The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 980

"You will know once it happens," Sheryl said to Holley without any emotions in her voice.

After completing her words, she turned around and left immediately. Holley stared angrily at her direction like she wanted Sheryl dead right now.

'Why can she get whatever she wants so easily? No matter how hard I try, I am always the loser against her!' Holley's evil thoughts echoed in her head.

'It would be Wendy's death anniversary in a few days. I once swore before her tombstone that I would make Sheryl pay for what she did before that day. However, it seems to be unlikely to happen now.' Holley seemed to be spacing out as she remained looking at Sheryl.

Then she thought, 'No, I can't give up so easily!'

She was still in the middle of her thoughts when something caught her attention from the crowd of that auction party. It was Donna and Sula together.

George started walking to the two at once to welcome them. He was a little surprised to see the two women at such an event. "Mother, I didn't expect you to come here."

"We arrived a little while ago," Donna laughed and said to George.

Then she glanced at Holley shortly before looking away. She was acting as if she didn't even notice Holley standing next to her son. She just witnessed the quarrel between Holley and Sheryl and found it was interesting.

Although Donna didn't know what was wrong between Holley and Sheryl, she was sure that they knew each other before and didn't get along very well. 'Maybe Sheryl can be one of my allies to get this bitch away from my son.'

On the other hand, it was obvious that Holley wasn't pleased to see Donna either. However, she could not do much when they were surrounded by many people. She was left with no choice but to walk towards the aged woman and greet her with respect.

As expected, Donna did not respond to her at all. Seeing this made George confused. Thus, he said to Donna, "Mother, when did you..."

'When did she know Cary? What is she doing in this auction?' he thought to himself.

Watching how confused George was, Donna laughed and said, "Have you forgotten that BM Corporation is also doing business with Cary's company? Besides, he's your classmate in college. That's actually why he sent me an invitation upon finding out that I'm in the city. What's so surprising about that?"

Holley couldn't bear to stay here and talk with Donna for one more second. Thus, she grabbed George's arm and said, "George, let's go and greet the other guests."

"Mother, I..." George hesitated. It would be a little embarrassing to leave his mother here. It was really difficult for him to choose between the woman who gave birth to him and the woman he loved. However, he chose to go with Holley in the end.

"Go ahead, my son," said Donna. Donna smiled like she didn't care about it at all. Then she acted as forgiving as she could and said to George, "Don't worry about me. Sula is here with me."

George nodded upon hearing her and walked away with Holley.

Nevertheless, Sula, who was standing just next to Donna, wasn't as kind as Donna. She glared at the couple angrily with jealousy in her eyes.

"It doesn't matter," Donna comforted her and gently took her hands. "Don't worry. Sooner or later, George will be with you and not with that bitch. But now, you need to wait patiently."

"But..." Sula groaned and stopped whining. She managed a smile and looked at Donna. However, she looked very sad that her smile didn't even reflect in her eyes. She then continued, "Aunt Donna, he loves Holley and I know that. There's no chance for me to even be noticed by him."

"No, that's not true," responded Donna as she looked at Holley again. 'Holley has seduced my son with her little tricks. I don't care about that anyway! That won't last for so long. Sooner or later, I will let him know how shameless and evil that bitch is!' she thought to herself.
