The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 885

When Anthony knocked on the door, Sue didn't waste any time and opened it hastily.

"Tell me what happened. Why did my mom come here?" Anthony asked with a frown as soon as he saw Sue.

"I don't know either. Please take your mom back home shortly. If she stays here, things will go wrong sooner or later." With an agitated look on her face, Sue shook her head slightly and smiled bitterly.

As Anthony was walking inside to talk to Laura, he was swiftly dragged by Sue. She spoke to him in a serious tone, "Anthony, remember what I have told you. No matter what happens, you have to claim that we are not romantically involved with each other. This is the best thing you can do. So, please! Please help me."

"Is that what you really want me to say?" Anthony asked her deliberately.

Sue suddenly felt dumbfounded in front of his dark eyes as he stared at her quietly and intently. But behind his eyes was an eagerness to tell her something. She felt like she would sink into them. Able to quickly regain her composure, she took a deep breath and replied, "Yes, that's exactly what I want you to say."

Anthony coldly pulled his hand away from her. He then looked away and said, "I'll do what I think is right."

Anthony approached his mother, Laura, and asked her, "Mom, why did you come here? Why didn't you tell me about it before?"

"Humph! Why son? Would you allow me to come here if I told you?" Laura replied sharply.

Anthony grinned. He then tried to persuade her, "Since you have already visited here, can we leave now?"

Anthony tried his very best to convince Laura. "Mom, don't worry about it. I'll handle the things between Sue and me properly. You will be satisfied with the conclusion I'll make. I promise!"

"No!" As Anthony tried to pull her out, Laura threw off his hands. Wearing an upset face, she asked coldly, "Haven't you solved it yet? Are you going to push me out? Now, I'm telling you. If you don't give me an answer today, I won't leave!"

"Mom..." Anthony grimaced. "Why? What is the answer you want? Just tell me and I'll give it to you right now!"

"Don't ever think of fooling me!" Laura could not contain her madness as she intensely glared at Anthony. "Since we are both here today, you and Sue should tell us how you are going to solve it! You need to tell us clearly your plan in the future. Are you going to get married or not? It's a simple yes or no answer! What's so difficult with that? You have to give us an answer!"

"Mom..." Anthony pleaded. He was also annoyed by her aggressive questions. That was why he complained to her impatiently, "Didn't you promise that I could make my own decisions? Why do you interfere and force me now?"

"Huh?! Make your own decisions? If I let you do that every time, you will still be with that woman now!" Laura sneered. She then threatened Anthony, "Anyway, if you don't settle your relationship with Sue right now, I won't leave!"

Laura's stubborn attitude made both Anthony and Sue irritated. They felt helpless, especially that they did not know how to change her mind.

"What happened?" Peggy rushed out from the kitchen when she heard the quarrel outside. She saw the three of them grumpily standing there so she came towards Sue and yelled angrily, "Was it you? What did you do that displeased Anthony and your mother-in-law?"

"No! No! Don't be mistaken!" Laura replied with a smile. "I was just lecturing my son. He wanted me to leave once he arrived here."

"What?" Peggy turned to Anthony and asked in a surprised tone, "How can you do this? We'll be a family sooner or later. Isn't it great for us to have a meal together?"

Peggy was very hospitable. She continued to convince Anthony, "Stay here for lunch. If you have something to discuss, let's talk about it while enjoying our food."
