His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1202 Get Tripped

Rachel took a sip of the steaming hot soup and lifted her head from the soup bowl. "Of course I do. Do

you have any good idea?" she asked, fixing her eyes on Holley. In regards to Sheryl, Rachel counted

on Holley's advice.

Despite the fact that none of Holley's tricks to set Sheryl up had worked till now, she was relentless in

her efforts.

Her sole purpose was to make Sheryl leave Charles.

Nothing felt so pleasant to Holley than to see Sheryl suffer. She could go to any length to torment her

half-sister.

As Rachel kept staring at Holley, she could see Holley's face turn into a heinous smile. "Yes, I do.

Please wait and watch," Holley replied. Her face brightened up as she fixed her gaze at someone who

had just entered the restaurant. Her face brimmed with confidence. Rachel did not need any hint to

understand that Holey was staring at Sheryl. It was clear that she had come up with a really evil idea.

Slowly, a crooked smile appeared on Rachel's face as well.

"I came here before. The food is yummy," Sheryl remarked as she entered the restaurant with Isla.

Sheryl remembered coming to this place once with Charles.

"See? I knew you would love this place." Touching her stomach, Isla urged, "Hurry up. I am starving."

Talking and laughing, they quickened their pace. They had spent a whole morning helping Nick deal

with all kinds of discharge formalities and pack up his stuff. As a result, they were exhausted and

hungry. Focusing on the palatable cuisine they were going to relish, they didn't notice Holley and

Rachel sitting at a nearby table.

Holley remained silent and she even gestured for Rachel to be quiet. Rachel nodded and waited for

Holley to unfold her plan.

Side by side, Sheryl and Isla strode forward. Slowly, the distance between them and the table where

Rachel and Holley were sitting was getting closer.

As Sheryl was about to walk past them, Holley stuck out her right foot under the table to block Sheryl's

way swiftly. Neither Sheryl nor Isla had expected that.

Caught off guard, Sheryl tripped and fell to the floor hard. Although the floor was made of wood, the

heavy fall almost killed her.

"Ah!" she screeched. Sheryl fell on her side and half of her face hit the floor. For a moment, she got

scared that her face might get distorted. She felt a throbbing pain coming from her cheek as if her

cheekbones had got broken.

"Are you okay, Sher?" Isla inquired with a rattled expression, gaping at her friend on the floor. The

moment she crouched down in an attempt to help Sheryl up, she caught a glimpse of the one who

organized this accident.

After throwing Holley a furious look, she squatted down to check her friend. With worry written all over

her face, she asked anxiously, "How are you feeling? Where did you get injured? Are you all right?"

It hurt so much that Sheryl couldn't utter a word. She struggled to move while a sense of excruciating

anguish ran through her body. As a result, she chose to remain still. After a while, she opened her

mouth, "I'm fine. I will be up soon."

'If I let Isla give me a hand, she might touch the parts I got injured. I should help myself up, ' she

decided.

After Sheryl assured her that she was able to get up on her own, Isla turned to Holley. "What's wrong

with you, Holley? How could you do this to Sheryl in public? I don't get it. Why would such an evil

woman like you be still alive?" Isla scolded Holley and stared with her eyes dilated. If eyes could kill,

Isla would have burned Holley alive right there. She was enraged beyond words to see Sheryl's face

twisted in pain.

Holley pretended to have fallen from the sky. She gave a surprised look at Isla as the later hurled

curses on her. "What are you talking about? I did nothing. I even didn't see you come. She didn't watch

her way. How could you put the blame on me?" Holley snapped back, casting Isla a contemptuous

stare. She then looked Rachel in the eye, and the two shared a satisfying smile with each other.

"Looks like you haven't learned much from the lesson I taught you. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come

to try my patience," Sheryl said to Holley menacingly as she lifted herself from the floor slowly.

There was some dirt on her clothes, and her face turned red and swollen. She was still under a lot of

pain. She had also gotten a lot of bruises that remained hidden in her clothes.

Despite the fact that she was in such an awkward situation, she still gave off a powerful aura.

"Sheryl, don't think too much of yourself. I said I didn't see you. It was an accident. Besides, you should

have watched your way. It's your fault, not mine. So stop being paranoid," Holley retorted loudly and

shrugged her shoulder as if she had nothing to do with this.

She didn't care even though many customers were watching them. Rather she was happy that so

many people had their gaze fixed at Sheryl who was certainly not at her graceful best at that time. It

gave her pleasure to see Sheryl swollen in the face and her clothes clad with dirt all over.

Isla could read the contemptuous means that Holley was hiding being her nonchalant look. The fact

that she was deriving pleasure from Sheryl's pitiable state got Isla seething in anger. "You did that on

purpose. I am asking you to say sorry to Sher," Isla demanded coldly as she stood in front of Sheryl

and pointed at Holley's face.

Her icy tone made the air thicken with tension and chill.

"Apology! Seriously? You must be kidding. Why would I do that? Who do think you are? What makes

you think I would do what you ask me to do?" Holley responded with a scornful laugh. Looking at

Sheryl's puffy face, she gloated over her accident. She scoffed, "She didn't watch her steps and she

ended up like this."

"She is right. Some people like to attribute their own mistake to others. What a mean and shameless All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

person," Rachel followed with sarcasm.

"Rachel, I advise you to shut up. Otherwise, you can't blame me if you get injured," Isla warned as she

approached Rachel slowly. Her stare was so piercing that it could even kill anyone. "Or perhaps you

and Holley did all of this. You are her compliance, aren't you?"

"I... I am not her compliance," Rachel stammered. Isla maintained her attacking stance at both of them.

Suddenly, Rachel could feel her heart trembling. The joy on her face disappeared and fear gripped her

mind. With every passing moment in front of Isla's glaring eyes, she could feel that fear grew stronger.

She didn't know what was wrong with her. She swallowed once and kept reassuring herself that there

was nothing to be scared of. Isla was just threatening them. She wouldn't hurt them. Just in time, Isla

spoke again.

"Now that you're not her sidekick, you better hold your tongue if you don't want to get yourself into

trouble," Isla continued as she stared at Rachel with threatening eyes.

"Isla Zhao, you have gone too far. The crowd can be my witness. We were eating here. She was too

careless to take care of herself. How could you put the blame on me? Do you think we have the

superpower to foresee that you would walk past us?" Holley spoke for Rachel as her boss was

rendered speechless.

She had to come to Rachel's rescue lest her boss should vent out anger on her after Sheryl and Isla

left.

Since she still needed Tarsan Corporation to have her back, she couldn't afford to mess with Rachel.

"Yes. They have been here for a long time. They haven't changed their seats. Before you came, they

were at that table. I don't think it's their trick. Perhaps it was just an accident. There is no need to push

them so hard. Besides, this pretty girl didn't get seriously injured. Just let it go. Don't be so mean!" A

man intervened in their dispute.
