His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1303 Offence

Charles was furious at this moment. Holley's frivolous behavior was a disgusting offence in his eyes.

"Get out!" He completely abandoned the calm composure he was trying to maintain.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu. I... I just couldn't help myself. You have to understand." Holley's eyes slowly filled

with tears, making her appear fragile, but beautiful.

But Charles was not an ordinary man. Avoiding her eyes, he looked straight at the door and repeated,

"Get out or I'll call the security guard."

Hearing Charles' tone, Holley began to panic. Seeing him act so coldly, she felt extremely angry and

helpless. All she could do was quickly leave the office.

Disturbed by Holley's behavior, Charles couldn't turn his attention back on his work. He felt bored and

depressed as he looked at the documents on his desk.

Shaking his head in frustration, he immediately called his subordinate and asked, "Mr. Zhao, how's the

progress of our project with Tarsan Corporation?"

Charles hoped that the project could be completed in a hurry and that their cooperation with Tarsan

Corporation would be terminated as soon as possible. The longer he was affiliated with Holley, the

more disgusted he would feel.

"Mr. Lu, the cooperation project is going smoothly. It's estimated that it will be finished soon," the man

responded with trepidation. Upon receiving Charles' call, he was immediately afraid he had done

something wrong and Charles was calling to criticize him.

"Mr. Zhao, arrange for our staff to work overtime so that the project can be finished as soon as

possible. When the project is finished, I'll double their bonuses."

"Okay. Mr. Lu, don't worry. We'll complete this project soon and we will meet your expectation," the man

promised. He wanted to rush to Charles' office just to show him how determined he was.

"Okay, thank you. I'm also aware that our staff are really working hard. It's not easy for any of us, but

this project needs to be finished as soon as possible. I hope you can truly pay more attention to it."

Hearing his promise, Charles relaxed a little bit. As long as Shining Company sped up, Tarsan

Corporation wouldn't dare fall behind.

"Okay. I'll make it happen," the man responded.

After leaving Charles' office, Holley didn't immediately go downstairs. Instead, not wanting anyone to

see her in such a messy state, she had rushed to the washroom.

She wiped away her tears and mended her makeup. After calming herself down and suppressing all

traces of weakness, she emerged from the washroom and made her way downstairs. She left Shining

Company with the same confident demeanour as when she came in.

'I won't give up! Charles will be mine sooner or later, ' Holley thought to herself.

Suddenly, she realized Black was calling her again. While she answered the phone this time, she only

said a few words before hanging up in a hurry.

Confused by the abrupt phone call, Black came to the conclusion that Holley was hiding something

from him. He decided that he must find out what was currently going on with her. No matter how much

he loved Holley, he couldn't stand being kept in the dark like this and didn't want to break up with her in

such an ambiguous way.

Black arrived at Holley's residence early the next morning in a car that he'd never driven before,

wanting to be inconspicuous. As he waited in the car, the sun began to shine brightly. After a long time,

he finally saw Holley's car emerge from behind the gate.

Quickly starting his car, Black began to follow her, keeping a short distance between their two vehicles.

Suddenly it dawned on Black that Holley was heading to Tarsan Corporation. Was she going to work

like usual today?

Putting his car into park, Black waited outside the building as Holley entered Tarsan Corporation. As

the minutes passed, he began to wonder whether she work all day. Should he continue to follow her?

After entering the corporation, Holley began looking over and processing the documents that had been

accumulating over the past few days. When she was done, she decided to call Charles. To her

surprise, he didn't answer her call no matter how many times she called.

How was she going to see Charles? Recently, Charles had been troubled by both the company and his

family. In order to replace Sheryl and steal his heart, Holley would need to seize every opportunity to

spend time with him. But now he wasn't even answering her calls.

Suddenly, an idea popped into Holley's head.

She devised a text message to Charles saying, "Mr. Lu, aren't you curious as to how the news about

Sheryl committing a crime got leaked? I have some ideas. Would you be interested in hearing them?"

After pressing "send" on her phone, Holley began patiently waiting for Charles' response.

Things unfolded as Holley expected they would. In less than half a minute, her phone began to ring.

Holley answered the phone. "Hello, Mr. Lu."

"Holley, what do you know about the leak? Who on earth was the source of those rumors?" Charles

asked eagerly.

"Relax, Mr. Lu. I don't think I'll be able to explain it to you over the phone. How about we find a place to

meet and talk about it?" Taking a sip of her coffee, Holley smiled to herself proudly.

However, it was obvious to Charles that Holley had ulterior motives in meeting with him. Maybe this

was just an excuse to see him, but if she truly had clues about the leak, then he needed to find out.

Charles didn't want to miss out on any opportunity of finding the truth about what happened.

"Okay. Where are we going to meet?" Charles asked calmly.

"It's almost noon. How about I come to you? Then we can have a meal near Shining Company."

"Okay."

Holley hung up the phone, satisfied. Of course, the clues she had mentioned were just an excuse to

meet Charles. Moreover, she was the one who leaked the news. She couldn't betray herself!

But Charles was so anxious for clues. It would be easy to fabricate some vague information for him.

'He'll eat it right up, ' Holley thought to herself, grinning.

Having waited outside Tarsan Corporation all morning for Holley to emerge, Black finally saw her leave

the building.

When Holley drove by his car, Black swiftly pretended to be on the phone, his head sharply tilted away

from the window. After she had passed, he was quick to follow her again.

Half an hour later, Holley stopped at the entrance of Shining Company. But, instead of getting out, she

remained seated behind the wheel.

Stopping his car a safe distance away from Holley's, Black watched in puzzlement. He had been

anxious about Holley going out so frequently these days. Was she really just doing business with thisBelonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

company the whole time?

Continuing to ponder this, Black stayed in the car and watched Holley. Finally, he saw Holley make a

phone call before getting out of her car.
