Chapter 2064 Worry For Sheryl

It only took one touch for Charles to be both terrified and furious when he found Sheryl's skin was too

hot. He immediately called for David to drive them to the hospital as quickly as possible.

There was only silence in the car on the way as Charles held Sheryl close to himself, too afraid to think

of what could've happened if he came to the hotel too late.

Once they were at the hospital, Sheryl was taken into the operating room.

It was only after the treatment that Sheryl finally woke up.

"Doctor, what's wrong with her?" Charles asked with a nervous expression as soon as he saw the

doctor.

The doctor sighed. "She was unconscious because she was drugged. But because you came to the

hospital in time, she's fine now. Any later, and it would've hurt her health."

"All right. I see. Thank you very much." Charles frowned and followed after the doctor to the ward.

When he saw Sheryl still asleep, Charles quietly slipped out and decided that he wouldn't tolerate the

incident. He said to David, "Go to the hotel and catch Damian."

"At once, Mr. Lu." There was nothing else David could say in the face of Charles' fury.

After he waved David off, Charles entered the ward again to see Sheryl's pale face that filled him with

nothing but anger and worry.

When David got to the hotel a while later, he didn't find Damian, so he had no choice but to return to

the hospital.

"He's gone? Where did he go?" It made Charles frown because that must mean Damian was guilty, or

he wouldn't have disappeared.

"Find him now. No matter what happens, you have to find him." Charles looked at David with a furious

expression.

"Understood, Mr. Lu. I will do my best." David left the hospital almost as soon as the words were out of

his mouth.

In the downtown villa

There were dark bags under Vicky's eyes from not sleeping because she was up all night thinking

about her actions. She didn't know if it was right or not. How could she marry Charles? She did so

many things for Charles, and yet Charles still loved Sheryl and hated her.

The anxiety she felt was too much, and she couldn't sit still.

It was at that time that Charles came into the house.

It was a shock for Stella to see him, and she didn't even manage to say a word to him when Charles

stomped past her, heading to Vicky.

The smile on Vicky's face was forced as she said, "Charles, why did you come here? Did you miss

me?"

As much as she tried to pretend that nothing happened, Charles ignored her. "Tell me, how did you

know that Sheryl and another man went to a hotel together?"

When Vicky heard Charles' words, she remembered the call that had instructed her to tell Charles that

she learned about it from an unknown call. She took a deep breath before she spoke.

"I received an unknown call, and I didn't know if it was true or not. But I was scared that it would affect

your reputation, so I told you at once. I just wanted to help you." The frightened expression on Vicky's

face looked almost real.

"Don't lie to me. No one knows about our relationship. Why would they call you?" Charles didn't believe

what Vicky said.

Vicky knew that Charles didn't believe her at all, and she could do nothing but swear, "Charles, that's all

I know. It's true. I don't know why they called me."

After Vicky said that, she bit down on her lips before saying, "How about Sheryl?"

"It's none of your business."

"Charles, I..."

The furious expression on Charles' face was all Vicky needed to see to know how much he cared for

Sheryl.

"If something happens to Sheryl, I won't let you go." After those words and a final glare, Charles left

with no hesitation.

The ground caught Vicky as she shakily sat down due to her fear.

It was her first time to see Charles make such a furious expression. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

It was at that moment that Vicky's phone rang, which made her tremble even harder. She called out to

Stella to go out and buy something before she picked it up. She carefully spoke in a low voice, "Why

are you calling me?"

"You've done very well. You helped both of us at the same time." That man was satisfied with her action

and praised her.

He praised her, but Vicky wasn't happy and looked around before softly saying, "But Sheryl's fine. You

failed."

"Don't worry. Sheryl is fine, but that's not important. The next step is, and you just have to wait

patiently." After saying that, the man hung up.

It made Vicky relax when she heard the man's promise.

In the hospital

Even though the doctor said Sheryl was fine and only needed to rest, Charles still couldn't stop

worrying about her.

"Mr. Lu, please rest. I'll ask others to stay here." David knew that Charles still hadn't rested, which

worried him.

"You can stay outside the ward. I won't leave until Sheryl wakes up." It was a small hope that kept

Charles holding Sheryl's hand, by her bedside, for her to see him first when she opened her eyes.

There was nothing else David could say to Charles when he knew that Charles was very worried about

Sheryl. He quietly left and stayed right outside.

The next day

The news about Sheryl exploded on the net and in the newspapers, but she remained quietly asleep.

"Mr. Lu, bad news!" David rushed into the ward without knocking.

It made Charles frown, but he knew that the news was very important, so he gestured for David to

speak.

"There was a lot of news about Ms. Xia on the net..." David didn't dare to continue speaking and just

handed the phone over to Charles.

'The wife of Shining Company's president seen with another man at midnight!'

All sorts of news about Sheryl appeared on the net, and even if David already contacted online news

companies, he couldn't do anything about online users.

Charles' frown was deep as he looked at David and said, "Hurry up and solve it."

"I've already told the online news companies to remove the news, but it seems that someone is

controlling it, and online users are having a heated discussion about it right now." David looked at

Charles with a sad expression.

It was very strange, but Charles could only wave his hands and tell David to look further into it. "If

there's something wrong, tell me at once."

"Understood, Mr. Lu. I will look into it at once." There was nothing else for David to do, but to try and

stop it from becoming worse.

After David went out of the ward, Charles silently remained seated.

Charles held the still sleeping Sheryl's hand tightly and said a low voice, "Sher, I'm so sorry. This is all

my fault. Can you wake up soon?"

It was his fault because he thought that if he had gotten rid of Vicky earlier, he wouldn't have

disappointed Sher.

That was all so he could marry Sheryl soon, but now, Sheryl wouldn't wake up.

If he didn't make those mistakes, then Damian wouldn't even have had the chance to get close to

Sheryl. The more he thought about what had happened to him and Sheryl ever since Vicky appeared,

made him feel even guiltier.

The more Charles looked at Sheryl's pale face, the more worried he became, and it made him frown

deeper.
