The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 662

"Of course I will support you," Holley replied and gave Sue a determined look. "I know exactly how you feel, so I'll stick up for you." She walked over to Sue and patted her hand reassuringly.

Sue was overjoyed at her words, and felt her confidence rise. Then, it occurred to her that Holley and Sheryl had always seemed close. "But Miss Ye, why are you willing to help me?" she asked suspiciously.

"If I remember correctly, you have a good relationship with Sheryl," Sue said. "I don't understand why you..."

Sue was not a fool, and she had already found Holley a little strange.

"That's easy. I can explain," Holley answered with a smile. "I would like to see the lovers unite. Sheryl obviously has fallen in love with Charles. I can help her as well as you. I want her to acknowledge her feelings for Charles. This way, you can also get together with Anthony. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?" she explained. It all sounded so reasonable.

"Well, you mustn't think too much now. Love will take its course. Take your time. If Anthony's heart has been broken by Sheryl, console him. Even if you just be by his side and not do anything else, eventually, in time, he will see you in a different light. He will soon realize that you are a beautiful and caring woman," Holley patiently advised Sue.

"Is that all I need to do?" Although Holley's words made sense, Sue was still worried.

"The most important thing is..." Holley paused for a second before continuing with a serious look,"Don't let this affect your work. If all this crap is going to affect you on the catwalk again, I'm not going to come to your rescue any more."

Awkwardly, Sue looked at Holley. She assured her,"You may rest assured that this will never happen again, Miss Ye. I will work harder. I promise you."

Holley's face cleared and she smiled at Sue. Just as she was about to tell Sue something more, her phone rang. It was George. She quickly snatched up the phone and said to Sue,"Sorry, give me a minute. I have to take this call."

"Fine, no problem." Sue nodded understandingly.

Holley then answered the phone,"Hi, George, what's up?"

They both worked in the same company and as such did not really need to communicate by phone with each other. George had gone to another city for a meeting this morning. It had been only three hours since he left. Holley was happy to think that he had called her because he was already missing her.

Therefore, she couldn't stop smiling when she answered the phone.

"Holley, do you remember that my mom called and informed that she is coming over today? She has already boarded the plane, and is supposed to reach in two hours. I am in a meeting and I really can't get back in time. Will you pick her up at the airport?" George's voice came anxiously over the phone.

Holley frowned slightly. She reluctantly questioned,"Didn't you say we would go together to pick up your mom?"

"Yes, I did." George said patiently,"But there's nothing I can do about it now. You know, I'm not in Y City now. I will not get back in time, so I have to ask you to pick my mom up on your own."

George tried to reason with Holley and get her to agree to his request. "Holley, I know my mom is picky and hard on you, but she's my mom. If you don't pick her up this time, she will think even worse of you. Don't you agree? So please meet her at the airport on time and arrange her stay at the hotel we once stayed at. Also, don't forget to take her out to dinner. I'll be back as soon as I can."

In the end George said,"Honey, thank you. I know I owe you one. I'll make it up to you."

"But I don't..." Before Holley could refuse, George had hung up the phone. Looking at the phone with a bemused expression, she gave a wry smile.
