The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 1759 Apologize

"Why did you do this to me? Why?" Black asked Rex as he rushed in.

Rex frowned for he thought that Black was being disrespectful to him. "Are you really my son? Why are

you talking to your own father like that over a woman?"

"So what did you do to me?" Black glared at Rex. He had a vicious look on his face as if he was staring

down his enemy as opposed to his father.

Rex was furious at Black. He walked towards Black and slapped him across the face, unable to control

himself anymore.

Black was petrified. He had lifted his hand and was nursing his cheek with his right hand. He had never

thought that Rex could do that to him.

For years, no matter what he'd done, Rex would just scold him—never hit him.

Black grew upset upon thinking of this.

"You know Holley and I are getting married soon. Why would you do that?" Black was seething, and his

body was shaking in anger. Even though he tried to hide it, he couldn't.

"You little bastard, that bitch doesn't deserve you!"

Rex couldn't understand what Black saw in that woman. Why was he so in love with Holley? No matter

how hard Rex thought about it, he just couldn't wrap his head around it.

"You have to stop talking about her like that," Black snapped, scowling at Rex.

Rex just couldn't accept that Black really did care about Holley. He too was shaking in anger as he

lifted a finger and pointed it at Black. "Holley isn't even loyal to you. Do you really think she'll be with

you wholeheartedly after Jason has gone? Now that Jason's gone, she's going to look for someone to

replace him, and that's not you. She's never going to be with you."

Rex didn't care if Black wanted to hear that. He needed to say it because it was the truth.

"No. I don't believe that. Holley loves me. I know she loves me..." Black retorted as he struggled to

accept this view of Holley.

To Rex, Black was being unreasonable. He didn't know what to do anymore, so he asked a few of his

men to take Black to the second floor.

"Let me go!"

Black was successfully able to shake them off. Then he walked to Rex with a dark look on his face.

"Why are you meddling with my business? All these years, all I did was listen to you. Why can't you

accept the woman that I love? Jason is gone. Why can't I be with Holley? Why?"

He couldn't understand why Rex hated Holley so much. She was just a simple woman, and she wasn't

a threat to him or the Hu Family. Why couldn't he accept her?

Rex was furious upon hearing this. "Why do I meddle? Well, let me tell you. It's because I'm your

father!"

Afterward, Rex turned to his subordinates. "Take him to the second floor. Unless I tell you otherwise,

you don't let him out. Don't open the door for him."

"Why? Why are you going to lock me up?"

Black was still struggling, but Rex's subordinates didn't listen to him. After all, Rex was the boss.

"For now, you're just going to stay there,"

Rex said, pointing at Black. Then he gestured for his men to take Black upstairs.

After they all left, it was completely quiet in the living room. Rex could finally sit on the couch. Still, he

was furious.

After Rex had sat down, a servant silently approached him and offered, "Master, would you like some

tea?"

"Yes, that would be nice."

He was thirsty after fighting with Black.

The servant then served Rex's tea. After that, the servant made himself scarce, knowing that Rex was Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

in a terrible mood. After all, if Rex needed anything, he'd call for them.

Meanwhile, Black was distressed as he was forcibly taken to the second floor. Rex had ruined

everything—he was going to get married to Holley soon, and he didn't know when he was getting out of

this place. He couldn't do anything, even if he wanted to. Rex was his father, and Black had to show his

filial obedience.

After the door was locked, Black still kept knocking, but the staff guarding the door just ignored him.

After a while, Black threatened, "If you don't open this door right now, I'm kicking it open!"

"Young Master, please, don't do that. Master has ordered us to do this. We have no choice but to

follow. We can't let you out. If you get out, we might get into trouble," one of the staff answered Black.

In response, Black angrily kicked at the door. Still, it remained closed.

No matter what he did, he knew there was no chance he was getting out today. He had no choice but

to wait.

Rex sighed when he heard that Black had stopped trying to get out. He had everything planned and

Black ruined it. If Black hadn't ruined his plans, he wouldn't have locked his son up.

After thinking for a while, Rex finally called Ferry. He knew he had to tell Ferry that his plans were

ruined. If he didn't say something, Ferry might take his anger out on the Hu Family. While he wasn't

scared of Ferry at all, he still knew that he shouldn't be picking a fight with a man such as Ferry.

After a few rings, Ferry answered the call.

He knew why Rex was calling him. After all, Holley had told him everything. He didn't answer Rex's call

right away simply to irk him.

The Hu Family was powerful, but Ferry wasn't scared. If he had to, he could destroy that family in a

blip.

"Mr. Hu, I'm surprised you still remember me," Ferry said snidely.

Rex hadn't expected that Ferry would have found out this soon. He had no choice but to apologize.

"Mr. Fang, why would I forget you? How could I do that? I think you know why I'm calling." Rex decided

to get straight to the point.

"Ha! If you didn't mention it, I might have forgotten. Did you go behind my back with your son? Just to

make a fool of me?" Ferry accused.

Rex had guessed that Ferry wouldn't be too happy, but he hadn't expected that Ferry would accuse him

of purposely botching the plan.

"Mr. Fang, you got this all wrong. I'm very disappointed in my son, for he has fallen in love with Holley.

What can I do? Anyway, it was my son's fault. I need to apologize to you."

Rex didn't have a problem apologizing to Ferry. Black was his son and therefore, his weakness. That

wasn't a secret at all. Everyone knew it.
