The Substitute Bride

Chapter 1761 There Was No Free Lunch

Holley knew that if she didn't have Ferry on her side, then Rex wouldn't have a reason to control himself around her anymore. He would stop at nothing to take her down.

She knew how much Rex cared about Black. After what happened yesterday, Rex must be furious at her. Rex probably thought that as long as he killed Holley, no one could ever hurt his dear son again. Holley would have done the same thing if her son got treated this way.

As she thought of this, she shook her head and begged Ferry, "Please, I'm begging you. I don't want to die yet. I know the Hu family won't let me get away that easily..."

"Well, I can help you with that, but what do I get in return?"

Ferry was a businessman. He wouldn't do anything if he didn't get something in return. Holley knew that very well. Before she arrived, she had already thought of a plan. She took a deep breath and smiled at Ferry. "Please, Ferry. I don't want to die. I will do everything you ask me to do!"

"What can you do?" Ferry sneered at Holley.

Holley knew that Ferry looked down on her. After all, he was so powerful that he didn't need Holley to help him do anything.

"Everything!"

Holley was desperately trying to save her life, so she promised him anything just to convince him to spare her life.

"Holley, you're completely worthless to me!" Ferry sneered.

Obviously, Holley wouldn't get what she wanted.

She was at Ferry's mercy. What could she do about that?

Holley fell silent as Ferry questioned her. She looked into his eyes, hoping that he would change his mind and save her.

"What else do you think I could possibly need?" Ferry asked, taunting Holley.

Holly fell on her knees upon hearing this. He was right. He had everything. She couldn't offer anything to Ferry that he didn't already have.

Her eyes welled up at the thought of this. Soon, tears were streaming down her face. She shook her head and pleaded, "Please, just help me. I'm begging you."

"Holley, do you really think I'm capable of feeling sorry for

was very upset. She didn't expect that Holley would call her.

She angrily threw her phone away, refusing to take the call. She knew why Holley was calling her, so she just ignored it to save herself the trouble.

But Holley was persistent. She kept calling Leila, and it irritated Leila until she decided to answer the call. Leila asked impatiently, "What? What's wrong? Why are you calling me? It's so annoying! I've already told you the price. Just be patient and wait."

"Leila, what happened? Why are you in a bad mood? We're friends. Isn't it normal that I call you?" Holley asked, sounding concerned.

"I have no time for your nonsense. What are you calling me for? Just say it!" Leila snapped, furrowing her brows.

Holley didn't expect that Leila would be so rude to her. She had such bad luck! Whatever Holley did, it never went smoothly. As she thought this over, she realized the only person who could make Leila this upset was Charles. She planned to use that.

"Nothing. I was just thinking how we haven't seen each other in so long. I miss you. How about we have lunch together? My treat!" Holley excitedly suggested.

Leila's face turned gloomy, wondering why Holley was being so nice. For some reason, she knew that Holley had an underlying motive. There was no such thing as a free lunch. Holley must be up to something.
