The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1165

"Let's go to that corner and wait. We will be discovered if we continue to stay here," Holley said, changing the subject instantly.

"Okay," Rachel agreed without a second thought. She trusted in Holley. She was convinced that she could achieve her goal more easily with her sidekick's support.

Half an hour later, Charles arrived at Lavender Bar and Lance was waiting for him at the entrance. Lance owned the bar; he wanted to show his hospitality to the very important guest.

The instant Charles' car stopped, Lance strode towards it and opened the door for his distinguished guest. "Mr. Lu, I highly appreciated your presence at my humble place. Welcome to Lavender Bar," Lance said in a flattering tone.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhan. I'm only here to have some fun. I hope you didn't go into too much trouble for my sake," Charles said. There was no aggression or arrogance in his tone.

"Mr. Lu, you are just being modest. If you wanted to relax yourself, you could go anywhere in the world. But you chose Lavender Bar. I'm humbled by your trust and hence I can't fail you," Lance beamed.

"You do know how to please people, Mr. Zhan," Charles replied, laughing loudly. Lance's charming words lightened his mood.

"I'm glad you are pleased," Lance said with a wide smile. "Oh! I apologize, Mr. Lu. I should have invited you inside. Please, come this way. We can have a drink."

"Oh, sure," Charles replied with a faint smile before stepping into the bar with Lance.

"Ms. Bai, isn't that Mr. Lu?" Holley whispered to her boss as she spotted two figures at the entrance of the bar.

"Yes, that's him. Now, I can sit back and watch this interesting show," Rachel said with a smirk. She was confident that her plan would work this time around.

She intended to seize this opportunity to create a misunderstanding between Sheryl and Charles and make them turn against each other.

Her final purpose was to separate the two and make them stand at the door to their divorce.

She began texting Lance according to Holley's plan.

Her messages would include pleas and threats. She decided to start with a plead, asking Lance to do her a favor. In case he refused her request, her plan was to threaten him with their nasty secret.

The last person in the world Lance would want to know their secret was Charles.

Holley was the one who had come up with this whole plan.
