Chapter 1004 Holley Wants To Break Up With George
Plus, Donna was really difficult to get along with. No good woulde out of having a mother-inw
like her. With all that in mind, Holley decided she would not marry George.
Filled with emotion, S sat on a stool at the Qings Bar.
She was depressed. She was supposed to be going back to Korea. However, after hearing about all of
the horrible things that Holley had done, she was so afraid that George would be hurt in the same way.
So she chose to stay in order to help George see Holley''s true colors.
But now, not only was George not understanding her, it also appeared that he would never believe in
her. She was extremely hurt.
She continued to request one beer after another, in the hopes that she could somehow drink all the
pain she was feeling away.
However, just after two sses, George showed up and shouted at her angrily, "S, what do you
think you were doing?"
He stared at her. "You promised you wouldn''t mention what happened between us and help me
persuade my mother to agree to the idea of me marrying Holley. Why, then, would you go back on your
word? You didn''t help improve the situation at all."
"George?" started S with slightly slurred speech. However, after having finished just two sses of
beer she realized she was already a little drunk. She looked at George with glossy eyes and felt as
though she was caught in a dream. To see if she could wake herself from what she could only perceive
as a definite fantasy, she tapped on either side of her face while mumbling, "No, no. This can''t be real."
Seeing that she was such a mess, George got even more angry. He grabbed her by the shoulder to
turn her around so that she could face him. He raised his voice, "Why would you do that to me?"
"Do that to you?!" Repeating his words with the same disbelief she felt when he said it, S smiled
bitterly, "George, I didn''t now, nor would I ever do something foul to you."
Still believing that the George in front of her was just a figment of her own imagination, she began to
divulge all the feelings and sorrow, which she had kept inside, because she never had the strength to
tell him. "George, after all this time, you still have no idea how much I love you. I liked you when I was
a child. Then, I was like your shadow. Wherever you went I would follow, wide eyed andpletely
enamored with you. And every time trouble seemed to find you, I tried my best to help you in any way I
could. I thought after all those things I tried to do for you, that you would love me back one day. So I
kept waiting. Waiting until both you and I grew up and hoping that we would get married. But, look, is
this what I''ve been waiting for?" S got choked up and smiled slightly with agony still evident on her
face.
"Youe to me to tell me that you are going to marry another woman. You have no idea just how
devastated and broken I was on the inside. It hurt so much that I felt my heart was torn into pieces."
Pounding lightly on her chest, she continued, "Here, George, here I felt such a terrible aching." The
sorrow reached a point where she could no longer contain it.
As the tears welled up in her eyes, she firmly pressed her hand to her chest where she could still feel
the pounding of a heart so in shambles, she thought if she were to let it go, it may disappear for good.
George stared at S in shock, realizing in that moment that he couldn''t bring himself to continue the
usation that he had initially approached with.
Just as S had said, he had no idea exactly how much she truly loved him. But, right now, the pain on
her face showed him just how much she was hurting by hisplete and utter rejection of her.
In that moment, George reached the realization that the choice he had made might have been too cruel
to S.
"You know what?" She continued through the tears streaming down her face, "Right beforeing to
have dinner with you, I was packing so that I could leave. It''s so miserable to love you and I''m so tired
of being hurt. I decided to give up." Again a bitter smile appeared on her face. "But Aunt Donna
stopped me. She told me that Holley was a liar. She''s been lying to you for so long. You can''t marry
her..."
George interrupted her and scoffed in anger, "Tell me about this even when you''re drunk? I just don''t
understand. Why do all of you hate Holley so much? She didn''t do anything wrong."
S watched him for a while and then ced a finger on her lips, whispering, "Shh, George. I''m telling
you that Holley is a murderer."
Hearing what she said, George immediately shook off her hand and fumed, "S, stop! You can''t
defame her like this. Don''t try to lie to me again."
"I''m telling the truth." Seeing that he didn''t believe her, S got a little angry. "Sheryl told Aunt Donna
and Aunt Donna told me. She didn''t tell you just because she doesn''t want you to be hurt. George,
we''re really worried about you..."
However, before she could finish her sentence, S suddenly copsed and passed out. George
nimbly received her. "S, S. Wake up."
He kept shaking her shoulder and calling her name; nevertheless, he got nothing. Uncertain of what to
do next, he suddenly heard the sound of Holley''s voice, "George, what are you doing?!" She sounded
furious.
"Holley..." George was startled and afraid of she might mistake the hug as something that was
happening between him and S. He immediately let go of S. However, as soon as he took his
hands off, she continued falling.
He had to reach for her again. Then with embarrassment, he exined to Holley, "Holley, please don''t
take this wrong. She is drunk and unconscious. I have to hold her to keep her bnce. There was
nothing going on here."
No yelling and no question, Holley just, with a stern and coolly face, stared at George. After a while,
she turned and left without a word.
Seeing her behave like this, George knew he was in great trouble. He instantly put S on the chair
and urgently said to his mother, who was standing nearby, "Mom, take care of S."
George rushed out to catch up to Holley.
Holley walked very fast and it took George quite a while to catch her. As soon as she was within reach
of him, he tightly took her hands and begged, "Holley, please don''t be mad. I swear, nothing happened
between me and S. She was drunk and I was just keeping her from falling."
"Leave me alone!" Holley was annoyed. She looked at him and responded impatiently, "George, you
don''t have to exin. I don''t care if you and S had something."
"Holley..." George thought she said that just because she was mad. But he didn''t know that Holley was
just trying to find an excuse to leave him.
"Okay. Okay. Holley, calm down." He soothed her, as he got himself closer to hug her. "I know it was all
my fault. And I know you''re angry. Just take it out on me. I will do anything to make you feel better."
Still, Holley was grave and distant, she pushed him away and questioned, "Did you and S actually
have...?" Holley didn''t finish the sentence but urged him with a questioning look to get the answer.
Obviously, it was enough for George to understand what she was asking. He paused for a while,
hesitating to tell the truth, but finally he nodded, "Yes, we did. But..."
"That''s it!" Holley sneered, then a bellow followed, "We''re breaking up!"
George was startled by her outburst. "Holley, I know what I did was wrong. But please let me exin
again, I didn''t really know how that happened. And most importantly, I don''t love her. I love you. Holley,
please, I can do anything you want me to. Just don''t leave me. I..."
"No. I am leaving you." Suddenly, she sighed, her voice full of tiredness, "Between your being with S

and your mother''s hatred for me, I can''t see a future for us. It would be the best to end things between
us before it gets ugly. At least, the memory will be beautiful."
She then gave him a painful smile. "George, you know, what I hate most is being betrayed."
