The Apple of My Eye
Chapter 1056 Not Good

"Just who the hell are you?" the woman on the other end asked Holley cautiously. "How on earth are you aware of the matter between Autumn and me?"

"Well, because..." Holley cleared her throat and continued with a sneer, "I have the same purpose as you. You should come here. Perhaps we can support one another and work together to deal with Autumn." Hearing what Holley had said, the woman kept silent for a while. Holley smirked and added to her request, "Please, don't worry. Both of us have suffered tremendously because of Autumn. I think it's best we become allies. I promise not to harm you in any way. On the contrary, we could even become good friends."

"Really? Do you mean what you just said?" the woman asked with uncertainty and indignation.

Following the woman's question, a cunning smile appeared on Holley's face. She was certain that the woman had been convinced by her idea.

"Well, of course. I'm sure it will work." Holley sneered. "We must take it easy now. Autumn will definitely be defeated if we work together."

The woman hesitated for a while and stammered, "Is she still... Is she still with Charles?"

"Yes." Holley responded with a cold smile. "That bitch seems to have endless luck. She had lost her memory and gone missing three years ago. To be honest, I thought she would never come back. However, I was totally wrong. In fact, she didn't even come back alone...She has two kids with Charles. Now Charles treats and cares for her with all his heart. Just the mere thought of it, really makes me sick. Even I feel envious of her."

Holley smirked and continued, "If she hadn't come between you and Carlos, you would've been Mrs. Lu... Not her."

Fueling with rage, the woman grasped her fist out of pure anger as she heard Holley's words.

In her mind, she acknowledged just how much she hated Autumn. If it wasn't for her, Charles would've asked for her hand and she would now be called Mrs. Lu. Thinking about what a difficult time she had over the years and how Autumn had enjoyed the life she was supposed to have, infuriated her even more. She felt like it was extremely unfair.

If Holley hadn't called her, she wouldn't have remembered the painful memories of the past few years, nor feel as angry as she did in the current moment.

Holley started something with her words and aroused the hatred she felt in her heart for Autumn.

That was unfair of her. 'How can she be so happy? If it wasn't for Autumn, I wouldn't have suffered so much! Everything is so unfair!' the woman silently complained to herself.

Regardless of what happened in the last few years, there was finally a chance for her to rectify the past. She realized that she could return and take revenge on Autumn. However, to do that, she had to accept Holley's invitation. By doing that, she could possibly also be reunited with Charles again.

Three years had passed since she left. It was time for her to go back and face reality.

"Will you care to help me when I return?" the woman asked skeptically.

Holley gave a cold smile and answered reassuringly, "Of course. I promise."

Holley didn't really care about the woman, but she would agree to anything if the woman was willing to help her cause trouble for Sheryl.

"Okay... Well, I don't think I have any reason to decline your request. I just need you to wait for a couple of days because I have to deal with matters here. I will book a plane ticket as soon as possible and inform you about my flight."

"That's perfect. I think we will work well together and achieve what we want in no time." Holley burst out into a peal of evil laughter.

"Yes, I hope so."

A devious smile remained on Holley's face as she hung up the phone.

'Sheryl, I won't appreciate you for saving me last night. On the contrary, I hate you even more. I've suffered all the hardships in the last three years, and that's all because of you! I will never forgive you! One day I will let you taste the pain and bitterness that I have suffered too!' Holley promised to herself. She was convinced that she would make it one day.

She thought about her plan and realized that it was genius. Sheryl had no idea what Holley was plotting, as she didn't have the time, all thanks to George's wedding.

Time flew. It was the eve of George's wedding, and Sheryl was free.

Looking at the perfect wedding space she'd decorated, Sheryl smiled with satisfaction.

"Thank you, everybody, for your hard work. You must all be very tired. You may go home and rest. Tomorrow we all have to be on time to get everything ready. Rest well and don't be late," Sheryl said to her colleagues with a satisfying smile.

"Sher, you have spent more energy than anyone else on this wedding." The speaker was a new employee, Joanne Zhang. "You arrived here much earlier than everyone else and you really spent a lot of time perfecting the venue of the wedding. You must be exhausted."

Sheryl smiled and said, "I'm happily willing to put in the extra hours for the sake of our company.

Just go home to rest now everyone. I will invite all of you to have a big meal once the wedding is over."

"Thank you, Sher."

After all the employees left, Sheryl went over everything that they'd prepared for tomorrow's wedding once more. Once she made sure that everything was ready, she decided to leave.

However, her first thought was not to go home, but to rather call Anthony to ask him about Sue's condition as she hadn't seen Sue for several days.

"Sher." The call from Sheryl's phone connected to Anthony's. He continued to say, "What a surprise to receive a call from you!"

"Hi Anthony. I have been very busy recently and had no time to visit Sue yet. How is she? Has she been discharged from the hospital yet?" Sheryl asked with great concern.

"Yes, she is better. She already left the hospital a few days ago." Anthony let out a sigh of relief. "Actually, Sher, I also wanted to call you to tell you about her condition. She hasn't been happy since she came back from the hospital. That's why I need your help...I want you to persuade her and motivate her to be happy again."

"Is she still bothered by that matter?" Sheryl asked with a growing frown on her face.

"Yes," Anthony sighed. "You know Sue values her family very much and she is pregnant now... So, she is very emotional. She hasn't even been listening to what I've been saying at all."

A bitter smile crossed Anthony's face as he continued, "Sher, you are her best friend. Please persuade her. I would really appreciate your help to make her feel better."

"Okay, I'll be at your house soon," Sheryl replied with a worried tone. She cared about Sue and missed her dearly. She didn't want her to be unhappy.

Normally, Sue would've been given more time to get rid of the show of that matter by herself, but she was pregnant now, so Sheryl decided to help her move on as soon as possible.

Even though she was exhausted from working all day, she drove over to the Xiao family's house and met up with Sue and Laura, who had just come back from the vegetable market. Since the moment Allen and Peggy had been caught by the police, there was nothing stopping Sue from going out with Laura.

Staying indoors all day, Sue must be thinking far too much about what happened before.

"What brought you here, Sher?" Sue was amazed to see Sheryl, who found Sue's belly to be much bigger than the last time she saw her.

"Well, of course, I came to visit you."

Sheryl smiled and walked with Sue upstairs after greeting Laura.

"How have you been, Sue? Do you feel better?" she asked.

Sue smiled and responded to Sheryl, "Just the same as before. It is not good, but not bad either. So, in that case, I guess I'm fine."
