"Thank you, Miss Ye, " all the models expressed their gratitude. These models had been used to arduous training. Moreover, they had to be on a diet for keeping slim. That was why this business trip was a precious time for them to relax and eat heartily. Even if it meant that they had to lose weight by taking exercises later on.
A model put on a big smile and buttered Holley up, "Miss Ye, why don't you eat?"
"Me?" Holley gave a soft smile. Then she answered in a faint voice, "I don't like eating seafood since childhood. To be honest, I am allergic to seafood. So it is better for me to just eat cabbages."
Holley picked some cabbages up by chopsticks and continued, "It's unfortunate that I can't eat this seafood. So all of you must eat more for my sake."
Hearing Holley said that she was allergic to seafood, Sheryl suddenly raised her head. If she remembered correctly, someone close to her also had an allergy to seafood.
Oh, it was Yvonne!
Right, it definitely was Yvonne.
Sheryl hadn't thought of Yvonne for a long time. If her memory served her right, Yvonne was also allergic to seafood.
Yvonne had been sentenced into jail before Ferry rescued her. Nobody knew Yvonne's whereabouts since then.
Sheryl knew Yvonne too well. She was not the kind of person who would give up easily. Could it be… Could she have been sneaking back and keeping waiting for the perfect time to have revenge?
Sheryl stared at Holley and kept thinking about whether she had some relationship with Yvonne. Or… was it possible that she was Yvonne herself?
No, that was impossible!
Sheryl shook her head in an attempt to shun such an unrealistic idea. It was impossible. How could Holley be Yvonne?
They were barely related to each other in any way. They were absolutely different from each other.
It was then that Holley realized that Sheryl's eyes fixed on her. Instantly, something occurred to her about what she had said. Did she just accidentally spill the bean?
A slight tinge of panic got her nerves before she calmed down. Then she smiled at Sheryl and asked, "Sher, what are you thinking?"
"Nothing," Sheryl shook her head as she replied. Then she added, "I just thought that you look like a person I know."
Hearing Sheryl's statement, Holley felt like panicking again. However, she tried to hide her emotion and pretended to be poised. She put on a gentle smile and asked, "Oh, really? I also think that you look familiar to me, like I have known you before."
Sheryl looked at Holley's smile and felt a bit terrified. She hesitated for a while and inquired, "I always forget to ask you, are you… are you Korean?"
"No." Holley shook her head gently. And then she stated, "Actually I am from Y City."
Sherryl's face instantly turned pale at Holley's words. After a short pause, she asked unsurely, "Are you really from Y City?"
"Yes, definitely." Holley nodded. She then gave a little more details. "When I was a child, I was brought up in Y City. Later on… something unforeseen happened to my family. So I went to Korea after graduating from junior school. I had stayed there before I came here. Actually, I am not familiar with Y City."
"You must have suffered a lot at such a young age when you went to Korea," Sheryl then said. She didn't believe Holley's words at all. Thus, she kept asking as she suddenly wanted to find something. A lie is always lie. Moreover, a lie would surely be exposed as it was talked often.
