His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 999

Donna handed the menu to Sula, smiling. "Sula, here. You order the dishes. You know my tastes better."

Sula hesitated. She looked at Holley and paused for a moment, but then nodded to Donna and took the menu from her.

Holley wasn't very happy about that particular exchange. She thought to herself angrily, 'It's quite obvious that Donna likes her more than me. But I am her future daughter-in-law. What does Sula have that I don't?'

By the time Sula finished ordering the food, George came back with their refreshments. He greeted them with a smile and then placed a cup of watermelon juice in front of Sula, orange juice before Donna and pear juice before Holley. He looked joyously at the ladies and asked, "Have you ordered the food?"

"Yes, we have," Holley smiled and responded. "I've already told the kitchen to prepare our meal. And we have also ordered some extra dishes."

"Wonderful! Mother, the food in this restaurant is very delicious," George turned to Donna and said. "It is so popular that you have to wait in line to book a table here. Holley had come here very early to book this room for us. So you should eat well and make it worth the wait."

"Really?" Donna responded without any emotions. She looked at George and then turned to Holley and said, "Thank you so much, Miss Ye."

Holley smiled and answered with respect, "You are being too polite, Aunt Donna. It's my pleasure."

George was pleased to see that they were having a friendly conversation. 'Everything will be fine as long as Mom gets along with Holley. I couldn't ask for anything more, ' George thought, smiling at them both.

"I'm sure we aren't gathered here just to have a simple meal, right?" Donna asked coldly as she looked at Holley without showing any emotion on her face.

"Of course not," George said with a little embarrassment. "Holley and I have something important to tell you."

George turned to Holley and fixed his gaze on her. He stared at her intently, and the love in his eyes were sincere. Sula, who was sitting beside him, couldn't bear to watch his display of affection anymore, and she looked away. She was bitter and she wanted to leave that place soon.

Holley blushed as she looked back into his loving eyes. She wanted to respond to his romantic gesture, but she saw Donna staring at her with a smirk on her face. Holley hesitated and took a moment to clear her fear. When she finally calmed herself down, she said to George, "We don't have to talk about that right away. We can tell her later. I have another important thing to tell her."

George nodded to her and remained silence, waiting for Holley to speak.

Holley turned back towards Donna. She grabbed her glass and poured some white wine into it. Then she held the glass up and said to Donna, "Aunt Donna, I'm really sorry for what happened yesterday in the meeting room. It was entirely my fault. I wasn't myself yesterday. I shouldn't have lost my temper and yelled at you. I insulted you in front of the staff and I know that it was wrong. I apologize."

Holley paused and closed her eyes in regret. A moment later, she opened her eyes again and continued, "Your anger is natural and I deserve to be punished for my rude behavior. I will gladly accept any punishment you give me. And to show my sincerity, I will drink this cup of wine. Aunt Donna, I hope you can forgive me."

Holley held up her glass and drank the liquid to the last drop in a single gulp. George frowned and said in a displeased tone, "Holley, what are you doing? You are not very good at holding your liquor."
