The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 998

Of course, Donna would go. Moreover, she was going to expose Holley's true colors.

"Great! Holley and I will be waiting for you." George hung up on a happy note and hurried to share the exciting news with Holley.

When Donna was back home that evening, she saw Sula packing her things. She panicked at the sight. She creased her eyebrows and rushed towards Sula, who hadn't noticed her presence yet. She grabbed Sula's hands tightly to stop her and asked, "Sula, what are you doing? Didn't you promise me that you would wait? Why are you...?"

"Aunt Donna, you are hurting me!" Sula said, gritting her teeth as she tried to shake off Donna's hands.

Donna let go of her immediately. She apologized, "Sula, I'm so sorry. I panicked when I saw you packing."

"It's fine," Sula replied briefly. She rubbed the back of her hand which was still hurting because of Donna's grasp. "Aunt Donna, the situation has become too awkward for George and me now. It's meaningless for me to stay here. I know that you want me to wait longer for the winds to change, but Aunt Donna, I can't do this anymore. Besides, my parents called. Apparently, they have arranged a blind date for me. I'm ready to go home after tonight's dinner."

Sula smiled bitterly and continued, "Aunt Donna, you can rest assured that I won't tell my parents about what has happened here. I should... I should stop this useless daydreaming and accept the reality."

George didn't like her and it was time for her to face that truth.

Donna shook her head. "Sula, listen to me..." She was anxious to tell her everything she had heard from Sheryl. However, she was interrupted by Sula's impatient voice.

"Aunt Donna, please save your efforts to persuade me. I have figured out where I stand in George's life. And I now know that I have no place in his heart." Sula sighed, "I have already booked my air ticket. I must leave tonight."

"Sula, just hear me out." Donna held her hand gently this time. "Hear what I have to say and after that if you still want to leave, I won't stop you. Okay?"

Sula hesitated. She was tired of her endless encouragement, but she had no choice. Finally she agreed to listen to her.

Donna breathed a sigh of relief. "Today I... I met with Sheryl."

Sula looked at Donna in surprise. But she remained silent.

Donna was glad that she had managed to grab Sula's attention. She then went on to tell Sula everything that Sheryl had told her. Sula was indifferent at first, but as Donna explained everything, the expression on her face gradually changed. Her mouth was wide open in shock. Her reaction reminded Donna of herself when she had received the news from Sheryl.

Sula was rendered speechless. She listened without saying a single word, but occasionally gasped in shock as Donna continued to tell her all the secrets. Donna's face was covered in rage as she said, "Sula, I have never liked Holley so far because of my personal preferences. But now that I know the secrets she has been hiding, I will never let that vicious woman be a part of my family!"

She squeezed Sula's hands and pleaded, "Sula, please stay. Help me drive that woman out of my home."

"Aunt Donna..." Sula finally came out of the shock, but she still could not believe it. She muttered, "Are you telling me the truth? Is this for real?"
