After Ferry hung up, Leila took a deep breath. She came over and sat in front of Holley. Ordering two cups of coffee, she said,"Come on! Tell me what you are going to do next."
Leaning back in her chair, Holley looked at Leila and said in a playful tone,"Well, so you now believe what I have said, huh?"
"Stop this nonsense, Yvonne!" Leila snorted and said,"Even if I have to follow your instructions now, it does not mean I'll do it forever. My current bad luck will change for the better at another time. You might have to follow my instructions some day in the future, who knows?"
Mentally she took an oath that if she became Mrs. Lu, she would find an opportunity to humiliate Holley.
Holley was an escaped prisoner. On this score at least, Leila felt she was better than Holley.
"Stop dreaming. You'll never get bigger or superior to me!" Holley snorted and taking a sip of coffee. She continued,"Listen! From now on, keep in mind all I have told you.
Stop calling me Yvonne. Remember I am Holley Ye. I am not Yvonne and have nothing to do with that name.
Besides, don't come to meet me without my permission. You can send a message to me, and I'll call you back when it's convenient.
And one more thing, whatever I say or do is none of your business. If you happen to meet me anywhere, pretend you don't know me. And you must diligently fulfill all tasks I assign to you, understand?" Holley ordered her like a boss. Leila resented this but she could do nothing. She agreed reluctantly.
"Alright, fine. I got it," she answered awkwardly.
She looked at Holley's delicate face and idly wondered whether Charles would pay more attention to her if she changed herself to resemble Sheryl by means of plastic surgery.
This idea took root in her mind and she couldn't help asking,"Yvonne... sorry, I mean Holley! Is plastic surgery very expensive? Do you think I should change my appearance by plastic surgery to look like Autumn? Would Charles fall in love with me then?"
"Stop dreaming!" Holley said harshly. "Even if you change your face to a fairy's, Charles would never be attracted by you. Autumn is the only woman he has ever loved."
Holley couldn't suppress her anger when she thought about this. God was so unfair! Why was Sheryl so lucky and blessed with all the good things in the world?
She snorted in anger and disgust. Since she had come back, she would never give Sheryl a break. She would slowly but surely take away everything from Sheryl until she had nothing left. Then she would knock her down and defeat her totally.
"As long as Autumn is alive, you will never have a chance to win Charles' heart," Holley sneered. "So, don't count on it."
"Autumn... Autumn!" Leila said, gritting her teeth in frustration. "If it were not for that bitch, I would be living happily with Charles. She has disappeared for three years. Oh, why did she return?"
Holley said coldly,"You should ask yourself this question, Leila. Three years ago, you had such a good opportunity to get rid of Autumn. However she is still alive today. Why?"
