"What is she doing here?" Holley seethed as she stepped out of the shadows to confront Sheryl. 'She ruined us. How dare she come here?' she screamed with hatred in her heart.
Ferry grabbed her hand and pulled her into their hiding place again.
"What are you trying to do?" He frowned at her.
"I am going to ask her to get the hell out of here. She is a shameless bitch. Mom wouldn't want her here," Holley replied emotionally. Narrowing his eyes at the seething woman, Ferry snorted, "Three years! I thought you would be smarter by now. Looks like you are as stupid as ever."
Holley ground her teeth at his mockery and asked in a displeased tone, "What do you mean?"
"What's in it for you if you went out there and drove her away from the grave?" Ferry asked, with a sneer.
"I..." Holley stammered. 'What would I get if I asked her to go away now?' she mused.
"All you would do is expose yourself to your enemy," Ferry continued, giving a contemptuous laugh. "Well, if that's what you want, I will not stop you. You can go tell Sheryl that you are Yvonne Gu. But if you don't want that, you'd better stay here quietly."
His words helped Holley regain her composure. 'He is right. I can't let Sheryl discover my real identity yet.
Perhaps Sheryl has started to suspect me, but I don't think she have any proof. If I appear in front of her now, she'll know for sure who I am.
I can't do that, ' she decided.
Ferry had followed Sheryl to the cemetery. After being discovered by her once before, he had learned to carefully stay at a distance from her. When Sheryl was parking her car outside the cemetery, he hastily took a shortcut to Wendy's grave because he was afraid that she might run into Holley there. And just as he had suspected, Holley was right in front of the grave. He had made it in time to remove her from the spot.
He didn't think it was the right time for Sheryl to know that Holley was her sister.
'Yvonne is now Holley, BM Corporation CEO's pretty girlfriend. Her new identity could help me deal with Sheryl, ' he meditated.
The moment she reached Wendy's graveyard, Sheryl's eyes were caught by the bunch of fresh flowers at the gravestone. She knew that Yvonne must have been there.
Although Sheryl didn't see her, she was certain that Holley was her half sister—Yvonne Gu.
'No wonder she tried to give me a hard time, ' she thought.
Sheryl looked at Wendy's picture on her grave. With a sincere smile, she said, "Mom, I'm here.
I know that Yvonne is back. To be completely honest, she is not a bad person. But after living with you for so many years, she has picked up some nasty habits from you. She is like a child. She wants to get her hands on everything she likes and destroy all that she dislikes." Sheryl let out a sardonic laugh and said, "But you know what? When I found that she had escaped from prison, I was really happy. She is my sister after all. I hated that she had to suffer in prison and I was glad for her because I thought that she could now lead a new life."
A sad expression settled on her face as she continued, "She had a plastic surgery and she is so beautiful now. Her appearance has changed completely. She has a boyfriend who treats her like a princess and I also heard that they are getting married. She has a good life. I don't understand why she chose to come back."
