His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1010

"After all the conversations, you just don't want to be with me, do you?" A sarcastic smile was etched on George's face as he probed something out of Holley.

Holley's face took on an unnatural expression when she heard George's question. She stared at his angry face and felt slightly flustered. She immediately walked toward him and held his hand before she made an explanation. "George, please calm down. That is not what I mean."

She then gave him a wry smile as she continued to squeeze his hand. "What I mean is..." Her voice faltered. Then catching his gaze, she earnestly pleaded, "We have to separate from each other temporarily. When you gain a firm foothold in the company, your mother will no longer have the energy to meddle with us. When that time comes, and we still want to be together, then so be it! There will be a lot of opportunities for us by then."

Holley then tried lacing their fingers together. "I know how you feel at this moment. But George, please trust me, I even feel more heartbroken than you. Right now, the most important thing for us is not our love. Do you understand?"

"So what you are saying is that when I gain my footing in BM Corporation, you will come back to me, right? Is that what you exactly mean?" George stared at Holley indifferently and said in apparent disbelief.

"Of course," Holley nodded agreeably as she gave her commitment. She then briefly added, "George, I think you should understand how deeply I am in love with you. But given those things happened at such hard times..." She paused eyeing him tenderly. "I feel like I am overwhelmed. I am kind of confused of these mixed feelings. But I promise you, I will wait here until you come back and be with me again."

"I can't believe my ears. You still keep lying to me at this point." George curved his lips into a sardonic smile. "Wait for me?" he probed as he watched her. "I think you only want to get the money and the company. Soon after, you will discard me outright. Is that so?"

George stood there unblinking, staring hard at Holley and gauging her reactions with his cold eyes. "Holley, never did I imagine that I would be a person who could understand you the least. You disgust me."

"George, what do you mean by that?" Holley's?face suddenly?got pale as if her blood had been drained out of her. She forcefully pulled George's hand and begged, "Please don't believe any of your mother's bullshit. She only wants to separate us. So she is desperately making up some lies one after another to defame me. But please do trust me, no matter what she claims against me, I haven't done those things."

"Enough!" George growled out of anger as he shook off her hand. Then he hissed, "Holley, I don't believe in anything you say to me. You bear in mind that there is no relationship between us from now on."

After throwing these words ruthlessly, George turned to leave immediately without hesitation. But Holley quickly stopped him.

She didn't expect that Donna could not be trusted with her words and even resorted to squealing their deal with George.

At this moment, she couldn't let George just leave like this—she hadn't received the money yet. And to a greater extent, she couldn't afford to break up with him now. Otherwise, she wouldn't get any benefit in the end.

"What do you still want to do? Do you still want to cheat on me?" A faint and scornful smile twisted his mouth as he ridiculed her.

"George, can you listen to my explanation? It just takes a few minutes," Holley pleaded in a soft voice as she gave him a wry smile. "Yes, I admit that I asked for some money from your mother. But please trust me. I did this because I have some difficulties," she added.

"Finally you admitted," George drawled with a hardened expression on his face. A cold smile was plastered on his lips as he inquired, "Holley, is money all that important to you in your mind? How about our love that has existed for the past three years? Is it truly…valueless to you? I guess you find it worthless because you have been trying the whole time to measure it up in terms of money."
