The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1885

When Holley heard him say that again, she was stunned.

Ferry grew agitated when Holley didn't respond. Frowning, he spat, "Holley, this will be your last chance. You better speak up right now!"

"Well, nothing's been going on lately with Leila..."

"So what?" Upon the mention of Leila's name, Ferry's interest was piqued.

'I think Holley doesn't know that I contacted Leila, and I can make use of this.

They might end up fighting one another. This is going to be fun, ' Ferry thought to himself, an evil smile forming on his face.

"Can you help me with the Hu family first? Then I'll do my best to help you with Leila," Holley requested after much hesitation.

She couldn't rely on anyone else now but Ferry. Even though she knew that Ferry despised her, she had no choice but to ask him for help as she didn't have anyone else.

"Ha-ha, Holley, I thought you said that Leila was on your side? She lied to you then?" Ferry jeered.

He just saw Holley as someone to be played with, as a source of entertainment.

"What...What do you mean?" Holley blurted out. She was in a daze. She wasn't sure what Ferry was trying to say.

Ferry bellowed with laughter, after which, he said, "Holley, you're a total failure."

Before Holley could say anything else, he'd already hung up the phone.

Holley didn't know what Ferry was talking about. She'd figured it was probably something she needed to know, so she called a private detective for help.

After anxiously waiting for half a day, she finally got the information she needed—Leila had been in touch with Ferry. 'That was why he said that, ' she thought.

When Holley received this news, she angrily threw her phone to the floor. After she calmed down, she picked it up again and dialed Leila's number.

Leila had been in a good mood these past few days. When she saw that Holley was calling her, she ignored her.

Holley called a few more times, but Leila still didn't answer.

"Wow, Leila has really been talking to Ferry." Holley didn't even consider the possibility that Leila could just be making a fool out of her. 'I can't believe I let myself be fooled by her, ' she thought to herself.

She was at a loss as to what to do, now that Leila and Ferry were talking. She panicked as she thought of this.

She was of no use to either Leila or Ferry now.

"Ms. Ye..." The secretary rushed into Holley's office without knocking at her door first.

Annoyed, Holley said, "Where are your manners?"

"Ms. Ye, Mr. Hu is here." The secretary knew that Holley had been waiting for Black, so when she saw him in the lobby, she barged into her office right away.

"My father was initially against it, but eventually he gave in. After all, you're carrying my baby. He has no choice." Holding her hand, Black went up the stairs.

Everyone at the Tarsan Corporation hadn't seen Black in a while, so when they saw him again, they were startled.

Holley coughed lightly and said aloud, "Don't you all have work to do?"

The employees quickly diverted their gaze away and started to fumble as they went back to work.

"Holley, you shouldn't be so stressed and angry all the time. Think of your health. Just calm down," Black reprimanded. He gently stroked her back to comfort her.

"They are so annoying!" After darting a cold glance at the employees, Holley followed Black into the office.

She'd been so worried about Black. Just when she didn't know what to do, he suddenly appeared.

She couldn't contain her excitement anymore. The minute she saw Black, her mood changed, and she became much more spirited.

They shut the door and sat on the couch side by side. Tugging at Black's arm, Holley said sweetly, "Black, look at my stomach. I'm showing. Did you miss me and our baby?"

Holley knew she needed to make Black feel guilty. The more guilty Black felt, the more power she had. She couldn't rely on Ferry now, so she only had Black now. She was lucky that Ferry wasn't going to kill her. So Black was her last ray of hope.

"Holley, I've been missing you so much. I rushed here the moment my father agreed. I promise not to leave you ever again. Wherever you go, I'll be with you. I swear!" Black said firmly as he sincerely gazed at Holley.
