The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1566

In Holley's home, she was in a daze.

She sat, pale-faced and stupefied. Her eyes blankly stared somewhere, totally ignoring Black's words.

"Holley, are you listening to me?" Black asked as he felt her inattention. He tugged on her arm, trying to attract her attention.

"Humm... I'm sorry. What did you just say?" Holley asked after she came back to her senses.

"Do you recall offending anyone recently? Why else would someone try to make trouble for you? There is no way anyone would stalk you without a solid reason," Black asked probingly.

Holley was displeased to be questioned, but she didn't show it on her face. She put on a grieved look immediately.

"Black, I am well aware I have put you in a tough spot. I'm sorry for getting you involved in this mess. I think you should let me handle it! I'll take care of myself!" she sobbed. Her pitiful but gorgeous face tugged at Black's heart.

It was hard for him to resist her charms.

"Holley, what are you talking about? How can I leave you alone in this dangerous situation? No, my intention wasn't to bombard you with questions. I merely wanted to figure out who that person was so that we could stop it from happening again!" Black explained quickly to clear up Holley's misunderstanding.

"I'm just an ordinary girl. How could I have offended anyone so powerful?" Holley complained. Black nodded his head realizing her words actually made sense. He couldn't find it in himself to continue asking. The priority now was to protect Holley.

"Don't worry. I have told my father about your problem. He agreed to send some guards to protect you. I'm pretty sure those bad guys that have followed you won't dare to show up again. Moreover, I have announced that you are my fiancee. Nobody can lay a finger on you," Black reassured her, proud of being able to help her

However, no matter what he said, Holley's mind couldn't find peace.

Ever since Ferry found her, she lived with a feeling of an impending doom.

'What can Black do for me?

The only thing he can do well is brag. While I am trouble, he keeps bragging about his family and power. When compared to Ferry's power, the Hu family is nothing!' Holley thought with fear once again oozing out of her body. She knew Black couldn't do a thing to intimidate Ferry. On the contrary, Ferry would send Black running for his life if they ever came face to face.

Holley's face turned sullen as she was tired of Black's complacent boasts.

Only a while ago, Ferry had assaulted her. 'Where was Black and his powerful family while I went through that stigma?' she thought with fury.

Just the mere thought of Ferry left her trembling. Everything that had happened five hours ago came rushing back to her.

With a sigh, she remembered it all over again.

"Are you planning on hiding from me forever? Do you think that will work?" Ferry asked with a sneer.

His voice was poisonous to Holley. She felt herself paralyzed as soon as she heard it.

She was both afraid and nervous. The only thing she could do was stare at him since her body was unable to move even a bit.

"Are you afraid of me?" All of a sudden Ferry approached her and held her chin intimately. He smiled maliciously and asked, "Do you think that you can get away from me? Or do you think that I know nothing about your crimes?"

Suddenly he leaned back and laughed hysterically like a psychopath.

"What...what do you want from me?" Holley asked in a trembling voice after mustering up the courage.

"Don't act naive. I am sure you know what I want! I want you! I want to fuck you. You are my woman." Ferry spoke with lust written all over his face. The next moment, he threw Holley on the bed, pouncing on her like a wild animal. Quickly, he stripped her off.
