The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1033

Never had George been such a busy bee. Now that he decided to get married, he naturally had many things to do. First, he arranged for a place for Sula's parents to stay in, and then he drove Sula and Donna back home so they could rest. The next thing on the list was to see Sheryl and ask her to help him decorate the wedding ceremony venue.

After all, Sheryl was a professional in event styling. He would be more confident about the venue's look if he asked for her help. He immediately drove to her place, and after a while, he finally stopped at his destination.

"Wedding venue decoration?" Sheryl said with furrowed brows after hearing George's request. "Mr. Han, have you forgotten about the deal we made before?" she couldn't help but ask.

"No, no, no. You must have misunderstood me," George immediately replied with a shake of his head. Sheryl looked even more confused, but he just gently smiled and began to explain. "This wedding has nothing to do with Holley at all. I will get married soon. The bride is not Holley, but Sula."

"Sula?" Sheryl asked and paused for a moment. Of course, she knew this woman. However…wasn't it Holley that George liked? If she remembered correctly, George never liked Sula before—but how come he was suddenly getting married to her now?

"Yes, it is Sula," George repeated to confirm Sheryl's question. His lips curved up into a soft smile at the thought of his upcoming marriage to Sula. "I know it is a little surprising, but I have made this decision after careful consideration. What's more...I will be a father soon, so I need to give Sula the status that she should have," he said.

He looked at Sheryl sincerely and continued, "I came here to see you…because I really couldn't find other competent people like you. I hope that our wedding ceremony could proceed successfully within a week. After having thought of it over and over, I realized that you're the only one qualified for this job." "I promise that the price is not a problem. I'd be really happy and grateful if you could help me out with the wedding preparations," he hastily added.

"Actually, one week is also too short for me," Sheryl said with knitted brows when she heard the preparation time George requested. "I know," George admitted with a slight nod of his head.

A small sigh escaped his lips as he thought about the situation. "I know it's really urgent, but I believe you can help me out with it. Please, just do me this favor," he asked in a pleading voice.

Sheryl hesitated for a bit, but when she saw the sincerity in George's eyes, she relented and nodded her head. "Okay. Since you genuinely asked for my help, I couldn't refuse you. Have you booked any hotel as your wedding ceremony venue?"

"Yes, I have," George said and proceeded to give her more details about what he had already done. He then pulled out a business card from his wallet and handed it to Sheryl. "This is the hotel name and address. Oh, I also need to tell you what we want for the wedding decorations and style. I asked Sula, and she preferred the ceremony to be held in the garden. When you arrive at the hotel, you can contact the boss who is my friend, and he will take you to see the venue," he said.

With eyes still on Sheryl, he apologized for asking her at the last minute. "I'm really sorry for this. The schedule is too tight, and I have to deal with other things."

"You may have to be in charge of everything to do with the wedding venue," he ruefully added. "I hope I won't disappoint you," Sheryl replied with a wry smile as she realized it would be a knotty work.

After they finished talking about the wedding venue, Sheryl bid George goodbye and began to busy herself with the wedding ceremony affairs—until Anthony called her up.

"Sher, did you talk or meet up with Sue today?" he asked over the line. "No, is there something up with her?" Sheryl asked in confusion.

"She's missing," Anthony's worried voice came from the phone. What happened was he took Sue out for a stroll at the park since he had free time. He left for a while to buy a bottle of water, but when he came back, Sue was nowhere to be found.

The first person he thought Sue would go to was Sheryl. However, it turned out that Sue didn't call or go to Sheryl at all. It immediately made him worried and anxious.

"Is it possible…?" Before Sheryl finished her words, Anthony had understood what she wanted to say. "If it is true, that would be terribly bad," he said with a sad smile.

"Don't worry. Just calm down," Sher tried to reassure Anthony. "Maybe Sue just walked somewhere and wanted to stay alone for a while. You just stay there. I will go to you in a bit."

After she hung up the call, Sheryl handed her half-written plan to one of her staff and hurriedly drove to where Anthony was.

When she arrived at the park, Laura was already there. They had previously searched every place across the park but to no avail.
