The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1758

Rex's voice came thundering into Holley's ears through the phone. Holley got so scared to hear his voice that she forgot what to say.

After a while, when Holley recovered from Rex's intimidating voice, she understood Rex's love and concern towards Black as a father. But how could he threaten Holley after his son had been taken away by somebody? How could he say that he would teach Holley a lesson? Wasn't he supposed to find his son as soon as possible?

Holley was surprised. Rex's reaction was beyond her expectation. She was unable to gauge what exactly could have gone wrong.

All of a sudden, she realized that the people who had taken Black away were sent by Rex. Holley heaved a sigh, and her chest felt a lot lighter as soon as she figured it out.

On the other end of the phone, Rex continued to hurl rebukes at Holley. He didn't have a single nice word to say to her.

"Holley Ye, I am warning you for the last time. If you show up again, don't blame me for neglecting Black's dignity." After hurling as many heartless remarks and threats at Holley as possible, Rex hung up the phone.

Holley was certainly clear about the fact that she couldn't expect any respect from Rex. However, being assured about Black's safety relieved her so much that even after she had been so brutally insulted by Rex, her lips curved into a mild smile.

But the smile faded too soon and was replaced by a gloomy face all over again. After Rex ended the call, Holley put her cell phone aside. A frown appeared on her face as soon as she thought of Ferry. What if he found out Jason was gone? She would be in trouble.

What if Ferry held Holley responsible for Jason's leaving right before the marriage? He would never pardon her for that.

At the moment, Holley didn't have much choice other than to pray that Ferry didn't send his men to follow her. Then he would never get to know what happened between her and Black.

After much consideration, Holley finally decided to call Ferry. Anyway, she had to make a bet. Otherwise, Ferry would not spare her life.

With bated breath, she waited for Ferry to answer her call. At every sound of the dialing tone, she was tempted to end the call to save herself from confronting Ferry, but she held on. Ferry answered the phone after a long while.

He was surprised to see Holley's name flashing on his phone screen. He checked the time and assumed that Rex's plan must have been completed. Why would Holley call him at this time?

Thinking about it, Ferry answered the call.

"Jason is missing. I don't know where he has gone," Holley blurted even before Ferry could speak. She didn't want to give him a chance to slander her.

Ferry flared up in anger as soon as Holley's words reached his ears. Even he had never expected that Holley's call would make him so angry.

"Pardon?" Ferry asked Holley in a very harsh and unforgiving voice.

Holley had known that Ferry would get furious.

That one word uttered by Ferry sent a chill down her spine. With cold sweat tricking down her back, she suddenly felt nervous and tired.

With her knees trembling and her heart throbbing heavily against her chest, Holley was waiting for Ferry's instructions. However, to her utter surprise, Ferry remained silent. If the phone didn't show the line to be connected, she might have thought that he had hung up.

"What should I do now?" Holley tried her best to hold back for a while, but couldn't help asking cautiously.

"Holley, was it you who caused it?" Ferry asked sarcastically.
