Chapter 1047 I''ll Take Her Home
As Sheryl just finished her words, Mr. Shen suddenly turned to Holley and said, "Holley, we should go
now. You wanted to make acquaintance with my friends, right? They are waiting for us in the private
room."
Mr. Shen paused for a while and added, "It''s impolite to keep them waiting."
Holley arched a brow and considered what to do next. She chose to be with Mr. Shen not only because
he was a very influential person who enjoyed a high position in Y City, but also he had a very strong
Holley was going to take over the business of BM Corporation in Y City, so she needed to develop a
very good rapport with all the key people from the different fields that would help her run her business
smoothly.
Holley cast a nce at Sheryl briefly and hesitated for a while. Then she quickly made up her mind to
go with Mr. Shen. Holley had enough time to deal with Sheryl, but she would not get the opportunity to
meet so many influential people under the same roof. Hence, she made up her mind to leave Sheryl for
another day and meet Mr. Shen''s friends for now.
So she cast a glimpse at Sheryl and said, "I''ll let go of you today. But I will teach you a lesson one day.
Just wait and see."
"Okay, I am waiting for that day," Sheryl said in a contemptuous tone.
Holley snorted and walked up to Mr. Shen. She clung to his arm and said in a soft tone, "Let''s go Mr.
Shen." As they walked away, Holley turned towards Sheryl once more and narrowed her eyes at
Sheryl. Then she turned her face away and walked off.
Sheryl stood there marking her gestures and maintaining a nonchnt attitude towards her. Seeing
Holley''s and Mr. Shen''s retreating figures, Sheryl couldn''t help but let out a bitter smile. She shook her
head and turned all her attention to the work.
All of a sudden, Sheryl''s phone started vibration. She nced at the screen to find George''s name
shing on it. She was supposed to give George a call. But getting unnecessarily involved in a
conversation with Holley made her forget about itpletely.
He just finished dinner with S and her parents. After the dinner, S wanted to visit Sheryl, so he
gave her a call.
"Are you in the hotel, Sheryl?" George asked Sheryl in a polite manner.
"Yes," Sheryl answered. She cleared her throat and added, "In fact, I wanted to call you to ask whether
your wife has any special preference regarding the flowers in your wedding. Does she like rose or any
other flowers?"
"Me and my wife would like to see you in a while in the hotel if that''s possible. Let''s talk about it face to
face. I would also like to see the decoration process of our wedding space."
Sheryl sprang up when she heard that George wanted to visit the hotel. But before she could say
anything, George hung up the phone. Sheryl dialed his number hastily and blurted as soon as he
received the call, "Mr. Han, you''d better note today." Sheryl advised George with concern.
"Why?" George was startled to hear Sheryl and asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
"There is no big deal but..." Sheryl hesitated for a while and answered, "Holley is having dinner here.
I''m afraid you and your wife will have a conflict with her once you meet her."
George was taken aback and asked, "Why did she go here?"Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
"She came to have dinner with someone else. You have broken up with her, so she must find another
man as her back up." Sheryl then told George frankly, "She stayed here for some time. At first, I
thought she came here to cause trouble in your wedding. But I was wrong. It was just a coincidence."
Sheryl cleared her throat and continued, "You wife is pregnant now. It will not be very good for her to
meet Holley here."
"Okay, I know it." After consideration, George nodded and said, "Fine. I''ll take S to yourpany
tomorrow and talk about the details of our wedding."
"Okay." Sheryl agreed.
S was standing by George as he was talking to Sheryl. As he hung up, S asked curiously, "What
happened? Aren''t we going to the hotel?"
"No, we aren''t going there right now."
George then persuaded S, "We''ll talk with her in herpany tomorrow." Then he looked at her
affectionately and smiled, "Don''t worry. It is the only wedding in our life and I promise to make it
perfect."
But S was not appeased with his answer. She was curious. "So why can''t we go to the hotel
tonight?" S asked George with a frown.
George considered for a while and decided to tell S the truth. Now that he had decided to marry her,
he thought he''d rather be honest to her.
He looked into S''s eyes and stammered, "Because... Holley is there."
The frown disappeared from S''s face and her eyes widened. S asked George, "So... you mean
that I can''t see my wedding venue just because Holley is there, right?
George, do you think it''s a shame for you to marry me? Is it something that you don''t want others to
find out? Is it so difficult for you to take me in front of Holley? Why can''t we just stand in front of her and
tell her that we are going to get married?" S was unable to understand why George always felt
reluctant to face Holley.
"No, don''t misunderstand me, S." George gave a bitter smile and exined to S, "I didn''t mean
that. S, you are pregnant now. If we meet Holley and have a conflict, the baby in your womb could
be hurt."
S''s face softened down with the mention of the baby. George looked at S and added, "Don''t be
angry, baby. Our wedding day is close and everyone will know that you are my wife very soon."
After that, George consoled S for a long time to pacify her mood.
In the hotel, Sheryl workedte after she hung up the phone. The wedding hall was getting prepared up
slowly for the big day of George and S. Though a lot of finishing touch was still left to be added to
give it aplete shape, they were doing a good job. Seeing that the workers were tired, Sheryl
suggested them go home and rest.
The decoration of the wedding space had almost been finished. The rest of the things could be settled
after her talk with George tomorrow.
"Okay, everybody. It''s toote and you must be tired. Just go home and take rest," Sheryl said to the
workers with a smile.
They regarded Sheryl and appreciated her kindness before leaving. After the workers left, Sheryl''s
mind shifted towards Holley. It was ten in the night and Holley didn''te out of the room.
She stood outside the private room where Holley was. At first, she hesitated for a while but then
knocked on the door eventually. After a while, a dreary and drowsy voice replied, "Who is there?"
Sheryl stood there trying to hear the sound inside the room. Soon she heard the door being unlocked
from the other side. As the door opened, a fat man emerged blocking Sheryl''s vision so that she could
not see what was happening inside.
She frowned slightly and stepped aside trying to peek into the room. But the man also stepped with her
and blocked her sight.
Sheryl raised her head and looked at the man''s face. Indeed, she had never seen such a malicious
looking face ever in her life.
Sheryl could feel bile rising up her throat. "Hello? What''s up?" the man asked in a cold tone.
"Excuse me... Is Holley Ye here?" Sheryl cautiously looked at the man. She could almost hear her own
heartbeat as she braved in front of that man. However, she managed to conceal her nervousness and
pretended to be calm. "It''ste now, I''ll take her home," she said.
"Who are you?" the man asked and pushed Sheryl rudely.
"You need not know who I am." Sheryl arched a brow and shouted at the man, "Just get out of my
way."
"Who do you think you are?" The man grasped her cor and said with a smirk, "You came for Holley,
right? Why not join us to y together?"
Then the man dragged her in the room and Sheryl finally had a chance to see the condition inside the
room.
Apart from Holley and Mr. Shen, there were three men in the room. Both Holley and Mr. Shen were
drunk. Mr. Shen had fallen asleep on the sofa while Holley was still awake.
