Chapter 927 Agree To Your Terms


    "George…" Holley darted an embarrassed nce at Charles. She felt her unease sticking around. She


    knew that she had caused some trouble, and George carrying on like that wouldn''t go well. She didn''t


    want Charles to talk about it. Pulling one of George''s sleeves, she murmured, "George, stop it. Let''s


    go."


    Though she kept her voice low, Charles still heard all of it. He had no intention of letting Holley leave.


    She still owed him. "Go?" His tone was full of derision. "We still have things to discuss. I can''t let you


    go just yet."


    As Charles wouldn''t let her go, she again attempted to convince him to let her leave, so that George


    wouldn''t get wind of what she had done. "Mr. Lu, I''ve said everything I wanted to say. Keeping this


    going is a giant waste of time. Go home and console your cute wife. Bet she misses you a lot."


    "Honey, what''s going on here?" George asked with a frown on his face. He was so concerned about his


    beloved Holley that even if Charles stopped, he''d still make sure she wasn''t bullied and all the facts


    woulde out.

    All he could tell was that Charles was mad at Holley, but he didn''t know why.


    "George, just pipe down. Tell you when we''re back home." Holley tried to persuade this insistent man to


    give it up. She didn''t really care about how Sheryl was now, or whether Charles would forgive her. All


    she wanted right now was to leave this ce.


    "No," Charles jeered, "I think Mr. Han would be very interested in what was going on. It''s not a small


    thing. Go on, tell him.


    Tell him how Chuck beat you. You can''t just let him go like that." Charles tried to trigger George''s


    curiosity—and his anger.


    With George around, Charles knew she wouldn''t be able to just run off so easily. He was determined to


    reveal everything to George, so that he would understand that the person behind all the trouble was his


    beloved wife, not Charles. Holley crossed the line. He had to let George know that if anything like that


    ever happened again, no one would be be able to save her, not George, not anyone else.


    "Can someone tell me what''s actually going on?" With growing impatience, George continued, "I need


    to know. What happened? Tell me."


    "Stop asking," Holley cut him off. She was hesitant to unveil the truth. How could she tell the man who


    loved her so much that she had hired Charles'' wife as a call girl for Chuck to enjoy without telling him


    who Sheryl actually was?


    "Why? What are you hiding?" There was still no answer from Holley. Obviously angry, George


    continued to press her, "I''m on your side. But I can''t defend you if I don''t know what he''s talking about."


    "I…" Holley forced a bitter smile on her face, and epted her fate.


    "Since Miss Ye won''t tell you, allow me," Charles offered. Objectively, impassively, Charles described


    the entire event to the man who was dying to know what had happened, without adding or hiding


    anything to his favor. Atst, Charles posed the question to George, "Mr. Han, if you were me, what


    would you do? I''m asking you."


    "Is this true?" George started to believe Charles'' words, but still, turned to his love to make sure this


    wasn''t a lie.


    Holley, however, just lowered her head to avoid eye contact. With her silence, she already told George


    everything he needed to know.


    Taking a deep breath, he now felt embarrassed for having confonted Charles like that.


    If he were Charles, he would have gone much further than the wronged man before him—maybe even


    kill her.


    But now… All he could do was apologize.


    Suppressing his temper that roared inside him, he turned humble and made his sincere apology. "Mr.


    Lu, I''m so sorry for the misunderstanding, but I think this was idental. I don''t think she meant to hurt


    your wife. She''s not that cruel..."


    Of course he knew; he knew that she did this deliberately and she could be quite cruel when the mood


    struck her, but he hoped to avoid Charles'' full ire. "I''m just d she''s safe."


    "Mr. Han, don''t apologize for something you didn''t do. Holley''s the one I''m mad at." As he spoke, he


    gazed coldly at the real culprit who had kept silent since Charles revealed all her evil deeds. That pair


    of angry eyes seemed to prate her entire body and look into the deepest part of her heart, which


    made her extremely uneasy.


    "Holley, what are you waiting for? Apologize to Mr. Lu. Now." George gave Holley a push as he


    instructed her. Normally he would be soft and gentle toward her, but not today. He knew that he had to


    put on a show—be harsh and strict to his love—so Charles might be satisfied.


    Reluctantly, Holley eventually whispered a insincere "sorry". "Is that okay?" asked Holley in a more


    normal tone.


    "I don''t know. Mr. Han?" Charles didn''t answer Holley directly, but threw the question to George


    instead.


    George forced a smile and kept himself bowing low as he continued to apologize. "Mr. Lu, I''m so sorry


    for what happened to you and your wife. I know Holley. She''s stubborn. Since she won''t apologize, I''ll


    do it for her. And I promise we won''t bother you or your wife again."


    Charles answered him with a cold face and silence. George could tell that Charles was still furious. He


    forced another smile and asked Charles cautiously, "Mr. Lu, what can I do to make this right?"


    "Well… Sher has a one-year contract with BM Corporation, right?" Charles asked.


    "Yeah." George nodded.


    "After this, my wife won''t be working there, regardless of how long she''s been contracted for. Make that


    happen. Then... everything will be kosher." Charlesid his terms out.


    "No!" Holley shouted before George had any chance to respond. "You can''t cancel her contract."


    "Shut up!" George shouted back to the vengeful woman. "Look at what you did! You''re getting off


    lightly."


    "George, please don''t agree to this. Don''t forget…" Holley nervously looked at George, afraid of him


    saying yes. If George agreed to this, she wouldn''t have anything on Sheryl anymore. And that was


    what her ns depended on.


    Georgepletely ignored Holley''s request, and replied firmly to Charles, "Mr. Lu, I agree to your


    terms. She''ll have to sign some papers, of course. And you won''t even need to pay the termination fee.


    Proper procedures will be undertaken as soon as possible to transfer that apartment to Mrs. Lu as well.


    I sincerely apologize for Holley''s absurd behavior."


    "You can''t do this! George!" Holley again tried to assert her power over Sheryl. She was so desperate


    and you could hear it in her voice. "Don''t forget, this is my department. I''m the department manager. I


    decide who stays and who goes."


    "Does it sound good, Mr. Lu?" George attempted to strike a deal with Charles again,pletely turning


    a deaf ear to Holley''s crazy demands.


    Charles smiled meaningfully back to George. "But… It doesn''t sound like Miss Ye likes it. And she says


    that she''s the department manager, not you."


    "Mr. Lu, don''t worry about that," George reassured Charles. "Yes she''s the department manger, but I''m


    the owner of thepany. Whatever I say, goes."


    "Sounds good." Charles nodded and agreed to this deal. "Then we''re done here."


    Delighted that Holley would finally be free of Charles'' revenge, George thanked the generous man.


    "Thank you so much, Mr. Lu."
