Chapter 937 Stay Out Of It


    "What you are talking about?" said Holley, denying Sheryl''s suspicions. She staggered back. She


    regained herposure, swallowed and resolved to drive her nemesis away. "Quit wasting my time.


    I''m swamped and don''t have time to deal with you. Just leave. You''re bugging me."


    "Fine. But remember this: If you mess with my friends, my family, or anyone around me, I swear you''ll


    pay. Understand?" said Sheryl with a stern look. She meant it and had made up her mind to fight


    against this woman regardless of the results. Having spoken these grave words, Sheryl stood up and


    stared at Holley. "I will ask Susan to cancel her contract with you ASAP. Don''t you dare try to control


    me through her again," she said scornfully.


    Just as Sheryl was about to make her way out, someone suddenly pushed open the door and walked


    in. It was George, standing by the door with a nervous expression. The two women cast a nce at


    George, and then just ignored him.


    Holley was motionless, face pale, sweat dripping from her forehead, as if all her dirty secrets were


    exposed and she was having a hard time facing it. While Sheryl looked rather impassive, she looked at


    Holley and said evenly in front of George, "Miss Ye, remember what I said. I''m not kidding."


    George, who was still standing by the door, was a bit stunned to hear those harsh words from Sheryl.


    He could not help asking, "Holley, what did you do this time?" Concern in his voice, he rushed towards


    Holley and stood before her, asking, "Didn''t I tell you that? Why you didn''t listen to me? Why are you

    fighting with her? Again, what did you do?"


    "Shut up!" Holley was pissed off and blurted this out. George was shocked and went nk for an


    instant. She was really angry at this moment. She couldn''t stand to be exposed by Sheryl, and used


    by George, her boyfriend, in front of Sheryl. This was humiliating.


    She turned her cold face to Sheryl. "I have no problem with you leaving. Hell, it might save me some


    trouble. I won''t let you take Susan, though. And if you think you can beat me, think again. I refuse to


    cancel Susan''s contract, and don''t you try to sabotage her bright future. She can be quite a sessful


    model, if you just stay out of our lives."


    Sheryl sneered, knowing that it was impossible to talk Holley into anything, so she just stopped talking.


    She turned and walked to the door. George grabbed Sheryl''s shoulder and pulled her closer. "If you run


    into any problems,e to me; I''ll do my best to help. And please excuse Holley if she said something


    offensive. She is just not mature enough to behave herself, so you''ll excuse her rudeness. Hopefully


    you won''t hold this against us." He was afraid, but not of Sheryl. It was her husband Charles who


    frightened him.


    Sheryl shook off George''s hands and said politely, "Mr. Han, you''re kind to offer. I really thank you for


    that, but you don''t need to offer any help to me." She paused for a while, and then went on to exin,


    "Mr. Han, this is between me and her. She knows what she did. This will get resolved one way or


    another. Now that she has made everything clear with me, I will naturally leave now. And don''t worry, I


    won''t ask Charles to intervene, but Mr. Han, if you want to get involved..."


    "George, what are you doing?" Holley walked up next to George and yelled at him, "This is between me


    and Sheryl. Would you please stay out of it? Stop meddling. If you get in my way, I''ll do more than just


    being rude to you. I''m not kidding. Do you hear me?"


    Looking at Holley''s angry face, George was speechless for a long while. For one thing, he was being


    nice to Sheryl; for another, he was trying to make things easier. Maybe, if he was nice to her, he could


    get both of them to calm down. Yet now he realized he might have crossed the line. It was not a matter


    he should meddle in. Afterwards, Sheryl went straight to HR to finalize the dissolution of the contract.


    After she was all done, she walked out of thepany and felt as if a great burden had been lifted


    from her.


    George asked Holley what happened between her and Sheryl just now. He still wanted to know, even if


    he couldn''t help them. However, Holley refused to tell him.


    She grew impatient over George''s nosiness and said to him, "Stay out of it, George. It''s none of your


    business. Besides, Sheryl also asked you to not get involved. What do you care? So leave me alone


    now."


    "How could I possibly not care?" George knitted his eyebrows and looked at Holley, saying, "I might


    stay out of it, but will Charles? Charles loves Sheryl. He won''t allow her to get hurt. I don''t want him


    getting involved. You remember my promise to you? I promised you revenge. This will happen. Why


    don''t you believe in me?"


