The Substitute Bride

Sheryl cast a glance at Clark and felt relieved when she found that he was asleep. She walked to the door hurriedly and said to Damian, "Let's talk outside."

Sheryl walked out of the ward first. She needed to find a way to get Damian to leave. She didn't want Clark to wake up and find her gone.

Without any hesitation, Damian followed Sheryl outside.

"Why are you here?" Sheryl asked.

Damian stared at Sheryl affectionately and asked, "Sher, I've been looking for you for so long. Why haven't you called me back?"

"You called?" Sheryl then realized that she had forgotten to charge her phone. She had been so worried about Clark that she hadn't thought about much else.

"Sorry, my phone's battery was flat, so I didn't know you'd called me. By the way, why did you call me? I have to take care of Clark. I don't want him to wake up without me there," Sheryl said gently.

Damian didn't really care about Clark's illness.

All he could think of right now was that Sheryl had lied to him. He didn't believe that Sheryl had just accidentally forgotten to charge her phone. She was just being polite. She just didn't want to see him, and she didn't want to talk to him. She'd deliberately turned her phone off to cut him off.

"Sher!" Damian said, seemingly going crazy. He suddenly stepped forward and tightly grabbed Sheryl's shoulders. "Come with me. Let's go abroad. We'll live our lives like before. We'll be so relaxed, and we'll be so happy."

Sheryl was stunned by this. She wasn't even able to stop him from grabbing her like that.

"Damian, let go of me!" Sheryl shouted angrily.

Damian didn't even respond. He was still immersed in his own thoughts. "Sher, Charles just lied to you. He can't make you happy. He's with another woman for God's sake. You shouldn't even be giving him another chance again, and you shouldn't be thinking about him! Please, come with me. I will be nice to you. You're the only woman I'll ever love. I'll treat your children like they're mine."

"Slap!"

crazy guy and save Sher all the trouble."

Nick nodded. Isla's suggestion was reasonable. They continued talking for a while. Just as they were about to call the police, two strangers suddenly appeared, and they seemed to come from around the corner.

"Miss and Sir, we're here to take Mr. Li. He isn't calm right now. My boss asked us to take him back for now. Please forgive him for what he did. My boss will be responsible for him," one of the strangers said politely.

Isla and Nick looked at each other and asked, "What do you mean? Who is your boss?"

"My boss..." Isla's phone rang before he could finish his words.

"It's from my boss. Please take the call," the man continued.

Isla took out her phone. It was from Duke.

Isla had saved Duke's number because his company and the Cloud Advertising Company had coordinated several times.

Duke? Damian?

Suddenly, Isla recalled Phoebe telling her that she had seen Duke and Damian having dinner together one time. 'Did they have something to do with each other?' thought Isla.

If that was true, then Duke unexpectedly coming to the Cloud Advertising Company in an attempt to work with them was suddenly making sense.

They didn't know Duke, but he was Damian's cousin, which made him a viable partner to do business with.

It wasn't difficult to put together.
