The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 666

"George, I think Holley has completely bewitched you." Donna sneered and continued,"So tell me then who thinks ill of you!"

"Mom..." George paused and said,"Holley, I suppose, will be here in some time. Why not wait for a few minutes more?"

"No more waiting! Holley should learn to treat me with the courtesy due to an elderly woman and her future mother-in-law." Donna replied with a hint of sarcasm,"George, my willingness to get along with Holley has been wasted by her inappropriate behavior. It would be advisable for you to reflect on this and part ways with her."

"Mom, please show some understanding and tolerance." George tried his best to defend Holley.

Donna got extremely agitated and sneered,"Now I have to leave without you. I consider it my misfortune to have to deal with such a woman."

"Aunt Donna, keep calm and do not get so annoyed." Sula offered a cup of tea to Donna and tried to soothe Donna's temper.

"Only George's break-up with Holley would satisfy me!" Donna declared, grinding her teeth.

George, seeing Donna seething with anger, immediately tried to comfort her by saying,"Mom, please regain your composure. I will call Holley right now to tell her not to come over. And I will go to see the movie with you and Sula this evening to make up for Holley's misconduct."

"That would be very generous of you," Donna gladly accepted George's offer and was pacified a little.

Sensing that Donna was in a better mood, George immediately tried to put in some good words about Holley. "I hope you can spare some good thoughts for Holley also."

"I may think about it on the condition that you please me and listen to me." Donna gave her verbal consent while trying her best to make George fall in love with Sula.

Later, on the pretext of settling the bill, George moved away and called Holley. His call went unanswered. This angered him immensely.

'How could Holley disregard and disrespect my mother like this? It is time that I rethink my relationship with her, ' George thought to himself.

Donna, after all, was his mother whose needs had to be prioritized and looked into.

Just as George was about to hang up, a crude voice answered,"Who is it?"

"Who is it? That is exactly my question to you also!" George became anxious to learn who was answering Holley's phone for her.

"Were you trying to contact the girl?" the crude voice asked. It was his bad luck to have rammed into Holley and now he had to pay all the medical fees. "She has been admitted in a hospital and is undergoing a check up here. Are you her relative?"

"Hospital? Which hospital and what has happened to her? Is she hurt?" George was overcome with growing anxiety and demanded to know all the details.

"She is in the emergency room of Y City Hospital, and she..." The brawny man barely finished saying before George cut the call.

George immediately settled the bill and rushed to the lounge to tell Donna of Holley's car accident. He knew he had to reach the hospital immediately.
