Ignored by Melissa once again, Sheryl couldn''t tell why she was disliked by her mother-inw so much.
Seeing Melissa''s rather refreshed condition, she also didn''t understand how Melissa could have a
mental illness.
When Charles arrived at Shining Company, the president of Tarsan Corporation hadn''t yet arrived. After
inquiring, he learned from his assistant that the president not only failed toe here on time, but also
failed to call and give them a reason for her absence.
Charles'' eyes narrowed as he watched the clock. It was the Tarsan Corporation''s president who
actively invited him to the meeting. Although Charles had a tight schedule, he still found time in the
midst of his pressing affairs and agreed to see her today. In order to show their sincerity, the president
should have arrived at Shining Company even earlier than the set time. Even as the time for the
appointment passed, there was still no news from the other party. Even Charles found it rather strange.
Meanwhile, at Tarsan Corporation, Rachel nned to go to the meeting as scheduled, but Duncan
interrupted her and said calmly, "Ms. Bai, I have one thing to report to you."
"Leave it for until Ie back," she replied with a poker face. After all, she had been waiting for this
day for too long. If it weren''t for Holley, she would have gone to see Charles the first day she returned.
Just to have an appointment with him, she had gone to great lengths to make sure it pushed through.
Being stopped by someone was definitely not in her n.
"But Ms. Bai, it''s about Cloud Advertising Company, How about…?"
Seeing that Rachel was in a hurry to leave, Duncan quickly blurted out his concerns.
"Cloud Advertising Company?"
Upon hearing thepany''s name, Rachel instantly froze on the spot.
"Yes, Ms. Bai. It''s about their boss, Sheryl. A couple of days ago, I saw the first draft of the banquet
n she made. I don''t think it fits the position of Tarsan Corporation at all. After all, it''s the first party
we''re going to hold in Y City…"
Realizing that it caught Rachel''s attention, Duncan went on to exin the whole story.
When he got through halfway, however, Rachel suddenly got impatient and cut him off. "Get to the
point. How does this end?"
"So for the sake of Tarsan Corporation''s image, I had to end our cooperation with Cloud Advertising
Company without your permission," he quickly answered.
"You did what?"
Hearing Duncan''s answer, she fumed with anger. ring at him, she scolded, "Who gave you the right
to end our cooperation with them?"
At this point, Rachel was extremely furious. Letting Sheryl design their banquet was an intentional
move to carry out her n. Now, her and Holley''s efforts meant nothing.
The goose-like subordinate did a great disservice to her goal. How dare he end their cooperation with
Sheryl without consulting her? How was she supposed to carry out the n now?
"Ms. Bai, I don''t understand. There are so many other advertisementpanies in Y City, those which
are more famous than Cloud Advertising Company. That Sheryl…" He didn''t seem to understand how
angry Rachel was and continued to try and persuade her.
"Shut up! I''ll give you three days. After that''s over, I must see Sheryl''s banquet n. If I don''t see her
n on my desk in three days, you''d better fuck off from mypany!"
