Chapter 1010 Getting Trapped In A Dilemma
"After all the conversations, you just don''t want to be with me, do you?" A sarcastic smile was etched
on George''s face as he probed something out of Holley.
Holley''s face took on an unnatural expression when she heard George''s question. She stared at his
angry face and felt slightly flustered. She immediately walked toward him and held his hand before she
made an exnation. "George, please calm down. That is not what I mean."
She then gave him a wry smile as she continued to squeeze his hand. "What I mean is..." Her voice
faltered. Then catching his gaze, she earnestly pleaded, "We have to separate from each other
temporarily. When you gain a firm foothold in thepany, your mother will no longer have the energy
to meddle with us. When that timees, and we still want to be together, then so be it! There will be a
lot of opportunities for us by then."
Holley then triedcing their fingers together. "I know how you feel at this moment. But George, please
trust me, I even feel more heartbroken than you. Right now, the most important thing for us is not our
love. Do you understand?"
"So what you are saying is that when I gain my footing in BM Corporation, you wille back to me,
right? Is that what you exactly mean?" George stared at Holley indifferently and said in apparent
disbelief.
"Of course," Holley nodded agreeably as she gave hermitment. She then briefly added, "George, I
think you should understand how deeply I am in love with you. But given those things happened at
such hard times..." She paused eyeing him tenderly. "I feel like I am overwhelmed. I am kind of
confused of these mixed feelings. But I promise you, I will wait here until youe back and be with
me again."
"I can''t believe my ears. You still keep lying to me at this point." George curved his lips into a sardonic
smile. "Wait for me?" he probed as he watched her. "I think you only want to get the money and the
George stood there unblinking, staring hard at Holley and gauging her reactions with his cold eyes.
"Holley, never did I imagine that I would be a person who could understand you the least. You disgust
me."
"George, what do you mean by that?" Holley''s?face suddenly?got pale as if her blood had been
drained out of her. She forcefully pulled George''s hand and begged, "Please don''t believe any of your
mother''s bullshit. She only wants to separate us. So she is desperately making up some lies one after
another to defame me. But please do trust me, no matter what she ims against me, I haven''t done
those things."
"Enough!" George growled out of anger as he shook off her hand. Then he hissed, "Holley, I don''t
believe in anything you say to me. You bear in mind that there is no rtionship between us from now
on."
After throwing these words ruthlessly, George turned to leave immediately without hesitation. But
Holley quickly stopped him.
She didn''t expect that Donna could not be trusted with her words and even resorted to squealing their
deal with George.
At this moment, she couldn''t let George just leave like this—she hadn''t received the money yet. And to
a greater extent, she couldn''t afford to break up with him now. Otherwise, she wouldn''t get any benefit
in the end.
"What do you still want to do? Do you still want to cheat on me?" A faint and scornful smile twisted his
mouth as he ridiculed her.
"George, can you listen to my exnation? It just takes a few minutes," Holley pleaded in a soft voice
as she gave him a wry smile. "Yes, I admit that I asked for some money from your mother. But please
trust me. I did this because I have some difficulties," she added.

"Finally you admitted," George drawled with a hardened expression on his face. A cold smile was
stered on his lips as he inquired, "Holley, is money all that important to you in your mind? How about
our love that has existed for the past three years? Is it truly…valueless to you? I guess you find it
worthless because you have been trying the whole time to measure it up in terms of money."
"No, it is not like what you think." Holley absently shook her head while putting on an awkward smile.
Then she further exined, "I did it because I want to be suitable for you. With this money, I can boost
my pride to match you. What''s more…"
Holley paused briefly to gather her thoughts and then she continued, "Because of your affairs with S
at that time, I nearly went mad. I didn''t expect that you would do such a thing."
Holly gingerly reached out to grab George''s hand. And she held onto it tightly. Still wearing a gloomy
expression, she made an effort to sound reassuring, "George, please believe me. I soon regretted what
I had done. I want to confess to Aunt, but I could not find an appropriate time."
If this happened during the time their rtionship was at the strongest, George must have been
cheated by such words. Now that he had known Holly''s real character from Sheryl, he could easily
discern through her cunning acts. How could he fail to see this before?
"George…" Holley called out as she gave him a bitter smile. Then she pretended to be miserable.
"Your affairs with S devastated me. I think you should understand my feeling if you put yourself in
my shoes. And you should also know that I never meant to do it at that time."
George pretended to believe her and gently prompted, "Is that true?"
"Of course," Holley nodded her head firmly. She then insisted, "George, please have faith in me. I will
not betray you."
"All right. Then it is true. Now,e with me to see my mom. And you will tell her that we no longer
need her money. What we want is only to get married as soon as possible," George narrowed his
brows and sounded her out.
"George…" Her voice trailed off. Holley slightly furrowed her brows and pulled the hem of George''s
coat. Then she offered a suggestion, "Now that we got your mother''s promise by mistake, why not we
just take it? We can go away and live our own life with this money. What do you think of it?"
Shrugging her shoulders, she began to envision their future life. "I can just give up thepany. But if
we have the money, we can find our paradise, a ce with fascinating mountains and rivers. We are
both capable. More likely, we will seed."
"What do you mean by that?" George was confused, and he stared hard at her. When the meaning of
her words dawned on him, he was fuming mad. "So everything you promised me earlier are all lies?
You just want the money!"
"No, please let me finish my words." A wry smile escaped Holley. She started speaking out her n.
"What I mean is that we must pretend to break up and then get the money. And we will not have to
worry about our future together. Do you understand?"
"No way!" George adamantly refused. "All you need to do is to trust me. Even without this money, I can
assure you that you will live a good life. I am more than capable. And I can support you. And regarding
this money, we cannot ept it at all," George expressed assertively, clearly defining his attitude.
"Even if I can wait for you," she softly countered, "the child in my belly can''t." Holley dered as she
forced one corner of her mouth into a wry smile.
"What… what did you say?" George stammered. And he couldn''t believe his ears. He was stunned. He
stood motionless, stared at Holley in shock and then asked nervously, "You are pregnant? Really?"
"Yes…" Holley answered guiltily. She was so desperate that she had to tell this lie. But she had no
other choice. She was trapped in a dilemma just now. She must get that money by any means.
Holley pulled George''s hand on her belly and uttered in mock helplessness, "George, we have no other
option at this point…"
