His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1181 Provocation

Rachel's laughter was filled with contempt and provocation, which severely annoyed Sheryl, leaving

her in a state of anxiety. Sheryl involuntarily moved the computer's mouse to check her email.

She received an email message and holding her breath, clicked on the new unopened email with a

shaky hand. She encouraged herself to be strong, yet she was shocked and heartbroken at the sight of

the photos in front of her.

She thought about whether the photos were real and pondered on the thought, in the hope that she

would convince herself that they were indeed fake. However, they looked real.

'Is Charles secretly dating Rachel? If that's the case, then why does he treat me so well?

If he has nothing to do with Rachel, then why on earth would he risk meeting her in private at Lavender

Bar?' she brooded. Going through the photos, which seemed rather convincing, Sheryl wondered to

herself whether it was enough to prove that they were indeed in a relationship.

At the mere thought of this, Sheryl felt her heart contort. She immediately felt like she was going to

have an anxiety attack and she had trouble breathing. A dizzy spell also came over her, leaving her

vision blurred. 'What did I do to deserve this? Am I going to lose him?' she wondered, sneering while

holding her chest that was in pain.

All of the happy moments spent between her and Charles flashed inside of her mind. At that point, she

couldn't even comprehend the moment her husband started to get sick of her.

"Don't you just love my gift, Sheryl? I bet that you would love to have a conversation with me in person

now. Am I correct?" Rachel suggested. Hearing Sheryl gasping for air, Rachel felt pleased with herself.

Judging by the sound, she speculated that Sheryl had browsed through all of the pictures she had sent

her.

Sheryl's tone aroused Rachel's wild imagination. She suspected that Sheryl was consumed by a state

of panic and pain. The more she thought about the pain she had caused, the more satisfied she was.

"Where are you? I need to see you," Sheryl said as she breathed and tried to regain her composure.

She initially believed that things would be fine if she pretended as if nothing had happened. However,

now Rachel had sent her this. If she continued to play dumb, she might just lose her husband forever.

'I can't stand by a second longer. I should go meet with her to try and figure out what is going on

between the two of them, ' she resolved.

"See...I knew you would be very interested in those pictures. I am currently in Tarsan Corporation. You

can come over to my office directly if you'd like. I will wait for you here," Rachel concluded with

satisfaction before hanging up the phone.

"I feel that we are close to getting exactly what we want. What do you say?" Rachel exclaimed in

excitement. Sheryl's reaction served as a great comfort to her. 'It seems as though I will get Charles

back in no time.

Even if I don't, at least I will make Sheryl suffer great pain, ' she thought. She was very pleased with

herself.

She derived a ton of pleasure in tormenting Sheryl. She made a grave effort to simply put her enemy

down and went to great lengths to intensify the results. Besides, she enjoyed upsetting Sheryl this way.

She was having plenty of fun.

"Congratulations, Ms. Bai. When Sheryl is here, you can embarrass and humiliate her some more,"

Holley said with a sneer. She looked forward to whatever was about to happen once Sheryl met

Rachel.

'Sheryl has always been blessed by God. So, I'd like to see whether someone would come to her

rescue this time around, ' she thought scornfully.

"I will! I will make her suffer all the insults I have ever felt before. She won't leave here without enduring

agony," Rachel announced with hatred as she recalled her miserable past.

"I have no doubt about that. I am sure that you will teach her a very hard lesson when she is here," Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Holley echoed, cracking a slight evil smile.

Rachel and Holley were immersed in other people's suffering, especially when it came to Sheryl. Back

to Sheryl, who had already taken care of all her urgent work, she grabbed her handbag and tried to

make her way out of the company quickly. Waiting for the lift, Isla noticed her boss dashing out and

decided to quickly rush after her.

"Where are you going in such a hurry, Sher?" she asked as she ran towards Sheryl.

"I'm just going out to meet a client. Have you contacted Lansh Technology yet?" Sheryl responded,

trying hard to hide the emotions that were seeping through her eyes. Even though she wanted to, she

had no intention of filling Isla in on the photos. 'I need to find out the facts first, ' she thought.

"Oh, by the way, I called that company's number several times, but nobody answered the phone. Since

I can't get through to them, I was thinking of going over there myself. I thought that I was a good

employee. Nevertheless, it turns out that you're more active than me," Isla narrated. She didn't suspect

that Sheryl was lying.

"Hmm...Perhaps you should. I must go now. See you later," Sheryl concluded as the lift door opened.

She didn't want to stay with Isla a single second longer, as she couldn't help but think about what she

had seen earlier. She was afraid that her confidant might read her mind.

"Fine, Sher. Drive carefully and call me if anything happens, alright?" Isla said to Sheryl, who was

already in the elevator.

"I will. You can rest assured, Isla. I am not a child," Sheryl responded as she held back her tears. At

that point, she was on the verge of crying.

She felt as though she was losing her loving husband, Charles. She was utterly engulfed with fear and

anxiety.

Her love for Charles was so deep that she couldn't allow any other woman to steal his heart away. It

was her love for him that turned her into a coward in their marriage. Even though she knew Charles

was having an affair, she was reluctant to mention it to him or question him.

She merely did this to guard her marriage and keep the ones she loved from being affected by the

situation.

Once she finished her words, the door closed slowly. Sheryl was left in the lift alone. At the thought of

her upcoming appointment, she felt uneasy and overwhelmed. She couldn't even imagine how Rachel

was about to insult her and sneer at her shamelessly during their meeting. Finally, she arrived at

Tarsan Corporation and entered the building, walking straight up to the front desk.

"Do you have an appointment, Ms. Xia?" the receptionist asked her politely.

Rachel had invited Sheryl to her company to meet with her, but didn't inform the front desk staff of her

visitor. That was why the girl didn't dare to let Sheryl in directly. Since Rachel, the president of the

company, and her new manager, Holley, were both difficult to deal with, she didn't have the guts to

displease them in any manner.

She had to proceed in accordance with company policies no matter who wanted to visit her president.

As a matter of fact, Sheryl made a good impression on the receptionist girl. The latter was grateful to

Sheryl for she helped her keep her job.

Moreover, she admired this female president's remarkable personality.

When Sheryl was rumored as being a cheater, she handled the crisis in a composed manner. The

receptionist was impressed to say the least. Since then, she already thought of Sheryl as her idol.

"Your president invited me," Sheryl replied candidly. Even though she was eager to meet Rachel, she

decided to wait for the receptionist to call her, instead of just walking to her office.

"Oh, I see. Wait here, please. I will call Ms. Bai first." Upon hearing this, the receptionist was surprised,

as she had heard Rachel and Holley talking about Sheryl just a few days ago.
