The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1705

Holley clenched her fists angrily. If Ferry was in front of her, she wouldn't have given a second thought before slapping him. She would have lost her self-control if she had confronted him.

"Haven't you already decided to leave Black? I am doing you a favor. Would you give me some credit for it?" Ferry burst into laughter.

"Should I be grateful to you?" Holley lowered her voice as she asked in anger.

"Holley, are you questioning me?" The smile on Ferry's face was gone. Now he was starting to get pissed off.

Detecting the anger in Ferry's voice, Holley realized that she had made a huge mistake. She regretted losing her temper.

"I… No, I am not!" Holley denied immediately. Then she remained silent, not daring to utter another word while waiting for Ferry's instruction.

Ferry was glad that Holley was afraid of him. Leaning on the table, he smiled before he opened his mouth and said, "I know you wouldn't dare to do such a thing."

"Why are you calling me?" Holley got straight to the point since she wanted to wrap this up as soon as possible. She detested talking to Ferry.

"Just wanted to give you a heads-up. Aren't you thinking about breaking Black's heart? Then you should often see that man you were with yesterday. I am sure Black will lose his faith in you completely, do you understand?"

Ferry had no intention of letting Holley go so easily. It was just a matter of days before she would be dead. Until then, he wished to torture her.

"Should I do that? Actually I have a different plan," Holley said, somehow gathering her courage. But she tried to keep her voice low since she didn't want to awaken his anger.

"Sure, do whatever you want!"

Ferry answered without any hesitation, as if he genuinely agreed with Holley.

Holley was surprised. But then something occurred to her. She rolled her eyes and said, shaking her head, "I am just kidding. I will follow your plan!"

"Well, I am kidding too. You can't have thought that I would let you do as you please!" After saying this, Ferry sneered.

Holley was desperate to use the tit-for-tat strategy. But she knew clearly what Ferry was capable of and she, as a little woman, had no chance in beating him down. Just like what happened now, she knew that Ferry wouldn't let her do as she pleased. To him, she was a puppet who had to follow his rules.

After a brief pause, Ferry continued, "So, you'd better show up with him in public as often as possible. I hope the paparazzi would get a chance to snap some pictures of you two. Do you understand?"

"Yes," Holley answered, hiding her frustration.

Ferry was satisfied with her swift replies. Now that he had teased her, he was content.

Once he hung up his phone, Holley threw her cell phone down. But throwing her phone wouldn't make her anger and frustration disappear. In fact, it annoyed her more. She couldn't help but yell, hoping that all of this could be over soon.

In the Hu mansion, things were eerily silent.

Black had stayed home all day. Rex would knock on his bedroom door from time to time, but when Rex got no answer from his son, he became anxious.

At that exact moment, Rex's subordinate appeared. He was coming to report to Rex his investigation findings.

Rex came downstairs and inquired of his subordinate, "What did you find out?"

He was dying to know what had happened. He wanted to know what had caused his son so much depression and frustration. Black had even lost his appetite which bothered Rex greatly.

"Boss, Mr. Hu saw Holley last night. However…" Rex's subordinate dared not continue. He was afraid what he was going to say next would piss Rex off.
