Chapter 1005 Donna's Confusion

Name:The Substitute Bride Author:Mi Lu
"No, this is not right." George didn't take his eyes off Holley. He asked her anxiously, "Something has happened that you are not telling me. Was it Mom? What was she talking to you in private? Did she threaten you?"

"Don't ask me more..." Holley choked. She was at a loss for words. She looked at George with a wry smile and let out a deep sigh. The expression on her face was a silent reply to his question. She tried her best and finally said in a low broken voice, "George, whatever your mom has done, she has done for your own good. That's undeniable and you should accept it. I believe you should find another girl. You deserve someone better, like Sula. She is a nice girl. You should cherish her."

She turned around after she had said that. She wanted to leave as soon as possible. But before she could leave, George frantically stretched out his hands and grabbed Holley's arm tightly from behind. He was furious about his mom after he heard Holley's words. He asked her with a very look, "Stay right here. Before I agree to let you go, you have to tell me the truth. What did my mom say to you?"

"I told you to stop this. Why do you keep asking me about it? Why do you want to know?" Holley was mad at him now and she yelled, "I am not worthy of you! I don't deserve to marry you. You are the noble prince of your family, and I am just a nobody. That's it! Are you happy now?"

"What's wrong with you?" George asked, as he held her tightly. He pulled Holley into his arms, looked into her eyes with all the love in the world and pleaded, "Holley, you have to tell me the truth. Did my mom say something to you? If that is true, I will go and talk to her in person right now." Saying that, he drew his arms away from her and kissed Holley on her forehead. After that, he walked away from her, intending to talk to his mother.

"Please don't!" Holley panicked when she saw George walk away from her in anger. Her anxiety kicked in and she chased after him, calling out for him to stop. Finally, she caught up to him and grabbed his hand. She cried, "Please calm yourself down, George. Listen to me! We've faced too many problems since the time we met. Too many barriers have been getting in the way of our love—the impassable gap in our origins, your mother's disapproval. Besides that, there's Sula. Unlike me, she is the perfect match for you in every way. She was born in a wealthy family. And now that you have slept with her, you should be responsible for her future. Or else, her family won't let you get away with it."

"I don't care." George looked into her eyes. He continued with a serious look, "Holley, I've told you this before—I need you by my side for the rest of my life. As long as I am with you, I will be fearless, n

ive a mundane life where you arrange everything for me and guide me to a place where you want me to reach. She has taught me what life is. It's supposed to be wonderful and free. If you hate her because she changed me into another person, then you are completely wrong. You shouldn't be hating her. I am the one you should hate!"

George smirked at her with a satisfied look.

"You have no idea what you are talking about!" Donna let out a chilling laughter. It was undeniable that Holley had shown him some love. However, she still chose money instead of George today, which proved without any doubt that to her, George was just a good source of income. He wasn't as important to her as he thought.

Unfortunately, her silly son still thought that she loved him more than anything else and regarded that woman as his true love. She felt that this whole situation was absurd.

The only reason why Donna was unwilling to tell her son the truth about Holley's real identity was because she didn't want to discredit Holley's image in George's mind. She preferred to be hated by him, rather than watch him go through the pain of knowing that he had been betrayed by the woman he loved so much.

"You are the one who doesn't know anything at all!" George couldn't contain his growing anger and he burst out, "You don't have the faintest idea about how deeply I love her. All you can think about is looking for a woman who is both socially and financially fit for this family, which may even make me spend the rest of my life with someone I don't love at all. You even made ridiculous excuses claiming that Holley is a murderer, just to make me give up on her and choose Sula. You clearly don't know what true love means."

"What did you just say?" Donna was shocked by his words. She thought that she might have heard him wrong.
