The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 859

Sue was seething. She couldn't believe the expectation that she felt in her heart when Peggy asked Anthony how he felt about her. She laughed at herself how foolish she was to have such a ridiculous assumption.

Sue knew very well that it was impossible for Anthony to be with her. However, when Peggy asked the question, Sue's heart beat fast, and she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

Peggy frowned slightly. She couldn't tell why Anthony answered her that way. She thought he had a thing for Sue and would give her a positive answer.

Anthony didn't know why he said that. He thought, probably because he didn't want Sue to hold certain expectations before he made his decision.

Anthony smiled and said to Peggy, "Aunt Peggy, please rest assured. I will always be her friend. No matter what happens to Sue, I will be there to help her."

Peggy first looked at Anthony and then at Sue feeling even more confused.

Peggy didn't believe that Anthony and Sue could not be together, so she asked Anthony in front of her, "Is it... really that impossible?"

"Aunt Peggy," Anthony smiled and continued, "as I said, nobody knows what will happen in the future, but... at least for now, it's not possible."

After listening to their conversation, Sue felt very disappointed inside. She then looked at Peggy and said, "Did you hear that? You flatter yourself too much."

Sue glanced at Anthony who was in front of her and said, "I'm busy, I have to go now. Would you like to leave now?"

"Yeah, sure, I'll come with you," Anthony said in a hurry. The reason why he came today was to help Sue but he found that he didn't play a very positive role.

Anthony looked at Peggy beside him and said, "Aunt Peggy, I'm leaving now. I'll see you next time."

"All right," Peggy said nodding awkwardly and escorted him out.

After saying goodbye, Anthony quickly caught up with Sue and said, "You're walking so fast. Wait up."

Sue didn't say a word to Anthony. When the elevator door opened, she walked in alone and Anthony followed.

In the elevator, Anthony looked at Sue beside him and said, "Sue, what I said just now..."

"I know." Sue smiled bitterly and continued, "Thank you for letting me know how you feel. You can rest assured that I will never bother you again."

"No, you don't understand," Anthony said in a hurry. "Please let me explain. Actually, I don't know how I feel in my heart, so I just said that because..."

Sue interrupted him, "Anthony, please stop! I hope that's the end. I wish I never met you. I'm really tired of it. Please don't bother me any more."

"Bother you?" Anthony asked stunned. "Do you think I'm bothering you?"

"Don't you?" Sue stared at Anthony and said, "I was working, but my family called me to come back because of you and now I have to go back to the company and finish my work. Does that qualify as being bothered by you?"

"You..." With a wry smile, Anthony said, "It seems that I'm really humiliating myself. I shouldn't have gone to your house. I shouldn't have had the idea of trying to help you."
