His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 996

"It's about Holley Ye!" Donna replied. Sheryl smiled politely. She had already guessed the real purpose of the other woman's visit.

"Well...what's wrong with her? Could you elaborate and give me more details? I'm not following you," Sheryl responded flatly.

"Here's the thing," Donna began. She took a sip of water and continued, "You must have heard about Holley and my son George, right?"

"Of course I have," Sheryl nodded, looking at her. "Mr. Han is my former boss. They are a good match," she added.

Donna frowned at Sheryl's remarks. She then shook her head slightly. "To be honest with you, I don't agree with that and I don't approve their seeing each other."

"Is that so? I'm sorry to hear that," Sheryl replied with mock surprise. "But Holley is good-looking. Besides, she and Mr. Han are mutually attached. Why do you oppose them being together?" she asked.

Donna wrinkled her nose and her brows as she replied, "I have a feeling that Holley is not a simple girl. I have already arranged a good match for George long time ago. But since he and Holley met three years ago, George hasn't been keen on my match for him, and has been insisting on staying with Holley."

She paused, heaved a sigh, and continued, not waiting for Sheryl to interject, "To tell you the truth, I don't like Holley. She is not from a wealthy family, and more importantly, I don't think she is a good girl. If George continues to stay with her, I am afraid that she might get him into big trouble."

With a bitter smile, she added, "I only have one son. I admit that sometimes I am manipulative, but I have done all of this for his sake. People who come from families like mine only hope to find a good match for their children. Even if he dated a good girl from a poor family, I would not oppose them. But I will never allow Holley to marry into my family."

Sheryl looked Donna calmly in the face. "But as far as I know, Mr. Han and Holley love each other. Even though you are not happy with them, I don't think you can split them up," she told her.

"You got me," Donna sighed. "I did everything I could to make them break up but I failed. Now I don't know what to do. So I came to you. I hope you can help me."

"Me?" Sheryl was dumbfounded. She was about to say something else, but stopped herself when a waitress came over to their table to put their food on it. Turning on the stove, she began to cook their pork chops for them, occasionally turning the meat over in order to cook them through. Shirley looked at Donna and gave her a confused smile. "Aunt Donna, you've confused me...It's about Mr. Han and Holley...How can I help you?"

"Let's cut to the chase, Sher," Donna said, fixing Sheryl with a look.

Sheryl nodded and smiled at her. Although she was more than willing to team up with Donna, she needed to know her real motives. Sheryl didn't want to make a mistake on any account.

When Sheryl remained silent, Donna continued, "At the charity auction Cary hosted, I saw that you and Holley had an argument and I thought that you would join me against her. I think we could make a good team."
