The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 965

"Frivolous?" Sheryl couldn't help but burst into laughter. After a while, she stopped laughing. Fixing her eyes on Susan, she said earnestly, "You know what? Cary is popular among girls, but he never flirts with them. It's the first time that I have seen him treat a girl in such a casual manner. Perhaps, he thinks you're special."

"What nonsense are you talking about, Sher?" Susan responded, a suspicious blush flashing across her face. "We are never going to work it out."

With a smile, Sheryl commented in a sisterly tone, "Nothing is impossible. When Charles and I first got married, I thought I would never fall in love with him. But it turns out that I was wrong."

Sheryl intentionally shared her experience to make Susan believe that everything was possible. "Actually, Cary is not as bad as you think he is. As far as I know, he is completely different from what you have imagined. I think this is all just a misunderstanding. It wouldn't be fair to him at all."

As Susan didn't retort, she held her hand and suggested, "Why not make peace with him and regard him as your friend? Perhaps if you get to know him better, you will see that he is a far better person than what you thought."

"But..." Susan faltered with a scowl. Cary sure didn't leave a good impression on her, but she couldn't refuse Sheryl's proposal.

"That's it," Sheryl concluded when she noticed that the girl was wavering. Holding on to Susan's hand, she gave a bright smile and reassured her, "I will be there. You can keep me company. What do you think?"

"Fine," Susan nodded. "But I need to make it clear that I will never date with him. I only agreed to go there because you asked me to."

"Well, I know. You are the best." Sheryl smiled back at her.

As she managed to persuade Susan to go to the party, she thought of Holley's recent visit to her. "By the way, what did Holley say when she came here?" Sheryl asked.

"Nothing important," Susan answered. "She didn't stay here for long. She brought many presents though, and spoke mostly to my parents. I avoided her."

"Didn't you get to talk to her?" Sheryl queried, squinting at her. 'It was impossible for Holley to have come here without speaking with Susan, ' she thought.

Susan took a glance at Sheryl before she answered, "Before she left, she went to my room and talked to me for a while. She said that she thought highly of me and asked me not to be fooled by others to leave the company. She also mentioned that she wanted to develop my skills as she did to you, and that she would arrange a promotion for me after I came back to the company."

'Holley is so good at bribing people. Does she still think that she could do anything she wants just because she is rich?' Sheryl thought in disdain.

"Well, there is one more thing, Sher," she added. "She even insinuated to ask me if I saw who hit me."

"And what did you say?" she asked eagerly. 'I knew it. Holley couldn't have come to Susan without a reason. It turned out that she wanted to know if she saw her face after she hit her, ' Sheryl noted to herself.
