The Apple of My Eye
Chapter 652 Sheryl's Abduction

Sheryl smiled bitterly and asked softly,"Charles, who do you think you are hugging? Is it Autumn or me?"

She had already known she was Autumn. There was no difference no matter he took her as herself or Autumn. But she couldn't help but tease Charles with the question. She just couldn't accept the fact that she was Autumn.

"Don't you know how much I love you?" Charles asked bitterly. He withdrew his hands and sorrowfully stared at her eyes.

He had suffered enough. He wondered why Sheryl still couldn't read the content of his heart.

"You love me? I don't know that." Sheryl turned back to face Charles and said, "I just know I'm Sheryl. I'm Anthony's girlfriend and we are going to be married soon."

Sheryl cast a glance at Charles and said, "I have told you everything clearly and hope you won't bother my life anymore. Why don't you listen to me?"

"Come with me!" Charles grasped Sheryl's wrist suddenly and dragged her out of the ward. Taken aback, Sheryl patted Charles' hand with all her strength but couldn't shake it off.

"Let go of me, Charles!" Sheryl screamed. Charles didn't care about what she said and dragged her into the elevator. As the door of the elevator closed, he saw Anthony staring at him. He stood outside the elevator, as his face got pale out of anger and shock. Charles flashed a cold smile towards his competitor.

From then on, the battle between the two men began. Charles decided not to give way this time.

"Charles! You are crazy!" Sheryl yelled. Sheryl didn't saw Anthony and tried her best to get rid of Charles' hand. Charles got a bit annoyed and warned Sheryl, "If you dare to struggle more, I will kiss you!" Sheryl's face blushed red when she heard his warning. She became quiet immediately and stopped fidgeting in fear that Charles would do as he said.

Charles felt delighted as Sheryl stopped struggling. But he immediately got a tad sad because he realized she was just taken aback by his warning.

After they got out of the elevator, Charles pulled Sheryl and walked towards his car. He opened the door and pushed Sheryl inside his car. She kept asking him where he would take her to but he didn't answer any of her questions.

Sheryl felt more and more nervous as they got increasingly far away from the hospital. She grasped the seat belt, put it on and asked Charles, "Where are we going?"

"You will know when we arrive." Charles still refused to tell her. While she was in panic, her cellphone suddenly rang. The call was from Anthony.

Sheryl picked up the cellphone immediately and said, "Anthony, I..."

Pretending he knew nothing about what happened, Anthony asked her with concern, "Sher, where are you? I heard from a doctor that you were taken away by a man. What happened?"

"I..." Sheryl stammered. Then she glanced at Charles, the man who was once her husband. She didn't want to cause too much trouble for both Anthony and Charles, so she said, "I'm... I'm fine. I have something to deal with now. You can just go home and wait for me there."

"Sher, can you please... please tell me what's going on with you?" Sheryl felt the nerves coming from his voice. But actually, his face showed no sign of being worried. He just very calmly stood in the ward. He felt very painful as Sheryl kept the fact that she was taken away by Charles.

He wondered why Sheryl lied to him.

"I'm fine honey... really." Sheryl wanted to console him but Charles grabbed the cellphone from her. He said to Anthony, "Sher is with me now. She is safe and you don't have to worry."

Anthony grasped his phone tightly in a rage. He was speechless for a while and said, "Charles, what do you want to do?"

"Nothing," Charles answered with a sneer. Then he added, "What I want to do is between Sheryl and me. It's none of your business."

"You're a fucking asshole! Don't you dare lay your dirty hands on her!" Anthony burst furiously. He resisted the urge to throw away his cellphone and firmly said to Charles, "Sheryl is my fiancee now. We will be married soon. You'd better know that I will never surrender her to you. You jerk!"

"Oh, really?" Charles ridiculed. Clearly, he didn't take what Anthony said seriously. "I don't need you to give her to me. Let's compete and see who will win her heart in the end," Charles challenged Anthony. As he finished his words, Charles hung up the phone and turned it off so that Anthony couldn't bother them any longer.

He put the cellphone into the pocket of his suit. "I'll keep your phone temporarily," he said.

Sheryl clenched her teeth out of anger. She stared at Charles and inquired, "How could you be so rude?"

"Because it doesn't work whenever I treat you like a gentleman." Charles added, "I was worried that you would feel uneasy, so I was careful and respectful as I got along with you previously. But that only gave you more chances to avoid me. So I decided to do what I want directly. You can go on trying to stay away from me, but I don't care about what you think anymore. I'll court you whether you like it or not." Too irritated, Sheryl was rendered speechless.. She cast a contemptuous glance at Charles and remarked, "You're really a jerk!"

'How could I fall in love with such a shameless man?' she asked herself.

They had spent quite a long time on the road. When Charles saw Sheryl early that day, he had decided that he must take actions the soonest. He must tell her everything that was in his heart once and for all. So he brought her to the warehouse where she was imprisoned by Ferry three years ago. Everything started in the warehouse. He would rather rebuild their relationship from the same place.