    "Believe in you?" Holley scolded him in disdain, "George, I did believe in you. That was why I told you


    everything. But since when have you done anything for me? Tell me, all this time, what on earth you


    have done for me? Do you know how hard it was for me to get Sheryl to work here? And how much


    effort did it took to get her under me. But you simply canceled the contract with her so that she could


    get away. Just now, you even tried to be nice to her and said you''d do your best to help her, right?


    That''s what you have done to help me? And you still expect me to believe in you?"


    Looking grieved and gloomy at this time, she said coldly to the man, "George, from now on, you don''t


    have to care about this matter. It''s between me and Sheryl. I''ll take care of it myself."


    She was really disappointed in the man. And thinking of what he said to Sheryl, she bit her lip and


    suppressed her mes of fury. She walked up to him and said bitterly, "Stay out of this, and don''t try to


    stop me. Because nobody, even you, can stop me from getting revenge. I told you this when we got


    closer. You feel me?"


    "But..." George wanted to argue, but he didn''t know what to say to make her see things his way. He


    frowned, thinking that over all these years being with Holley, he had tried several times to persuade her


    into ignoring Sheryl and stopping her pursuit of vengeance.


    He had always believed there were a lot of things worth doing in life, and there was no need to waste


    time on resentment and grudges. Why dwell on the bad, instead of just making the future better?


    But whenever he mentioned this to Holley and shared his own ideas, she would respond intensely and


    get irritated, like a hedgehog. He was afraid to bring it up again and just kept quiet.


    He thought that maybe she shouldn''t be like that, but he didn''t tell her that.


    When she was working there, he got to know Sheryl and found that she was not the kind of person


    Holley thought she was. He was more certain that there might be some misunderstanding between the


    two women. Therefore, the idea of helping them reconcile came back to him.


    Deep down, he really wished Holley to stop endlessly going over the past and just let it go. He knew


    that it would keep dragging her down if she let it.


    "I know what you want to say," Holley said, "but my mind''s made up." Holley was tired of going over this


    since she was aware that George could do nothing for her. Again, she said to him firmly, "I am not


    asking you to help me, nor do I want your help, but I just want you to stay out of it. Get it?"


    Looking at Holley''s resolute expression, George wanted to say something but thought better of it and


    closed his mouth. He sighed, and finally said, "All right, Holley, since you made up your mind, I can''t


    stop you, but I have one more piece of advice for you. Remember that to err is human, to forgive,


    divine. Try to forgive others, forget about the past, and give yourself a break. Don''t live in the past,


    because tomorrow is a better day. Do you get that? By the way, Mom called and asked us out to dinner


    tonight. If you still love me,e with me, please."


    Holley was shocked for a moment. She had always been with George, but she did not know exactly


    when he started talking to his mother, Donna, again.


    She cast a look at George, finally nodded her head and said, "Okay, I''ll go with you." Even if she didn''t


    want to have dinner with George''s mother, she knew she had to go. That was what a girlfriend should


    do.


    Hearing Holley''s consent, George felt relieved and wore a smile on his face. He looked at her and went


    on to say, "That''s great. I''ll leave now and be back to pick you upter."


    Holley nodded gently. Neither of them said anything about Sheryl anymore.


    When it was almost quitting time, George came to pick up Holley. He saw that she was in a set of


    business attire and thought she looked too formal for a visit with his mother, so he said, "Would you like


    to go back and change your clothes?"


    As a matter of fact, his mother Donna didn''t like Holley in charge of too many things in thepany.


    Considering this, George thought it might be better for Holley to change into more casual clothes so


    she would have a better time during dinner with his mother. He was thinking of getting his mother''s


    permission if they were to get married.


    "I don''t think there''s anything wrong with my business wear," said Holley, not thinking about it. She did


    not consider it a big deal. It was only a family dinner with George''s mother. Why should she bother to


    change her clothes? She liked herself in business wear, making her look more vigorous and


    experienced as a working woman.


    Hearing that, George furrowed his brows. Since Holley was not willing to change her clothes, he didn''t


    insist anymore.


    When they got into the car, he spoke to Holley on the way. "My mom bought a house in Y City recently,


    and she just moved in a few days ago. I bought her some housewarming gifts—they''re in the trunk.


    Would you like to give them to her? My mom will be delighted to get gifts from you."


    "Bought a house?" asked Holley with her eyebrows knitted, wondering what his mother intended to do


    in Y City. "What do you mean by that? Will she be here long?"


    "Holley..." George frowned, not pleased with her words. Even though he knew Holley did not have a


    great rtionship with his mother, he just couldn''t take it for granted that she showed no respect to his


    mother. He had to draw the line somewhere.
