The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 158

"Isla, long time no see! I've missed you." Becky continued with a little smile, "We haven't seen each other for years. How about... we find a place? Then we can sit down and have a talk."

Becky didn't curse Isla, but instead, she showed her good manners to her as Joanna was there.

She proposed to go outside for two reasons: firstly she knew that Isla wouldn't agree; secondly... Joanna would think that she was a sensible woman.

Having been filled in on what Becky had done to her, Isla refused Becky's proposal immediately. She replied with a sneer, "Becky, just stay here and tell me what you want to say. You and I... I did nothing dirty or wrong to you, so you can say what you want here."

Isla gave Joanna a curious glance, as she had no idea who this elder woman was. However, she had a hunch that she was an important person. She didn't know why Becky had brought her to her company.

Isla stared at Becky coldly and thought, 'This girl was my favorite cousin, a person I trusted unconditionally. But, Becky... ruined all of this.'

"Becky, just get straight to the point. I have a lot of work to deal with, so don't waste my time." Isla had thought that she could treat Becky in an emotionless manner, but she failed. She was still hurt at the thought of what had happened between them.

'We used to be intimate cousins, but now we are hostile to each other. All of this is because of Aron. It's not so bad after all. I finally got to know what kind of person she really is.'

Becky responded, looking as pathetic as she could, "Isla, when did we... become so distant? Do you remember when we..."

Isla interrupted decidedly, "I remember nothing." She only remembered that scene from four years ago. Becky knelt down with a pathetic look on her face and said that she couldn't help sleeping with Aron and begged her to leave Aron forever.

When she had been told this, she was in despair. Since that day on, she resolved to break up with Aron, and stay away from him.

Now she saw Becky with that expression again.

"Isla, then I will tell you my purpose for coming here. I came here to ask you to stay away from Aron." 'Now that Isla doesn't want to have a chit-chat, I will stop pretending to be nice. After all, it's just a show for Joanna. The more aggressive Isla acts, the weaker I look in Joanna's eyes, ' she thought complacently.

"Isla, you are pretty and have a successful career. You can date any man you want. Unlike you, I have stayed with Aron and everything I have done in the past four years was for him. I felt happy for him when he was pleasant, and felt sad when he was unhappy. He is my everything. I can't live without him. Have some mercy and give Aron back to me."

Becky took two steps forward and grabbed Isla by the hand. She looked at Isla with her puppy dog eyes and said to her, "Isla, I have always yielded to you since we were little girls. I gave you everything as long as you wanted it, including dresses and toys. But Aron is different. Please, just this one time. Could you make a concession for me?
