The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 618

"I'm sorry Mr. Han," Charles apologized in a cold tone. "I was really busy recently, and wasn't able to attend the show. But I saw it on TV and I could say that it was a big success. Congratulations!" he added.

"Thank you for your support, Mr. Lu. By the way, I heard that your company will be releasing your new product soon. I couldn't help but doubt your purpose of coming here in such a crucial moment." George answered Charles with condescending sneer.

But Charles didn't mind it. Instead, he smiled and explained,"Take it easy. I didn't come here for you. I'll leave immediately as soon as I see the person I came here for."

"You came here for someone else?" George asked in surprise. Holley was the one who answered,"George, didn't you know? Mr. Lu is Sheryl's friend. Actually, Mr. Lu also sent some flowers to Sheryl this morning." Holley tried not to show any hint of contempt in her voice.

"Oh, really?" George seemed to be more surprised. He cast a glance at Charles and said,"I have never known that Mr. Lu is Sheryl's friend. But..." George paused for a while before he continued,"As far as I could remember, Sheryl already has a boyfriend. But her boyfriend is not Mr. Lu."

While George was talking, Charles got a chance to stare at Holley. He had a feeling that this woman was familiar to him. However, he couldn't recall where and when they met. He just shrugged it off and decided to end the conversation. "I believe Mr. Han must have been very busy right now. You can just leave now. I can manage myself. I just have something to talk to Sheryl."

Mr. Lu..." George was a little hesitant. It seemed like George still had something to say, but Holley interrupted him,"George, you better go. Let's not delay Mr. Lu in seeing Sheryl anymore."

Then she dragged George to the car and reminded him,"You have a meeting to attend, right? You must hurry or else you're going to be late."

"Okay, I'll just go ahead," George said in surrender. But before he got in his car, he smiled to Charles and said,"Let's have dinner when we are both free. Give me a chance to know more about you."

"Okay. No problem." Charles agreed in a calm tone.

When George had left, Holley turned back to Charles. She asked,"Mr. Lu came here to see Sheryl, right?" "Let me tell her to see you right now," Holley added and turned to leave.

But Charles stopped her,"Hold on." Although he didn't have any special impression about this woman, he felt something familiar. He felt like he had already kown this woman before.

But no matter how much he tried to recall, he couldn't really remember so he'd better ask her.

"Is there anything I can help you with, Mr. Lu?" Holley asked when she heard Charles calling her. She looked at Charles, waiting for his reply. This man who had almost married her couldn't even recognize her.

'This is too ridiculous!' she thought.

"Do you know me?" Charles immediately asked. He looked at Holley in the eyes.

"Of course. Everybody knows your name in Y City, Mr. Lu," Holley replied promptly. Then she continued with a smile,"But I didn't know you are Sheryl's friend."

"What I meant was..." Charles paused. He contemplated for a moment before he continued,"Have we known each other personally before?" Charles was trying his best to check on Holley's every expression.

Holley's heartbeat sped up when she heard Charles' last question.

Even the photographer, Todd, praised Sheryl for doing a great job in showing her beauty in the photos. Not long after, he was able to get a lot of satisfying photos from Sheryl.

Since he was happy of Sheryl's performance during the photoshoot, Todd said to the models,"Alright, let's take a break now. Then change your clothes and prepare for the next session." While the models were taking breaks, Todd decided to transfer all the photos from his camera to his computer.

Holley went beside Charles and commented,"I couldn't believe that even after being a mother, Sher is still able to keep a perfect figure."

Charles didn't have any comments and just sat there quietly so Holley added,"Mr. Lu, just wait for a little while. They still have to shoot another set of clothes. Once they're done, I'll ask Sheryl to come and see you immediately."

She then asked someone to bring a cup of tea for Charles. A little while later, the models came back to the stage and began their second photoshoot. This time, all the models were wearing sexy and alluring underwears, showing their perfect figures in front of the camera.

Charles frowned slightly. He was worried that Sheryl would also wear the same outfit on stage later.

He felt jealous as he thought of his wife's body being exposed in front of many people.

Sue came to the stage ahead of Sheryl. She had been a model for many years now so was already accustomed to this kind of work and even showing her body in front of others. But when she saw Charles in the crowd, her brow arched.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you look so unhappy? Do you think I can get good photos with a face like that?" Todd shouted toward Sue with discontent.
