The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 938

"I did not mean that at all..." When Holley realized her attitude was inappropriate, she explained to George in a hurry, "I just think it's quite a surprise. After all, your family has a quite large business in Korea. Now, both you and Auntie are staying in Y City. Who's going to take care of your business in Korea?"

"You don't need to worry about that." George's tone was indifferent. "There's an occupation called professional manager. He will deal with our business in Korea."

"Oh, I see…" Starting to get lost in her thoughts, Holley simply nodded slightly and turned to look out the window, thinking what would Donna try to do this time.

"Don't worry." George held Holley's hands and said sincerely, "No matter what happens, I will always be there for you."

"I know." Although she had to squeeze it out, Holley still smiled at George's affectionate words.

The car was parked beside Donna's house. Holley took a glance at the villa and thought, 'She even bought a villa much bigger than the one George and I live in.'

Holley sneered and believed that Donna wasn't going to leave Y City anymore.

"Let's get going." George unloaded everything in the trunk and said, "My mom should be waiting inside."

"Alright," she nodded. Albeit hesitantly, she followed George inside.

What really surprised her was that Sula was still staying in Y City for such a long time. When they entered the room, Sula was helping Donna with dinner. Seeing George, she hurriedly greeted him. "George, you're here!"

Sparing only a slight glance at Holley, she greeted indifferently, "Miss Ye."

"It's been a long time since we last met, Miss Piao," Holley returned.

"Yes, it has." An unreadable smile found its way to Sula's face. She looked at Holley and said, "It really has been a long time. I wonder how Miss Ye has been doing these days?"

"Me?" With a calm smile, she simply replied, "I'm alright."

As he put down the gifts he was carrying, George picked up one of the beautifully wrapped presents. "Sula, I heard you like this necklace. I mentioned it to Holley and she bought it during her business trip. Why don't you open it and check if it's the one you like?" he said, handing it to Sula.

His words made Sula freeze for a moment. She opened it hurriedly and said with a smile, "Yes, it is. George, I didn't expect you to take what I said seriously…"

The smile she wore lit up Sula's face. "I really appreciate that. Thank you."

"It's Holley you should thank." George smiled as he suggested.

"Thank you, Miss Ye." With a rather forced smile, Sula thanked Holley.

The latter barely squeezed out a smile. In fact, she didn't even know about the gift George prepared.

The company chatted amongst themselves while Donna prepared the dishes and brought them out. At that point, her attitude towards Holley changed completely. Greeting Holley with enthusiasm, she said, "Miss Ye, you're here. Sula, come and have a chat with her. George, please help me with something."

With a nod, he followed Donna into the kitchen, leaving Holley and Sula alone in the living room.

The two had parted on bad terms the last time they met. This time, it was as if nothing had happened to Sula. She held Holley's hand with such care, making Holley at a loss for what to do.
